Potentials of Coupled Test Benches

Technological trends, such as electrification and automated driving, result in increasingly complex vehicle development processes. Hereby, distributed development tools can assist in a wide range of applications. In the FVV project “Method Hybrid Testing” (no. 1363) a methodology for a virtual test bench network for hybrid electric drives was developed at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology accompanied by APL. This allows investigations at system level to be carried out as early as
at the component development stage.
