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
