As already well-understood/enormous engineering practices, the inverter AC-side NVH phenomena/mechanisms/measures for motor-equipped vehicle, are already pretty clear. In addition to inverter AC side–induced NVH issues, DC ripple induced by PE switching leads to NVH issues manifesting on the capacitor, inductor, and conductor in terms of reverse piezoelectricity, electrostriction, magnetostriction, Laplace force, and so forth. These DC-side NVH issues are already literally analyzed by a couple of literatures, and mechanisms/measures are explored/applied to electric drive development. And yet, the phenomenon that a pulsating magnetic field inside a battery pack induced by DC current ripple off PE switching brings noise at switching frequency inside the vehicle cabin is newly captured/analyzed by our research, and that has been barely searched during the literature survey. This newly discovered phenomenon is the pivotal point in this paper. Although the noise features like the

Limited published research has critically examined the impact of Cell-to-Chassis (CTC) structures on the Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) performance of electric vehicles (EVs), with most studies focusing on conventional Cell-to-Pack (CTP) systems. A concern is that vehicles employing CTC architectures may exhibit compromised NVH performance due to the absence of a dedicated floor panel. To investigate the NVH performance implications of the CTC structure, this study adopts a comprehensive methodology encompassing: (1) theoretical Sound Transmission Loss (STL) analysis utilizing mass law and double-panel principles, (2) finite element (FE) modeling of STL, (3) in-vehicle Acoustic Transfer Function (ATF) testing, and (4) interior noise measurements conducted at a constant 60 km/h on a smooth asphalt road. Simulation results demonstrate that, compared to a conventional CTP floor system, the studied CTC structure achieves a 5–40 dB increase in STL across the 200–2000 Hz frequency

The rapid evolution of autonomous vehicle (AV) systems requires scalable, adaptable, and intelligent software architectures to cater for high demands in security, reliability, and real-time processing. This paper introduces a novel software-defined architecture combining generative artificial intelligence (AI) with cloud computing for extending the performance and capabilities of AVs. The proposed methodology uses generative AI models for dynamic perception, route planning, and anomaly detection and is implemented on cloud computing infrastructure to lend orders of magnitude larger computational resources for scaling on-the-fly learning among distributed AV fleets. Decoupling hardware-specific features and transitioning toward a software-defined paradigm, the processing platform allows for quick updates, continuous learning, and flexible deployment of world-leading AI models. Experimental results and simulated scenarios show better situational awareness, response time, and system

This document provides guidance to using Rust in critical and safety-related software. The document summarizes how the usage of Rust supports in arguing safety according to ISO 26262 or RTCA DO-178C combined with RTCA DO-332. Cybersecurity best practices are referenced as these requirements largely overlap with those implemented for safety. As the Rust language is still evolving, this document targets the 2021 and 2024 editions of the language. Older or newer editions might require additional or changed rules and guidelines. Generally, the newest available edition of the language should be selected as newer editions remove ambiguities and outdated parts from the language.
