Schwietert, T.K. (author)Solid-state batteries have the promise to outperformconventional Li-ion batteries. Solid electrolytes are safer, as the solids used are generally not combustible, and especially if Li-metal anodes are enabled, higher energy densities can be obtained. However, solidstate batteries still have challenges to overcome. In this thesis the origins of...doctoral thesis 2022

Huber, Gerhard (author), Bogenberger, Klaus (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author)The comparably low driving ranges of battery electric vehicles (BEV) cause time-consuming recharging stops if long distances have to be covered. Thus, navigation systems not only have to compute routes leading from the BEV's current position to the destination, but also to plan recharging stops. This type of routing problem is often modeled...journal article 2022

Sharif Azadeh, S. (author), Vester, J. (author), Maknoon, M.Y. (author)In this paper, we evaluate the cost of the electrification of an existing bus network. We propose a family of bi-objective mathematical models to demonstrate the trade-off between strategic (i.e., battery sizing and the locations of charging stations) and operational decisions (i.e., battery degradation). The proposed mathematical models...journal article 2022
