Engine Modeling and Control Environmental concern drives the development towards more efficient and less pollutive automobiles and engines. With the increasing computational powers that are becoming available for engine control units, more advanced methods for control and supervision can be implemented.
Vehicles are now computerized machines.
This fact has had an enormous effect on the possibilities for functionality of vehicles, which together with needs and requirements from customers and from society have created vigorous activities in development and research. Two trends are especially interesting for our research. These new designs are made possible by, and rely on, the existence of a control and diagnosis system. New methods of signal interpretation. Availability of computing and network technology have opened up completely new possibilities.
