Abstract: A system is configured to store a relationship data set of a plurality of diagnostic estimators and a plurality of failure modes, each failure mode represents a type of failure that can occur with a sensor or a vehicle component of a vehicle system, each diagnostic estimator is associated with a respective subset of the failure modes, each subset defines a control space within the vehicle system that contains at least one of (i) one or more sensors or (ii) one or more vehicle components. The system is configured to store a healthy diagnostic vector regarding nominal operational parameters of the vehicle system; acquire diagnostic information regarding current operational parameters of the vehicle system to generate an error diagnostic vector; apply the error diagnostic vector to the healthy diagnostic vector to generate a ratio diagnostic vector; and apply the ratio diagnostic vector to generate a value for each failure mode.

Abstract: A method for increasing a temperature of an exhaust gas to a target temperature is provided. The method includes determining, by a controller, a target energy of the exhaust gas and determining, by the controller, a target emissions based the target energy. The method further includes determining, by the controller, a tradeoff in a performance of an engine corresponding to one or more of the target emissions, an engine speed, and a driver demand power and determining, by the controller, an allowable heater power based on the tradeoff. The method further includes operating, by the controller, a heater with a heater power command not exceeding the allowable heater power to heat the exhaust gas to the target temperature.

Abstract: A method for operating an engine fueling system to manage fuel in an accumulator supplying fuel to an engine including multiple cylinders comprising monitoring fuel load in the accumulator, determining that the engine is operating in a cylinder deactivation mode such as a skip-fire mode during which one or more fueling events to one or more of the cylinders is being skipped, and controlling a supply of fuel from a fuel pump to the accumulator during the cylinder deactivation mode operation. In embodiments, controlling the supply of fuel includes causing fuel to be supplied from the fuel pump to the accumulator if the monitored fuel load is less than or equal to a first fuel load, and causing fuel to be not supplied from the fuel pump to the accumulator if the monitored fuel load is greater than the first load value. Controlling the supply of fuel may comprise controlling the supply of fuel during each fueling event cycle of each deactivated cylinder.

Abstract: A system includes a controller configured to store a relationship matrix of a plurality of diagnostic estimators and a plurality of failure modes, each failure mode represents a type of failure that can occur with (i) a sensor or (ii) a vehicle component of a vehicle system, each diagnostic estimator is associated with a respective subset of the failure modes, each respective subset defines a control volume within the vehicle system that contains at least one of (i) one or more sensors or (ii) one or more vehicle components; store a healthy diagnostic vector regarding nominal operational parameters of the vehicle system; acquire diagnostic information regarding current operational parameters of the vehicle system to generate an error diagnostic vector; divide the error diagnostic vector by the healthy diagnostic vector to generate a ratio diagnostic vector; multiply the ratio diagnostic vector with the relationship matrix to generate a value for each failure mode.

Abstract: A system and method of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) in an internal combustion engine are provided. The EGR system includes a first EGR flow path and a second EGR flow path independent of the first EGR flow path that are each configured to recirculate high pressure exhaust from the exhaust system back to the engine intake system. The system includes a controller in operable communication with the EGR system configured to selectively control an amount of EGR flow through at least one of the first and second EGR flow paths.

Abstract: One embodiment is a method comprising operating an internal combustion engine system including multiple cylinders structured to combust a charge mixture and to output exhaust to an exhaust manifold, an electronic control system structured to control operation of the engine system and an exhaust manifold pressure (EMP) sensor structured to provide data to the electronic control system and performing an air-fuel ratio (AFR) imbalance diagnostic with the electronic control system. The AFR imbalance diagnostic may comprise the acts of processing the data to provide at least one output metric sample, determining an output metric statistic based on the at least one output metric sample, evaluating the output metric statistic relative to one or more predetermined criteria to identify an AFR imbalance condition, and providing an operator perceptible indication of the AFR imbalance condition.
