18 Jun 1999TL;DR: In this paper, a multiple speed transmission for motor vehicles includes three simple planetary gearsets, and hydraulically actuated friction clutches and brakes for controlling operation of the gearsets and altering the torque delivery path between an input shaft and an output shaft.
Abstract: A multiple speed transmission for motor vehicles includes three simple planetary gearsets, and hydraulically actuated friction clutches and brakes for controlling operation of the gearsets and altering the torque delivery path between an input shaft and an output shaft. A friction brake is provided for operation in reverse drive to share the torque reaction with another friction brake. The transmission is suited to produce six or seven forward speed ratios and a reverse drive ratio.

18 May 2005TL;DR: In this article, a parallel hybrid electric vehicle method and system including an internal combustion engine (ICE), an electric traction motor/generator, and a controller is presented to prevent unpredicted or undesired engine starts by anticipating the need for the vehicle engine.
Abstract: A parallel hybrid electric vehicle method and system including an internal combustion engine (ICE), an electric traction motor/generator, and a controller. A control strategy is provided to prevent unpredicted or undesired engine starts by anticipating the need for the vehicle engine, while avoiding “false starting” the engine or allowing an annoying lag in performance that will occur if the engine is not started in advance of an actual requirement. The invention anticipates the need for engine starts and electromotive driving by monitoring vehicle speed and driver commands and their rates of change. The invention allows consistent performance and establishes seamless transitions between engine driving and electromotive driving.

16 Aug 2007TL;DR: In this paper, a vehicle is equipped with blind spot detection and rear crossing path collision warning system using programmable maximum range limit radar sensors mounted on the vehicle, which are used to provide blind spot object detection and collision warning when the vehicle is traveling in a forward direction.
Abstract: A vehicle is equipped with blind spot detection and rear crossing path collision warning system. Programmable maximum range limit radar sensors mounted on the vehicle are used to provide blind spot object detection warning when the vehicle is traveling in a forward direction and rear crossing path collision warning when the vehicle is traveling in a rearward direction.

22 Jun 2000TL;DR: In this article, the response of magnetorheological elastomers to dynamic mechanical loading is described, and they behave essentially as elastomeric springs with stiffness and damping that is increased by tens of percent with an applied electrical current.
Abstract: So-called magnetorheological (MR) elastomers, comprising rubbery polymers loaded with magnetizable particles that are aligned in a magnetic field, possess dynamic stiffness and damping that can subsequently be controlled by applied fields. Tunable automotive bushings and mounts incorporating these materials and an embedded magnetic field source have been constructed. In this article, the response of these components to dynamic mechanical loading is described. They behave essentially as elastomeric springs with stiffness and damping that is increased by tens of percent with an applied electrical current. Their time of response to a change in current is less than ten milliseconds. In addition to a tunable spring or force generator, these components may also serve as deflection sensors.
