Integrated approach to an optimal automotive timing chain system design

Ensuring engine efficiency is a crucial issue for automotive manufacturers. Several manufacturers focus on reducing the time taken to develop and introduce brand new vehicles to the market. Thus, a synergic approach including various simulations is generally adopted to achieve a development schedule and to reduce the cost of physical tests. This study involved proposing a design process that is very useful in the preliminary development stage through effective support from simulations. This type of simulation-based design process is effective in developing timing chain drives; the use of this process, based on results from multiple trials, showed improvements in performance including low friction and vibration, improved durability, and cost-effective part design when compared to conventional processes. This study proposes an integrated approach to the preliminary design of an automotive timing chain system. The approach involves structural and dynamic analyses. The details of the design process are described by using the case of a virtual engine. This study conducted and summarized a dynamic and structural analysis as well as topological optimization to describe a process to obtain optimal results. The results of this study indicated the following improvements in overall performance factors: 12.1 % improvement in transmission error, 10.1 % reduction in chain tension, 46 % reduction in tensioner arm weight, and 11 % reduction in transversal displacement.     

Approximate optimal AUTOSAR software components deploying approach for automotive E/E system

The AUTOSAR has been developed as the worldwide standard for automotive E/E software systems, making the electronic components of different suppliers to be employed universally. However, as the number of component-based applications in modern automotive embedded systems grows rapidly and the hardware topology becomes increasingly complex, deploying such large number of components in automotive distributed system in manual way is over-dependent on experience of engineers which in turn is time consuming. Furthermore, the resource limitation and scheduling analysis make the problems more complex for developers to find out an approximate optimal deploying approach in system integration. In this paper, we propose a novel method to deploy the AUTOSAR components onto ECUs with the following features. First, a clustering algorithm is designed for deploying components automatically within relatively low time complexity. Second, a fitness function is designed to balance the ECUs load. The goal of our approach is to minimize the communication cost over all the runnable entities while meeting all corresponding timing constraints and balancing all the ECUs load. The experiment results show that our approach is efficient and has well performance by comparing with other existing methods in specific and synthetic data set.

七叶皂苷钠对大鼠局灶性脑缺血再灌注后MMP-9和LN表达的影响

目的研究七叶皂苷钠(sodium β-aescin)对大鼠局灶性脑缺血再灌注后基质金属蛋白酶-9(matrix metallopro-teinase-9,MMP-9)和层黏连蛋白(laminin,LN)表达影响,为深入探讨七叶皂苷钠对脑的保护机制提供实验依据。方法制备大鼠局灶性脑缺血再灌注模型,随机分为正常组、假手术组、缺血再灌注组和缺血再灌注七叶皂苷钠治疗组,后两组又分为缺血2h后再灌注3、6、12、24、72h和7d,共6个时间点,每时间点4只;用免疫组织化学法和图像分析观察其缺血区LN和MMP-9的表达变化。结果缺血再灌组MMP-9在神经元的表达于再灌注6h开始增加,12h达高峰,24h又降低,7d最低,治疗组MMP-9于再灌注同一时相有显著减少;LN在微血管的表达于再灌注12h明显减少,24h时达低峰,72h开始回升,治疗组在同一时相LN表达显著增多。结论MMP-9与LN可能参与脑血管源性脑水肿的形成发展,缺血再灌注早期七叶皂苷钠治疗通过减少MMP-9的表达,增加LN的表达对缺血再灌注脑起保护作用。
