TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of thermal management of catalysts, which aims to significantly reduce the light-off time and emission concentrations through appropriate heating methods, such as burners, reformers and electrically heated catalysts.

TL;DR: The design and control methods to improve the energy efficiency of electric machines for EVs are reviewed, including driving cycle based design methods of traction motors, for energy consumption reduction in real operating conditions; and novel machine topologies providing potential efficiency benefits.

TL;DR: This paper provides optimal solutions obtained from DP for a variety of trip times, which are compared with simple intuitive speed profiles, to address the gap in realistic analysis of optimal driving profiles for EVs.

TL;DR: In this article, a hybridized dual-clutch transmission with a single dry clutches and an electric motor is proposed for the same vehicle, which reduces fuel consumption by 9% with respect to the DCT.

TL;DR: The Horizon 2020 project TrustVehicle aims at investigating critical scenarios, especially in mixed traffic situations and under harsh weather conditions, and at improving the trustworthiness and availability of L3AD functionalities through a user-centric approach.
