Abstract :
In the paper the concept of a simulation avatar for a driver simulator is proposed. The SIMulation AVatar (SIMAV) for a driving simulator is understood as a fully integrated computer model of all driving simulator components: car (AVC), road (AVR) and driver (AVD). Based on the proposed concept the AVC for a 4×4 independent suspension vehicle is developed. The virtual models are implemented in Matlab/Simulink with the help of Simscape second generation elements.
