Abstract:
This paper presents a holistic methodology for model-based design of mechatronic systems in digitized and connected system environments. On the one hand, this includes system structuring for the controllability of complex system relations. On the other hand, it comprises the extension of the design and safeguarding process by requirement, data and evaluation management as well as the integration of novel technologies (e.g. Driving-Simulator-in-the-Loop (DSiL) simulations) for the execution of closed-loop simulations under realistic and at the same time reproducible operation conditions. Furthermore, a low-cost rapid control prototyping development platform (LoRra) is presented, with which the presented methodology can be applied. The new holistic methodology is verified by case studies.
