AI for Electrification
Apply artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to the development and operations of electrical technologies
With MATLAB and Simulink, you can model complex behaviors of electrical components and increase simulation speed by creating AI-based reduced order models (ROMs). You can create, train, and test AI-based virtual sensors and control strategies for motors, batteries, power converters, energy management systems, electric vehicles, and grid systems. MATLAB and Simulink help you to ensure safe and efficient operations of electrical systems by integrating AI-based energy forecasting and adopting AI-based predictive maintenance.
Reduced Order Modeling
You can use AI and data-driven methods to create reduced order models for physical components (such as brushless motors and motor loads) or physical systems and use these models in your design. These methods help you significantly speed up simulations while still capturing the essential behavior of your system.
MATLAB, Simulink, and Simscape enable you to:
- Create physics-based simulation models of systems, run simulations, and generate synthetic data for training AI models
- Select from a library of prebuilt AI models and evaluate model performance by running multiple experiments
- Directly integrate AI models in Simulink for model validation and testing by running simulations
When implementing power electronics controls, you can use AI to develop virtual sensor models to provide critical signals. Virtual sensors have no recurring bill-of-material cost, they are non-invasive, and they have no maintenance needs.
With MATLAB, Simulink, and Simscape, you can:
- Create physics-based models of systems, run simulations, and generate synthetic data for training AI-based virtual sensors
- Select from a library of prebuilt AI models and evaluate model performance by running multiple experiments
- Directly integrate virtual sensor models in Simulink within physical system models for validation
- Generate readable, efficient C/C++ code for embedded devices
