ELECTRIFIED MILITARY VEHICLE
An energy storage system for a military vehicle includes a lower support, a battery supported on the lower support, a bracket coupled to the battery, and an upper isolator mount coupled between the bracket and a wall. The upper isolator mount is configured to provide front-to-back vibration isolation of the battery relative to the wall.
DRIVE CONTROL SYSTEM
A drive control system (S) includes a measurement portion (1) configured to detect an obstacle (R) in a transportation vehicle (T), and a load collapse determination portion (4) configured to acquire an arrangement of a transportation target (C) loaded on the transportation vehicle (T) based on measurement data of the measurement portion (1) to determine a load collapse of the transportation target (C) based on a change in the arrangement over time.

Method for determining the drive train sensitivity of a drive train of a motor vehicle
A method for determines the drive train sensitivity of a drive train of a motor vehicle. A vehicle body is placed in longitudinal oscillations in the direction of travel and a parameter for the drive train sensitivity is determined as a function of the determined longitudinal accelerations of the vehicle body and the resultant angular accelerations of a transmission input shaft of a transmission of the motor vehicle.

Arithmetic model generation system and arithmetic model generation method
An arithmetic model generation system includes a sensor information acquisition unit, a tire force calculator, and an arithmetic model update unit. The sensor information acquisition unit acquires acceleration of a tire. The tire force calculator includes an arithmetic model for calculating tire force F based on the acceleration, and calculates the tire force F by inputting the acceleration acquired by the sensor information acquisition unit. The arithmetic model update unit compares tire axial force measured by the tire and the tire force F calculated by the tire force calculator, and updates the arithmetic model.

Automated vehicle actions such as lane departure warning, and associated systems and methods
Mappings of keys to actions can automate various vehicle systems. Some automations can provide lane departure warnings. Keys for lane departure mappings can specify vibration patterns expected when a vehicle drives over lane delineators. These vibration-based mappings can include keys with vibration patterns, e.g., defining vibration frequencies or vibration locations. Keys for emergency light mappings can be based on conditions such as (1) the vehicle being on the road, stopped, not in traffic, and not at a stop signal; (2) components of the vehicle having failed; or (3) weather conditions.

Method and apparatus for dynamically estimating vehicle mass
A method for dynamically determining a mass of a vehicle including a propulsion system coupled to a drive wheel is described, and includes monitoring vehicle operating conditions, executing an event-based estimation method based upon the vehicle operating conditions to determine a first vehicle mass state, and executing a recursive estimation method based upon the vehicle operating conditions to determine a second vehicle mass state. A final vehicle mass is determined based upon the first and second vehicle mass states.
