Methods and systems are provided for an air system. In one example, a system includes a boost device configured to be driven by exhaust air from a plurality of cylinder in order to compress ambient air. The compressed ambient air is delivered to a tank configured to store compressed gases.

A mobile machine includes an internal combustion engine operatively connected to a plurality of propulsion devices for travel over a work surface. The mobile machine can include an electronic controller that receives condition data signals indicative of the operating state or condition of the mobile machine from a plurality of condition input sensors. The electronic controller compares the condition data signals with condition threshold to determine whether to operate the internal combustion engine in accordance with rated engine speed range or an adjusted engine speed range.

If an engine coolant temperature is equal to or lower than a first low-temperature determination value and a battery temperature is equal to or lower than a second low-temperature determination value when a request to start up an engine is made, the advancement driving of a variable valve operating mechanism is first started. Then, when an advancement amount of the variable valve operating mechanism later becomes equal to or larger than a prescribed startup start determination value, is started.

Methods and systems are provided for estimation of a road roughness index (RRI) and adjusting vehicle operation based on the metric. In one example, a method may include estimating the RRI as a function of a pitch energy and a roll energy of the vehicle travelling on the road. In response to the RRI being higher than a threshold, engine operation such as EGR flow rate may be adjusted.

Provided is a control device of a vehicle including an alternator that generates power using a driving force of an internal combustion engine, wherein when the alternator is cold and a request power of an accessory is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the control device increases the number of revolutions of the internal combustion engine compared with the number of revolutions when the alternator is not cold.

The invention relates to a method for operating a fuel supply pump of a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a combustion engine system and a gearbox, the method comprising the steps of: determining one or more operational values of at least one operational parameter of the combustion engine system; determining a reduction of a fuel provision rate to the combustion engine system; determining whether a gear step change of the gearbox is at hand, on the basis of the determined one or more operational values of the at least one operational parameter; and in case a gear step change of the gearbox is at hand, controlling operation of the fuel supply pump so as to maintain fuel supply pump speed.

An internal combustion engine operates so that it delivers zero or negative torque. The engine operates in either a deceleration cylinder cut off (DCCO) mode or skip cylinder compression braking mode. In the skip cylinder compression braking mode, selected working cycles of selected working chambers are operated in a compression release braking mode. Accordingly, individual working chambers are sometimes not fired and sometimes operated in the compression release braking mode while the engine is operating in the skip cylinder compression braking mode.

A method and a device for counteracting an intrusion into an in-vehicle network are disclosed. The present disclosure in some aspects provides a device and a control method for counteracting an intrusion into an in-vehicle network of a vehicle, including a communication unit configured to communicate with an external network and the in-vehicle network, a memory storing instructions, and at least one processor, wherein the instructions stored in the memory cause, when executed, the at least one processor to perform monitoring an intrusion attempt from the external network into the in-vehicle network, blocking communication between the communication unit and the external network upon detecting the intrusion into the in-vehicle network, establishing a communication link with a terminal of a driver of the vehicle through the communication unit, and performing communication with the external network through the communication unit and the terminal of the driver.

Methods and system are provided to control engine torque of an engine of a vehicle. The methods comprise determining a drive torque demand on a crankshaft of an engine; determining an accessory torque demand on the crankshaft, the accessory torque demand comprising a first torque demand from a first e-machine and a second torque demand from a second e-machine; determining whether the sum of the drive torque demand and the accessory torque demand is greater than a usable torque capacity output from the engine crankshaft, and increasing a speed of the engine in response to determining that the sum of the drive torque demand and the accessory torque demand is greater than the usable torque capacity output from the engine crankshaft.

The invention relates to a method for operating a fuel supply pump of a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a combustion engine system and a gearbox, the method comprising the steps of: determining one or more operational values of at least one operational parameter of the combustion engine system; determining a reduction of a fuel provision rate to the combustion engine system; determining whether a gear step change of the gearbox is at hand, on the basis of the determined one or more operational values of the at least one operational parameter; and in case a gear step change of the gearbox is at hand, controlling operation of the fuel supply pump so as to maintain fuel supply pump speed.
