Motorola Creates Electric Vehicle Battery Management Controller with Real-Time Workshop® Embedded Co

“We would almost certainly not have been able to meet our deadlines if we’d used paper designs and hand coding instead of Simulink and Real-Time Workshop Embedded Coder." - Salam Zeidan, Motorola

Ford Motor Company Accelerates the Calibration of Onboard Engine Diagnostics with MathWorks Tools

"MathWorks tools have enabled our engineers to gain a greater understanding of the algorithm function and interactions and to explore the effects of calibration changes with-out using vehicles." - Robin Drane, Ford Motor Company Limited UK

Model-Based Calibration Toolbox

Description

Introduction

model-based-calibration-toolbox 42018_wm_mb_workflow1

Model-Based Calibration Toolbox™ provides design tools for optimally calibrating complex powertrain systems using statistical modeling and numeric optimization. You can define test plans, develop statistical models, and generate calibrations and lookup tables for complex high-degree-of-freedom engines that would require exhaustive testing using traditional methods. By using the toolbox with MATLAB® and Simulink®, you can develop a process for systematically identifying the optimal balance of engine performance, emissions, and fuel economy, and reuse statistical models for control design, hardware-in-the-loop testing, or powertrain simulation.

Key Features

  • Interactive workflow tools for designing experiments, fitting statistical models to engine data, and producing optimal calibrations
  • Classical, space-filling, and optimal designs, based on Design-of-Experiments methodology, for creating optimized test plans
  • Techniques for developing high-fidelity nonlinear statistical models from test data
  • Linear regression and radial basis function modeling techniques for creating accurate fits to data
  • Built-in and user-definable libraries of empirical model forms
  • Boundary modeling to keep optimization results within the engine operating envelope
  • Optimization and tradeoff tools for solving calibration problems at individual operating points or over drive cycles
  • Generation of lookup tables from models, optimization results, or test data
  • Calibration import and export links to ETAS INCA and ATI Vision
