Hybrid and electric powertrain research

Caterpillar Innovation and Research Centre - Hybrid and electric research with 天堂视频

The I&RC has a proven track record for hybrid and electric powertrain research in collaboration with industry, combining the very latest test and measurement systems with support for a range of voltages and configurations to provide nationally unique capability.

Purpose-designed for flexibility, continuous investment in the facility enables the evaluation of control and energy systems in a multitude of applications. Simulation underpins all capability with a unified model development approach for reduced test, control and engineering development.

Research areas include

  • Model based and adaptive control
  • Nonlinear dynamic and identification of powertrain systems
  • Dynamic non-linear powertrain system numerical optimisation
  • Adaptive battery management and condition monitoring
  • Hybrid system control and optimisation
