Abstract: A braking system for vehicles includes wheel brakes, a pressure-providing device for actuating the wheel brakes, a master brake cylinder having a primary pressure chamber, a secondary pressure chamber, and a secondary piston. The primary pressure chamber is separated from a first set of the wheel brakes by a first, normally open separating valve, and the secondary pressure chamber is separated from a second set of the wheel brakes by a second, normally open separating valve. A pressure medium reservoir is connected to the secondary pressure chamber in the unactuated state of the secondary piston, the braking system is activated in order to actively build up pressure in the brakes in a by-wire operating mode by the pressure-providing device. In the event of a pressure medium surplus in the wheel brakes, the second separating valve is opened if a release of the brake pedal by the driver is detected.

Abstract: A method protects a technical installation that enables physical entry by persons to the installation and a computerized access to a computer device of the installation. Persons who have current access to the computer device are registered as persons accessing the computer device leading to a formation of registered computer user data, and persons who are present in the installation are registered as persons present on site leading to a formation of registered on-site data. In the event of a new desired entry or a new desired access, a plausibility check is carried out in which a check is made as to whether the desired entry is plausibly compatible with the registered computer user data or whether the desired access is plausibly compatible with the registered on-site data.

Abstract: A method of determining an initial pressure prevailing between a master brake cylinder and an inlet valve of a wheel brake cylinder of a motor vehicle determines the initial pressure taking into consideration the variation of a voltage of a PWMoperated motor of a pump, which is used for the return delivery of brake fluid from a low-pressure accumulator into the master brake cylinder. Several characteristic quantities of the voltage variation are measured and converted to respective initial pressure values. The characteristic quantities or the initial pressure values determined therefrom are filtered or conditioned in the event of lack in quality or reliability of the measured characteristic quantities. The respective initial pressure values of similar size are averaged, and the averaged initial pressure values are temporally averaged in order to dampen fluctuations.
