A Distributed Control System Framework for Automotive Powertrain Control with OSEK Standard and CAN Network

Optimal Design of Automotive Hybrid Powertrain Systems

Alternative powertrains for automotive applications aim at improving emissions and fuel economy. Lack of experience with these relatively new technologies makes them ideal applications for computer-based modeling and simulation studies. There is a variety of configurations, control strategies, and design variable choices that can be made. If mathematical models exist, rigorous optimization tech...

Design of observer-based feedback control for time-delay systems with application to automotive powertrain control

A new approach for observer-based feedback control of time-delay systems is developed. Timedelays in systems lead to characteristic equations of infinite dimension, making the systems difficult to control with classical control methods. In this paper, a recently developed approach, based on the Lambert W function, is used to address this difficulty by designing an observer-based state feedback ...

A Rapid Measurement System For Transmission Efficiency Of Automotive Powertrain

The current annual inspection of automotives is non-disassembly detection. It can merely measure the power output of automotive chassis, and get inaccurate results. There are few cumbersome and low precision methods for measuring the power output of the engine, and it is difficult to obtain transmission efficiency of automotive powertrain. A new measuring system is developed by adding reverse d...
