    摘要: A method for estimating at least one ring-related parameter related to at least one piston ring may include estimating a bore distortion of a cylinder bore. The bore distortion may include a plurality of bore distortions corresponding to a plurality of respective piston locations within the cylinder bore. The method may also include receiving the bore distortion in a ring performance model configured to dynamically estimate a plurality of ring-related parameters associated with combustion in the cylinder bore during operation of the internal combustion engine. The ring performance model may be configured to receive a static data signal indicative of static parameters and a dynamic data signal indicative of dynamic parameters related to operation of the internal combustion engine. The ring performance model may be configured to estimate at least one ring-related parameter related to at least one piston ring during operation of the internal combustion engine.

    摘要: A mounting system for retrofitting a vibration sensor to a machine component is provided. The mounting system includes an elongate fastener, a washer, and a mounting boss. The elongate fastener includes a fastener head and an elongated body defining a longitudinal top end and a longitudinal bottom end. The longitudinal bottom end defines a fastening end configured to engage with a corresponding fastening receptacle of the machine component. The washer defines an external surface and includes a central cavity for engaging the elongated body of the elongate fastener therein. The mounting boss includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion includes an internal cavity defining a first cavity section configured to engage with the external surface of the washer, and a second cavity section to engage with the fastener head of the elongate fastener. The second portion defines a receiving port for receiving the vibration sensor.

    摘要: Detecting manipulation of an SCR catalytic converter system of a motor vehicle. A control command (61) for the SCR catalytic converter system, transmitted from a control unit outside the motor vehicle, is received by the motor vehicle. Manipulation is detected (57) if a response (55) of the SCR catalytic converter system to the execution (54) of the control command (61) does not correspond to expectation. Embodiments also relate to monitoring manipulation of the SCR catalytic converter system. Here, a control command (61) for the SCR catalytic converter system is transmitted (41) to the motor vehicle (10) from a control unit (20) outside the motor vehicle.
