In the fault diagnosis, the transmission characteristics between the individual actuators and the individual sensors are measured. On the basis of the measurements, a fault is decided on for all the transmission paths between the individual actuators and the individual sensors, thereby estimating a faulty point from the pattern of the fault decision of the transmission paths.

Abstract: A mounting member fixed to an engine and a mounting member fixed to a vehicle body are interconnected by a hollow elastomeric block which has a variable-volume primary fluid chamber defined therein. A subsidiary fluid chamber having a diaphragm on a portion of an outer wall thereof communicates with the primary fluid chamber through two fluid passages. A movable plate forming a portion of the outer wall of the primary fluid chamber is connected to a voice coil motor, and by one example, is driven at the same phase as a vibration applied from the engine. During a normal traveling, both the fluid chambers communicate with each other through the fluid passage having a smaller length. During idling or during a low speed traveling, a switch-over valve is operated to permit both the fluid chamber to be put into communication with each other through the fluid passage having a larger length.

Abstract: A plurality of pulse signals (trigger signals) responsive to driving of a power plant are directly supplied to respective adaptive control circuits each having an adaptive digital filter for controlling components of periodic or semi-periodic vibrations and noises ascribed to related component parts of a vibration/noise source. Further, the adaptive control is performed while varying a sampling frequency in response to changes in parameters of operating conditions of the power plant. Optionally, a control signal from the adaptive digital filter is corrected for gain. Further, periodic signal-eliminating means is provided for determining a transfer characteristic of a system to which the adaptive control is applied, based on a residual component signal from the periodic signal-eliminating means, a random signal having a low amplitude level, etc.
