Simulation-driven Mobility Function Development☆

Abstract A trend among industrial companies is to change business strategies from hardware-oriented to more service-oriented solutions, e.g. functional product business models. In this paper, a mobility function scenario is developed and the objective is to derive a simulation-driven methodology for development of sustainable mobility functions. It can be concluded that mobility function solutions may create incitements for sustainability. When developing mobility functions, a lot of new requirements, brought about by increased product complexity, need to be managed by the simulation methodology. However, the proposed simulation strategy can be used to drive mobility function development.
