  1. 1. Parameter Optimisation of EPAS Using CAE

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Shounak Bhattacharyya; Suraj Sivaramakrishnan; [2019]
    Keywords : Electronic Power Assist Steering; Optimization; Subjective Assessment; Objective Metrics;

    Abstract : To keep up with technological as well as logistical challenges of the modern automobile market, major car manufacturing firms have resorted to virtual simulation tools. This enables the development as well as validation of vehicular models much before resources are invested into a new physical prototype. READ MORE

  3. 2. Steering system development using test rig and driving simulators

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Utsav Khan; Andrea Bianchi; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Conventional model-based development approaches such as Model-in-Loop (MiL) and Software-in-Loop (SiL) have been used in electric power assisted steering (EPAS) development in recent years, but when it involves a physical motor and the vehicle communication network, the development mostly comes down to real vehicle testing and tuning. The objective and outcome of this master thesis is to develop a Hardware-in-Loop (HiL) environment that involves the real EPAS powerpack and human Driver-in-Loop (DiL) using a static driving simulator.
