Simulink Electric Vehicle Control Strategy

Resource Overview

Implementation of an electric vehicle model using Simulink, incorporating subsystems for motor dynamics, driver behavior, vehicle kinematics, battery management, and control logic.

Detailed Documentation

In this project, we utilize Simulink to construct a comprehensive electric vehicle model. The model integrates specialized subsystems including motor dynamics (implementing torque-speed characteristics and efficiency mapping), driver behavior (using pedal input processing and speed reference tracking), vehicle kinematics (employing Newton-Euler equations for longitudinal dynamics), and battery management (featuring state-of-charge calculation and power limitation algorithms). During development, particular attention is given to subsystem interdependencies through properly configured interface signals and bus structures. The modeling approach ensures parameterized component libraries for easy customization, with solver configuration optimized for real-time simulation compatibility. This framework provides clear visualization of electric vehicle operational principles, establishing a foundation for developing more efficient and reliable electric vehicles through systematic validation and controller tuning capabilities.
