The present disclosure relates to a monitoring system for a vehicle, a vehicle comprising such a monitoring system, a method for monitoring such a vehicle and a computer program element for monitoring such a vehicle.

The monitoring system comprises a display unit, an adjustment tool and a control unit. The control unit is configured to generate an energy flow map showing an energy flow from an energy storage system to at least one sub-system of the vehicle. The display unit is configured to display the energy flow map, to graphically emphasize the at least one sub-system and to display a current energy consumption of the sub-system. The control unit is further configured to adjust the energy consumption of the sub-system based on a user's input to the adjustment tool.

Examples described herein provide a computer-implemented method for managing battery usage for a hybrid electric engine of an aircraft. The method includes receiving a flight plan comprising flight plan data for a flight of an aircraft. The method further includes receiving battery data about a battery system of the aircraft. The method further includes determining waypoints for when to apply electric power from the battery system based at least in part on the flight plan data and the battery data. The method further includes controlling, based at least in part on the waypoints, an electric motor while the flight plan is executed. The method further includes updating, while the flight plan is executed, the waypoints based at least in part on data received during the flight.

When it is determined that a tractor is located in a farm field, a first handling process of performing a first treatment for handling an abnormality when a first condition has been satisfied and a second handling process of performing a second treatment for handling an abnormality when a second condition has been satisfied are performed. The first condition is a condition that is satisfied when the second condition has been satisfied and that is satisfied in some situations in which the second condition has not been satisfied.

A vehicle with a hybrid drivetrain including a fuel-fed engine coupled to a first drive axle, an electric motor coupled to a second drive axle and an APU for providing electrical power at stopover locations, and further including a controller for determining a location of the vehicle, a location of a stopover location, determining a target SOC of a battery for operating the APU at the stopover location and operating a hybrid control system to provide the target SOC for the vehicle at the stopover location.

An apparatus and a method for managing a battery are based upon degradation determination of the battery. The method includes determining a charging method when starting charging of a battery, storing at least one of a charge voltage, charge current, and temperature when starting charging of the battery, and when the determined charging method is constant current (CC) charging, determining a state of health (SOH) of the battery by comparing an increase in charge capacity of the battery with respect to an increase in charge voltage of the battery with a CC-section SOH mapping table, or when the determined charging method is constant voltage (CV) charging, determining the SOH of the battery by comparing at least one of an increase in the charge capacity of the battery and a charge time of the battery with a CV-section SOH mapping table.
