This PhD programme will open a new paradigm for high-performance and high-reliability traction systems for electric vehicles. In the program, new machine structure will be designed to improve the efficiency of the motor. Simultaneously, the corresponding control algorithms (sliding mode, model predictive and data-driven algorithms, etc.) will be developed and investigated. In terms of the vehicle safety improvement, based on the standard “United Nation Vehicle Regulation ECE R94”, novel technologies concerning crash safety problems will be developed and applied to the new-generation electric vehicles.
Entry requirements:
Candidates must have (or expect to obtain) a minimum of a UK upper second class honours degree (2.1) or equivalent in Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics or a related subject.
How to apply:
Applicants should apply via the University’s online application system at https://www.york.ac.uk/study/postgraduate-research/apply/. Please read the application guidance first so that you understand the various steps in the application process.
