Simulation result is required for below
A 1500 kg vehicle travels along an asphalt roadway with a 1 degree grade. The travel takes 1370 seconds during which the driver meets urban drive schedule with speed profile shown below (no wind). Data for the speed vs. time profile has been attached in .mat format which can be loaded to MATLAB current path by double clicking on those files and then they can be directly used. A rolling resistance coefficient is 0.013, frontal area is 2.05 m2 and drag coefficient is 0.32. An air density is 1.2 kg/m3.

Create a Simulink model for vehicle in order to generate, the aerodynamic, grading, rolling resistance and tractive force (Ft) as a function of time. Then plot these four variables vs. time and submit your plots in one PDF file through Moodle system. It is also necessary to attach your Simulink file in .mdl format.
