Fault Tolerant Electric Drive Design with Simscape

This project contains models and code to analyze faulty behavior of an electric drive unit system. Electric drive unit system and controls architecture is the key to design safe, efficient, and comfortable electric vehicles. It is important to analyze the drive unit behavior under various test conditions before finalizing system and controls architecture. You can analyze the system behavior under various component failure situations by introducing faults into inverter components, high voltage DC-Bus, and speed sensor of an electric drive. In this repository you will learn how to use Simscape™, SimscapeElectrical™, Simulink® Fault Analyzer, and Simulink® Test Manager to: Set up fault scenarios. Set up triggers to activate fault scenarios. Generate and store faulty system response. Develop and test fault mitigation strategies.

Electric Drive Fault Modeling Workflows
