Modelling and control of a medium-duty hybrid electric truck
(2004)
The main contributions of this paper are the development of a forward-looking hybrid vehicle simulation tool, and its application to the design of a power management control algorithm, The hybrid electric vehicle simulation ...
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 ...
Combined optimisation of design and power management of the hydraulic hybrid propulsion system for the 6 × 6 medium truck
(2004)
Hybrid propulsion systems are one of the critical technologies on the roadmap to future ultra-efficient trucks. While there is a significant body of work related to hybrid passenger cars and light commercial trucks, there ...

Design under uncertainty and assessment of performance reliability of a dual-use medium truck with hydraulic-hybrid powertrain and fuel cell auxiliary power unit
(2005)
Medium trucks constitute a large market segment of the commercial transportation sector, and are also used widely for military tactical operations. Recent technological advances in hybrid powertrains and fuel cell auxiliary ...
Target cascading in vehicle redesign: A class VI truck study
(2002)
The analytical target cascading process is applied to the redesign of a U.S. class VI truck. Necessary simulation and analysis models for predicting vehicle dynamics, powertrain, and suspension behaviour are developed. ...
