AVL has introduced a face-to-face co-simulation capability in AVL CRUISE M that enables integration of Simulink models. The Simulink Model component allows users to directly use existing Simulink (.slx) files within CRUISE M and execute them through the MATLAB C API.
During simulation, CRUISE M controls the timing and data exchange between CRUISE M and Simulink, ensuring that input and output signals are transferred between both environments. The interface also supports automatic port mapping and coordinated execution, aiming to enable system-level models and control algorithms to run together. The update provides a method for linking multi-domain vehicle models with externally developed control models within a unified simulation setup.
