This second workshop is the closing event of our project entitled "Basic research for the development of hybrid and electric vehicles" running at the Research Centre for Vehicle Industry of Széchenyi István University, Győr, Hungary under the grant TÁMOP-4.2.2.A-11/1/KONV-2012-0012.

In this project we perform research to solve some of the challenges of green vehicles faced by modern society. More specifically, the conference themes are focused on design and the development of electric motors for vehicles.

The engineering goals cannot be achieved without using the methods of mathematical modelling, computer simulation, optimization and control, which combined have recently become one of the key enabling technologies of the industry. Within the themes the scientific background and application of this technology concerning electric vehicles should be presented. In order to support this aim and assist young and new researchers of the fields, some tutorials have been organized as part of the workshop.

Lectures given by keynote speakers will be 40 minutes long and 20 minutes long by further invited speakers.

Main topics:

• Green Vehicle concepts
• Design, simulation and optimization of PMS motors for vehicles
• Invariant sets for dynamical systems 
• Vehicle dynamics control
• Driveline optimization for vehicles
