Abstract: A method for diagnosing an internal combustion engine in a motor vehicle having at least one sensor unit, including at least one sound receiver, the sound receiver converting sound waves into an electrical signal. Sound waves of the internal combustion engine are recorded using the sound receiver of the sensor unit and converted into an electrical signal, and the electrical signal is used for the diagnosis of the operating state of the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: An adjusting device for adjusting the rotation angle position of the rotor of a wind energy system should be improved by the invention, whereby a complicated processing of the brake disc previously used for engagement of the drive is no longer necessary, and whereby said brake disc can be flexibly arranged in an area with sufficient construction space. For this purpose, the adjusting device has at least one force transducer wheel and/or a force transducing disc which is mounted or can be mounted on a shaft (1) of the drive train which is switched downstream from the rotor, which is structured for engagement of a force transmitting means, and is designed as an independent component. The device also has a drive means for producing a drive force, and at least one force transmission means for transmitting the drive force to the force transducer wheel and/or the force transducing disc.

Abstract: A system and method for securely transferring sensitive payment data across a system landscape. The system and method may utilize machine-readable media including program code stored therein executable by one or more processors to perform the transferring of payment data. The transferring of data includes generating and encrypting a data container to combine all sensitive payment data.

Abstract: Disclosed is a housing for the nacelle of a wind turbine, comprising a support structure (15) composed of tubes and braces, preferably made of metal, especially steel, or plastic, especially fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), and covering segments (2, 3, 4) which are fastened to said support structure (15). The housing is characterized in that the covering elements (2, 3, 4) have a coating surface made of plastic, especially FRP, and are self-supporting. Such a housing for the nacelle of a wind turbine can be manufactured with little effort from inexpensively produced parts and is easy to assemble. In particular, said housing combines the advantages of previously known structures that are self-supporting as a whole and the paneling of a support structure comprising parts that are not self-supporting without having the disadvantages thereof.
