Abstract: A device and method for forming NO-containing gas flow to treat a biological object is disclosed. The device may include an anode, a cathode, an interelectrode area between the cathode and the anode, an NO-containing gas flow outlet channel leading from the interelectrode area to a nozzle for directing and releasing the NO-containing gas flow from the device and a mechanism to adjust a relative position between the anode and the cathode to produce varying concentrations of NO. In addition, the device may include one or more features for interconnecting the various components to ensure proper and consistent assembly of the device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method (30) for the active damping control for an electric vehicle or hybrid vehicle having an electric motor drive element (4), comprising the steps of receiving a current target torque value (tqElmDes) of the electric motor drive element (4), determining a current rotational angle value (?ElmAct) of the electric motor drive element (4), and determining a current damping torque value (tqDmp), characterized in that the current damping torque value (tqDmp) is determined using a reduced drive train model (rTSM).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a drive device (1) of a vehicle, in particular, a motor vehicle, said device having at least one electric or hydraulic machine (2) as a drive unit. Said method consists of the following steps: determining a target drive direction (ZR) that can be set by the driver of the vehicle, detecting a current direction of travel of the vehicle and comparing the current drive direction with the target drive direction (ZR) that has been set, detecting the direction of action of a current drive force and comparing the direction of action with the target drive direction (ZR), if the current direction of travel deviates from the target drive direction (ZR), detecting/determining unauthorised driving of the vehicle, if the direction of action deviates from the target drive direction (ZR). The invention also relates to a device and a system, in particular, for performing the method.

Abstract: A method for operating a hybrid drive for a vehicle including at least one internal combustion engine and at least one electric motor, the internal combustion engine and the electric motor being operable in a hybrid mode, which enables a temporary power boost by supplementing the internal combustion engine output with electric motor output. The temporary power boost is allowed only until reaching a limit velocity (VG), which depends on the maximum velocity (VSM, VSM?) in internal combustion engine mode, which depends on the particular driving resistance.
