In order to lead properly an electric vehicle project, it is very important to assess and optimize the driver perception during manoeuvres such as tip-in and tip-out. This aspect of vehicle customer perception is called “drivability”. To meet these objectives, a co-simulation platform has been developed between models under LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim® and Matlab/Simulink®. The first model represents the physical characteristics of the vehicle and takes into account stiffness of the driveline, motor block behaviour onto its mounting blocks, suspensions, tires and vehicle dynamics. The second model computes the torque command of the electric motor for drivability manoeuvres as well as for driving cycles. This paper shows how this platform can help integration teams to tune software and hardware parameters from the early steps of the project’s design.
