  • METHOD TO PROVIDE PERSONALIZED MEDICAL DATA
    Publication number: 20220037028
    Abstract: A method to provide personalized data of a patient includes obtaining at least one first personal data for a non-modifiable risk factor, obtaining at least one second personal data for a modifiable risk factor, and normalizing the first and second data using a lookup table, said normalized data representing an increase or decrease versus a neutral value. The method also includes adding the normalized data representing a decrease to a positive parameter, adding the normalized data representing an increase to a negative parameter, displaying the positive and the negative parameters in two distinct colors in a pie shape, the surface of each pie being proportional to the value of each parameter, and displaying in association with the pie shape, the portion of the negative parameter that results from the second personal data.

  • HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20220024442
    Abstract: A vehicle includes an internal combustion engine, an electric machine, and a controller. The electric machine is rotatably coupled to the engine and is configured to deliver electrical power to electrical accessories. The controller is programmed to, in response to a control signal loss between the electric machine and the controller, limit torque output of electric machine to less than a torque threshold that corresponds to the power threshold. The controller is further programmed to, in response an accessory power demand being greater than the power threshold, control the engine to power the electric machine to increase the torque output of electric machine to greater than the torque threshold to meet the accessory power demand.
