Driver modeling
VI-Driver is a control
system developed to
drive the vehicle simply
and efficiently. Its main
characteristics are:
Robust, in order to adjust
to several types of
vehicles
Easy to adjust and self-
adjusting in some
situations
Capable of driving in sub-
limits and limit
conditions
Maxperformance Maneuver
MaxPerformance is an event in VI-CRT which is used
to define a dynamic limit speed profile in a circuit.
The event uses a static solver (VISpeedGen) in order
to calculate a speed profile and then verify if the
calculated profile is viable through the dynamic
solver.
If it is impracticable, the static solver calculates a
new profile only near the impracticable region.
The process is repeated until a feasible speed profile
for the whole circuit is found.
Model validation
The model validation can be seen through comparison
with telemetry: 1 simulation, 2 telemetry
