Get an Exclusive Look at the HiL Development of the New V16 Bugatti Tourbillon Engine
Hybrid powertrains are redefining performance in the hypercar segment—combining zero-emission driving with extreme engine capabilities. But with this innovation comes complexity, especially in control system development. As the number of degrees of freedom increases, so does the need for advanced tools to validate, calibrate, and refine control strategies.
In this webinar, Bugatti-Rimac's Science and Model Integration Manager, Giulio Boccardo, and GammaTech Engineering's Luca Cambriglia will showcase how a GT-SUITE real-time engine model was developed and integrated into a modular Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) testing platform for the groundbreaking V16 Bugatti Tourbillon engine. From physical model reduction to real-time deployment on a dSPACE SCALEXIO system, you’ll get an inside look at how predictive simulation enables faster, safer, and more precise ECU development.
What You’ll Learn:
- How the GT-SUITE V16 Tourbillon engine model was reduced for real-time simulation and adapted into 4- and 8-cylinder configurations
- The integration process with a full-vehicle Simulink model and deployment on a dSPACE SCALEXIO HiL simulator
- Performance insights from closed-loop HiL testing and the benefits of using a physically predictive engine model for ECU validation
About our speakers
Dr. Giulio Boccardo, Data Science and Model Integration Manager | Bugatti-Rimac
After getting a PhD in Energy Engineering at Politecnico di Torino in 2018 related to heavy duty diesel engines numerical simulation and testing, Giulio focused on XiL techniques applications serving as technical manager in Powertech Engineering. Today he works as Data Science and Model Integration Manager in Bugatti-Rimac, where he is responsible of data management and XiL toolchain to support virtual product development and optimization.
Luca Cambriglia, Staff Engineer | GammaTech Engineering
Luca holds an MSc in Automotive Engineering from Politecnico di Torino. He joined POWERTECH in 2021 after working as a research associate in the Energy Department at Politecnico. He specializes in multi-physics simulation using GT-SUITE, with experience across domains including vehicle integration, thermal management, engine performance, and XiL (X-in-the-Loop) applications. He is currently a Senior Engineer at GammaTech Engineering, where he leads the Integration and XiL team.
