Version v2.0.1 (2022-03-15)

Release 2.0.1 of the VehicleInterfaces Library containing some minor improvements.

v2.0.0 (2020-06-26)

Version 2.0.0 of the VehicleInterfaces library. It is compatible to Modelica Standard Library 4.0.0.

Short Overview

• This version is based on the recent Modelica language standard version 3.4.
• Not backward compatible to previous versions 1.x.y of the VehicleInterfaces library.
• Obsolete classes of previous versions 1.x.y have been replaced.
• A tested conversion script is provided to transform models and libraries of previous versions 1.x.y to the new version.
• Obsolete classes that could not be automatically converted to alternative implementations have been moved to library ObsoleteVehicleInterfaces2.

Improvements in this version

• MinimalAccessories: load torque changes its sign with direction of rotation.
• Road examples were moved into a particular package: Roads.Examples.
• Variable currentGear was deleted from Interfaces.TransmissionControlBus since it is yet properly defined in Transmissions.Internal.StandardControlBus.

Non-backward compatible changes
The following existing components have been changed in a non-backward compatible way:

• #28: Reintroducing the idea of expandable connectors for signal buses.
• #56 and #46: renaming of protected parameter includeAccessoriesBearing and includeTransmissionBearing, respectively.
• #38: A positive load parameter accessoriesLoad of MinimalAccessories indicates accessories load now.
• #70: Spell Greek letter for m (μ) correctly: mu instead of mue. This concerns classes in Roads package, in particular the function Roads.Interfaces.frictionCoefficientBase. When using this function in your models, please check that automatic conversion performed correctly, i.e. the function's output is called mu now.

v1.2.5 (2019-03-06)

• This version requires the Modelica 3.2.3 Library.
• This version is backwards compatible to versions 1.1.x and 1.2.x of the VehicleInterfaces library.
• Blocks marked as obsolete: VehicleInterfaces.Blocks.RealPassThrough, VehicleInterfaces.Blocks.IntegerPassThrough, VehicleInterfaces.Blocks.BooleanPassThrough
• Resolved usage of obsolete block in VehicleInterfaces.DriverEnvironments.DriveByWireAutomaticExternalDriver
• Deleted text string from icons of VehicleInterfaces.Mechanics.NormalisedTranslational.Interfaces.Flange and VehicleInterfaces.Mechanics.NormalisedRotational.Interfaces.Flange
• Restructured Images and Scripts directories to match Modelica Standard Library conventions, removed unused files
