MSc Thesis - Modelling and Control of Vehicle Chassis Systems with Wheel-End Actuation
Technology, Data & Digital · Software & Web Development · Software Engineering · Embedded Systems
In short
This MSc thesis focuses on modeling and controlling vehicle chassis systems with wheel-end actuation for heavy commercial vehicles, particularly in the context of electrification. The project involves developing and validating vehicle models, obtaining parameters through measurements, modeling semi-active actuators, and synthesizing control strategies using MATLAB/Simulink and IPG Truckmaker.
Responsibilities
- Develop and validate vehicle models for global chassis control in IPG Truckmaker.
- Obtain vehicle parameters using measurement data and system identification to enable estimation of un-measurable states.
- Develop semi-active damping actuator models of different technologies.
- Synthesize, test and validate control strategies for the developed semi-active actuators.
Requirements
- Control theory skills.
- Vehicle dynamics skills.
- Signal processing skills.
- Recommended for two students with control analysis profile with good mathematical skills.
Desired Qualifications
- Interest in mathematical modeling is seen as a benefit.
- MATLAB/Simulink will be used as the primary development environments.
- IPG Truckmaker will be used as the primary development environments.
Benefits
- Dedicated support from experienced supervisors.
- Project contributes to company's vital goals.
- Opportunity to make a real impact.
- Advance academic journey and professional growth.
