Week 7 Challenge
Vehicle Model:
- Here the Vehicle model is the equation of forces which comes under velocity
- If when vehicle moves from its rest position for motorized vehicles such as automobiles aircraft and watercraft vehicle dynamics is the study of vehicle motion.
- For example how a vehicles forward movement changes in response to driver inputs propulsion system outputs ambient conditions air or surface or water conditions etc.
- We can from below image shows the force acting on a vehicle

-
Here
- Ftr = Tactive Force
- Fa = Aerodymanic drag resistant force
- Fg= Gradient Resistance force
- Fr = Rolling resistance force
- Fi = Inertial resistance force
- Here the Tractive force is the force applied produced by the vehicle powertrain we will now see the quations of three main forces and will implement this by matlab Fcn block
Aerodynamic drag :
- Here Aerodyamic Drag is a force which the on coming air applies on a moving body.
- Its is the reistance offered by the air to the movement of the body.
- So when a car is moving it displaces the air However it affects the car's speed and performance
- It is the aerodynamiv drag or the friction offered by the air to a vehicle
Aerodynamic Drag= 1/2*p*Cd*A*V2
Force of aceelration :
- The acceleration force refers to the vehicle resistance to speed varitaions
- This force holds you back when you increase your speed and also moves you forward when you slow down in other words it means that you consume energy to acclerate up to as certain speed but can recover part of that energy when you decelerate allowing you to drive a certain distance without consuming fuel in equations it is simply written as
- F=m*a m is mass and a is acceleration
