Abstract: A system for damping control for a vehicle includes a parameter component and a damping adjustment component. The parameter component is configured to determine one or more driving parameters of a vehicle. The one or more driving parameters include a velocity of the vehicle. The damping adjustment component is configured to adjust damping of suspension of the vehicle during driving based on the one or more driving parameters. The damping adjustment component is also configured to adjust damping of suspension at a zero velocity for a threshold time period in response to transitioning from a non-zero velocity to the zero velocity.

Abstract: A vehicle includes one or more actuatable mudflap portions provided to the vehicle, capable of deployment and retraction to respectively increase and decrease deflection of wheel-spray and receives vehicle sensor information indicating driving conditions. The vehicle examines the sensor information to determine the presence of a first condition predefined as suitable for deployment of at least one of the mudflap portions. Further, the vehicle examines the sensor information to determine that no one or more of second conditions predefined as blocking deployment are met and, responsive to the presence of the first condition and the absence of the second conditions, automatically deploys the at least one mudflap portion.

Abstract: A vehicle includes at least one drive wheel, a powerplant, a clutch, and a controller. The powerplant is configured to generate and deliver power to the at least one drive wheel. The clutch is disposed between the at least one drive wheel and the powerplant. The controller is programmed to, in response to detecting the at least one drive wheel disengaging the ground during a vehicle jump, open the clutch to disconnect the at least one drive wheel from the powerplant.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to correct clear vision errors in a vehicle steering system are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a first sensor and a second sensor to measure a current position of a steering column and a current position of a steering wheel in a vehicle steering system. The example apparatus further includes a non-uniformity manager to map the current position to an offset, and an active steering system to apply the offset to adjust the current position of the steering wheel to a nominal position of the steering wheel to compensate for a clear vision error.

Abstract: A vehicle control system may include a first friction brake member that rotates with a wheel of the vehicle, a second friction brake member that is displaced from an initial position to initiate contact with the first friction brake member to apply braking torque to the wheel, a displacement assembly operably coupled to the second friction brake member to move the second friction brake member responsive to a brake torque request, a sensor network to measure displacement information of the displacement assembly from the initial position to a point of contact between the first and second friction brake members, and a control module operably coupled to the sensor network to record the displacement information to define recorded displacement information, and to determine tapering of the second friction brake member based on the recorded displacement information.

Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for generating visual and audible aids for a human that is driving a vehicle. In one example, a visual indication is provided during conditions when a wheel speed exceeds a vehicle reference speed by more than a threshold speed. In another example, an audible indication is provided during conditions when a vehicle speed exceeds a vehicle reference speed by more than a threshold speed.
