Abstract
Keywords: Automotive; fault tolerant control; engine control.
The paper underlines the necessity of implementing specialized transducers as components of the manufactured parts that could provide real-time information concerning the working process of the technical processes, especially for the automobiles. It is also underlined that modern technique and technologies provide normal working conditions, satisfying all the inquired demands, even under the conditions of manufacturing lack of accuracy, mounting, tuning and maintenance, due to the electronic control of the incorporated transducers. Some examples of functional interactions are presented, using the experimental data got during testing a car. It is also underlined the necessity of a minimal set of transducers and executive devices that should allow a working regime within the imposed conditions taking into account the normal wear of the system.
