Vehicle Modelling and Simulation in Simulink

Modelling chassis flexibility in vehicle dynamics simulation

This thesis deals with the development of advanced mathematical models for the assessment of the influence of chassis flexibility on vehicle handling qualities. A review of the literature relevant to the subject is presented and discussed in the first part of the thesis. A preliminary model that includes chassis flexibility is then developed and employed for a first assessment of the significan...

Integrated, Feed-Forward Hybrid Electric Vehicle Simulation in SIMULINK and its Use for Power Management Studies

A hybrid electric vehicle simulation tool (HE-VESIM) has been developed at the Automotive Research Center of the University of Michigan to study the fuel economy potential of hybrid military/civilian trucks. In this paper, the fundamental architecture of the feed-forward parallel hybrid-electric vehicle system is described, together with dynamic equations and basic features of sub-system module...

Simulation and Animation in Simulink and VRML

The puper describes ci solution that enables the control system designer to easily and seandessly integrate visualization into sirnulutions studies. The design target has been that no inore than 10 percent oj' the modelling eff,i-t should be devoted to iiiodelling the visunlizution part of the simulution. The visualization niodule (VRML Animation Toolset) in the prototype iiiiplementution is in...
