Fundamentals of Powertrain Calibration

Fundamentals of Powertrain Calibration offers a full guide to automotive electronic controller calibration, covering all the information needed for efficient and effective calibration in both physical and virtual domains. Intended as an introduction for those new to the subject as well as a valuable reference source for existing automotive engineers new to powertrain calibration tasks, the book is written by expert authors from AVL, the market leader in the field. Beginning with the foundation knowledge needed to understand calibration complexity and automation, the book moves on to cover the technology required to access the controller, calibration data types and data analysis, experimental approaches, and modeling. The first practical guide to automotive powertrain calibration, with information on the topic currently fragmented, held locally within companies or available only at a level requiring expert knowledge for comprehension. Offers complete coverage from underlying principles to advanced aspects and future trends, equipping engineers to understand, carry out and improve calibration tasks and processes, not just drive the software. Written by expert authors from AVL, the market leader in the field of powertrain calibration.
