    Abstract: An engine cylinder misfire detection system is provided that detects changes in exhaust manifold pressure (EMP) fluctuations, compares the EMP fluctuations with diagnostic thresholds determined with other engine characteristic information obtained from engine sensor data, and determines whether a cylinder misfire has occurred. A method of monitoring and detecting EMP fluctuations in combination with one or more sensed engine characteristics is disclosed to determine an engine cylinder misfire in a cycle of an internal combustion engine having at least one cylinder. The actuation approaches of the present invention include one or more processes for a cylinder of an engine associated with a determination of various load variables including fresh air flow, engine type, engine data inputs, and analytical determinants.

    Abstract: A system and method of detecting fueling imbalance(s) in an internal combustion engine is provided. The method includes receiving data regarding an oxygen content of engine exhaust for the engine operating at a cycle rate. Frequency component analysis is performed comprising a filtering operation on the received oxygen content data. The filtering is done at the cycle rate of the engine or harmonics thereof to obtain filtered oxygen content data. Then, the method/system determines at least one of: 1) one or more angles of the engine at which the filtered oxygen content data exhibits a first amplitude value characteristic relative to amplitude values at other angles; and 2) a shape of the filtered oxygen content data obtained by sampling at pre-defined engine angles. The method/system then identifies a cylinder experiencing a fueling imbalance responsive to the determined at least one of one or more angle(s) and shape of the data.

    Abstract: The present invention provides for predicting peak cylinder temperatures above which knock in an engine may become more frequent and then provides one or more actuation approaches to reduce the knock of the engine while maintaining engine performance. The actuation approaches of the present invention include one or more of direct injection, engine gas recirculation, and spark retarding, where the application of one or more the actuation approaches is determined based upon using operational and engine characteristic inputs as well as modeling and estimation values as inputs in a feedforward control methodology.

    Abstract: A system, method, and engine control module for energy ignition management of a combustion engine. The method may be performed by the system or the engine control module. The method includes determining operating conditions of the combustion engine, setting ignition energy characteristics for a dedicated EGR cylinder and a non-dedicated EGR cylinder based on the operating conditions. The ignition energy characteristics include at least one of magnitude of energy, current, voltage, and ignition energy duration. At least one characteristic of the ignition energy characteristics for the non-dedicated EGR cylinder is different than a corresponding characteristic for the dedicated EGR cylinder. The method also includes energizing ignition aid plugs based on the ignition energy characteristics.
