DRIVE - Dynamic simulation of car engines, gearboxes, and transmissions   
DRIVE simulates the behavior of cars during acceleration along their longitudinal axis of symmetry. The coupled dynamics of sprung and unsprung masses are obtained by calculating vehicle vertical motion and pitch. The driveline is carefully modeled from the clutch to the tires, including the spring drive and gearbox. Tire performances are expressed by a nonlinear slip-force diagram, allowing for the correct calculation of traction forces, including those with high slip ratios.

Physical Modeling   
Accelerate system-level analysis and control design with accurate and intuitive models of your physical system

The design of engineering systems requires tight integration of many engineering disciplines. To be successful, teams of engineers must collaborate using a wide array of diverse technologies. Software, in the form of control algorithms and signal processing algorithms, plays an ever increasing role in these systems. Developing software alongside the physical system results in optimized designs and the detection of errors earlier in the design process.

ve-DYNA� - Vehicle dynamics DYNA�ware   
ve-DYNA allows real-time capable model simulation to test controls and components in a virtual vehicle under realistic conditions. Whether conducted in the onboard mode with hardware-in-the-loop test beds or in the offboard mode, ve-DYNA runs in real time with a time increment of less than 1 ms. The parameters of the ve-DYNA model can be entered using the ve-DYNA GUIs to allow rapid prototyping of an infinite number of vehicle configurations using a single Simulink model. The user has access to the calling interfaces as well as to the data workspace of ve-DYNA, such that inputs and outputs can be defined by the user and even sections of the ve-DYNA model can be replaced with the help of Simulink models. The software is completely modular and can be adapted and customized to your specific needs.

DynaMod - Multiple input, multiple output system identification   
DynaMod is comprised of a suite of code engines that generate, reduce, and tune a dynamic model to fit frequency response data with an accurate, minimal order model. A simple, powerful graphical interface allows high order, high input/output dimensionality models to be fit with minimal user effort. Systems of over 200 states, with 10 inputs and outputs, can reliably be captured. The tuning algorithm uses a logarithmic cost that weights the error at transmission zeros on the same level as the error at poles, leading to improved accuracy at the zeros. Continuous or discrete time models can be generated, transparently to the user, for control design and implementation on a digital control computer. The high accuracy, high order models can also be used for parameter identification and model updating.

Free Online MathWorks Seminar: Using Simulink Parameter Estimation and Test Data to Calibrate a Model of an Electric Motor     
Simulink is a powerful tool for developing a first-principles model of a dynamic system. First-principles models provide important insight into system behavior, but may not always match the outputs of a prototype or real system. Using input-output test data to calibrate parameters within the model helps improves its accuracy, but can be time consuming as the number of parameters increases and complexity of the calculations grow.

Verification, Validation (V and V) and Test in Model-Based Design   
Continuous test and verification is a cornerstone of Model-Based Design [http://www.mathworks.com/applications/controldesign/description/mbd.html]. Early verification and validation, also known as V and V, enables you to find errors early in the development process, when they are less costly to fix. One way that Model-Based Design achieves this efficiency is through simulation and testing.
