Lithium-ion batteries are facing difficulties in an aspect of protection towards battery thermal safety issues which leads to performance degradation or thermal runaway. To negate these issues an effective battery thermal management system is absolute pre-requisite to safeguard the lithium-ion batteries. In this context to support the future endeavours and to improvise battery thermal management system (BTMS) design and its operation the article reveals on three aspects through the analysis of scientific literatures. First, this paper collates the present research progress and status of various battery management strategies employed to lithium-ion batteries. Further, to promote stable and efficient BTMS operation as an initiation the extensive attention is paid towards roles of BTMS electronic control unit and also presented the essential functionality need to consider for designing best BTMS control strategy. Finally, elucidates the various unconventional assessment tools can be employed to recognize the suitable thermal management technique and also for establish optimum BTMS operation based on requirements. From the experience of this article additionally delivers some of the research gaps identified and the essential areas need to focus for the development of superior lithium-ion BTMS technology. All the contents reveal in this article will hopefully assist to the design commercially suitable effective BTMS technology especially for electro-mobility application.

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.

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.
