Abstract: A hydraulic control system for a machine is disclosed. The hydraulic control system may have a work tool movable through segments of an excavation cycle, a motor configured to swing the work tool during the excavation cycle, at least one accumulator configured to selectively receive fluid discharged from the motor and to discharge fluid to the motor during the excavation cycle, and a controller. The controller may be configured to receive input regarding a current excavation cycle of the work tool, and make a determination based on the input that the current excavation cycle is associated with one of a set of known modes of operation. The controller may be further configured to cause the at least one accumulator to receive fluid and discharge fluid during different segments of the excavation cycle based on the determination.

Abstract: In an internal combustion engine, fresh air is compressed by a pressure-wave supercharger. At least one operating parameter of the pressure-wave supercharger is controlled or regulated as a function of at least one actual operating variable of the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A hydraulic system for a machine is disclosed. The hydraulic system may have a first pump with variable displacement and being load-sense controlled, and a first hydraulic circuit associated with the first pump. The hydraulic system may also have a second pump with variable displacement and being electro-hydraulically controlled, and a second hydraulic circuit associated with the second pump. The hydraulic system may further have a flow-sharing valve arrangement configured to selectively share fluid flow between the first and second hydraulic circuits.

Abstract: In an internal combustion engine, fresh air is compressed by a pressure-wave supercharger. At least one operating parameter of the pressure-wave supercharger is controlled or regulated as a function of at least one actual operating variable of the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A controller for an actuator estimates the torque required to accelerate and decelerate an actuator and calculates a trajectory to a desired position based on the estimated torque requirements. The controller then determines an appropriate step size to move the actuator in the current time interval. Each time cycle the controller recalculates the trajectory to account for changes in conditions or operator inputs. The controller determines an appropriate step size to move the actuator in the next time interval based on the new trajectory.

Abstract: A method operates control devices of a motor vehicle which communicate via at least one databus. A gateway control device which controls the transmission of data on the databus, or on each databus, and a plurality of motor vehicle control devices which control the functions of an assembly such as, for example, of an engine, of a gearbox or of an air conditioning system of the motor vehicle, are connected to the databus, or to each databus. One of the control devices, preferably the gateway control device, generates centrally a diagnostic message which is valid for the other control devices, preferably for the motor vehicle control devices, and transmits the diagnostic message to the other control devices on the databus, or on each databus. The other control devices then exclusively perform fault storage if a fault storage function is activated by the diagnostic message.

Abstract: A method of and apparatus for machining an object wherein a source of coherent radiation is pulse modulated in accordance with the desired machining and the radiation is directed to a deflecting device and deflected to the object which is moving at a controlled speed. Movement of the deflecting device is controlled to deflect the pulsed radiation on the area of the object to be machined regardless of its motion. The method is applied to engrave intaglio printing forms by using gating or pulse length modulation to reproduce accurately the large number of volume variations of the printing cells.
