Towards a Comprehensive Framework for Simulation-based Vehicle Systems Design Validation (PREPRINT)
Abstract
We present an overview of our most recent and ongoing research efforts to develop a comprehensive framework for simulation-based vehicle design validation. Specifically we present the three major building blocks of our framework, namely i) the investigation of existing and introduction of appropriate validation metrics for comparing the dynamic responses of vehicle systems that consist of multivariate functional data, ii) the selection and robust implementation of a Bayesian interval-based hypothesis testing technique for quantifying the confidence in simulation models used for design under uncertainty and iii) the development of a sequential design optimization methodology with calibration-based validation to address the inadequacy of current validation methods for design optimization purposes. We conclude with a discussion of the techniques being developed currently that will complete the proposed framework.
