Maintaining sufficient charge during the duration of travel along with the time required to recharge the vehicle are major concerns for electric vehicle (EV) owners. This project focuses on in-motion, inductive power transfer (IPT) embedded in roadways to ensure charge duration and replace stationary...
Inductive power transfer systems (IPTS) embedded in concrete pavement panels allow EVs to charge their batteries while in motion. Four prototype concrete slabs were constructed and monitored during high-cycle fatigue loading. After the fatigue tests, each slab was subjected to a static load until failure....
Current electric vehicles (EVs) suffer from several drawbacks that prevent widespread public acceptance. Inductive power transfer systems (IPTS) seek to address range and battery life issues by allowing EVs to charge while in transit. This advancement would allow future infrastructure to meet rising...
