DISC engines have two discrete modes of operation, stratified and homogeneous, and their dynamic behavior can be easily captured by a hybrid model. We show that the design flow (hybrid modeling and controller synthesis) is simple in terms of problem setup and tuning, provides good closed-loop performance, and leads to a control law that can be implemented on automotive hardware as a piecewise affine function of the measured and estimated quantities. date: 2002 date_type: published publication: Symposium on Advanced Automotive Technologies, ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress an volume: 36290 publisher: ASME pagerange: 691-698 event_dates: New Orleans, LA id_number: 10.1115/IMECE2002-32102 refereed: TRUE isbn: 0-7918-3629-0 book_title: Symposium on Advanced Automotive Technologies, ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress an official_url: http://link.aip.org/link/abstract/ASMECP/v2002/i36290/p691/s1 citation: Bemporad, Alberto and Giorgetti, Nicolò and Kolmanovsky, Ilya and Hrovat, Davor Hybrid modeling and control of a direct injection stratified charge engine.
