Method for Developing Classifications of Vehicles' Automated Power Systems Based on Their Generalized Mathematical Structural Models

The research paper presents a methods for developing classifications of various types of vehicles' automated power systems based on their generalized mathematical structural models (MSM). The great diversity of automobile designs now in production across the globe plus the variety of privately implemented design decisions for subsystems and subassemblies for the same functional application impose stringent requirements on the rigidity and objectivity of the latter's classification. This classification is a tool for expanding the information field of seeking extra sources of economic success in transportation business and of assured continuous re-engineering in business endeavors. Using an impressive multitude of essential schemes of private system arrangement, the method formulates a multitude of corresponding functional MSM. Following this, they are converted to the operational counterparts and further on to the structural form. Thus, by means of "a packaged addition" of all private model forms, a generalized structural MSM is created that applies to the class of systems under consideration. The model manifests all the distinctive features of the latter and ensures automation of compact procedures for evaluation of its functional properties.
