Abstract: A method and a device for acquiring measurement data of a machine and a tire curing press including a device for acquiring measurement data. Measurement data is captured and digitally processed in order to obtain information about the condition of a machine and to derive recommendations for action for maintenance, repair or overhaul as well as process optimization of the machine.

Abstract: A pneumatic vehicle tire has a radial configuration and includes a belt assembly having at least three plies including two working plies and a protective ply arranged radially outwardly with respect to the two working plies. Each of the three plies has reinforcements and each of the reinforcements includes at least one steel filament. The reinforcements of each of the plies are arranged mutually parallel and spaced from each other. The steel filaments have a filament diameter in a range of 0.10 mm to 0.35 mm. The reinforcements have a reinforcement diameter in a range of 0.20 to 0.85 mm. The reinforcements of the protective ply have a rupture strength lying in a range of 15 kN/dm to 95 kN/dm and the reinforcements of the protective ply are arranged in the protective ply with a density in a range of 50 to 120 ends per decimeter.

Abstract: A navigation system may display route information that includes a display of the fixtures that are located on or near the route. The fixtures may be selected and inserted into the digital map as graphical objects. The graphical objects may be classified into a class and at least one sub-class. The classification data may be used to select and generate the graphical objects.

Abstract: A terrain modeling system provides a terrain model having variable resolution. The system receives an input terrain made up of raster points. The system identifies raster points that differ in height from an adjacent raster point by a threshold. The system interpolates the identified raster points to calculate one or more B-spline surfaces. The surfaces correspond to a multi-dimensional representation of a physical terrain.

Abstract: A navigation system is provided that includes a storage unit, a processing unit, and an optical output unit. The storage unit includes a first storage portion for storing type definition data for a plurality of object types, the type definition data defining a graphical representation of an object type in terms of at least one basic geometrical shape. A second storage portion includes object data for a plurality of objects, the object data for an object comprising object type data specifying an object type of the object and object position data specifying an object position of the object. To display an object having a specific object type, the processing unit reads the type definition data of the corresponding object type from the first storage portion and generates graphical representations of the basic geometrical shapes that constitute the object type on the optical output unit.
