Access mechanisms to system data and/or control is a primary use case of the hardware protected security environment (hardware protected security environment) during different uses and stages of the system. The hardware protected security environment acts as a gatekeeper for these use cases and not necessarily as the executor of the function. This section is a generalization of such use cases in an attempt to extract common requirements for the hardware protected security environment that enable it to be a gatekeeper. Examples are: Creating a new key fob Re-flashing ECU firmware Reading/exporting PII out of the ECU Using a subscription-based feature Performing some service on an ECU Transferring ownership of the vehicle Some of these examples are discussed later in this section and some have detailed sections of their own. This list is by no means comprehensive.

This presentation will address the published paper 2023-01-0892. Now for past many decades, automotive manufacturing is under perennial pressure owing to consumer aspirations, regulations, globalized competition and sustainability needs. Automotive manufactures are fiercely satisfying all of above constraints through innovative solutions. The resultant vehicles have many complex to very complex systems and subsystems to deliver the performance aspirations. In this game, one of the critical business parameter is rapid time to market. At the current state of the art, time to market directly conflicts with new product development time. Four wheeler new product development consumes upward of 48 months, while risking obsolescence of product features at the time of launch. Automotive manufacturers invest intensely in technologies to achieve this goal of short time to market.

Abstract Testing and verifying the security of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) under cyber-physical attacks is a critical challenge for ensuring their safety and reliability. Proposed in this article is a novel testing framework based on a model of computation that generates scenarios and attacks in a closed-loop manner, while measuring the safety of the unit under testing (UUT), using a verification vector. The framework was applied for testing the performance of two cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) controllers under false data injection (FDI) attacks. Serving as the baseline controller is one of a traditional design, while the proposed controller uses a resilient design that combines a model and learning-based algorithm to detect and mitigate FDI attacks in real-time.

Currently used refrigerants for the automotive industry are not suitable for heat pump application for EVs. Hence, the future of HFO-1234yf is uncertain as it is not acceptable for EV application, specifically for heating. Also, this refrigerant is a known PFAS, a known chemical that affects human health. Automotive industry is working with refrigerant suppliers to develop an alternative refrigerant suitable for heat pump application that does not affect human health. This session will address the potential shortcomings of the current refrigerant and new or natural refrigerants that can be used as alternatives.

The development of ramjet engines has experienced a significant increase in response to the growing demand for supersonic speed capabilities in contemporary propulsion systems and missile weaponry. Their efficient operation at supersonic speeds has garnered increased attention. The study focuses on designing a diffuser and ram cone for decelerating supersonic flow in the combustion chamber. Performance tests for hydrogen and ethanol fuels are conducted at Mach values of 3.5, 3, and 2.5. Injectors are positioned asymmetrically in parallel, perpendicular, and at a 45-degree angle to the flow. Effects of injector orifice diameters (0.8mm, 1mm, 1.2mm) on atomization and penetration length distribution are investigated. SolidWorks is used for design, and Ansys with a coupled implicit second-order upwind solver analyzes the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation. Eddy dissipation handles combustion. Hydrogen and ethanol are modeled and injected, reacting with atmospheric oxygen.

With the present state of the art technology, size and mass of the satellites have come down. This necessitated the need for a low shock separation system that does not have mass attached to the separated satellite. Development of Nano satellites with mass of the order of 1 to 24 kg has become popular among scientific/ academic institutions for carrying out scientific experiments. INLS 3U Unipod System (Nano satellite dispenser system) is a satellite dispensing system designed by ISRO for accommodating four 3U class Nano satellites in a single structure where each satellite is deployed independently by separate actuation commands. INLS stands for ISRO's Nano satellite Launch System. The Unipod separation system successfully flown first time in PSLV C56 Mission for the deployment of three foreign satellites namely Nulion, Galassia-2 and SCOOB II.

Abstract Neutralization of acidic contaminants in engine lubricating oil is an important topic for engine manufacturers. Often, the deterioration in total base number (TBN) and increase in total acid number (TAN) during engine test operation is used as an indication of oil lifetime. This is clearly an oversimplification given that no consideration is given to how corrosive the acid is, and how effective the base is at neutralizing different acids. The work detailed here will explore how the presence of inorganic acids can be combated by lubricant additives, such as overbased detergents, through rapid neutralization. To achieve this, stopped-flow UV/visible spectroscopy has been used to measure the reaction kinetics between an overbased detergent and sulfuric acid containing water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsion droplets. The key structural properties of overbased detergents that contribute to effective acid neutralization will be explored.

Abstract Because of the growing interest in LTE-V2X, there is a need to describe its performance under various conditions and scenarios. This article explores the deployment of long-term evolution vehicle-to-everything (LTE-V2X) technology for vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication and delves into the deployment of LTE-V2X communication in three major global regions: the United States, Europe, and China. We begin with an overview of the functionality of LTE-V2X and highlight the objectives of V2I communication in terms of safety and mobility applications—and describe why it will be the predominant type of V2X in the first few years of deployment. We also examine the specific Day-1 V2I message sets standardized in each region, along with their potential applications and benefits. The technical details and use cases using these messages are discussed, along with the benefits they offer in improving the accuracy, reliability, and safety for surface transportation.

Fastener joints play a critical role within aircraft engine structures by connecting vital structural members and withstanding various load scenarios, including impact occurrences like foreign object damage (FOD) on engine nacelles. The precise modeling and simulation of fastener joint behavior under dynamic loads are pivotal to ensuring their structural integrity and functionality. Simulation is essential for minimizing costly experiments in evaluating the challenging design aspect of containing FOD. Prior investigations on fastener joints have predominantly focused on quasi-static or in-plane dynamic loads. This study introduces a comprehensive methodology to simulate the impact dynamics of fastener joints, accommodating both in-plane and out-of-plane loads. The approach employs a fully self-consistent 3D viscoplastic finite element formulation-based simulation using a newly developed code.
