Abstract

This chapter explains the basics of the electric wheel (EW) or in-wheel electric motor and their implementation in transportation infrastructures. Electric wheel can offer enhanced performance in terms of stability, energy efficiency, and reliability. Discussions on the basics of EW are presented in this chapter, including basic design, components, regenerative braking system, and the integration within EV (electric vehicle). The use of the electric wheel will enhance the function of regenerative braking connected to each EW. Related concepts and technologies are explained by a review of regenerative braking system techniques. Electric wheel design and related components are illustrated with a related research review, which provides a good understanding of the development of the electric wheel. In order to understand the potential implementation of electric wheel, different configurations of electric wheels are explained with a case study design in hybrid ways to maximize the overall performance of EV. Practical implementations of the electric wheel can be achieved with retrofitting the electric wheels in existing internal combustion vehicles or EVs.
