Automotive system, definition

Open control system definitions presented by Chrysler, Ford GM in the original 1994 white paper, Requirements for Open, Modular Architecture Controllers for Applications in the Automotive Industry specify that open control systems must be ... 

During the last years the ISO TC184/SC4 community has been working on several definitions of APs for some of main recognized production system areas, such as the automotive, aircraft, electrical/electronics, shipbuilding, oil and gas, and B C. Nowadays, there are more than 40 APs registered in ISO. 

In the 80s a large number of different CAD systems were developed. This made the necessity for standards for data exchange obvious. At the beginning, dedicated standards for drawings and 3D models appeared. In 1984 the development of STEP started as a successor of formats such as IGES, SET and VDA-ES (Eig. 21.13). The initial plan was to develop one implementation independent product data model for all purposes. Because of the complexity the standard was modularized. In 1995 ISO published the first initial release. Based on these modules different user communities could create application protocols that adapt the data model and definitions to the specific requirements of the business. Eor automotive AP 214 was defined and enhanced continuously [23]. 

In compliance to the definition of ADL, AADL provides a modeUtng formalism accompanied by a toolset to support modelling activities and analysis. OriginaUy developed for modelling and analysis of systems in the domain of avionics, it has been standardized by the Society of Automotive Engineers. Because of its rich modelling and analysis capabilities it is widely used for embedded systems in other domains as well, especially suitable for model-based analysis and specification of complex real-time embed systems (Feiler et al., 2006). In this section a brief introduction is given on the AADL architectural notations, its analysis and its tool sup>port. 

Our case study is an electronic steering column lock (ESCL) system, which was presented at the VDA Automotive SYS Conference 2012 , June 18/20, 2012, Berlin, Germany and at the VDI Conference Baden-Baden Spezial 2012 , October 10/11, 2012, Baden-Baden, Germany. Item definition, hazard analysis, risk assessment and the safety goals exist. More details on this topic can be found in [2]. We show the applicability of our method by executing the method steps to the ESGL-example. 

A systematic distinction for the vehicle system (item), which also has to be examined in the context of a system houndaiy analysis, is necessary for both approaches. Generally, this is required beforehand as part of the definition of the considered vehicle system. However, if the vehicle system is already partially existent, the technical characteristics and their behavior need to be balanced with the new vehicle system characteristics and their behavior and the new functional stmcture should be defined. In real life there aren t really any new vehicle systems in the automotive industry. Even functions such as ACC, brake assistant or park assistant and new automated functions are enhancements or just electrifications or remote-control systems of existing vehicle systems.

The Webster definition of adhesion is simply the molecular attraction exerted between the snrfaces of bodies in contact (7). In the more technical world, it is understood that there are many complex components to adhesion in a system, both chemical and physical. Further, the wide variety of complex combinations limits the merit of general predictive mles of thumb. Instead, perhaps, it is useful to simply let a specific situation define an appropriate adhesion test, and thus the practically adherent system. A sufficiently adherent interface is one in which the appropriate applied load or sttess did not exceed the total interfacial adhesive forces. Stresses in coated systems can be either compressive or tensile when experienced normal to the surface, shearing when in a parallel orientation, or some combination of these. Much can be learned from automotive adhesion requirements, because so many durable coating applications in so many situations are found in this industry. Table 7 summarizes some of the tests used to measure adhesion. The following sections offer summaries of important aspects of adhesion in practical coating systems.
