Advanced Thermal Manikin for Thermal Comfort Assessment in Vehicles and Buildings

Dragos Daniel Ion-Guta et al.

Summary: This paper presents a recently designed and created thermal manikin for assessing thermal comfort in vehicles, buildings, and other transient thermal environments. The thermal manikin comprises 79 superficial zones with independent neuro-fuzzy temperature regulation, allowing for the prediction of user comfort at different temperatures.

Optimal Energy Management for Hybrid Electric Vehicles Based on Dynamic Programming and Receding Horizon

Pierpaolo Polverino et al.

Summary: The optimization of energy management in HEVs using dynamic programming and receding horizon approaches can lead to a significant reduction in fuel consumption. By evaluating fuel consumption under different control features, the results show a fuel consumption reduction comparable to that of the full horizon approach, with a maximum drift from optimal consumption of less than 10%.
