Abstract: In order to monitor the condition of a machine, current operating data relating to the machine are continuously captured and are taken as a basis for continuously simulating a current operating behavior of a machine component by a concurrent simulation module. Furthermore, performance values quantifying a current performance of the machine component are continuously derived from the simulated operating behavior and are stored over time. In addition, a performance normal value is regularly determined on the basis of a multiplicity of performance values which were derived earlier. The operating data and/or the performance values are monitored in order to determine whether a predefined first change pattern occurs. Detection of the first change pattern then causes a performance reference value to be updated with the current performance normal value. In addition, the respective current performance values are continuously compared with the current performance reference value in each case.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for operating a multi-gear vehicle transmission having a plurality of shifting elements (A, B, C, D, E) for engaging the gears of the vehicle transmission, where, in a neutral gear an input (AN) and an output (AB) of the vehicle transmission are decoupled from one another, and where, in a driving gear the input (AN) and the output (AB) of the vehicle transmission are coupled to one another in order to propel the vehicle, by closing at least one shifting element (B). When the neutral gear is engaged, at least an actuation condition of a vehicle brake (11) and a transmission condition with elevated drag losses are detected, where, when the neutral gear is engaged, the shifting element (B) for the driving gear is vented if it is recognized that the vehicle brake (11) has been released and the transmission condition with elevated drag losses pertains.

Abstract: The speed and security of the monitoring the operation of a drive component is improved by transferring data relating to the drive component and/or to the operation of the drive component to a central IT infrastructure. Within the central IT infrastructure, the transferred data are associated with a first model of the drive component, and with a second model of at least one virtual component associated with the first model. An operating state of the drive component is determined from a correlation of the first and second models.

Abstract: A method for the computer-aided processing of operating data relating to a technical system, wherein the operating data have been captured during operation of the technical system in a predefined operating interval and are stored as digital data in a memory is provided. A pair of first state variables and one or more second state variables with corresponding state values of the technical system at the particular operating time are extracted from the operating data by the method. A two-dimensional representation is generated on a display of a user interface by these state variables. Bar charts for different state ranges of the pairs of first state variables are generated in this representation on the basis of the evaluation of a threshold value criterion, wherein the bar charts represent, inter alia, how many states of the technical system within the particular state range can be classified as critical.
