Book excerpt: Oak Ridge National Laboratory's (ORNL's) Sustainable Transportation Program (STP) works with government and industry to develop scientific knowledge and new technologies that accelerate the deployment of energy-efficient vehicles and intelligent, secure, and accessible transportation systems. Scientists are tackling complex challenges in transportation using comprehensive capabilities at ORNL's National Transportation Research Center and the laboratory's signature strengths in high-performance computing, neutron sciences, materials science, and advanced manufacturing. Research focuses on electrification, efficiency of combustion and emissions, data science and automated vehicles, and materials for future systems. Highlights from 2016 include: Electrification, Efficiency of combustion and emission controls, Data science and automated vehicles, and Materials for future systems. This annual report is a short summary and snapshot featuring several other accomplishments from the STP team. From motors that achieve higher power density without rare earth materials to thought leadership on combustion as a continuum to new technologies in multimaterial joining and vehicle cybersecurity, ORNL researchers are shaping the future of transportation.
