Abstract: To examine the influence of intercooler thermal inertia on transient engine operation, a 2D model of an air-to-air, cross-flow heat exchanger has been developed. Finned passages of heat exchanger ...

Abstract: This paper presents novel approaches to nonlinear engine fuel controller and cylinder pressure observer designs based on mean torque production and cylinder-by-cylinder models. Sliding mode controllers ...

Abstract: Engine models that are used for nonlinear diesel engine control, state estimation, and model-based diagnostics are presented in this paper. By collecting, modifying, and adding to current available ...

Abstract: Currently, advanced control systems implemented on production ground vehicles have the goal of promoting maneuverability and stability. With proper coordination of steering and braking action, these ...

Abstract: Constant inertia engine models have been used for years by control engineers to attain real-time engine simulations. The accuracy of the estimation largely depends on the selection of the ...
