Complexity of distributed parameter bond graph models
(The Society for Modeling and Simulation International, 2014)
Modeling metrics and algorithms that assist the development of dynamic system models are essential for efficient use of modeling and simulation in everyday engineering tasks. Various modeling procedures have been proposed ...
Model reduction of modal representations
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2006)
Dynamic analysis is extensively used to study the behavior of continuous and lumped parameter linear systems. In addition to the physical space, analyses can also be performed in the modal space where useful frequency ...
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
(Affiliation: University of Michigan, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Ann Arbor, MI, United StatesAffiliation: University of Cyprus, Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, Nicosia, CyprusAffiliation: Memorial University of Newfoundland, Department of Engineering and Applied Science, St. John's, NL, CanadaCorrespondence Address: Ersal, T.University of Michigan, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Ann Arbor, MI, United Statesemail: tersal@umich.edu, 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 ...
Integrated, feed-forward hybrid electric vehicle simulation in SIMULINK and its use for power management studies
(2001)
A hybrid electric vehicle simulation tool (HE-VESIM) has been developed at the Automotive Research Center of the University of Michigan to study the fuel economy potential of hybrid military/civilian trucks. In this paper, ...
Implementation of IEEE single precision floating point addition and multiplication on FPGAs
(Affiliation: Rutgers Univ, Piscataway, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Louca, LoucasRutgers Univ, Piscataway, United States, 1996)
Floating point operations are hard to implement on FPGAs because of the complexity of their algorithms. On the other hand, many scientific problems require floating point arithmetic with high levels of accuracy in their ...
Energy-based model reduction methodology for automated modeling
(2010)
In recent years, algorithms have been developed to help automate the production of dynamic system models. Part of this effort has been the development of algorithms that use modeling metrics for generating minimum complexity ...
Systematic assessment of rigid internal combustion engine dynamic coupling
(2008)
Accurate estimation of engine vibrations is essential in the design of new engines, engine mounts, and the vehicle frames to which they are attached. Mount force prediction has traditionally been simplified by assuming ...
