Predicting Vehicle Usage with Clojure
summary
An open-source vehicle energy simulator called Economy of Motion uses Clojure to implement a backward-facing model with plugable loads and composable powertrain components. The prototype reproduces a reference conventional result (26.6 mpg vs 26.7 expected) and a hybrid baseline (30 mpg vs 31 expected) and then matches Prius-like performance (≈50 mpg) after swapping engine efficiency, drag, weight and accessory assumptions. Code shape mirrors drivetrain blocks, compares results to ADVISOR, and outputs per-cycle fuel and component power traces.
