Abstract: A method can include: acquiring, via one or more sensors disposed in a vehicle, one or more engine operation parameters relating to operation of an internal combustion engine disposed along a coolant flow path in the vehicle; calculating at least one target coolant temperature according to the one or more engine operation parameters; and controlling a valve actuator to regulate flow of a coolant through the coolant flow path via an electric coolant valve operatively coupled to the valve actuator such that a temperature of the coolant changes in accordance with the at least one target coolant temperature.

Abstract: A method can include: detecting a distance between the host vehicle and a preceding vehicle and a current speed of the preceding vehicle; calculating a relative speed of the host vehicle with respect to the preceding vehicle based on a current speed of the host vehicle and the detected current speed of the preceding vehicle; determining whether to activate an engine idle sailing (EIS) function, in which a driving gear of the host vehicle shifts to neutral, based on the relative speed of the host vehicle with respect to the preceding vehicle and the detected distance between the host vehicle and the preceding vehicle; and in response to determining to activate the EIS function of the host vehicle, controlling operation of the host vehicle so as to activate the EIS function of the host vehicle, causing the driving gear of the host vehicle to shift to neutral.

Abstract: A method for controlling activation of an ISG system is provided. The method includes obtaining a current vehicle location and determining whether the current vehicle location is within an ISG inhibition area. When the current location of the vehicle is within the ISG inhibition area, an ISG mode is automatically inhibited to prevent the engine from being turned off.

Abstract: A method for controlling an engine start of an idle stop and go vehicle is provided. The method includes detecting an engine stop and a brake pedal engagement and in response, detecting whether a target vehicle is located in a vicinity of the vehicle. A position of the target vehicle is also detected and when the position changes, the engine of the vehicle is restarted.

Abstract: A method for controlling an ISG system is provided. The method includes obtaining a current vehicle location and determining whether the current vehicle location is within a predetermined distance from a preset location or a traffic sign. When the current vehicle location is within the predetermined distance from the preset location or the traffic sign, an ISG mode of the ISG system is automatically inhibited.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a vehicle system including: an engine having a crankshaft to generate power; a starter motor electrically connected to a battery to start the engine; an alternator operatively connected to the crankshaft of the engine so as to generate electric power and charge the battery; a capacitor electrically connected to the alternator, the battery, and the starter motor, and enable to store the generated electric power based on a state of charge (SOC) of the battery and capacitor; and a controller to control electric connections between the alternator, the capacitor, the battery, and the starter motor. In particular, the controller determines an idle stop mode and controls a position of the crankshaft by applying a calculated electric load to the alternator such that the crankshaft position is located in a predetermined range.

Abstract: An apparatus for correcting a three dimensional space-angle of a drill for a dental hand piece, including: a housing provided on a fixing unit of the dental hand piece; a first sensing unit for measuring an angle of the housing in real-time; a second sensing unit for measuring an angle of a head portion or jaw of the patient in real-time; an operating unit for calculating the three-dimensional space angle of the drill; a setting unit for setting a reference three-dimensional space angle of the drill with respect to the tooth structure as a three-dimensional space angle that the operator is wanting among the three-dimensional space angles of the operating unit; and a display unit for displaying an alert message when the three-dimensional space angle of the operating unit deviates from a predetermined range of the reference three-dimensional space angle.
