Job description

Van Halteren Technologies

• €600
• Boxtel
• Engineering

This is the scope of work of the internship:

The use of simulation models is becoming ever more important in the engineering process. A model is a digital

representation of the physical world. Such a model contains electrical components such as electric motors,

hydraulic components such as hydraulic cylinders and mechanical components such as drivetrains.

Simulation models are already used in the early design stages of an engineering project with Model-Based

Design, all the way through the final testing stage of a where these models form the backbone of a Digital Twin

setup. A Digital Twin is a digital representation of the physical system. Such a DT contains, among others, the

following components:

Van Halteren technologies is working with Digital Twins for the development of Control Software, to gain

insight into dynamical properties of the system and to reproduce events and faults generated by the real world

system. The driving power of a Digital Twin is the physical model and the coupling with the controllers.

The physical model is generated in Matlab/Simulink and is running on dedicated hardware (Speedgoat).

Van Halteren Technologies is searching for an enthusiastic student who can contribute to the following

activities:
