It may be necessary to Speed Closed throttle Torque require that proprietary codes be available to the regulatory body either as soon as they are used for regulatory compli- Transmission Speed Torque Efficiency ance or after some waiting period. Final drive Speed Torque Efficiency A review of currently available software reveals that, Electric machine Speed Torque Efficiency while the tools all provide a set of existing models, each Speed Continuous torque has existing limitations.

For instance, one common power train configurations for medium- and heavy-duty apmistake is to study engine emissions by using a steady-state plications and the need to select the different level of modmodel or to study component transient behavior by using a eling to properly meet different needs (i.e., fuel efficiency, backward model.

For cluding for producer and consumer teams spread across the regulatory purposes, consistency between all approaches country or even the world for some global companies -- for is critical for a fair comparison. As a result, while legacy example, a control design team can have members in the code shall be used, a single platform is necessary to ensure United States and England, or a model calibration and valida- proper integration of the different systems.
