Battery Pack Integration in a Vehicular Environment
Modern vehicles have many systems and a simplistic view would be to consider each of these systems as separate and independent. However, as we strive for more and more energy efficiencies, particularly when it comes to hybrid and electric vehicles, it becomes more important to manage power and energy storage by making sure the systems are integrated with each other and work together in the best possible way.

The current interest in the development of EV and HEV vehicles has led to considerable discussion about the relative merits of chassis or hub mounted motors. Much of the debate has been concerned with issues of vehicle package, cost and driveline efficiency, however, the effect on vehicle dynamics has also emerged as a key factor, with apparently conflicting attributes making the advantage of one layout over the other difficult to define.
