Abstract
The present thesis work is part of the context of Model-Based Design (MBD) applied to the development of mechatronic systems for electric vehicles, with particular reference to the Vehicle.MTM and DigitalFilter.MTM projects. The main objective was to review, reorganize and standardize the existing Simulink models, making them compliant with the MBD good practices and ready for automatic code generation. After an introductory part dedicated to the V-Cycle and its evolution in the Extended V-Cycle, the central role of virtual models in the development process is analysed, from the definition of requirements to the final validation. The integration between simulations, virtual prototypes and real tests allows you to reduce development times and costs, improving the traceability and efficiency of the product life cycle.
The architecture of the Modular Technical Model (MTM) is also presented, based on a functional subdivision into independent modules (Environment, Plant, Control, HMI and User), which guarantees reusability, scalability and progressive integration throughout the development cycle, in line with the principles of the Extended V-Cycle The thesis then describes the revision activity of the Vehicle.MTM project, divided into several phases: •??reorganization of the Project Lauch Page, a centralized access point from which the user can manage all the preliminary operations necessary for the opening, configuration and launch of the Simulink model; •??reorganization of parameter management through the use of Simulink.Parameter objects and a dedicated Simulink Data Dictionary; •??structuring signals into hierarchical Simulink buses to improve readability, modularity, and traceability; •??study and optimization of CAN communication, with the introduction of automatic configuration and switching mechanisms between virtual and real simulation; •??introduction of an automatic mechanism for updating the Data Dictionary, which ensures consistency between the model and the parameters used
