Simulation results are not representative of a real system behavior up to its model validation. Validation activity needs a model characterization to match real system and model parameters.

Abstract
Simulation results are not representative of a real system behavior up to its model validation. Validation activity needs a model characterization to match real system and model parameters. This activity impacts more on mechatronics systems which are affected by both physical and control characterizations. This work deals with single bowden power window systems; it improves a system model, previously developed, by deepening window aspects and force system. Force types and modules have been obtained by several experimental tests, in different operating conditions. Experimental automated tests have been carried out by means of a new virtual instrument developed in LabVIEW® environment. Comparison of test results highlights three main components related to: sliding friction, window friction and gravity. These components are affected by window shape which induces module variations. We named these variations "window shape effect and these results bring to a new procedure for system validation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
