SYSTEM MODELLING, VALIDATION AND TESTING FOR ELECTRIFIED AND AUTOMATED VEHICLES

Co-chair: Barys Shyrokau, TU Delft, Netherlands
Co-chair: Dzmitry Savitski, ARRIVAL Germany GmbH, Germany

Call For Papers

Vehicle electrification and automation are the key topics for global automotive industry in the coming decades. Along the growing maturity of electric vehicles, electrification technologies support connected and highly-automated driving uptake,
as electric powertrains increase control and sensing degrees of freedom allowing improvements in energy efficiency, performance, handling and driving comfort. In the same time, it enables fault-tolerant system operation, high reliability and reduced powertrain maintenance. Overall development process of such vehicles consists of many stages, elements and components, which are also being characterized nowadays by unequal levels of technological maturity. As consequence, it puts a strong demand in revisiting such vehicle design stages as modelling, validation and testing. In this regard, the purpose of this Special Session is to provide a research forum for generating and exchanging the ideas and results achieved in the areas, which are closely related to innovative design technologies for automated, electric and connected vehicles and their systems.

Modelling, validation and testing technologies for electrified and automated ground vehicles in the following topics:

• Automotive mechatronic systems
• Vehicle dynamics and control
• Advanced chassis and powertrain systems
• Advanced driver assistance systems
• Sensing, estimation and actuation for automotive applications
• Sensor fusion technologies
• Automotive software testing and validation
• MIL, HIL and XIL testing techniques.

Barys Shyrokau received the joint PhD degree, 2015 in Control Engineering from Nanyang Technological University and Technical University Munich, and the DiplEng degree (cum laude), 2004 in Mechanical Engineering from the Belarusian National Technical University. He performed and managed research projects related to vehicle dynamics and control in Joint Institute of Mechanical Engineering (Minsk, Belarus), Lawrence Technological University (Michigan, USA), Technical University of Ilmenau (Germany) within the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), National Research Foundation Singapore “EVA Electric Taxi”. In 2014 he has joined Intelligent Automotive Systems Group at Delft University of Technology as a post-doctoral researcher. Since 2017, he is an assistant professor in the Section of Intelligent Vehicles, Department of Cognitive Robotics, at Delft University of Technology. His research is related to vehicle dynamics and control, motion comfort and driving simulator technology. Scholarship and award holder of FISITA, DAAD, SINGA, ISTVS, CADLM, and a Silver Medal at 67th Nuremberg International Specialized Trade Show for “Ideas – Inventions – New Products”. He is a member of IEEE Technical Committee on Motion Control.

Dzmitry Savitski (S’12–M’18) received the Dipl.-Ing. degree in automotive engineering from Belarusian National Technical University, Minsk, Belarus, in 2011, and the Dr.-Ing. degree in automotive engineering with the Technische Universität Ilmenau (TUIL), Ilmenau, Germany, in 2019. From 2009 to 2011, he was a Research Fellow with Automotive Engineering Group, Technische Universität Ilmenau, leading R&D projects with industrial and academic partners in the area of vehicle dynamics and chassis control system. Since 2018, Dr. Dzmitry Savitski is a Vehicle Dynamics Software Lead at ARRIVAL Germany GmbH, Pforzheim, Germany, coordinating control systems development for X-by-Wire chassis systems.
