An automatic aircraft powerplant control system includes a throttle servo for adjusting a throttle valve via a throttle control linkage. A throttle control lever provides a user input to the throttle servo, and a throttle controller controls the throttle servo for controlling a throttle valve. A propeller servo may be provided for adjusting a propeller governor setting of an engine. A propeller control lever provides a user input to the propeller servo, and a propeller controller controls the propeller servo. A full-authority digital engine control (FADEC) controller is used to automatically control mixing of fuel and air via a fuel-air mixture device. The FADEC controller may be used to automatically provide propeller control.

Closing timing of an intake port is changed without using a variable valve timing mechanism. An electric vehicle includes an engine for electricity generation in which closing timing of an intake port maximizes intake air charging efficiency in a specific revolution speed region, a sensor which outputs a signal related to a revolution speed of the engine, a controller which drives the engine at a revolution speed based on the signal of the sensor, a requested electricity generation amount being satisfied at the revolution speed, and a motor which applies a positive or negative torque to the engine. When the engine is driven in a revolution speed region other than the specific revolution speed region, the controller uses the motor to apply a positive or a negative torque to the engine in an intake stroke to change the closing timing of the intake port to increase intake air charging efficiency.

A control apparatus of an engine for a hybrid vehicle includes an engine including at least one cylinder that generates power required for vehicle driving by fuel combustion, an injector that injects fuel into the cylinder, a driving motor that assists the power of the engine, and a controller that selectively performs a single injection mode in which fuel is injected once into the cylinder of the engine through the injector and a multiple injection mode in which fuel is injected a plurality of times into the cylinder of the engine through the injector, in a transition region that transitions from a theoretical air-fuel ratio operating region in which the engine is operated at a theoretical air-fuel ratio to a lean-burn combustion operating region in which the engine is operated leaner than the theoretical air-fuel ratio.

When an inclination angle is greater than or equal to a first threshold, a controller determines a displacement of a hydraulic pump from a command vehicle speed based on second pump data and determines a displacement of a hydraulic motor from the command vehicle speed based on second motor data. The second pump data defines the displacement of the hydraulic pump that is smaller than that of first pump data with respect to the command vehicle speed. The second motor data defines the displacement of the hydraulic motor that is smaller than that of first motor data with respect to the command vehicle speed.

Disclosed is a method for optimizing the time gradient of the pressure increase in a fuel injection system of a hybrid motor vehicle. The method determines and uses the engine torque generated by the electric machine of the vehicle to reduce the engine torque generated by the internal combustion engine of the vehicle and allow the high-pressure pump of the internal combustion engine to generate, if applicable, a higher value of the time gradient of the pressure increase in the common supply chamber of its injection system.

Systems include a prime mover that generates power for a mobile vehicle; a power converter that receives a portion of the generated power, and provides configured electrical power to an aftertreatment heater device configured to selectively heat an exhaust fluid of the prime mover; at least one aftertreatment component positioned downstream of the aftertreatment heater device, and configured to treat a constituent of the exhaust fluid; and a controller including an operating conditions circuit structured to interpret an operating parameter of one of the power converter, the aftertreatment heater device, the prime mover, or the exhaust fluid; a heater management circuit that determines a heating power value in response to the operating parameter; and a heater control circuit that provides a heating command in response to the heating power value; and wherein the power converter is responsive to the heating command to heat the exhaust fluid of the prime mover.

An engine system includes an internal combustion engine, an energy storage device configured to provide electrical power, and an electrified air-boost system powered by the electrical power from the energy storage device to boost intake air to the engine, with the electrified air-boost system further including an electrical machine and a pressure device driven by the electrical machine to output boosted intake air to the engine. The engine system also includes a controller operably connected with the electrified air-boost system, with the controller configured to monitor engine speed and engine load during operation of the engine, identify an impending engine stall condition based on the monitored engine speed and engine load, and when the impending engine stall condition is identified, temporarily operate the electrified air-boost system to boost the intake air to the engine, thereby boosting a torque output of the engine.

A braking control device for controlling braking of a host vehicle. For a state in which a host vehicle is stopped in an intersection by automatic emergency braking and an oncoming vehicle is approaching in an oncoming lane, the host vehicle prohibits secondary braking, flashes a hazard lamp, and prohibits an idling stop. For a state in which it is determined in that the vehicle is stopped and it is determined in that it is safe for the vehicle to start moving, the host vehicle releases stop maintenance braking.

The disclosure relates to a hybrid-electrical drive system for an aircraft having two subsystems that are largely independent of each other. A stator winding of a common electrical machine is assigned to each of the subsystems such that both subsystems may be supplied with electrical energy from the common electrical machine. If a defect occurs in one of the subsystems, the drive system may be configured such that electrical energy from a battery of the non-defective subsystem may be transferred into the defective subsystem by utilizing the two stator winding systems.
