• Resumen

  • The objective of the research described in this paper, which was carried out in collaboration with the Fiat Auto Direzione Tecnica, was the definition and development of a technical design standard for an electrical power steering (EPS) system, a system mounted on the steering column which assists the driver in maintaining directional control of the vehicle, and the subsequent integration of this standard with existing Fiat Auto Standards. This work required the development of correlation and risk matrices, well-established methodologies used by the Fiat Auto Technical Memory.
