  • Patent number: 12553397
    Abstract: A method for generating correcting variables for the operation of an internal combustion engine which comprises exhaust gas valves and which comprises at least one component, through which the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine flows, wherein values of the temperature occurring at the exhaust gas valves during operation of the internal combustion engine are read out from a first characteristic map. The method is characterized in that values of correcting variables are read out from a further characteristic map, which is at least partially an inverted characteristic map with respect to the first characteristic map, which are predefined such that specified maximum values of the component temperature are not exceeded for the component through which the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine flows.

  • Publication number: 20260008447
    Abstract: A method for controlling a hydraulic brake system having at least one pressure supply device for conveying brake fluid into at least one wheel brake is disclosed. A required brake fluid volume is determined for setting a target pressure in the at least one wheel brake and the pressure supply device is actuated to convey the brake fluid volume. In order to set the target pressure quickly and accurately, a ramp-down behavior of the pressure supply device is observed by determining a threshold rotating speed which, when the motor of the pressure supply device is switched off, conveys a follow-up volume corresponding to the required brake fluid volume, and the rotating speed of the pressure supply device is limited to the threshold rotating speed, or the threshold rotating speed is requested by the pressure supply device.

  • Publication number: 20250001845
    Abstract: An unfinished component for a motor vehicle body has at least one first and one second unfinished shell part, which, in a box-like structural region, delimit a cavity in which is disposed a reinforcing pipe profile which is connected to at least one of the unfinished shell parts by a connection. In order to create an unfinished component which enables simpler and more cost-effective production, respective recesses are disposed in the reinforcing pipe profile. In the profile regions adjoining the recesses, the reinforcing pipe profile is connected to the associated unfinished shell part via respective connections on two sides. A method for producing an unfinished component of this type is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11928095
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to a system to generate and cause display of a specially configured graphical user interface to receive and present collections of images. According to certain example embodiments, an image analysis system: receives an image file from a client device; generates a hash value based on the image file; performs a comparison of the hash value with a list that comprises a collection of hash values; identifies a match to the hash value among the collection of hash values; assigns a label to the image file in response to identifying the match among the collection of image files from the list; and indexes the image file at a memory location identified by the label assigned to the image file.

  • Patent number: 11698461
    Abstract: A system and method of identifying and responding to a GPS denial of service includes: configuring a mode S transponder for transmitting a GPS time-of-day message as a downlink format message using a BDS register, and configuring an aircraft surveillance system for receiving one or more GPS time-of-day messages transmitted as a downlink format message. The surveillance system compares the received time-of-day message(s) from the aircraft to a comparison time of day, and validates reception of authentic GPS signals by the aircraft when the received time-of-day message is within a threshold amount of the comparison time of day. The comparison time of day may be the GPS time of day of one of a plurality of aircraft in the surveillance volume or may be the GPS time of day determined by the aircraft surveillance system. An indicator on the transponder indicates counterfeit GPS signals, permitting mitigation od induced navigation error.

  • Patent number: 10899391
    Abstract: A motor vehicle has a bodyshell which forms a passenger cell. The bodyshell has two lateral side frames with in each case one front, lateral bodyshell pillar or A pillar. On a front side of the bodyshell, a front-end structure is formed, wherein the front-end structure has, on both sides, in each case one spring strut dome, one horizontally running support member arranged between the spring strut dome and the respective A pillar, and one support member running diagonally between the spring strut dome and a lower end of the A pillar. The two support members and the A pillar are assembled in monocoque construction from member profiles, wherein the three members form in each case one triangular load-bearing structure. The respective outwardly facing member profile of the A pillar, the respective outwardly facing member profile of the horizontally running support member and the respective outwardly facing member profile of the diagonally running support member are each unipartite profiles.
