On the potential of regenerative braking of electric buses as a function of their itinerary

This paper proposes a mathematical model for an electric bus powertrain, implemented in a simulation platform. We intend to analyze the consumption of energy according to the route specifications and other performance measures. The potential for regenerative braking will be evaluated for different r...
