摘要:
An ECU serving as a transmission side and an ECU serving as a reception side are coupled to each other through communication lines and junction connectors. A diode in which a direction directed from a negative-side output terminal of the ECU serving as the transmission side to a positive-side output terminal thereof becomes a forward direction is provided between the positive-side output terminal and the negative-side output terminal.

A method for detecting faults in an aircraft is disclosed. The method involves predicting at least one state of the aircraft and tuning at least one threshold value to tightly upper bound the size of a mismatch between the at least one predicted state and a corresponding actual state of the non-faulted aircraft. If the mismatch between the at least one predicted state and the corresponding actual state is greater than or equal to the at least one threshold value, the method indicates that at least one fault has been detected.

The present invention provides a diagnostics methodology and embedded electronic system that allows optimized low-frequency data sampling for EMA motoring subsystems in an operating vehicle. Each of the EMA motoring subsystems includes: an EMA; at least one motor for driving the EMA; and power controls for operating the motor, wherein the power controls includes a DSP controller for sampling and processing data at low-frequency sampling rates. The diagnostic methodology includes a method that has the steps of: determining an operational mode of the EMA motoring subsystem; selecting a sampling rate optimized for the determined operational mode; acquiring and processing data at the selected sampling rate; and analyzing the processed data to identify and classify a fault of the EMA motoring subsystem.

System and method for guiding a driver of a vehicle (20) from a starting point to a destination point using an assignment of levels of urgency of navigation cues. The system comprises a navigation unit (38), a controller (22) and a user interface (42). The navigation unit (38) is capable of selecting a route between the starting point and the destination point. The navigation unit (38) is further capable of generating a plurality of navigation cues to guide the driver along the selected route. The controller (22) is connected to the navigation unit (38) and receives navigation cues. The controller (22) has an urgency calculator (40) that is capable of assigning a level of urgency to the navigation cues. The controller (22) may also have a workload manager (60) that is capable of classifying an activity state of the driver as well as updating the level of urgency of the navigation cue. The user interface (42) presents the navigation cues based on the level of urgency of the navigation cues.
摘要:
A system and method for processing test measurements collected from an internal combustion engine that is cold-tested for diagnostic purposes. Test measurements are collected from an engine. The test measurements are "pre-processed" by filtering and subsampling techniques so that Principle Component Analysis can be applied to condense the quantity of test measurements while still retaining a statistically accurate indication of a majority of the original measurements. The pre-processed test measurements are then passed through one or more classifiers including: a Neural Network classifier, a Fuzzy Logic classifier, a cluster-based classifier (or "Spherical" classifier) and a Genetic Program classifier. Results from these classifiers can be used to obtain a verdict about an engine (i.e., whether the engine is "normal" or "faulty").

A design of a tire can be facilitated. An optimization apparatus 30 inputs known design parameters of the shape, structure, and pattern of a tire, and performances thereof by an experimental data input unit 40 and learns, as a conversion system of a neural network, a correlation between design parameters of the shape, structure, and pattern of the tire, and performances thereof. Ranges which constrain performances of the tire and design parameters of the shape, structure, and pattern of the tire, which are to be optimized, are inputted in an optimization item input unit 42, and the performances of the tire are predicted in an optimization calculation unit 34 from the design parameters of the shape, structure, and pattern of the tire by using the optimization item and models of the calculation unit 32, and an objective function is optimized until the objective function which is the performances of the tire is converged. The optimized design parameters of the shape, structure, and pattern of the tire are outputted from an optimization result output unit 44.
