Light Electric Vehicles (LEVs) are alternative transportation solutions that provide cost effective, noiseless andx000D
pollution free, eco-friendly solution for urban transportations. In the global market, 200 million electricx000D
bicycles are used today and forecasted to grow to 2 billion by 2050. The technology development also has tox000D
accelerate to scale up this expanding market requirements. Therefore, this research focuses on to develop anx000D
advancement in the Powertrain technology using the holistic approach for designing a novel Powertrain systemx000D
for future light electric vehicles, mainly e-bike's (extended to wheelchairs, cargo bikes, mountain bikes andx000D
micro mobility scooters configurations).x000D
The proposed research will train one Ph.D., one M.A.Sc., one undergraduate students and a research assistant.x000D
The project consists of developing key components of propulsion systems based on research and developmentx000D
of new technologies. Components of the power train will include novel drive unit based on the slot-lessx000D
Halbach permanent magnet array which will provide high torque output ability at relatively low operationalx000D
velocity, inverter, rechargeable energy storage systems (RESS) with new resonant inductive power transferx000D
system for wireless charging, battery management systems, consoles, frame and articulating mechanisms, andx000D
displays. Industry standards and regulatory requirements shall be considered in the development of these lightx000D
vehicle powertrains. The designs will also be inclusive of international standards.x000D
This project will help Bionx International Inc. to design and develop next generation E-bikes., which will bex000D
lighter, reliable, and more efficient than those on the market today. BionX can benefit greatly from thisx000D
research project and expand its business to extend it to wheelchairs, cargo bikes, mountain bikes and microx000D
mobility scooters configurations to expand its business and product lines. Furthermore, the developedx000D
