Electric Drive System Design for Electric Vehicles

This book bridges the gap between specialized research on EV electric drive system design principles and developing industry-driven solutions. It addresses best practices on ensuring the performance and reliability of EV electric drive systems, including battery, motor, and power electronic components.

Dr. Yunqi Zheng has 20 years’ experience with system integration, design, and thermal/mechanical/electromagnetic design optimization on electric drive systems. Currently, Dr. Zheng is a lead system engineer working on electric drive systems in Honeywell Aerospace Technologies, USA. She holds a PhD/MSc in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland College Park, USA and an MSc/BS in Engineering Mechanics from Tsinghua University, China. Dr. Zheng was a core technical member contributing to the success of in-house power electronics design for an EV start-up. She was also one of the lead engineers for an ultra-small EV on-board charger system prototype. Previously, Dr. Zheng was with GM Electrification working on mechanical design/analysis and system integration for next Gen power inverter systems. She holds several patents and has written several publications.
