Abstract: A STE for automated testing of ground combat vehicle software application to validate vehicle software logic provides a system and method to conduct interactive (manual) testing of the vehicle software while under development, record information related to the interactive testing activities, including but not limited to tester inputs and expected outcomes, and perform automated testing of the combat vehicle software application using the recorded information. Preferably, reconfiguration of the STE to support changes that arise due to the evolution of the combat vehicle software application system and the subsystems under control of the evolving software system is provided.

Abstract: A conductor which is coupled to a rotatably supported first shaft and a magnetic field generating device which is coupled to a rotatably supported second shaft are rotatable relative to each other. A relative position changing device for changing the relative position between the conductor and the magnetic field generating device is provided therebetween, and a torque splitting device is provided between the first and second shafts. The degree at which the conductor cuts across the magnetic flux in the magnetic field is changed by means of the relative position changing device. The input torque is distributed between the first and second shafts by the torque splitting device. The torque splitting device includes multiplying gear unit provided between the first shaft and the conductor. If the torque splitting device is a planetary gear unit, the initial setting of torque distribution is easy. A lock-up clutch is provided between the conductor and the magnetic field generating device.
