An active damping system for a driveline includes a prop shaft configured to transmit engine power from an engine to a load, a sealed damper housing, and an active damping fluid contained within the sealed damper housing. A viscosity of the active damping fluid is changeable based on a torsional vibration of the prop shaft. The active damping system further includes a piston fixed to a side of the prop shaft and in communication with the active damping fluid. The piston is configured to rotate about an axis of the prop shaft. The system further includes a viscosity changing unit in communication with the active damping fluid, and a controller operatively connected to the viscosity changing unit. The controller is configured to cause the viscosity changing unit to change a viscosity of the active damping fluid. The viscosity of the active damping fluid changes the torsional vibration.

Methods and systems for controlling torque for a front axle and a rear axle of a vehicle with independent front and rear propulsion systems are provided. A data unit is configured to obtain data for one or more parameters of a vehicle while the vehicle is being driven. A processor is coupled to the data unit, and is configured to provide torque to at least facilitate providing torque the front axle and the rear axle independently based on the one or more parameters.

A powertrain includes a propulsion system having first and second torque sources, and first and second drive axles respectively connected to and independently driven by the first and second torque sources. A permissible range of torque contribution from the torque sources to the respective first and second drive axles is defined by a component torque window. The powertrain includes sensors for detecting a dynamic driving maneuver of a vehicle having the powertrain. A controller executes a method to adjust a size and/or orientation of a chassis torque window during the detected dynamic driving maneuver, determine an optimally efficient axle torque operating point that falls on a torque line within the component torque window in proximity to the chassis torque window, and command the torque contribution via transmission of torque control signals to the first and second torque sources to achieve the optimally efficient axle torque operating point.

A method of monitoring performance of an electric motor includes calculating an actual input power and an expected input power of the electric motor. A power difference between the actual input power and the expected input power is recursively calculated over at least one period of an electrical cycle of the electric motor to determine a variance in the power difference during the at least one period of the electrical cycle. The variance in the power difference is compared to a threshold value to determine if the variance in the power difference is greater than the threshold value or less than the threshold value. The control module may signal that the electric motor is not operating within allowable operating parameters when the variance in the power difference is less than the threshold value.

Methods and apparatus are provided for moving a receiver associated with a hitch frame of a vehicle. The method includes receiving data indicating a hand wheel angle; determining, with a processor, a position for the receiver relative to the hitch frame based on the hand wheel angle; and outputting one or more control signals to a motor coupled to the receiver to move the receiver relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle based on the determination.

A method of controlling operation of an all-wheel-drive vehicle having independent power-sources includes driving the vehicle via at least one of a first power-source through a first set of wheels and a second power-source through a second set of wheels. The method also includes determining a rotating speed of each of the first and second sets of wheels relative to a road surface. The method additionally includes determining a road speed of the vehicle and determining a longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle. The method also includes determining a slip of the vehicle relative to the road surface using the determined rotating speed of each of the first and second sets of wheels and the speed of the vehicle. Furthermore, the method includes controlling the vehicle slip via regulating a torque output of the first and/or second power-source.

A power circuit includes a power source and a plurality components that connect the power source to a subsystem of a vehicle. A fault detection module receives voltages at an output of the power source and at an input of the subsystem and current drawn by the subsystem, and distinguishes between a power source failure, a permanent and an intermittent disconnection of one of the components from the power source, and a loose connection between the power circuit and the subsystem or corrosion of one of the components, based on analyses of the voltages and the current. A fault mitigation module mitigates the first two faults by switching to a different power source in the vehicle to supply power to the subsystem, and mitigates the third and fourth faults by reducing the power consumed by the subsystem and by generating a warning regarding the intermittent disconnection or loose connection.

A system and method for detecting a road impact event and for diagnosing abnormalities in chassis components. The method includes receiving, by an electronic controller of a vehicle, a plurality of pairs of pulse counts and timestamps. The method also includes determining a first value corresponding to a first delta in timestamp per pulse count change. The method also includes determining whether a road impact has occurred based on a comparison between the first value and the second value. The method also includes transmitting an indication that a road impact has occurred, if a road impact has been determined to have occurred. The method also includes diagnosing whether an abnormality is occurring in a chassis component.

A system includes a vibration damper coupled for rotation with a rotating body. The vibration damper includes one or more fluid pockets. A reactive fluid is arranged in the one or more fluid pockets. The reactive fluid is configured to undergo a property change upon being exposed to a selected force. A force producing mechanism is fixedly mounted relative to the vibration damper, the force producing mechanism being operable to selectively produce the selected force.
