High-Fidelity Vehicle Modeling in Simulink

Creating a high-fidelity vehicle model in Simulink allows for the precise simulation of complex vehicle dynamics. This model incorporates detailed subsystems, including powertrain, vehicle, and thermal management, providing a comprehensive virtual environment for analyzing and optimizing vehicle performance. This was a collaboration between multiple sections, with me working to put all the models together and implement an open loop lap sim model and a closed loop driver model.
