The global environmental pollution issue and global warming caused by internal combustion engines (ICE) have prompted automotive manufacturers to pioneer the development of emission-free or pure electric vehicles. The Indian government declared that all ICE cars will be replaced by electric vehicles by 2030. Thus, after 2030, ICE vehicle scrapping will be prevented by retrofitting. Transforming traditional cars into electric vehicles in Indian markets reduces emissions and enhances sustainability. This work aims to transform the Maruti Suzuki Zen petrol car into a fully electric vehicle while keeping its pristine transmission system with an onboard charging system. During the fieldwork, all unnecessary components of the ICE are removed to transform it into an electric vehicle. The E Zen’s maximum speed, gradeability, and driving range on both level and sloping roads were also examined. The performance was assessed using a 72 V, 144 Ah lithium-ion battery pack and an AC induction motor

After the defected gears are determined, a novel method, combined with wavelet packet decomposition, complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise and singular value decomposition, is put forward. It is utilized to exclude disturbance of irrelevant signals that generated by the defect gears. Firstly, wavelet packet decomposition is used to extract the defect signals and retain original features. The processed signal is called S1 and the irrelevant frequency bands could be filtered out. Secondly, complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise decomposes S1 into a series of intrinsic modal functions. The correlations between S1 and intrinsic modal functions are analyzed. The intrinsic modal functions that are highly correlated with S1 are screened out and reconstructed into a new signal, called S2. The disturbance of irrelevant signals could be further filtered out, but some of them still disturb the judgement. Thirdly, singular value

Lithium-ion batteries are prone to thermal failures under extreme conditions, leading to thermal runaway and safety risks such as fire or explosion. Therefore, effective temperature prediction and diagnosis are crucial. This paper proposes a thermal fault diagnosis method based on the Informer time series model. By extracting temperature-related features and conducting correlation analysis, a 9-dimensional input parameter matrix is constructed. Experimental results show that the model can maintain an absolute temperature prediction error within 0.5°C when predicting 10 seconds in advance, with higher accuracy than the LSTM model. Additionally, a three-level warning mechanism based on the forgetting coefficient further enhances diagnostic accuracy. Validation using test data and real vehicle data demonstrates that this method can efficiently diagnose and locate thermal faults in batteries, with low computational costs, making it suitable for online applications.
