TU Internship – Matlab Tooling

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: A physical model of the real world system Controllers which control the system 3D-model of the system Voorbeeld Techniek 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). Voorbeeld Techniek is searching for an enthusiastic student who can contribute to the following activities: Generation and maintenance of the Matlab/Simulink library with model blocks Development of Matlab scripts for generation of communication blocks Improvement and validation of existing model blocks About Voorbeeld Techniek At Voorbeeld Techniek we believe that there should be a challenge in everything we do.

As a leading technology supplier we design and produce a broad range of electromechanical and hydraulic products, which are supplied to both industrial clients and governments around the world. What is an internship like at Voorbeeld Techniek? At Voorbeeld Techniek, we ensure that interns receive professional support to develop themselves fully within an open and collaborative culture. We provide challenges by assigning significant responsibilities, but you’ll never be left to face them alone.

As a family-owned company, we take care of each other and maintain a strong connection, both professionally and personally.
