Simscape™ Vehicle Templates are designed to help engineers model and simulate vehicles using Simscape products. This includes one-axle, two-axle, multi-axle vehicles, and trailers that are integrated with powertrain and chassis controls.
The templates include a vehicle model that you can configure for different powertrain architectures, driveline concepts, and suspension designs. You can also use a MATLAB® app to help you configure the vehicle and the test scenario. A modular library of components gives you a starting point to create custom vehicle models.
Model and Simulate Vehicles Using Simscape Vehicle Templates
Top 10 Use Cases
