This paper presents a low cost hardware message passing engine of enhanced atomic pipelined broadcast based on processing node status. In this algorithm, the previous atomic pipelined broadcast algorithm is modified to reduce the waiting time until next broadcast communication. For this, the processor change the transmission order of processing nodes based on the nodes' communication channel. Also, the hardware message passing engine architecture of the proposed algorithm is modified to be adopted to multi-core processor. The synthesized logic area of the proposed hardware message passing engine was reduced by about 16%, compared by the pre-existing hardware message passing engine.

Traction control systems(TCS) improve vehicle acceleration performance and stability, particularly on slippery roads through engine torque and/or brake torque control. This research mainly deals with the engine control algorithm based on adjustment of the engine throttle valve opening. Hardware-in-the-loop simulation(HWILS) is carried out where the actual hardware is used for the engine/automatic transmission and TCS controller, while various vehicle dynamics are simulated on real-time basis. Also, use of the dynamometer is made in order to implement the tractive force that a road applies to the tire. Although some restrictions are imposed mainly due to the capability of the synamometer, simplified HWILS results show that the slip control algorithm can improve the vehicle acceleration performance for low-friction roads.

This paper presents vibration control performance of active engine mount system installed with the magneto-rheological (MR) mount and the piezostack mount. The performance is evaluated via hardware-in-the-loop-simulation(HILS) method. As a first step, six degrees-of freedom dynamic model of an in-line four-cylinder engine which has three points mounting system is derived by considering the dynamic behaviors of MR mount and piezostack mount. As a second step, sliding mode controller(SMC) is synthesized to actively control the imposed vibration In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed active engine mount, vibration control performances are evaluated under various engine operating speeds (wide frequency range) using HILS method and presented in time and frequency domain.

This paper presents vibration control performance of a passenger vehicle installed with olectro-rheological(ER) engine mounts. As a first step, a mixed-mode ER engine mount is modeled and manufactured. After verifying the controllability of the dynamic stiffness by the intensity of the electric field, ER engine mounts are incorporated with a full-car model. The governing equation of motion is then formulated by considering engine excitation force. A skyhook controller to attenuate vibration motions is designed. The controller is implemented through hardware-in-the-loop simulation and control responses are presented in the both frequency and time domains.

The transient performance of the passenger diesel engine equipped with the variable geometry turbocharger was simulated using HIL(hardware-in-the-loop) system. The system consists of engine model as software, and the turbocharger test bench as hardware. The engine model is mean value model which is programmed by the Simulink of the Mathworks. The turbocharger test bench is composed of a blower, some sensors, and DAQ boards. A real time simulation is possible since the operating system based on the real time is included. The results show the good response for the transient characteristics. Therefore this HIL system can be used for development of the new turbocharger effectively.

A TCS slip control system improves acceleration capability and steerability on slippery roads through engine torgue and/or brake torque control. This research mainly deals with the engine control algorithm via the adjustment of the engine throttle angle. The following new control strategy is proposed and investigated ; the TCS slip controller whose input is the difference between the desired driving wheel speed corresponding to the optimum slip ratio and the actual speed yields the target engine torque and then estimates the throttle angle based on the engine performance curve. Various simulation and hardware-in-the-loop simulation have been carried out. The results show the proposed strategy may compensate for the inherent nonlinearity between variation of the throttle angle and variation of the engine torque and produce better performance than the previous strategies without the engine map, especially in the high speed region.

Previously, in order to send information from the local controller to the display board, the hardware or software had to be handled and run through 3-phases, which include the PC-card or PC-add Board, I/F card and Sub board. This study will attempt to design a board that handles information by connecting the USB port of the PC directly to the Sub board. In addition, an MPU will be attached to the previously complex hardware circuit to design a software drive engine module, which allows for the development of new products by modifying only the software engine and not the hardware.

Response characteristics of the CVT system for a parallel hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) are investigated. From the experiment, CVT ratio control algorithm for the optimal engine operation is obtained. To investigate the effect of the CVT system dynamic characteristics on the HEV performance, a hardware in the loop simulation (HILS) is performed. In the HILS, hardwares of the CVT belt-pulley and hydraulic control valves are used. It is found that the engine performance by the open loop CVT ratio control shows some deviation from the OOL in spite of the RCVs open loop control ability. To improve the engine performance, a closed loop control of the CVT ratio is proposed with variable control gains depending on the shift direction and the CVT speed ratio range by considering the nonlinear characteristics of the RCV and CVT belt-pulley dynamics. The HILS results show that the engine performance is improved by the closed loop control showing the operation trajectory close to the OOL.
