A computer includes a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to receive data indicating a lane change by a first vehicle that is towing a second vehicle, the data including data indicating a direction that first wheels of the first vehicle are turning while the first vehicle is performing the lane change; and during the lane change, instruct a steering system of the second vehicle to turn second wheels of the second vehicle in a same direction as the first wheels.

A controller for controlling flow of coolant to one or more components of a vehicle is disclosed. The controller determines respective amounts of heat expected to be rejected by the one or more components of the vehicle in a steady state of operation at current operating conditions of the one or more components, and generates a feedforward flow control signal based at least in part on the determined amounts of heat and a target temperature for the one or more components. The controller generates a controller output signal based at least in part on the feedforward control signal, and provides the controller output signal to the cooling system to control flow of coolant to the one or more components of the vehicle from the cooling system in accordance with the determined amounts of heat expected to be rejected by the one or more components of the vehicle.

An energy storage system for a military vehicle includes a battery housing defining a lower end and an upper end, a battery disposed within the battery housing, a bracket coupled to the battery housing at or proximate the upper end thereof, a lower support supporting the lower end of the battery housing, and an upper connector extending from the bracket. The upper connector is configured to engage a rear wall of a cab of the military vehicle.

The present disclosure relates to a cooling system and method of a HEV for cooling an engine clutch and a motor in a HEV, and includes an EOP for pumping oil from an oil pan, a flow regulating valve for adjusting a coolant amount supplied to an engine clutch and a motor in the EOP, and a controller that determines whether to adjust a coolant amount based on a temperature of the engine clutch and a temperature of the motor, accelerates a motor of the EOP based on at least one of an ATF temperature, an engine clutch temperature, a motor temperature, or a TMM control mode, and controls the flow regulating valve depending on a motor speed of the EOP to adjust the coolant amount supplied to from the EOP the engine clutch and the motor.

A method of controlling a propulsion system inverter includes identifying at least one route characteristic of a portion of a route being traversed by a vehicle. The method further includes Receiving at least one inverter characteristic. The method further includes generating a target thermal profile of the propulsion system inverter corresponding to thermal fatigue associated with the at least one thermal characteristic. The method further includes generating a signal to selectively instruct the adjustment of at least one of the vehicle speed control input, a torque demand corresponding to the vehicle speed control input, and the portion of the route based on the target thermal profile of the propulsion system inverter to improve inverter life.

A motor-driven vehicle includes: a motor for traveling; an inverter that drives the motor; and a controller configured to perform automatic parking control for parking the motor-driven vehicle at a target parking position without depending on a user's vehicle operation, and prohibit or stop the automatic parking control when a load limitation ratio is less than a threshold value, the load limitation ratio indicating a limitation level of a torque which is able to be output from the motor in response to a required torque for the motor.

A mobile work machine has a drive unit for driving at least one drive element and/or a working element. The drive unit is hydromechanical drive unit with at least one internal combustion engine and hydraulic energy transmission unit with at least one hydraulic pump and a hydraulic motor. In normal operation, the motor shaft of the internal combustion engine rotates at a normal speed (n_0). Conversely, in a limit temperature operation in which a sensed actual operating temperature of the internal combustion engine or another part of the drive unit is higher than or equal to a target limit temperature (T_limit), an electrical control unit and/or electronic control unit controls the internal combustion engine in such a way that the motor shaft of the internal combustion engine rotates at a first speed (n_target) that is higher than the normal speed (n_0) of the motor shaft in normal operation.

A control system for operating a military vehicle according to different modes includes processing circuitry that receives a user input indicating a selected mode of the different modes, and operates a driveline and a front end accessory drive (FEAD) of the military vehicle according to the selected mode. The driveline of the military vehicle includes an engine and an integrated motor generator (IMG) and the FEAD includes multiple accessories and an electric motor-generator. The modes include an engine mode and an electric mode. In the engine mode, the engine drives the FEAD and drives tractive elements of the military vehicle through the IMG for transportation. In the electric mode, the engine is shut off to reduce a sound output of the military vehicle and the IMG drives the tractive elements of the military vehicle for transportation and the electric motor-generator drives the FEAD.

Disclosed herein is a method of controlling an engine start in a hybrid vehicle. The method comprises activating a remote smart parking assist (RSPA) function when a remote smart assist signal is received, determining whether to start an engine of a hybrid vehicle based on a current state of the hybrid vehicle in which the RSPA function is activated, setting a first driving mode using an electric motor when it is determined that the engine is not able to be started, and releasing the first driving mode when a riding determination condition is satisfied in a state of the first driving mode.

Responsive to accelerator pedal release and a speed of a vehicle being less than a threshold in a presence of indication that available powertrain torque has been reduced for at least a predetermined period of time during an absence of brake pedal engagement, a controller operates friction brakes to bring the vehicle to a stop. Responsive to accelerator pedal release and the speed being less than the threshold in an absence of the indication that available powertrain torque has been reduced and brake pedal engagement, the controller operates an electric machine and not the friction brakes to bring the vehicle to a stop.
