An Algorithm for the Selection of Physical System Model Order Based on Desired State Accuracy and Computational Efficiency
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2003)
In recent years, algorithms have been developed to help automate the production of dynamic system models, The focus of this development has been to create procedures and algorithms that use modeling metrics for generating ...

(Affiliation: Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, United StatesAffiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, CyprusCorrespondence Address: Ersal, T.Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, United Statesemail: tersal@umich.edu, 2004)
A new generation of machine tools called Reconfigurable Machine Tools (RMTs) is emerging as a means for industry to be more competitive in a market that experiences frequent changes in demand. New methodologies and tools ...
Implementing the milliken moment method using controlled dynamic simulation
(2005)
The Milliken Moment Method (MMM) can be used to quantify the constraints imposed on vehicle stability and controllability by front and rear tire traction limitations. The main aspect of the Milliken Moment Method is the ...
Ideal physical element representation from reduced bond graphs
(2002)
Previous research has demonstrated that bond graphs are a natural and convenient representation to implement energy-based metrics that evaluate the relative 'value' of energy elements in a dynamic system model. Bond graphs ...
Using the Milliken Moment Method and dynamic simulation to evaluate vehicle stability and controllability
(2008)
The Milliken Moment Method (MMM) effectively organises kinematically constrained vehicle test results. The authors present a method for evaluating vehicle handling
Using the milliken moment method and dynamic simulation to evaluate vehicle stability and controllability
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)
The Milliken Moment Method (MMM) is a way of efficiently organizing the results from a kinematically constrained vehicle test. Using the MMM and closed-loop dynamic simulation, the authors present a new method for evaluating ...
Vehicle model robustness: A case study of the FMTV military truck model
(2005)
Vital to the effectiveness of simulation-based design is having a model of known quality of the system being designed. The purpose of this paper is to validate a simplified dynamic model of an FMTV (Family of Medium Tactical ...
A review of proper modeling techniques
(2008)
A dynamic system model is proper for a particular application if it achieves the accuracy required by the application with minimal complexity. Because model complexity often-but not always-correlates inversely with simulation ...

Simulation-based optimal design of heavy trucks by model-based decomposition: An extensive analytical target cascading case study
(2004)
We present the findings of an extensive case study for the decomposed, simulation-based, optimal design of an advanced technology heavy truck by means of analytical target cascading. The use of a series hybridelectric ...
