The secretary presented the work program of the Department of Signals and Systems (DSS) at Chalmers University of Technology, Göteborg, since Prof. Fredriksson could not attend the meeting.

He reported that non-electric hybrid powertrain topologies fit well into the same categories as for electric hybrid powertrains, and that the mathematical models for flywheel, accumulator and pump/motor have similar model structures as in the Japanese regulation. The work done is according to the time plan.

Implementation of the models in MATLAB/Simulink has started. For the verification, real model data from suppliers or OEMs are needed. System modelling will be incorporated into the Japanese open-source model with a simple rule based controller.
