Model Design Philosophy – Open Models
For optimum support of customer-specific requirements, dSPACE has chosen an open model concept. This means that models are visible to users right down to the level of standard Simulink blocks. Thus, the dSPACE Automotive Simulation Models provide enormous flexibility for projects that require dedicated simulation models. The open model approach allows perfect adaptation to individual projects and requirements. This can be achieved by modifying models or by replacing or adding components.
Virtual Vehicle
dSPACE Automotive Simulation Models are a collection of well coordinated models that you can easily combine to build anything from extended models to a whole virtual vehicle. As well as gasoline and diesel engines, there are models for vehicle dynamics and brake hydraulics. Combined models interoperate in one simulation.
