Updated 29 May 2020

This example simulates the ignition control of a four-cylinder engine. It has been developed as a collaboration between Guy Rouleau from MathWorks and Isaac Hisahiro Ito at Toyota Motor North America R&D. The model is intended for demonstration and educational purpose.

The model implements the following feature:
- Simscape language for modeling a four-cylinder engine ignition process
- Symbolic Math Toolbox for designing the engine model equations
- Simscape Driveline for modeling of the vehicle drivetrain
- Export-function model for the controller, allowing the code generated from it to be integrated with an external environment and scheduler
- Stateflow for simulating the Engine Control Unit scheduler
- SimEvents for simulation of hardware timers
