Abstract: An on-board power subsystem has an energy storage unit and a control device for charging the energy storage unit, as well as an on-board power connection for connection to electrical components of the vehicle, and a DC voltage connection for connection to a land-based charging station and an energy subsystem. A switching device is arranged between the on-board power connection and the energy subsystem, and a charger is arranged between the energy storage unit and the energy subsystem. The on-board power subsystem has at least one power converter connected on the AC voltage side to the energy subsystem and operable both as an AC/DC converter and as a DC/DC converter. The control device can operate the energy subsystem as a DC voltage grid during the charging process and as an AC voltage grid during independent operation of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method and a device for simulating a body that is moved in a translational or rotational manner. The method includes detecting a force that acts on the body or a torque (MW), and assigning a reference mass or a reference moment of inertia (Jsoll) to the body. The force or the torque (Mw) and the reference mass or the reference moment of inertia (Jsoll) are used to determine a reference speed (?soll) for a speed control which controls an actual speed (?ist) using a control transmission function (G(s)), and the reference speed (?soll) is determined by means of a transmission element using a transmission function (P(s)) that is reciprocally proportional to the control transmission function (G(s)).

Abstract: A diesel-electric locomotive includes an assembly including a diesel engine and a generator, to which a drive unit is connected. The diesel engine is connected to a cooling system holding fluid. The drive unit is electrically connected to a braking resistor. There is provision for the braking resistor to be arranged in the cooling system so as to give off heat to the fluid. For example, the braking resistor is connected to a separate heating voltage source which may be, for example, a voltage source in a second locomotive which is coupled to the locomotive in a traction grouping.
