Common use of Identified Needs Clause in Contracts

Identified Needs. The engineering of an electrical vehicle is similar to that of a conventional vehicle in many ways. The particular needs we want to address in this section concern the analysis and synthesis of electrical power consumption, current analysis, power architecture analysis, cable length analysis, component cost analysis and component count analysis. This needs to be supported both statically and dynamically. Other possible FEV-related analyses include: • Insulation analysis, to examine overall resistance and voltage compliance • RESS short circuit analysis • Charging inlet voltage analysis • Transient voltage analysis, e.g. for accidental discharge of capacitors into accessible parts of the EV • Range analysis, to determine maximum range of the EV given the battery capacity and electricity consumption of auxiliary components • Power analysis in key-off mode, to prevent excessive discharge due to vehicle equipment operating in standby mode • Powered braking analysis, to ensure correct braking operation in depleted-power scenarios Constraints can be linked to EAST-ADL and AUTOSAR elements. The mode element defines where the constraint is applicable, and it is possible to analyse the total set of constraint in each mode. To find an average or total measure, the result can be considered in steady state where the modes change according to the behavioral definition. Below we will discuss what this means for each type of constraint studied.
