Mil/SiL/HiL and Real-time simulation

LMS Im agine.Lab AMESim MiL/SiL/HiL & Real-Tim e Design of controlled systems requires the integration of both the mechanical and controls systems during simulation phase in order to ensure proper results in an effi cient manner. This integration is done at different steps of the process, fi rst being MiL (Model-in-the-Loop) or SiL (Softw are-in-the-Loop) to end in HiL (Hardw are-in-the-Loop). The integration of plant model w ith controls model or code w ill ensure the required accuracy, as w ell as the accessibility of the variables needed for controls. LMS proposes w ith LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim a unique integrated platform that provides realistic component and system models for every stage of the development cycle. Unrivalled features fi t the model for any simulation mode, enabling both system and control engineers to start evaluation and validation phases early in the design cycle: Model-in-the-Loop sim ulation for early function specifi cation Design the control strategies w ith the help of a validated model of the system to pilot Softw are-in-the-Loop for m ore accurate validation of control strategies Test the control strategy softw are using a plant model including CAN or FlexRay protocole Harw are-in-the-Loop for testing and validation on physical devices Test and validate the control strategies implemented on a real control device by simulating the full system to mimic the sub-system environment Calibration for testing in usage context in a global virtual system Test the control strategies in a complete and realistic vehicule confi guration Model-in-the-Loop sim ulation for early function specification Virtual models for the control (Simulink) and the piloted system (LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim) Co-simulation to couple the control model in Simulink and the system model in LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim Accurate physical representation of the system and its actuators Several level of modeling for a good compromise betw een accuracy and execution time LMS Imagine.Lab AMESimSimulink effi cient interface to get the best features of both tools Softw are-in-the-Loop for m ore accurate validation of control strategies Plant model including CAN or FlexRay protocol Use of the generated C code for the control or a Simulink model Export of the LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim models w ithin Simulink (SiL w ithin Simulink) Import of the C code or a Simulink model w ith LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim (SiL w ithin LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim) Test new softw are version and new calibration Access variables in softw are to analyze the softw are behavior Simulate the impact of sensors and actuators time responses Evaluate the impact of CAN message handling sheme Harw are-in-the-Loop for testing and validation on physical devices Seamless generation of mean value models from high-frequency models Efficient link w ith Simulink and RTW Easy-to-modify and robust physical models Methodologies to insure the link w ith model used for sytem design Compatibility w ith major hardw are manufacturers: ETAS, dSPACE, RT-LAB, xPC Target, National Instrument, etc. Control the systems inputs through the real-time solution providers softw are Calibration for fi nal testing in usage context in a global virtual system Simulation of the w hole system w ith accurate models (transmission, injection, thermal regulation, hydraulic system, electrical system) Optimize the test program and reduce the number of tests Define and optimize the coming testing program References Airbus: Real time model of the hydraulic pow er generation and distribution system used in long range aircraft integration simulator Continental: Building gasoline and Diesel engine model w ith real-time computation on a large range of operating point Delphi: Building a new generation of HIL simulators based on physical models EADS/Eurocopter : Hydraulic models integration on a real-time platform General Motors: Virtual SiL to speed up system engineering IFP: Building a detailed engine model w ith its complete air path including VVT Back Share
