Abstract: An event is classified as a fault of hardware or a fault of a system or a control system. When the event is classified as the fault of the hardware, the event is expanded into lower events, physical quantities of the event and the lower events are acquired, and it is examined whether the event is expanded properly or not based on relationship between the physical quantity of the event and the physical quantities of the lower events. When the event is classified as the fault of the system or the control system, a block diagram of the system or the control system is created, and the event is expanded into the lower events based on input/output relationship in the block diagram of the system or the control system.

Abstract: An automatic transmission includes a park rod adapted to non-rotatably lock an output shaft of the automatic transmission, an actuator adapted to drive the park rod, and an ATCU adapted to drive the actuator when a setting range of the automatic transmission is set into a P range.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a control device and a control method for a vehicle in which a lockup clutch is disengaged when a rotation speed of an engine falls below a disengagement rotation speed. The device/method changes a speed ratio of a variator on the basis of a shifting map in which a primary pulley rotation speed on a coast line is set higher than a primary pulley rotation speed on a drive line and sets a target input rotation speed of the variator to a predetermined target input rotation speed higher than the primary pulley rotation speed on the drive line when an operation of an accelerator pedal is performed such that an accelerator pedal opening falls to a first predetermined opening or less. As a result, the present invention can suppress drop of fuel efficiency of the engine caused by disengagement of the lockup clutch which is a friction engagement element.
