This paper proposes an Energy Management Strategy (EMS) for a plug-in parallel Hybrid
Electric Vehicle (pHEV) with the goal of minimising the fuel consumption while fulfilling the …

Real driving emissions (RDE) testing is an important legislative tool to reduce the gap
between type-approval and real-world emissions of internal combustion engines. Since low …

Internal combustion engines working at cold conditions lead to the production of excessive
pollutant emissions levels. The use of the exhaust gas recirculation could be necessary to …

Connected vehicle paradigm allows the systematic recording of data, which may be made
available for both on-board and cloud diagnostics functions. However, real-driving …

The future of Internal Combustion Engines in the automotive sector seems uncertain, to
some extent due to the recent changes in type approval regulations. Current regulations …

The aftertreatment systems used in internal combustion engines need high temperatures for
reaching its maximum efficiency. By this reason, during the engine cold start period or …

For heavy-duty diesel engines, NOX emissions reduction is strongly constrained by fuel
efficiency. This paper presents a hierarchical model predictive controller (H-MPC) for …

Decreasing fuel consumption in Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) is a key target for engine
developers in order to achieve the CO2 emissions limits during a standard cycle. In this …

Together with stringent emission standards, meeting fuel consumption, and performance
targets have made engine calibration process complicated, lengthy, and costly. For this …

Diesel engines continue to be the prime movers in heavy-duty and nonroad applications
because of their high fuel efficiency and excellent durability. Optimising and controlling the …
