Abstract: The present apparatus relates to an apparatus for the guying of a lattice boom of a crane, in particular of a mobile crane, comprising a frame and two connection elements connected thereto, wherein the frame has first attachment means for a releasable connection of the apparatus to a guying of the crane and wherein the connection elements have two attachment means for a releasable fastening of the apparatus to the boom. In accordance with the invention, the apparatus can be assembled at the boom for assembly thereat and can be removed again after the boom has been assembled. The present invention further relates to a respective method for the in the air assembly and for the restoring to the original state and the guying of a lattice boom by means of the apparatus in accordance with the invention.

Abstract: In a method, one or more processing devices perform operations. Such operations include receiving a signal to display a widget for one or more objects displayed in virtual space. The operations further include computing a bounding box for the one or more objects, the bounding box including a bottom section having a set of corners. The operations further include determining, from among the set of corners, a first corner and a second corner that are, respectively, closest and second closest to a virtual camera position. The operations further include generating the widget based on the bounding box, the first corner, and the second corner. The widget includes a first axis handle connected to a second axis handle at the first corner and further connected to a third axis handle at the second corner. The operations further include causing display of the widget along with the one or more objects.

Abstract: Operations of a method include accessing a first object and a second object positioned in virtual three-dimensional (3D) space. The operations further include moving the first object from a first position to a second position, responsive to a user request. The operations include computing a ray extending from a reference point of the first object, in the second position, in a direction of a first dimension. The operations include computing a pixel distance in screen space between a first plane of a first bounding box of the first object and a second plane of a second bounding box of the second object along the ray. Additionally, the method includes snapping the first object into alignment by moving the first object an additional distance to position a face of the first bounding box into the second plane, based on the pixel distance being no greater than an error value.

Abstract: A compensating method is provided for avoiding a bouncing movement of a wheel of a motor vehicle. The motor vehicle comprises an unsprung mass (m) that is attached in a movable manner to a sprung mass, wherein the unsprung mass (m) comprises the wheel, and an actuator that is embodied so as to apply a force (K) between the sprung mass and the unsprung mass (m). During a movement of the unsprung mass (m) relative to the sprung mass in an application of force by means of the open loop control of the actuator by the method, a force (K) is applied between the sprung mass and the unsprung mass (m) so as to damp the movement. A motor vehicle implementing the method is also provided.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a first axle, second axle, driveshaft, engine, clutch, and controller. The first and second axles are coupled by the driveshaft. The engine is configured to generate torque in the first axle. The clutch is configured to disconnect an output of the second axle. The controller is programmed to, responsive to a clutch release request that would result in an increasing commanded torque to the first axle being greater than a threshold, decrease an engine torque such that a first axle torque is less than the threshold.
