Electronic Engine Control Technologies (Progress in Technology)

In this second edition of Electronic Engine Control Technologies, the latest advances and technologies of electronic engine control are explored in a comprehensive collection of more than 100 recent technical papers, none of which were included in the book's first edition.

Editor Ronald K. Jurgen offers an informative introduction, "Neural Networks on the Rise," clearly explaining the book's overall format and layout. The book then closely examines the many areas surrounding electronic engine control technologies, including: specific engine controls, diagnostics, engine modeling, innovative solid-state hardware and software systems, communication techniques for engine control, neural network applications, and the future of electronic engine controls.
