Wetting prediction of power train components under the influence moving components using smooth particle hydrodynamics2026-26-03841/16/2026
Passenger cars are subjected to extensive conditions ranging from driving through wet roads, water puddles, icy roads, and rain. This can affect the performance of different parts over time, one such aspect is the vehicle corrosion, whose impact is felt on a wide spectrum from aesthetics to safety due to loss of material. The general condition for corrosion mainly requires electrolyte to be present on the metal surface, which is transported through self-soiling and foreign soiling. Vehicle soiling is an important aspect for vehicle design. Amongst the many aspects of vehicle soiling, one important aspect is the prediction of water accumulation that enables prediction of corrosion sensitive regions in the vehicle. Power train components like Engine, transmission and corresponding wiring harness are at highest risk of water-wetting, As the vehicle drives through the water pool the components are not just wet by the direct inflow of water but also by water being splashed by moving

Life Cycle Assessment of Automotive Cables and GHG Emission Reduction Scenario in Indian Context2026-26-02401/16/2026
Globally, the emissions share of transport is 15%, out of which more than 2/3rd emissions are contributed by road transport as per 2014 report of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The need of mitigation measures in transport sector has been realised however the study of life cycle emission needs to be done with the tailpipe emissions so that some holistic solution can be worked upon. Strikingly, in the life cycle studies of a passenger car, it was found that the share of raw materials related to copper is around 50% of the total amount of raw material used and the share of copper in the curb weight of vehicle is just 1%. Also, for an Internal Combustion Engine vehicle (ICE), mostly the copper is used in the wiring harness. In this paper, the life cycle assessment of wiring harness is done to understand the environmental impacts throughout the life cycle stages. The comparative study of aluminium alloy and copper has also been done to know the change in environmental

Novel Approach on Material characterization Testing of various Wiring Harness2026-26-05481/16/2026
The automotive wiring harness (length of 4-5 km) is a very important and complex system in the development of a modern car due to a lot of new electric & electronic components and sensors. It is a very sensitive material unlike metals and is considered as a composite which is highly anisotropic in nature, as it consists of several different layers of copper/aluminum strands and insulation. Because of insulation, wiring harness exhibits viscous plastic behavior which is crucial in determining the durability and long-term performance of the cables. Material properties play an important role in determining the behavior of wiring harness after assembly into the car. Wiring harness may undergo Bending, Torsion and Tension loads, causing the stress and strain in the individual electrical wires. The lack of CAE validation of the wiring harness routing may lead to extra costs for the automotive OEMs over a period. This paper describes the novel method of Testing the Cables and Bundles used in

Next Gen Automotive EDS Architecture design verification using real-time function mode simulation & failure condition analysis2026-26-04541/16/2026
In current automotive electrical design practices, simulation and functional verification of the Electrical Distribution System (EDS) at the design stage are largely absent. Typically, the validation of controller behaviour and EDS wiring is performed only during HIL, SIL, MIL, prototype testing, or physical vehicle trials, often revealing issues late in the development cycle. This delay leads to costly redesigns, prolonged timelines, and increased chances of failure during vehicle integration. Therefore, there is a critical need for an early-stage simulation methodology that ensures robust EDS and controller design, enabling "first-time-right" readiness at the design stage itself. The proposed simulation framework introduces a function mode-based structural approach, where individual vehicle functions are mapped to their corresponding electrical circuits within the vehicle’s wiring system. Resistance values are allocated to specific paths depending on the active function or

Integrated Powertrain Domain Controller Using Wide Band Gap Devices For EV Applications2026-26-00551/16/2026
The rapid evolution of electric vehicles (EVs) has amplified the demand for highly integrated, efficient, and intelligent powertrain architectures. In the current automotive landscape, EV powertrain systems are often composed of discrete ECUs such as the OBC, MCU, DC-DC Converter, PDU, and VCU, each operating in isolation. This fragmented approach adds wiring harness complexity, control latency, system inefficiency, and inflates costs making it harder for OEMs to scale operations, lower expenses, and accelerate time-to-market. This paper addresses the core issue of fragmented control architectures in EV powertrains by proposing an integrated domain controller-based solution for EV powertrain. The technical gap lies in the absence of a centralized intelligence capable of seamlessly managing and synchronizing the five key powertrain aggregates: OBC, MCU, DC-DC, PDU, and VCU under a unified software and hardware platform. This fragmentation leads to redundancy in computation, increased

