This VEOS-based virtual validation project demonstrates how Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) from different vendors can be integrated into simulation models based on dSPACE Automotive Simulation Models (ASMs) and used with the standards and tools known from hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation. A related SCALEXIO project demonstrates the consistent reuse of project data in the dSPACE tool chain.

The main new feature of SystemDesk 5.6 is an FMU export of V-ECUs. It works for Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 V-ECUs if only CAN buses are used. This new feature gives especially suppliers the chance to create and simulate a V-ECU with the dSPACE SIL solution, and to hand over the same V-ECU to OEMs as an FMU for their SIL simulations.

This SCALEXIO-based hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) project demonstrates how Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) from different vendors and Simulink models based on dSPACE Automotive Simulation Models (ASMs) can be integrated to generate real-time-capable simulation applications for executing HIL tests of real ECUs. A related VEOS project demonstrates the consistent reuse of project data in the dSPACE tool chain.

TargetLink enhances collaboration between development teams, organizations, and companies by supporting the FMI 2.0 standard. Exporting TargetLink models as Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) allows users to easily exchange and combine models from various modeling environments and Simulink versions, while protecting their intellectual property
