Vehicle Active Safety

The article is devoted to the issue of improving the autonomous vehicles safety. The anti-lock braking system was chosen as the object of the study, since it is one of the components of the vehicle active safety during emergency braking. Its functioning varies depending on parameters such as vehicle type, transmission type, external and internal steering wheel angles. It is necessary to parameterize correctly the electronic control unit of the anti-lock braking system depending on the specific values of these parameters. For this, a software module was developed that reads the values of the vehicle parameters from a file and sends their array to the electronic control unit. Then we can check the result: how the block responded to the sent request -positively or negatively. All this will speed up the parameterization process, increase its accuracy, preventing the occurrence of operator errors during its implementation.

In this study, it was aimed to operate today’s compression ignition engines easily in dual-fuel mode with a developed electronic control unit. Especially, diesel engines with mechanical fuel system can be easily converted to common-rail fuel system with a developed electronic control unit. Also, with this developed electronic control unit, old technology compression ignition engines can be turned into dual-fuel mode easily. Thus, thanks to the flexibility of engine maps to be loaded into the electronic control unit, diesel engines can conveniently be operated with alternative gas fuels and diesel dual fuel. In particular, hydrogen, an alternative, environmentally friendly, and clean gas fuel, can easily be used with diesel engines by pilot spraying. Software and hardware development of electronic control unit are made, in order to operate a diesel engine with diesel+hydrogen dual fuel. Finally, developed electronic control unit was reviewed on 1500 r/min stable engine speed on different hydrogen energy rates (0%, 15%, 30%, and 45% hydrogen) according to thermic efficiency and emissions (CO, total unburned hydrocarbons, NOx, and smoke), and apart from NOx emissions, a significant improvement has been obtained. There was no increased NOx emission on 15% hydrogen working condition; however, on 45% hydrogen working condition, a dramatic increase arose.

Dunia otomotif berkembang sangat cepat, contohnya pada sistem pengapian kendaraan, mulai dari penggunaan platina, Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI), dan sekarang Electronic Control Unit (ECU) yang memerlukan sistem kelistrikan. Sumber listrik utama pada kendaraan adalah baterai yang menyuplai arus searah. Hasil putaran mesin di ubah oleh dinamo isi menjadi energi listrik, salah satu fungsinya untuk mengaktifkan material pada komponen baterai yang tidak bisa terus menerus aktif menyuplai daya listrik. Maka dari itu perawatan  pada aki harus dilakukan secara berkala, mulai dari mengecek kondisi baterai sampai mengganti dengan baterai yang baru. Pada saat pergantian baterai, terminal baterai dilepas dan dipasang kembali. Dalam hal ini, terdeteksi terjadinya kesalahan pada saat pemasangan terminal baterai, baik karena kelalaian, terburu-buru dan hal lain yang memacu serta produksi kendaraan hanya memberikan indikasi kutub baterai dengan tanda dan warna,  yang tidak bisa menjamin hal tersebut.  Dampak yang ditimbulkan adalah kendaraan tidak dapat dihidupkan. Current Protector adalah sebuah alat yang dapat mendeteksi, mengamankan dan memberitahukan apabila terjadi kesalahan pada saat pemasangan terminal baterai. Alat ini tersusun oleh komponen-komponen elektronik dioda, relay, resistor, light emitting diode (LED), Buzzer  dan sekering. Sehingga, meskipun pemasangan terminal aki tertukar, kendaraan masih dapat dihidupkan.

Requirement Specifications

Current Requirement Engineering research must face the need to deal with the increasing scale of today's requirement specifications. One important and recent research direction is handling the consistency assurance between large scale specifications and many additional regulations (e.g. national and international norms and standards), which the specifications must consider or satisfy. For example, the specification volume for a single electronic control unit (ECU) in the automotive domain sums up to 3000 to 5000 pages distributed over 30 to 300 individual documents (specification and regulations). In this work, we present an approach to automatically classify the requirements in a set of specification documents and regulations to content topics in order to improve review activities in identifying cross-document inconsistencies. An essential success criteria for this approach from an industrial perspective is a sufficient classification quality with minimal manual effort. In this paper, we show the results of an evaluation in the domain of automotive specifications at Mercedes-Benz passenger cars. The results show that one manually classified specification is sufficient to derive automatic classifications for other documents within this domain with satisfactory recall and precision. So, the approach of using content topics is not only effective but also efficient in large scale industrial environments.

The Right

On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) regulations impose missing combustions detection within a wide portion of the engine operating range. Missing combustions can be caused either by ignition (misfire) or injection (misfuel) system failures. Missing combustions can damage the catalyst and cause abrupt pollutants increases (especially HC), but misfuels are not as detrimental as misfires, both from the emissions and the after treatment system life point of view. It would be important for the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to be informed not only about the fault event, but also about its type, for the purpose of setting the right recovery strategy. The aim of this paper is to analyze missing combustion phenomena, in order to find out if a fault recognition strategy able to distinguish between misfire and misfuel can be setup. Different approaches can be found in the literature to diagnose missing combustions: many of them are based on the speed signal analysis, both in time and frequency domains, others use the knock accelerometer signal, or the exhaust manifold pressure information. A Universal Exhaust Gas Oxygen (UEGO) sensor can also be used. Usually diagnosis methodologies consist in observing signals perturbations subsequent to the malfunction event. Observable consequences of missing combustions are, for example, a sudden lack of indicated torque, causing vibrations and speed fluctuations, an increasing in exhaust gases Oxygen content, anomalous exhaust pressure ripples, etc. Many phenomena interact influencing in different ways the engine behavior, during and after the fault event: their effect can depend on the fault cause, thus helping the recognition. The first combustion taking place in the faulty cylinder after a misfire (post-misfiring cycle) usually leads to higher indicated pressure and torque levels if compared to standard values for the same operating conditions, while the same cannot be said for the post-misfueling combustion. On the other side, Air-Fuel Ratio (AFR) assumes different trends during the misfiring and post-misfiring cycles, with respect to misfueling and post-misfueling cycles. A 4 cylinders 1.2 liters spark ignition port injected engine, equipped with a programmable Electronic Control Unit (ECU) has been tested on the test bench, inducing both misfires and misfuels, over a wide engine operating range, while monitoring the engine faulty behavior. Misfire and misfuel-related phenomena have been analyzed showing their “signature” on indicated pressure and torque, engine speed and Air-Fuel Ratio measured signals, in order to define the most reliable recognition strategy.
