As you accelerate down the road and use your gas pedal to throttle in the appropriate amount of energy, you expect a smooth implementation from your foot to the motor. The electronic throttle control ...

All new Classes 7-8 tractors sold on or after Aug. 1 must be equipped with electronic stability control, which means that more fleets will need to understand how those systems work and how to maintain ...

This paper presents firstly the newly developed "Timing and Injection Rate Control System" for heavy duty diesel engine. In this system, a new concept of diesel fuel injection variable pre-stroke ...

I like to think of engineers as doctors of the electronics world. Let me explain: Think about the last time an optometrist examined your “human sensors.” Did they prescribe glasses to compensate for ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

The hype is finally turning into reality—microelectromechanical-systems (MEMS) sensors have turned into one of the hottest emerging component areas for medical, consumer, industrial, and automotive ...

Detroit is one of the most impactful diesel engine companies in history, and the Series 60 is its most important engine to date. The Series 60 engine was developed in 1987 with the purpose of creating ...

Advancements in environmental sensing have played an important role in smart factories, automobiles, medical wearables and other end equipment in which electrification is becoming more common. In ...

The difference between traction control and stability control is like the difference between a GED and a master's degree or PhD in vehicle safety. Stability control is just traction control with more ...

There's been a proliferation in recent years of vintage-looking electronic fuel injection setups, simulating the look of side- or down-draft carburetor setups, or the stack-style mechanical fuel ...
