FAULT ISOLATION USING ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) CAPABILITY DATA
A system is configured to store a relationship data set of a plurality of diagnostic estimators and a plurality of failure modes, each failure mode represents a type of failure that can occur with a sensor or a vehicle component of a vehicle system, each diagnostic estimator is associated with a respective subset of the failure modes, each subset defines a control space within the vehicle system that contains at least one of (i) one or more sensors or (ii) one or more vehicle components. The system is configured to store a healthy diagnostic vector regarding nominal operational parameters of the vehicle system; acquire diagnostic information regarding current operational parameters of the vehicle system to generate an error diagnostic vector; apply the error diagnostic vector to the healthy diagnostic vector to generate a ratio diagnostic vector; and apply the ratio diagnostic vector to generate a value for each failure mode.

Impeller for rotary machine, compressor, forced induction device, and method for manufacturing impeller for rotary machine
The impeller comprises: an impeller body (21) which includes a surface part (27) formed to a fixed depth (D) from a surface (21a) thereof, and which is made of Al or an Al alloy; and an NiP-based electroless-plated film (23) covering the surface (21a) of the impeller body (21), wherein the surface part (27) has a first compressive residual stress (P1).
FLUID DAMPING SYSTEM FOR TRACTION DRIVE
Disclosed is a fluid damping system for a planetary traction drive designed for a driven. turbocharger on an engine. The planetary traction drive has a plurality of double roller planets that are each supported by two planet hearings, one at each end of the double roller planet. Each planet bearing has a fluid damping system that consists of a radial squeeze film damper that feeds fluid to an axial squeeze film damper to absorb vibrations and dissipate kinetic energy in the planetary traction drive.

Systems and methods for aftertreatment regeneration with dedicated EGR
Systems and methods for implementing regeneration of an aftertreatment component using exhaust gas recirculation is described. According to various embodiments, an engine system comprises an engine, a turbocharger, a fluid control valve, and a lean NO.sub.x catalyst. The engine has a first set cylinders fluidly coupled to an intake manifold and a second set of cylinders having fluidly isolated from the intake manifold of the engine. The fluid control valve is disposed between the first exhaust outlet and the exhaust conduit and is structured to selectively fluidly couple the first exhaust outlet to the exhaust conduit. Also, the lean NO.sub.x catalyst has an inlet structured to receive exhaust gases from the exhaust conduit at a position downstream of the turbine outlet and the fluid control valve.

Control apparatus for internal combustion engine
An internal combustion engine includes a throttle valve, an EGR passage, an EGR valve, a valve mechanism that adjusts opening and closing characteristics of an intake valve or an exhaust valve of the internal combustion engine, and a controller that controls the throttle valve, the EGR valve and the valve mechanism, based on request torque that is requested of the internal combustion engine. The controller is configured to execute evacuation traveling control that operates the throttle valve to fully open, calculates a target intake air flow amount for achieving the request torque based on an effective opening area of the EGR valve which is stuck, and operates the valve mechanism in accordance with the target intake air flow amount, in at least one time period while the request torque is reducing when the EGR valve is stuck in an open state.
