  • Automotive Foundational Software Solutions for the Modern Vehicle Overview
    www.qnx.com AUTOMOTIVE FOUNDATIONAL SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS FOR THE MODERN VEHICLE OVERVIEW Dear colleagues in the automotive industry, We are in the midst of a pivotal moment in the evolution of the car. Connected and autonomous cars will have a place in history alongside the birth of industrialized production of automobiles, hybrid and electric vehicles, and the globalization of the market. The industry has stretched the boundaries of technology to create ideas and innovations previously only imaginable in sci-fi movies. However, building such cars is not without its challenges. AUTOMOTIVE SOFTWARE IS COMPLEX A modern vehicle has over 100 million lines of code and autonomous vehicles will contain the most complex software ever deployed by automakers. In addition to the size of software, the software supply chain made up of multiple tiers of software suppliers is unlikely to have common established coding and security standards. This adds a layer of uncertainty in the development of a vehicle. With increased reliance on software to control critical driving functions, software needs to adhere to two primary tenets, Safety and Security. SAFETY Modern vehicles require safety certification to ISO 26262 for systems such as ADAS and digital instrument clusters. Some of these critical systems require software that is pre-certified up to ISO 26262 ASIL D, the highest safety integrity level. SECURITY BlackBerry believes that there can be no safety without security. Hackers accessing a car through a non-critical ECU system can tamper or take over a safety-critical system, such as the steering, brakes or engine systems. As the software in a car grows so does the attack surface, which makes it more vulnerable to cyberattacks.

    Testing and Advancement of a Variable Stiffness Transverse Plane Adapter for Use in a Lower Limb Prosthesis Corey Pew A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Glenn Klute, Chair Gador Canton Santosh Devasia Nate Sniadecki Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Mechanical Engineering ©Copyright 2017 Corey Pew University of Washington i Abstract Testing and Advancement of a Variable Stiffness Transverse Plane Adapter for Use in a Lower Limb Prosthesis Corey Pew Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Glenn Klute, Ph.D. Affiliate Professor Department of Mechanical Engineering Background The goal of a lower limb prosthesis is to restore the abilities of the intact limb for an individual with lower limb amputation. Daily ambulation includes many maneuvers such as turning, and twisting, which require a component of transverse plane mobility. It has been shown that the inclusion of a transverse plane adapter could reduce peak torsional loads on the residual limb and may alleviate soft tissue damage, increase comfort, and improve mobility level for a lower limb amputee. However, currently available transverse plane adaptors only allow for a single stiffness setting and do not allow for variation to accommodate the maneuvers of everyday ambulation. The specific aims of this research were to determine the transverse plane stiffness that minimizes the transverse plane moment applied to the residual limb of lower limb amputees during different ambulatory activities and identify a user’s preferred transverse plane stiffness during different ambulatory activities at different speeds. Three tasks were performed to achieve these aims.
