Abstract
Qualitative reasoning about electrical
systems has reached a level of achievement
which allows it to be used for applications
on realistic automotive circuits. The type of
circuits for which it is most effective can be
characterised as circuits with a single steady
state for each combination of inputs. Many
automotive circuits with more complex
overall behaviour can be approximated
using this type of modelling by representing
the behaviour of more complex components
only at a functional level, or by judicious
use of simplifying assumptions.
This paper will consider examples of
circuitry in modern cars where such
approximations of behaviour are
unsatisfactory, and will examine the
modelling issues that are thrown up by these
cases, in order to identify challenges for
qualitative electrical reasoning against which
future advances in the field can be assessed.
