Engine systems
Published in Tom Denton, Advanced Automotive Fault Diagnosis, 2020
A separate three-dimensional map is used which has eight speed and eight temperature sites. This is used to add corrections for engine coolant temperature to the basic timing settings. This improves driveability and can be used to decrease the warm-up time of the engine. The data is also subjected to an additional load correction below 70°C. Figure 6.12 shows a flow chart representing the logical selection of the optimum ignition setting. Note that the ECU will also make corrections to the dwell angle, both as a function of engine speed to provide constant energy output and due to changes in battery voltage. A lower battery voltage will require a slightly longer dwell and a higher battery voltage will require a slightly shorter dwell. A Windows® shareware program that simulates the ignition system (as well as many other systems) is available for download from my website.

Several hydro-sedimentary numerical codes are available. Among them, some are commercial or shareware and others are freeware. According to the industrial needs, CNR decided to evaluate the capabilities of three different 1-D hydro-sedimentary numerical codes, commonly used in France in engineering or research projects, in order to know the advantages and disadvantages of each one: (i) Telemac-Mascaret/Courlis (EDF), (ii) HEC-RAS (Corps of Engineers of the US Army) a software used worldwide and (iii) Mage/AdisTS (Irstea); both EDF and Irstea are French institutions working together with CNR to develop this project.
Displaying Software Installation Agreements to Motivate Users’ Reading
Published in International Journal of Human–Computer Interaction, 2022
Application-related software is the intermediary between system software and application software, and it is the type of software most downloaded by Internet users (Liu, 2020). While freeware and public-domain software are free of charge, most users are willing to pay for shareware and commercial software (Corbly, 2014). These types of software are protected by intellectual property rights or copyright laws. Although users know that copyrighted application software can only be downloaded with purchase, most of them wish to be exempt from paying the fee when downloading to save money and thus engage in software piracy behaviors (Banerjee & Poddar, 2013).
