Spark Ignition Engine Modeling and Control System Design A Guide to Model-in-the-Loop Hierarchical Control Methodology

Spark Ignition Engine Modeling and Control System Design A Guide to Model-in-the-Loop Hierarchical Control Methodology

This book presents a step-by-step guide to the engine control system design providing case studies and a thorough analysis of the modeling process using machine learning and model predictive control (MPC). Covering advanced processes alongside the theoretical foundation MPC enables engineers to improve performance in both hybrid and non-hybrid vehicles. Control system improvement is one of the major priorities for engineers seeking to enhance an engine. Often possible on a low budget substantial improvements can be made by applying cutting-edge methods such as artificial intelligence when modeling engine control system designs and using MPC. This book presents approaches to control system improvement at mid low and high levels of control. Beginning with the model-in-the-loop hierarchical control design of ported fuel injection SI engines this book focuses on optimal control of both transient and steady state and also discusses hardware-in-the-loop. The chapter on low-level control discusses adaptive MPC and adaptive variable functioning as well as designing a fuel injection feed-forward controller. At mid-level control engine calibration maps are discussed with consideration of constraints such as limits on pollutant emissions. Finally the high-level control methodology is discussed in detail in relation to transient torque control of SI engines. This comprehensive yet clear guide to control system improvement is an essential read for any engineer working in automotive engineering and engine control system design. | Spark Ignition Engine Modeling and Control System Design A Guide to Model-in-the-Loop Hierarchical Control Methodology

Developing an ISO 13485-Certified Quality Management System An Implementation Guide for the Medical-Device Industry

Developing an ISO 13485-Certified Quality Management System An Implementation Guide for the Medical-Device Industry

Developing an ISO 13485-Certified Quality Management System: An Implementation Guide for the Medical-Device Industry details the lessons learned from a real-world project focusing on building an ISO 13485:2016 Quality Management System (QMS) from scratch and then having it officially certified. It is a practical guide to building or improving your existing QMS with tried and tested solutions. The book takes a hands-on approach–first teaching the top 25 lessons to know before starting to develop a QMS and then walking you through the process of writing the quality manual and the standard operating procedures training the staff on the QMS organizing an internal audit executing a management review and finally passing the necessary external audits and obtaining certification. It helps you to progress from one task to the next and provides all the essential information to accomplish each task as quickly and efficiently as possible. It does not attempt to replicate the standard but instead drills into the standard to expose the core of each section of the standard and reorganize its contents into a practical workflow for developing maintaining and improving a Lean QMS. The book includes a wealth of real-world experience both from the author's personal dive into quality management and from the experiences of other companies in the field and provides handy checklists for ensuring key documents and processes are fit for use–the emphasis here is to help ensure you have considered all relevant aspects. In addition the book is not intended as a “cheat sheet” for the standard or as a review of the standard that only adds lengthy commentary on each of the clauses. Instead the book fixes easy misunderstandings regarding QMS provides insight into why the various clauses are written the way they are and provides a great base to both understanding ISO 13485 QMS and developing your own QMS. The book is intended to serve both experts and novices audiences–it provides special insight on the most crucial and effective aspects of QMS. | Developing an ISO 13485-Certified Quality Management System An Implementation Guide for the Medical-Device Industry
