Automotive Systems Group
Introduction
This group is oriented towards an indigenous development of low cost hardware, for Automated Engine Tuning System (AETS) from the sensors of an automobile and development of diagnostic algorithms. Finally, comprehensive software would be developed on PC to interface the developed hardware and acquire the data on PC. The software would use that data to diagnose faults in the automotive engine and inform the user (a workshop mechanic) about the fault, its possible causes and their consequences.
Current Activities:
VehiTEC: Automated Engine Tuning System for CAN Bus Based Modern Vehicles
Dr. Naeem Zafar Azeemi
The project will explore the factors that lead to the suboptimal performance of vehicle. The researchers would develop a mathematical model for Controller Area Network (CAN) bus based Automated Engine Tuning System (AETS). Mathematical model would be simulated using Labview. The result of model would then be validated using a test rig of CAN bus based engine. Faults would be introduced in the simulation model and its behavior would be studied using simulation in Labview. Algorithms would be developed to detect and isolate the faults in the system. Controllers would be developed so that the vehicle performance would be kept as optimal as possible even in the presence of faults. Finally user-friendly software would be developed for user guidance and an embedded system would be developed to acquire the data and isolate the faults using data acquired.
