Design of an Electric Vehicle using MATLAB and Simulink

Objective: To simulate crash test for a mobile phone.   Procedure: 1.Meshed model is imported in to LS-Dyna. 2.We need to define cards for the model. Cards needed to create are Part Material section contact interface Initial velocity Output requests 3.We need to define the material card for both mobile phone and rigid…

Objective:    To analyse the side crash of a Neon car's BIW as per Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 214 (FMVSS214). Abstract: The results of a study on the response of a side impact beam located in a car door to impact loading is presented. The side impact beam is situated in both the front and rear…

Objective: To analyse the frontal crash of a car's BIW as per the  FMVSS(Federal Motor Vehicle SafetyStandard ).208   Abstract: Every year National Highway Traffic Safety Administration evaluates crash safety for cars all around the world.Tests are conducted to measure how people inside the car are…

Abstarct: An electric vehicle is a vehicle that uses one or more electric motors or traction motors for propulsion.An electric vehicle may be powered through a collecter system by electricity from off vehicle sources or may be self contained with a battery,solar panels,fuel cells or an electric generator to convert fuel…

Objective: To clean up the geometry. Extract mid-surface of the model. To mesh the model. Theory: All real life objects are continuous.Means there is no physical gap between ant two consecutive particles.As per material science,any object made of small particles,particles of molecules,molecules of atoms and so on and they…

Objective: To mesh the model using ANSA. Abstract:  The basic idea of meshing is to make calculations at only finite number of points and then interpolate the results for the entire domain(surface or volume).Any continuous object has infinite degrees of freedom and it's just not possible to solve the problem in this…

Objective: To take out the mid surface of the IP subtrate. To mesh the component with the given quality criteria. About the model: An Instrument Panel(IP) also called dashboard or fascia,is usually located directly ahead of a vehicle's driver,displaying instrumentation and controls for the vehicle's operation. Above shown…

AIM: To list out the weights of various aircrafts Calculate the force & power required to pull/push an aircraft by a towing vehicle. Design an electric powertrain with type of motor, it’s power rating, and energy requirement to fulfill aircraft towing application. EXPLANATION: An aircraft's gross weight is limited…

AIM: To parse the NASA thermodynamic data To calculate the molecular weight of each species To plot the Cp, Enthalpy and Entropy for the local temperature range for `N_2,O_2&CO_2` Definitions: File parsing:Parsing a file means reading in a data stream of some sort and building an in memory model…

AIM:To optimise the stalagmite function and find the global maxima of the function. THEORY: Global Optimization:Global optimization is a branch of applied mathematics and numerical analysis that attempts to find the global minima or maxima of a function or a set of functions on a given set. Some…

AIM: To fit a linear and cubic polynomial for the Cp data.  Plot the linear and cubic fit curves along with the raw data points. the parameters used to measure the fitness characteristics for both the curves. THEORY:Curve fitting is the process of constructing a curve,or a mathematical function that has the best fit…

Aim:To simulate the transient behaviour of a simple pendulum and to create an animation of it's motion. THEORY:                                            A simple pendulum consists of a mass m,hanging to a string…

AIM:To plot the otto cycle diagram & to find the thermal efficiency of the engine THEORY:An Otto cycle is an idealized thermodynamic cycle that describes the functioning of a typical spark ignition piston engine.                            …

Objective: To simulate the forward kinematics of a 2R Robotic Arm using MATLAB INTRODUCTION: A Robotic arm is a mechanical arm that is programmable with similar or higher  functionalities like a human arm with higher degrees of freedom. Some types of robotic arms aare Cartesean robot cylindrical robots spherical robots…
