Deployment of high-fidelity vehicle models for accurate real-time simulation

In the effort to shorten development cycles and with the reduced ability to test in real life, driver-in-theloop simulators are increasingly used by automotive OEMs and in Motorsports to enable engineers and drivers to experience a new vehicle design in a realistic environment before it is built. With the right level of accuracy, the same model can be applied in other real-time vehicle dynamics applications to allow for testing and verification in the development of new vehicle functions. This paper gives and overview of the requirements for automotive real-time application and the solution chosen. Emphasis is given on the model definition and real-time configuration as well as parameterization from existing data sources and integration of third party subsystem models.
