High level description
In the industry standard for e-mobility development of VCB systems together with the complete driveline and connected ECU control units. MATLAB and Simulink is a powerful tool for engineers to create a model based system engineering platform. Knightec e-mobility platform needs to get its own tools.
How would a tool work that could create electrical dimensioning of a e-powertrain based on tractive effort and vehicle speed.
For this, the student will work closely together with the Knightec E-Mobility team to explore the future together.
Project Description
The project aims to create a simulation tool box that can be used for a versatile project base for E-Mobility projects. Torque vectoring technology is an example of a vehicle’s ability to vary torque in each wheel. Torque vectoring systems enable a car to transfer torque between a given wheel or axle based on cornering. This technology concept is designed to improve steering response and handling while also improving vehicle dynamics. To create such a function or similar in a simulated environment will save cost but most important the engineers will not have to be outside on a test track during rainy days. Simulation tools are created by engineers for engineers.
The tool can be made in MATLAB or similar software with a graphical interface that can plot a standardized report.
The objectives of the thesis is:
• What is the best system approach for this?
• What are the base tools
• How will we use them?
• What is a good set up to work with a broad project portfolio?
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for someone that is interested in e-mobility and power electronics. This work is suitable for master or bachelor students in Electrical Engineering, Vehicle Engineering physics or a similar field.
Purpose
The aim of the thesis project is to explore ways to make E-Mobility engineering stronger at together.
