Certificate Course in
EV Mechanical Design, Development & Analysis
Duration – 45 Hours Hybrid Learning
Course Overview
The course focuses on many areas of electric vehicle design and simulation utilising software such as MATLAB, SolidWorks and ANSYS. It gives an overview of the MATLAB environment, including syntax, variables, commands, etc. It also covers the creation of SIMULINK models for vehicle units, the use of Advisor and the QSS toolbox and the use of QSS-based vehicle control. This course covers the architecture, components and thermal management of an electric vehicle powertrain.
