Synopsis

Written by two of the most respected, experienced and well-known researchers and developers in the field (e.g, Kiencke worked at Bosch where he helped develop anti-breaking system and engine control; Nielsen has lead joint research projects with Scania AB, Mecel AB, Saab Automobile AB, Volvo AB, Fiat GM Powertrain AB, and DaimlerChrysler. Reflecting the trend to optimization through integrative approaches for engine, driveline and vehicle control, this valuable book enables control engineers to understand engine and vehicle models necessary for controller design and also introduces mechanical engineers to vehicle-specific signal processing and automatic control. Emphasis on measurement, comparisons between performance and modelling, and realistic examples derive from the authors' unique industrial experience . The second edition offers new or expanded topics such as diesel-engine modelling, diagnosis and anti-jerking control, and vehicle modelling and parameter estimation. With only a few exceptions, the approaches

About this title

From the Back Cover

Advances in automotive control systems continue to enhance safety and comfort and to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. Reflecting the trend to optimization through integrative approaches for engine, driveline and vehicle control, this book enables control engineers to understand engine and vehicle models necessary for controller design and also introduces mechanical engineers to vehicle-specific signal processing and automatic control. The emphasis on measurement, comparisons between performance and modelling, and realistic examples derive from the authors’ industrial experience at Bosch and interactions within IFAC and SAE. The second edition offers new or expanded topics such as diesel-engine modelling, diagnosis and anti-jerking control, and vehicle modelling and parameter estimation. The book addresses professional engineers as well as students. With only a few exceptions, the approaches are close to those utilized in actual vehicles, rather than being purely theoretical.

Synopsis

Automotive control has become a driving factor in automotive innovation over the last twenty five years. In order to meet the enhanced requirements for lower fuel consumption, lower exhaust emissions, improved safety as well as comfort and convenience functions, automotive control had to be applied. This book allows control engineers to understand engine and vehicle models necessary for controller design and introduces mechanical engineers into vehicle-specific signal processing and automatic control. With only a few exceptions, the approaches are close to some of those utilized in actual vehicles, rather than being purely theoretical. The authors have large experiences in industrial development (Bosch) as well as in academic research. Contents include: Thermodynamic Engine Cycles Engine Management Systems Engine Control Systems Driveline Control Vehicle Modeling Vehicle Parameters and States Vehicle Control Systems Road and Driver Models
