A new cycle-detailed hybrid model of the engine that captures well the interactions between the discrete phenomena of torque generation and spark ignition, and the continuous evolution of the power-train and air dynamics, is proposed. The idle control problem is formalized as a safety specification problem on the hybrid system. The Tomlin-Lygeros-Sastry procedure [12] is ...

A cycle-detailed hybrid model of the engine that captures well the interactions between the discrete phenomena of torque generation and spark ignition, and the continuous evolution of the power-train and air dynamics, is proposed. The maximal robust-controlled invariant set that satisfies the specification is determined and the maximal controller for the engine in idle is ...
