Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrical and electronic reliability is a critical issue for automakers and suppliers as well as car buyers and dealers. The burden of reliability falls most heavily on automotive E/E engineers, system and software developers, component suppliers, and tools vendors. This book explores ways that the automotive industry continues to add E/E features while maintaining if not improving overall reliability. This book helps executives, decision-makers, and managers to quickly grasp the key drivers associated with E/E reliability in the automotive market. Academics who teach electronics and automotive engineering will also be interested in the book, as well as those in government who legislate and regulate automotive electronics. Author John Day interviewed nearly 50 experts on all facets of E/E systems and reliability during preparation of this manuscript. In addition, he culled information from press releases and presentations. He synthesized a massive amount of information and data into an easy-to-digest manuscript that gives a clear picture of the current state of E/E reliability and where the technology it is headed.

Download or read book Design and the Reliability Factor written by John Day and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2015-11-23 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sophisticated infotainment systems, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitoring are increasingly common in cars today. The proliferation of automotive electronics and other “smart” features has increased the market for automotive semiconductor devices and the number of sensors per vehicle. Yet, more chips and greater functionality translate to further networking/communications activity within the car, and that raises the prospect of potentially serious errors. How to minimize them by design is the focus of this book, which contains seven of SAE International’s handpicked technical papers, covering: • A way to calculate the reliability of priority-driven, real-time components with respect to timing failures, resulting in a realistic estimate of each component’s reliability. • A delayed-decision cycle detection method that can detect and prevent spoofing attacks with high accuracy. • An AUTOSAR-compliant automotive platform for meeting reliability and timing constraints. • An eight-point process for determining the cause of failures with real-world cases in which the process was used. • The use of accelerated reliability and durability testing technology for better performance estimation. • How to achieve reliable sensor-fusion despite system complexity and inconsistency. • How to improve domain controller availability while maintaining functional safety in mixed-criticality automotive safety systems.

Download or read book Reliability Prediction for Automotive Electronics Based on Field Return Data written by Automotive Electronic Systems Reliability Standards and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document should be used as guidance for non-handbook based reliability predictions conducted on automotive electronics products. It presents a method that utilizes warranty and field repair data to calculate the failure rates of individual electronic components and predict the reliability of the entire electronic system. It assumes that the user has access to a database containing field return data with classification of components, times to failure, and a total number of components operating in the field. In early design activities (typically before the hardware is built), a reliability prediction is often required for the electronic components and systems in order to assess their future reliability and in many cases to meet customer specifications. Those specifications may include the allocated reliability for a particular electronic unit and in the cases of functional safety products to meet the ASIL (Automotive Safety and Integrity Level) requirement specified by the international functional safety standard ISO 26262.This Recommended Practice (RP) document will provide guidance on performing reliability predictions for automotive electronic products utilizing field return data or any other types of failure data available to an automotive electronics supplier. This document will cover the possible sources of data, types of the data required, ways to collect it, and the methodology of how to process these data to calculate the failure rates and the expected reliability. This document will also include a case study based on the data obtained by Delphi Electronics & Safety, a Tier 1 automotive supplier to illustrate the process of reliability prediction based on field return data.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1970, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has been responsible for setting and monitoring traffic and safety standards for all motor vehicles on U.S. roads. Authorized by the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, the agency can investigate and recall any vehicle that contains a safety-related defect or is in violation of a federal motor vehicle safety standard. This paper describes the role of the NHTSA in assessing automotive electronics reliability and safety. We discuss the definition of "safety defect," and how it has been applied. In a number of defect investigations, automakers had initially led the NHTSA to believe that their vehicles were safe and complied with safety standards, although they contained potentially fatal defects. As a result, NHTSA had difficulty in taking effective action against rollovers, stalling problems, and fire hazards in some of the nation's popular vehicles, even though evidence pointed to a safety defect. This article then describes a juridical process that may improve road safety. Examples are given as to how regulations could be manipulated to stymie federal investigations, followed by an explanation of how the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation Act, passed in 2000, could facilitate more effective investigations. Finally, we discuss the economics of defect recalls, and provide some recommendations.

Download or read book V2V V2I Communications for Improved Road Safety and Efficiency written by Ronald K Jurgen and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2012-08-02 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of automobile accidents occur worldwide each year. Some of the most serious are rear-end crashes, side crashes within intersections, and crashes that occur when cars change lanes or drift into a lane. The holy grail of traffic safety is to avoid automobile accidents altogether. To that end, major automakers, governments, and universities are working on systems that allow vehicles to communicate with one another as well as the surrounding infrastructure (V2V/V2I for short). These systems show promise for such functions as intersection assist, left-turn assist, do-not-pass warning, advance warning of a vehicle braking ahead, forward-collision warning, and blind-spot/lane-change warning. This compendium explores the challenges in developing these systems and provides the latest developments in V2V/V2I technology. It begins with a series of overview news stories and articles from SAE’s magazines on the progress in this technology. This is followed by a series of technical papers on V2V/V2I dealing with the many technical aspects of design of these systems as well as discussions of such key issues as the need for extreme reliability assurances and traffic congestion overloads on the systems. Some of most interesting discussions in the book include: • Overview of a large-scale test in Germany to address reliability. • Effectiveness of different antennas and receivers that are used in various intersections settings, such as intersections where there are tall buildings or no buildings, and where high transmission power lines are located that can cause signal interference. • Various ways to communicate between vehicles and how messages are relayed to drivers. • Dedicated short range communication protocol for vehicle safety applications, which shows promise for combining and processing large amounts of information. Editor Ronald K. Jurgen prepared this book to be of use to engineers at automakers and electronic component suppliers; software engineers; computer systems analysts and architects; academics and researchers within the electronics, computing, and automotive industries; legislators, managers and other decision-makers in the government highway sector; traffic safety professionals; and insurance and legal practitioners. Mr. Jurgen served on the editorial staff of IEEE Spectrum for 30 years and is the editor of several electronics-related handbooks and several other electronics-related compendiums published by SAE International.

Download or read book Design Methods of Safety Critical Electronic Automotive Systems written by Tímea Fülep and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The traffic volume, even it is already dense, will increase further in the next years and so the number of the accidents, in which trucks are involved over proportionally. Stand alone safety systems (ABS, ESP) are distributed functions inside a vehicle, which communicate with each other, but not strongly integrated at the moment. Furthermore functions like steering and braking are not yet fully electronically controlled. There is still conventional mechanical actuator control in use, resulting in a lack of safety potential. The development of safety-critical systems is mainly driven by the social demand, that societies want to see safer, more reliable vehicles on the roads, which can also handle more complex situations than the human driver can. By the integration of modern electronic technologies and a well-implemented chassis control into an intelligent, fully electronically controlled power train the overall traffic safety and efficiency especially for trucks can be improved. By-wire technology offers both functional and design benefits, but their application in safety-critical systems, such as braking and steering, requires special care during the design and release process.
