With LMS Imagine.Lab Vehicle Dynamics Control, chassis designers and engineers can simulate vehicles, sensors, actuators and the control strategy in a single comprehensive platform, which can be extended to Simulink/RTW for real-time simulation purposes. Via the Simulink interface, the solution can handle high-quality control strategies on detailed models, as well as tests on safety-related electronic systems (ECU design, testing, robustness and fault diagnosis).
Users can explore functional architectures for vehicle dynamics control to enhance vehicle ride comfort, handle the best compromises and integrate new concepts, all in one single platform. It offers the possibility to explore overlapping functions (interactions of tire, driveline, brake, suspension and steering) and analyses couplings in critical situations in which actuator dynamics are relevant. The platform’s open-ended architecture makes it possible to include customer models/libraries and seamlessly run complex analyses, model reduction and real-time tests.
LMS Imagine.Lab Vehicle Dynamics Control ensures significant productivity gains, maximizes knowledge and minimizes time by using reliable libraries and advanced interfaces with most commonly used third party technologies for controls. Engineers can identify the optimal configuration between vehicle, actuators and controllers, and predict vehicle system response to driver steering, braking, throttling and shifting, road inputs and wind perturbations.