Aircraft Electrical Wiring Organization - Key to an Autonomous AIF-0080-2024-00055/7/2024
An essential component for the advancement of autonomous flight lies in the development of an intelligent routing system designed to facilitate the maintenance and troubleshooting of electrical wiring. Utilizing software with the capability to present routed paths in a computer-aided design (CAD) format allows for a detailed representation of the rules governing the layout of wiring around structural supports and distribution channels. Despite this, three-dimensional (3D) methodologies have yet to fully incorporate critical data related to the characterization of individual wiring signals, hindering automatic routing. This paper underscores a competitive edge that can be achieved by expanding 3D capabilities to accurately depict the current state of wiring signals in terms of temperature, humidity, electromagnetic frequency, amperage, and other relevant factors. Achieving this involves integrating a non-intrusive smart sensing technology with the intelligent routing system to monitor

Impact of Engine Failure on the Wiring Harness Design of Electric VTOL AircraftF-0080-2024-10525/7/2024
This paper deals with the influence of engine failure during hover on the wiring harness mass of electrical Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft. It starts by presenting possible strategies which can be used to distribute the additional thrust needed during an engine failure among the remaining engines. The most efficient strategy is selected and the impact of different single engine failures on the overall thrust share, while using this strategy, is discussed. The paper proceeds by applying the selected thrust compensation strategy to the mission simulation of three common reference models, which are representative of current eVTOL aircraft configurations. This simulation is used to determine the worst flight phase for the One Engine Inoperative (OEI) condition to occur. The main purpose of the simulation is to optimize the wire sizes of the wiring harness of each configuration while satisfying different design objectives. The results of these optimizations are used to

Improving the Sound Transmission Loss of Wire Harness Pass Throughs2025-01-01185/5/2023
Abstract Improving the Sound Transmission Loss of Wire Harness Pass Throughs For years the NVH community has known that openings in the dash sheet metal, such as holes to pass wire harnesses through, create an acoustical weak point that limits the potential noise reduction of the dash insulation system. These pass throughs can also be a source of water leaks into the vehicle’s interior. With the combustible engine and now electric inverter power plants, the need to seal this area is vital. By molding a lightweight barrier that draws through the fiber/absorber interior decoupler and dash sheet metal which mates to a secondary seal molded into an outer engine dash decoupler, the two opposing molded barriers meet in the engine compartment and compress together forming a seal around the wire harness. This male/female molded seal replaces the conventional snap in grommet and eliminates noise/water leaks. The system Sound Transmission Loss (STL) is equivalent to similarly insulated sheet

Evaluation of Cable Harness of an Electric Vehicle Powertrain through Simulation2021-26-03509/22/2021
The Electric Vehicles (EV) or Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) has a bunch of electrical/electronic components and its operation give rise to complicated EMI/EMC issues. The Power Electronics Module (PEM), comprising of DC-DC convertor and Battery Management Unit (BMU), is driving the inverter and motor to propel the vehicle. “Battery Pack Module” powers these units through cables. The fast switching of these circuit elements present in the system leads to noise propagation through the cables. These noise signals give rise to various Electromagnetic (EM) related issues in the cable harness of vehicle. It is essential that these cables should not interfere with other electronic components and also does not get effected by external EM disturbances. The critical EM aspects such as Cable Coupling, Immunity of cable in EM environment (Radiated Immunity) as per AIS-004, Emission from the power cables (Radiated Emission) as per AIS-004, Shielding Effectiveness for cable harness of the EV

Research in OFDM-Based High-Speed In-Vehicle Network Connectivity for Cameras and Displays2021-01-01514/6/2021
Growing trends of connected and autonomous vehicles have pushed for increased resolutions of cameras to 8Mpix and displays to 4K/8K, leading to requirements for high-speed interfaces that support 10Gbps and beyond. Unlike data center or enterprise networks which normally operates under controlled indoor environments, in-vehicle networks are required to operate in harsh temperature and interference environments. Due to cost restrictions, the use of single pair wire is prevalent for in-vehicle networks. In general, as data transmission speed increase, signal spectrum spreads across greater frequency range. Since insertion loss of a channel increases in proportion to signal frequency, it becomes more difficult to secure SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) margins as bit rate increases. This makes it increasingly difficult for a device (e.g. ECUs, sensors, and displays) with high-speed communication interface to meet EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) criteria imposed by automotive OEMs. If this

The Influence of the Wiring Harness on the System Performance of eVTOL Aircraft on the Example of Common Reference ModelsF-0076-2020-1640410/5/2020
This paper deals with the influence of the wiring harness on the system performance of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The architecture and connections of the wiring harness are formalized using graph theory. The adjacency and incidence matrices provided by algebraic graph theory are used to define the harness connections and links. The current flows within the harness are calculated by applying Kirchhoff’s and Ohm's law to the network equations. Three common reference models are used to simulate and optimize different harness architectures. The harness architectures differ in the kind of connection and number of harness links. The optimization is done using two objectives. One objective is to maximize the range of the aircraft. The other objective, to minimize the harness mass, is used to show the performance difference of such a wiring harness. The influence of the system voltage and the take-off mass are examined as well. The results of the optimizations
