The paper presents aspects concerning the modeling and driving scenarios of a class of vehicular power train systems. The modeling includes an analysis of the system components which include the spark-ignition internal combustion engine, the torque converter, the metal V-belt type continuously variable transmission and the wheels. Four driving scenarios are illustrated by digital simulation results:...
In this paper a self-tuning control design strategy for the electronic throttle is introduced. The proposed control design consists of a modified PID controller and an additional nonlinear controller that helps to compensate the nonlinearities of the plant. The control parameters are calculated automatically using an appropriate process identification algorithm. The efficiency of the proposed control...
This contribution investigates the industrial application of new local model based nonlinear state feedback control schemes. Local model based control algorithms can be divided into two classes - master-slave and non-master-slave control structures. In this work, a control strategy for each of these classes is developed. Merits and demerits of both types of structures are illustrated with the help...
Nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) has proven successful in many applications, especially in chemical and process engineering where sampling times are usually in the order of seconds or minutes. Combustion engines show highly nonlinear behaviour and require sampling times of few milliseconds which poses a challenging control problem. We aim at tracking a desired torque profile of a gasoline...
