Driveline Library Overview

The Driveline Library provides a collection of one-dimensional components to model a power train from the engine to the wheels, including power transmission elements such as gears and gearboxes, CVT, torque converter, and differentials.

With this library you can fully design, analyze and test systems, and use the technical documentation tools to document your design decisions. For example, you can attach a template to your model to expand the simulation environment to perform a more complete and detailed analysis and design.

You can connect the Driveline components to components in other domains (such as hydraulics and magnetics) to increase the fidelity of your models. You can also integrate Driveline components into multibody models, for example, using the 1-D differential model in a multibody vehicle model.

Subpackages The Driveline Library consists of the following modeling subpackages: Basic Gears - basic gears and planet gears Clutches and Brakes - basic clutch and brake components Differential Gears - slip differential and differential gear components Loss Elements - components to model losses in bearings and dampers Planetary Gears - planetary gears Source Sink - engine and dynamometer components Transmissions - compound gears, CVT, selector, and actuators Vehicle and Tire - vehicle and tire models See Also 1-D Mechanical Overview Component Library Overview MapleSim Help System
