Abstract: A method is described for determining multiplicative faults of a sensor installed in a system comprising a plurality of sensors, comprising the steps of:—detecting an effective target signal (s) from a target sensor, representative of a target quantity of the system;—detecting one or more auxiliary signals respectively from one or more auxiliary sensors of the system besides the target sensor, representative of auxiliary quantities of the system;—determining an estimated target signal (s*) representative of the target quantity from the one or more auxiliary signals;—determining a first quadratic difference (r+) between the effective target signal (s) multiplied by a multiplicative positive factor (cr+) greater than 1, and the estimated target signal (s*);—determining a second quadratic difference (r) between the effective target signal (s) and estimated target signal (s*);—determining a third quadratic difference (r?) between the effective target signal (s) multiplied by a positive multiplicative factor (c?)

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of controlling the stability of a two-wheeled vehicle including a first wheel associated with a first suspension and a second wheel associated with a second suspension. The method includes: detecting a signal representing the roll angle and detecting a signal representing the roll angular speed of the vehicle; detecting a signal representing the first force imposed on the first suspension; detecting a control signal representing the reference force to impose to the second suspension according to the signals representing the roll angle, of the roll angular speed and the first force. The present invention is also related to a system for controlling the stability of a two-wheeled vehicle.

Abstract: A method for controlling four semi-active suspensions of a vehicle comprising the steps of: determining, for each semi-active suspension, a first and a second signal representative of the acceleration and speed of the sprung mass; determining, for a pair of semi-active suspensions arranged on one side of the vehicle a third and a four signal representative of the acceleration and pitch speed; calculating for each semi-active suspension, a first damping coefficient as a function of the difference between the first and second signal squared; calculating for each semi-active suspension, a second damping coefficient as a function of the difference between the third and the four signal squared; for each semi-active suspension, comparing the first and the second damping coefficient for determining the higher coefficient; applying to each force generator device, an electronic control signal indicative of the respective high damping coefficient.
