Master Thesis: Data-Driven Optimization of Predictive Engine Stop/Start

Bygg, teknik och hantverk · Bygg- och industriteknik · Maskinteknik

I korthet

Master's students in Automotive Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Control Engineering, Applied Physics, or Data Science are sought for a temporary thesis project in Gothenburg, Sweden. The project focuses on data-driven optimization of the Predictive Engine Stop/Start (PESS) system for heavy-duty vehicles, using real-world data to improve fuel efficiency and expand utilization. Responsibilities include data analysis, KPI development, and identifying improvement opportunities.

Ansvarsområden

  • Analyze customer vehicle data and PESS performance.
  • Develop relevant KPIs and visualizations using tools such as Python, MATLAB and/or Power BI.
  • Analyze factors affecting PESS utilization, such as vehicle load (GCW), ambient temperature, driving conditions, drive modes and system inhibitions.
  • Identify customer applications and operating conditions with high PESS potential but low actual utilization.
  • Quantify lost PESS opportunities and their potential impact on fuel savings.
  • Identify and evaluate technical concepts that could extend PESS operation.
  • Use customer data to discover and prioritize additional improvement opportunities.

Krav

  • Master's students within Automotive Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Control Engineering, Applied Physics, Data Science or a related field.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience with data analysis using Python, MATLAB or similar tools.
  • Interest in vehicle systems, energy efficiency and data-driven engineering.
  • Basic knowledge of statistics and data visualization.
  • Ability to connect data findings with physical and engineering phenomena.

Önskade kvalifikationer

  • Experience with powertrain systems, energy management, control systems, modelling/simulation, thermal management, MATLAB/Simulink or Power BI is considered an advantage.
  • Enjoys using data to visualize system performance, understand why the system behaves as it does, identify improvement opportunities and quantify their potential.

Förmåner

  • Opportunity to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions.
  • Work with next-gen technologies and collaborative teams.
  • Gain experience in data analysis, PESS optimization, and vehicle systems.
