Time histories of the main collisional parameters are presented,improvements of the frame are partially made according to simulation results. Collisional simulationof the tubular frame alone indicates that, such new type of bodywork for sedan car is of goodpotentialities to meet the collision safety regulations.展开更多

The reason of this choice resides in the opportunity to reduce weight and dimension, in comparison to a traditional In- ternal Combustion Engine (ICE). It’s not possible to use the GT engine directly for the vehicle traction, so the UDR1 HS configuration shows the GT set connected with the electric generator only. The result is that the traction is pure electric. Many efforts are spent in the definition of a generic scientific method to define the correct ratio HD (the Hybridization Degree) between the installed power of the battery pack and that of the GT electric generator which simultaneously guarantee the main life for the battery package and the ca- pacity of the vehicle to complete a common mission (about 15 km - 30 km) without lack of energy or stop. This paper reports all studies carried out and finally proposes a possible configuration (weight distribution, VMU logic control, GT dimensions and power rate, battery package characteristics and so on) for mid term solution in the Italian transport system.展开更多

Ltd., and also a manufacturer of the Charade sedan cars of economy model. It is one of China’s four major sedan car production bases. In 1995, it formed a production capacity of 150 thousand sedan cars. The Charade sedan cars still occupy 60 percent market share of the national taxi market. The Tianjin Mini-Automobile Factory now has a total staff of 3,914. It covers an ama of 429,000 square metres,展开更多
