A method for predicting change in an operating state, e.g. state of life, for an electrical energy storage device includes establishing a plurality of values for an operating parameter, e.g. current, of the electrical energy storage device and, for each respective value, determining a corresponding change in the operating state for the energy storage device based upon the respective value. Preferably, change in the state of life is determined based upon an integration of electrical current, a depth of discharge of the energy storage device, and an operating temperature factor of the electrical energy storage device.

A preferred input torque for a hybrid powertrain is determined within a solution space of feasible input torques in accordance with a plurality of powertrain system constraints that results in a minimum overall powertrain system loss. System power losses and battery utilization costs are calculated at feasible input torques and a solution for the input torque corresponding to the minimum total powertrain system loss is converged upon to determine the preferred input torque.

Preferred operating points for a vehicle powertrain including an engine and a transmission are determined in accordance with a comprehensive operational mapping of input and output conditions and corresponding aggregate system losses corresponding to engine and transmission losses. In a hybrid transmission application, additional losses from motors and batteries are aggregated into the system losses and battery constraints are considered in determining preferred operating points.

A hybrid diesel-electric powertrain includes an electric motor in electrical communication with a traction battery, a diesel engine in power-flow communication with the electric motor and with an automatic transmission, and a controller. The diesel engine and electric motor are configured to provide a combined torque to the automatic transmission. The powertrain further includes an exhaust aftertreatment device in fluid communication with the diesel engine. The controller is configured to: receive a regeneration request from the exhaust aftertreatment device; determine if a state-of-charge of the fraction battery is within a predetermined range of a target value; initiate a regeneration event if the state-of-charge of the traction battery is within the predetermined range of the target value; receive an immediate torque request from the automatic transmission; and provide a torque command to the electric motor in response to the immediate torque request.

A method for controlling a transmission of a powertrain system includes executing a single source shortest path search to identify a preferred shift path originating with an initial powertrain state and terminating at a target powertrain state, wherein the single source shortest path search employs transition-specific costs and situational costs to identify the preferred shift path. The preferred shift path is executed to achieve the target powertrain state.

A multi-mode vehicular powertrain system includes an internal combustion engine fluidly coupled to an exhaust aftertreatment system including a catalytic device and an electric machine electrically coupled to a battery. A method for effecting light-off of the catalytic device includes monitoring an output torque request for the powertrain system and determining a preferred engine operating point having a minimum engine operating cost within a predetermined engine operating region for catalyst light-off. When a state-of-charge of the battery is not approaching a predetermined state-of-charge limit, operation of the engine is controlled to the preferred engine operating point and operation of the electric machine is controlled to a machine operating point wherein the combination of engine torque at the preferred engine operating point and electric machine torque at the machine operating point satisfies the output torque request.
