Abstract

A method includes defining an application operating cycle and a number of behavior matrices for a hybrid power train that powers the application, each behavior matrix corresponding to operations of the hybrid power train operating in a parallel configuration. The method includes determining a number of behavior sequences corresponding to the behavior matrices and applied sequentially to the application operating cycle, confirming a feasibility of each of the behavior sequences, determining a fitness value corresponding to each of the feasible behavior sequences, in response to the fitness value determining whether a convergence value indicates that a successful convergence has occurred, and in response to determining that a successful convergence has occurred, determining a calibration matrix in response to the behavior matrices and fitness values. The method includes providing the calibration matrix to a hybrid power train controller.
