## Driver: Overspeed
Both functions control the vehicle's behaviour on uneven road sections (slope ≠ 0) and can be configured in the [Job File](#job-file)'s Driver Assist Tab. Overspeed is designed to model an average driver's behaviour without the aid of driver assistance systems. Eco-Roll represents an optional driver assistance feature. For this reason vehicles without Eco-Roll should always have the Overspeed function enabled.

In VECTO a vehicle may either support use cases 1 and 2 or all three use cases.
Predictive cruise control is only considered on highway sections of the simulated driving cycle (see [sistance-based driving cycle](#engineering-mode-target-speed-distance-based-cycle).

In declaration mode, the whole long-haul cycle is considered as highway. Moreover, the section from 29760m to 96753m of the regional delivery cycle is considered as highway.

## Dual Fuel Engine
<div class="engineering">
VECTO supports to simulate vehicles equipped with dual-fuel engines, i.e. two different fuels are used simulateously. Therefore, the engine model contains a second fuel comsumption map and VECTO interpolates the fuel consumtion from both consumption maps. In the .vmod and .vsum files the consumption of every fuel is reported. The CO2 emissions are te sum of CO2 emissions from both fuels.
In case a WHR system is used with a dual-fuel vehicle the WHR map shall be provided in the fuel consumption map of the primary fuel.

Advanced Driver Assistant Systems are considered in Declaration Mode via a technology dependent and vehicle group specific bonus on the fuel cosumption as described in the followin.

In Declaration mode VECTO applies a correction factor to take into account certain Advanced Driver Assistant System technologies. The following Technologies are currently considered:
VECTO simulates certain Advanced Driver Assistant System technologies in-the-loop (see [Engine Stop/Start](#advanced-driver-assistant-systems-engine-stopstart), [Eco-Roll](#advanced-driver-assistant-systems-eco-roll), [Predictive Cruise Control](#advanced-driver-assistant-systems-predictive-cruise-control).

A PCC system can be declared as input to the simulation tool if either the functionalities set out in points 1) and 2) or points 1), 2) and 3) are covered.
Out of this four technologies as listed above only 11 combinations are valid. For every valid ADAS technology combination VECTO reduces the final fuel consumtion by a certain percentage depending on the vehicle group, driving cycle, and payload.
The following table maps the valid combinations of ADAS systems to a so-called "ADAS Combination".
