Abstract
A method includes manufacturing a first assembly having an application requirements module that interprets a contemporaneous performance specification, and an energy partitioning module that provides an electric motor torque target, a battery power flux target, and an internal combustion engine torque target. The method further includes manufacturing a second assembly having an engine control module that controls an internal combustion engine in response to the internal combustion engine torque target. The method includes integrating the first assembly and the second assembly with a third assembly to form a completed hybrid power train, where the third assembly includes a datalink that receives the internal combustion engine torque target from the first assembly and provides the internal combustion engine torque target to the second assembly.
