Convert EV Papers into PhD Thesis

I already have three published papers on electric-vehicle charging and a university-approved thesis template. Your mission is to mould those papers into one seamless Ph.D. dissertation, written and typeset entirely in LaTeX on Overleaf.

You will receive:
• the official structure document my faculty expects
• the full set of formatting and submission guidelines
• the three peer-reviewed articles (source files and PDFs)

What I need from you is a logically connected thesis that:
1. Re-orders, edits, and links the existing papers into unified chapters (intro, literature review, methods, results, discussion, conclusion) while preserving each study’s integrity.
2. Adds any bridging text, contextual background, extended literature coverage, and future-work sections required by the template.
3. Applies all university style rules for references, tables, figures, and appendices directly in LaTeX.
4. Delivers a clean Overleaf project that compiles to a submission-ready PDF and matches the provided checklist.

I will be available for clarifications, additional data, or figures as you progress. If you are comfortable with technical writing, LaTeX workflow, and the EV charging domain, I look forward to collaborating with you and seeing the first integrated draft soon.
