[0002] In the process of vehicle development, since design and development will generate a large amount of data, a large amount of design and simulation software is needed, and the development process basically requires the cooperation of multiple departments, which means that a large amount of task allocation and task summary will be involved. There will also be a lot of communication work in the process, cross-departmental and even cross-company and cross-regional communication, and the large amount of task allocation, simulation and design software involved in this also have high requirements on the local computer configuration of engineers. The above-mentioned work tasks bring about problems such as software islands, personnel islands, and data islands.

[0003] In addition, as my country's share of the global automotive industry continues to increase, competition among OEMs is becoming increasingly fierce. Improving R&D efficiency and shortening R&D cycles have become necessary ways to enhance the competitiveness of OEMs. With the help of digital means, R&D efficiency and quality can be improved. However, in the automotive industry, there is still a lack of a digital R&D system that runs through design and simulation. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the problem that the prior art lacks a digital system for design and simulation throughout the entire vehicle development process, the present invention provides a vehicle development method, system, device and storage medium based on design and simulation process, which overcomes the above problems.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the first aspect of the present invention discloses a vehicle development method based on design and simulation process, comprising the following steps:

[0006] Step A: According to the business activities performed by the vehicle manufacturer for R&D tasks and models, business software is sorted and classified to form a list of commercial simulation software and design software, and nodes, users and applications are bound based on the software list to establish a basic resource layer at the software level that supports multiple disciplines;

[0007] Step B: Establish a simulation cloud platform based on commercial simulation software and formulate a simulation cloud platform scheduling strategy according to business conditions to achieve job management, node management, user management, queue management and application management of the basic resource layer;

[0008] Step C: respectively formulate a research and development process management module, a data management module, a module management module and a task management module according to the business situation;

[0009] Step D: After the R&D task is issued, it is implemented in the order of the four modules specified in step C, and during the implementation process, the basic software resources of the basic resource layer are called through the simulation cloud platform to complete the design and simulation of the R&D task, thereby completing the R&D task.
