Maximizing the degree of virtualization by applying validated virtual prototypes and robust and SOP-proven methodologies along the development process:
- Cross-domain vehicle system simulation solutions (functional, thermal, mechanical, geometrical, E/E)
- Entire scope of computer-aided vehicle simulation, including vehicle energy management, driving performance towards aerodynamics, thermal and E/E, NVH, crash, durability, and corrosion and tightness
- Early virtual prototypes in the driving simulator
- AVL VSM™ and AVL vSUITE™ empower complete vehicle optimization by balancing energy management, range, driving attributes, and thermal aspects
- Modularity and real-time capability for seamless usage from concept to testing
- Vehicle system simulation as part of our MBSE-based vehicle development process
Vehicle Concept Definition
Vehicle system simulation is one of the key solutions used in the feasibility and concept phase to enable the vehicle configuration to be identified as quickly as possible.
The solution empowers complete vehicle optimization by balancing energy management, range, driving attributes, and thermal aspects, while also considering geometrical and vehicle architecture properties and structural demands.
Model-Based Vehicle Control Calibration and Testing
The increased numbers of vehicle functions and features lead to a strong virtualization of the entire development of functions (requirement engineering, system design, development, calibration, testing, and validation). AVL’s tools and methods enable efficient and robust model-based development of vehicle functions.
Validated Competitor Vehicle Models
Using benchmark data from AVL’s database — which includes on-road measurement data for more than 300 vehicles from the global market — allows for significantly reduced lead times and costs.
Ultimately, this saves up to 60 % of vehicle model setup and validation time with AVL’s unique Vehicle Model Factory approach.
Driving Simulator Test Sessions
Experience your new vehicle concept or vehicle functions before real hardware prototype vehicles are available. Utilize the AVL driving simulator facility to test drive your innovations before the rubber meets the road.
