Applied Brake Controls Test Track Experience ABS, TCS, and ESC

Take notes.  Take a spin.  Repeat.  Six classroom modules (2 each for ABS, TCS and ESC!) are paired with six driving modules on a real-world ice and snow development test track in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.  There's no better way to reinforce classroom learning than by grabbing the steering wheel.  All of the driving exercises have been specifically developed so that anyone can hop in the car and immediately link what you have just learned in the classroom.

High-Performance Brake Systems

While most passenger car brake systems are quite robust and reliable under typical operating conditions, high-performance driving and/or racetrack operation generally require alternative design solutions to optimize consistency and longevity. Whether it is brake fluid fade, cracked rotor discs, chronic knockback, or insufficient brake pad life, the stresses of motorsports can pose unique challenges to even the very best brake system designs.

Fundamentals of Fatigue Analysis

Fatigue is a structural failure mode that must be recognized and understood to develop products that meet life cycle durability requirements. In the age of lightweighting, fatigue strength is an important vehicle design requirement as engineers struggle to meet stringent weight constraints without adversely impacting durability. This technical concept course introduces the fatigue failure mode and analysis methods. It explains the physics of material fatigue, including damage accumulation that may progress to product failure over time, and it provides the needed foundation to develop effective fatigue prediction capabilities.

Testing Models the Right Way – From Requirements to Model Testing

This training class provides a comprehensive overview of the principles, processes, and objectives of model testing – from requirements to model tests. We offer step-by-step guidance from creating requirements-based test specifications, through testing TargetLink and/or Embedded Coder models, to automated test evaluation based on test assessments and back-to-back/regression tests. In particular, we will emphasize ISO 26262-compliant test management and explain the test process for MiL and SiL, as well as tracing requirements to test specifications and test assessments.

Introduction to Model-based Development and Quality Assurance of Embedded Software

This training class provides a practical overview of developing and safeguarding embedded software on the basis of Simulink and code generators like Embedded Coder and TargetLink within the framework of serial projects. The training class takes participants through all process steps from designing and creating the simulation model in Simulink and Stateflow to generating production code. Model quality assurance consists of verifying the model and software architecture, safeguarding the modeling guidelines, as well as checking for functional compliance with requirements in the model test.

Agile Model-Based Software Development

Model-based software development has become state of the art for automotive embedded applications. Toolchains have been established, and methods and procedures have been defined to address the strong requirements of functional safety standards. Best practices within general software development, however, propose to overcome strict waterfall process models and promote agile methods in order to address real-world challenges, such as late changes or vague requirements. These real-world scenarios exist in automotive software development, and agile methods will also be beneficial here.

ADAS Application Automatic Emergency Braking

2024-09-19
Active safety and (ADAS) are now being introduced to the marketplace as they serve as key enablers for anticipated autonomous driving systems. Automatic emergency braking (AEB) is one ADAS application which is either in the marketplace presently or under development as nearly all automakers have pledged to offer this technology by the year 2022. This one-day course is designed to provide an overview of the typical ADAS AEB system from multiple perspectives.

Introduction to Brake Control Systems ABS, TCS, and ESC

2024-09-19
Electronic brake control systems are required standard equipment on cars and trucks. Vehicles benefit from optimized braking, enhanced acceleration, and improved stability that these systems provide. The instructor introduces participants to system-level design considerations, vehicle interface requirements, and inevitable performance compromises that need to be addressed when implementing these technologies. Participants will begin by defining the tire-road interface and analyzing fundamental vehicle dynamics.
