The AEV that will be build is one that can follow the track at a proper speed, it also has to come into play that since it is going yo carry passengers to various parts of the park it needs to be programmed to stop at the various spots and give time to allow for passengers to get off. For this lab two codes were created to run through the park, on of the codes was created using mostly the celerate command with at least one MotorSpeed command. While the second code had to be made using mostly MotorSpeed code. This lab took a lot of trial and error for the first code that was created since it was using the celerate code it was measured in seconds so it took discussion comparing as a group after a test that was not perfect what exactly needed to be changed because you were dealing with time and also having to vary the power input for the motors.
After all the tests were done a Matlab code was created to find efficiency of the codes and various information collected while the AEV was running through the path. With the Matlab code the graphs of power vs. time, power vs. distance, velocity vs. distance, kinetic energy vs. distance, and propulsion efficiency vs. distance. This information will be used for future reference in creating the final designs to make the most efficient version.
