The main objectives are to introduce mathematical models and
optimization methods that permit a systematic minimization of the
energy consumption of vehicle propulsion systems.

In USA 400 to 800 cars per 1000 inhabitants. Countries such as
China (1.3 billion inhabitants) or India (1.1 billion inhabitants ) in
the year 2007 have car densities of around 30 cars per 1000
inhabitants.

”The demand for personal transportation increases with the

economic possibilities of a society.”

The energy is converted to an
energy carrier that is suitable for
on-board storage. This ”fuel” is
then converted by the propulsion
system to mechanical energy
that, in part, may be stored as
kinetic or potential energy in
the vehicle. The third energy
transformation is determined by
the vehicle parameters and the
driving profile. In this step, the
mechanical energy produced in
the second conversion step is
ultimately dissipated to thermal
energy that is deposited to the
ambient.

Materials with a high carbon/hydrogen ratio (e.g., coal) are solid.
The ratio is useful as a preliminary indication of the hydrogen
quantity needed to convert the hydrocarbon to a gas and/or liquid.
