Job Summary
Introduction
A thesis project is an excellent way to get closer contact with Scania and build relationships for the future. Many of todays employees began their Scania careers with their thesis work.
Background
At TRATON Group R&D we are developing the next generation of heavy-duty electric drivelines. Today we use advanced physical models that continuously predict critical parameters such as stator winding temperature which are also implemented in our driveline control systems. These models are crucial for performance efficiency and durability.
As we move forward we want to explore new methods to extend these predictive capabilities beyond todays scope.
Thesis scope
The aim of this thesis is to investigate and evaluate methods for predictive modeling of additional functions within electric drivelines. Potential focus areas include (but are not limited to):
- Oil pressure prediction
- Thermal behavior of components
- Cooling efficiency and system dynamics
- Combination of physics-based models and machine learning approaches
A promising direction could be to explore the use of neural networks or other advanced algorithms alongside traditional physical modeling. The long-term vision is to build a complete virtual model capable of predicting driveline behavior without the need for physical testing.
Your Contribution
As a master thesis student you will:
- Review state-of-the-art methods for predictive modeling (physics-based & data-driven).
- Develop and validate models using real test data from electric powertrain.
- Explore the integration of your models into existing control frameworks.
- Deliver recommendations on the feasibility and accuracy of hybrid predictive approaches.
What We Offer
- A unique opportunity to contribute to the electrification of heavy transport within the TRATON Group.
- Access to cutting-edge test facilities and real-world driveline data.
- Close supervision by experienced engineers.
- The chance to shape future driveline development methods.
Profile
We are looking for a motivated and curious student in the final phase of a . in Applied Physics Computer Science IT Engineering Physics or similar. You should have:
- Strong interest in modeling simulation and control systems.
- Knowledge in machine learning and/or physics-based modeling.
- Programming skills (e.g. Python MATLAB or similar).
- Data analysis
