Abstract: The bouncing evolution of an universe in Loop Quantum Cosmolgy can be described very well by a set of effective equations, involving a function $sin;x$. Recently, we have generalised these effective equations to $(d+1)$ dimensions and to any function $f(x);$. Depending on $f(x);$ in these models inspired by Loop Quantum Cosmolgy, a variety of cosmological evolutions are possible, singular as well as non singular. In this paper, we study them in detail. Among other things, we find that the scale factor $a(t);propto;t^{frac2q(2q-1);(1+w)d};$ for $f(x)=x^q;$, and find explicit Kasner--type solutions if $w=2q-1;$ also. A result which we find particularly fascinating is that, for $f(x)=sqrtx;$, the evolution is non singular and the scale factor $a(t)$ grows exponentially at a rate set, not by a constant density, but by a quantum parameter related to the area quantum.
