Abstract: This report will present the results of the initial study to develop an accurate working model of the 40 foot New Flyer Bus powered by the Cummins C8.3+ 280G CNG engine (Figure 1.1). The main focus of the study is the modeling of the vehicle dynamics using step input acceleration data. Other parts of the research include gear shifting and torque production from the CNG engine, all of which are required to produce a completely simulationcapable bus model.
