Abstract: The movement of a vehicle is controlled by actuating actuators which apply a braking force to the wheels. For this purpose, the rotational speeds of the wheels, the steering angle and at least one of the lateral acceleration and the yawing movement of the vehicle are detected. A first module is configured so that the actuators are actuated by means of the actuation signals with the effect of controlling a first variable. The second module is configured so that signals for influencing the actuation signals are formed with the effect of controlling a second control variable. In order to obtain this second control variable, at least the variable which represents the steering angle is processed. The second controller component brings about a control of a variable which is determined at least as a function of the lateral movement or the yawing movement of the vehicle.

Abstract: A movement variable which represents the movement of a vehicle is controlled by actuating at least one actuator for applying a braking force to the wheels. Controller means use controller internal variables to form signals for influencing the actuators with the effect of adjusting a control variable. The controller means has a first area adapted to the respective selected sensor configuration in such a way that the controller-internal variables are formed on the basis of the sensor signals, and a second area for processing the controller-internal variables independently of the selection of the sensor configuration. As a result, simple adaptation with low development and application outlay to a wide variety of sensor configurations is possible.

Abstract: First and second signals representing unevenness of the roadway are generated for at least one wheel, and brake pressure is controlled using control parameters based on the second signal. The first signal is compared to a first threshold which is dependent on the second signal, and an extreme value signal which represents large impacts on the vehicle is generated when the threshold is exceeded. The control parameters are then adjusted so that the channels for controlling brake pressure at each controlled wheel are less sensitive.

Abstract: On the two main surfaces of a semiconductor disc of a large diameter, high-performance semiconductor component, there are soldered one bundle each of metal wires. The other ends of the metal wires are soldered to heat dissipating discs. The metal wires, with increasing distance from the center, are of increasing lengths in order to absorb the differences in the thermal expansion of the semiconductor disc and the heat dissipating discs. Metal ring portions and a ceramic housing complete the semiconductorcomponent. A secure and desirable contact of the semiconductor discs is achieved without the application of pressure.
