Assisted Model-Based Systems Engineering (A-MBSE)
Abstract
High Energy Electrical Systems operate in the extremes of physical capabilities which, includes, high voltages, high currents, and large mechanical forces. Such an environment requires the system to operate in a very specific regime so as to not cause premature wear while still providing enough energy to function as intended. What is needed is a comprehensive health monitoring system (HMS) that uses sensors to quantify the system state of health (SoH) and make a determination as to whether it is safe to operate. At the heart of autonomous vehicle systems is the intimate connection between hardware and software, the sensors that allow the vehicle to perceive its environment, and the onboard computer that makes decision about vehicle operation. It is this connection that high energy electrical systems can benefit from.
