摘要: A method of identifying air flow faults within a cooling system of an automobile comprises measuring the temperature of coolant entering a heat exchanger for the cooling system, measuring the temperature of coolant leaving the heat exchanger, and measuring the temperature of ambient air that is flowing into the heat exchanger, calculating Actual Delta T by subtracting the temperature of coolant leaving the heat exchanger from the temperature of coolant entering the heat exchanger, calculating Expected Delta T, wherein Expected Delta T is a pre-determined value of an expected difference between the temperature of the coolant entering the heat exchanger and the temperature of the coolant leaving the heat exchanger, calculating Effective Delta T by subtracting Expected Delta T from Actual Delta T, and identifying a fault in the air flow through the heat exchanger based on the value of Effective Delta T.

摘要: A method for use with a vehicle having one or more subsystems includes receiving vehicle health management (VHM) information via a controller indicative of a state of health of the subsystem. The VHM information is based on prior testing results of the subsystem. The method includes determining a required testing profile using the testing results, applying the testing profile to the subsystem to thereby control a state of the subsystem, and measuring a response of the subsystem to the applied testing profile. The method also includes recording additional testing results in memory of the controller that is indicative of a response of the subsystem to the applied testing profile. The vehicle includes a plurality of subsystems and a controller configured to execute the method.

摘要: A perception module of a spatial monitoring system to monitor and characterize a spatial environment proximal to an autonomous vehicle is described. A method for evaluating the perception module includes capturing and storing a plurality of frames of data associated with a driving scenario for the autonomous vehicle, and executing the perception module to determine an actual spatial environment for the driving scenario, wherein the actual spatial environment for the driving scenario is stored in the controller. The perception module is executed to determine an estimated spatial environment for the driving scenario based upon the stored frames of data associated with the driving scenario, and the estimated spatial environment is compared to the actual spatial environment for the driving scenario. A first performance index for the perception module is determined based upon the comparing, and a fault can be detected.

摘要: Methods and apparatus are provided for determining an offset detection for a fuel level sensor fault. The method includes receiving an electrical resistance reading from a potentiometer of a fuel level sensor and generating an estimated fuel level based on an established fuel usage table that references the electrical resistance reading. The fuel level sensitivity is calculated based on the change in electrical resistance readings divided by the change in the estimated fuel levels (R/F). The fuel level sensitivity is compared to a predetermined sensitivity curve to determine any necessary offset to the electrical resistance reading. Finally, the fuel usage table is updated with the offset to the electrical resistance reading.

摘要: A system for monitoring a battery assembly includes a processing device configured to receive measurement data from a plurality of battery components, and input the measurement data to a battery model configured to determine parametric data. Based on the battery model, the processing device is configured to acquire the parametric data, extract statistical information based on at least one parameter of each battery component, and input the statistical information to a failure identification module that includes a first classifier configured to determine whether the battery assembly is in a failure condition based on the statistical information. The processing device is configured to output a health indicator having a first value indicating that the battery assembly is healthy based on first classifier determining that the battery assembly is in the healthy condition, and a faulty value based on the first classifier determining that the battery assembly is in a failure condition.

摘要: A motor vehicle motion control health monitoring system includes sensors and actuators disposed on the motor vehicle. The sensors measure real-time static and dynamic telemetry data about the motor vehicle, and the actuators alter static and dynamic behavior of the motor vehicle. A control module has a processor, a memory, and input/output (I/O) ports. The processor executes program code portions stored in the memory, the program code portions include: an offline portion that collects telemetry data from the motor vehicle, performs failure analysis on the telemetry data and allocates tasks based on the failure analysis; and an online portion that analyzes the telemetry data for failures within specific sensors, actuators, or functions that utilize systems of sensors and/or actuators. The online portion mitigates deviations in the telemetry data by sending a correction to the one or more sensors, actuators, and/or functions of a motor vehicle motion control system.

摘要: A method of using an adaptive fault diagnostic system for motor vehicles is provided. A diagnostic tool collects unlabeled data associated with a motor vehicle, and the unlabeled data is transmitted to a central computer. An initial diagnostic model and labeled training data associated with previously identified failure modes and known health conditions are transmitted to the central computer. The central computer executes a novelty detection technique to determine whether the unlabeled data is novelty data corresponding with a new failure mode or normal data corresponding with one of the previously identified failure modes or known health conditions. The central computer selects an informative sample from the novelty data. A repair technician inputs a label for the informative sample, and the central computer propagates the label from the informative sample to the associated novelty data. The central computer updates the labeled training data to include the labeled novelty data.
