Abstract: An input information analysis unit that analyzes input information of a user regarding a system model, a model candidate specifying unit that specifies a system model to be generated from system model information in which a plurality of types of templates of the system models is registered, based on an analysis result of the input information, an information extraction unit that extracts necessary information used to generate the system model from a database that stores information regarding design, based on the analysis result of the input information, and a system model generation unit that generates a system model according to the input information, using the extracted necessary information and the template of the system model to be generated are included.

Abstract: A design support apparatus includes: an input unit configured to acquire design information related to a target product; an extraction unit configured to extract, based on a classification axis that is a rule for classifying a phrase or a numerical value related to a component, a function, or a requirement specification in the target product and that is stored in a classification axis storage unit, the phrase or the numerical value related to the component, the function, or the requirement specification from the design information; a recognition unit configured to recognize a relationship between the extracted phrases or between the extracted numerical values related to the component, the function, or the requirement specification based on a content structure of the design information and a co-occurrence; an association unit configured to associate the relationship between the phrases or between the numerical values; and an output unit.

Abstract: A method for estimating an admission pressure prevailing between a main brake cylinder and an intake valve of a wheel brake cylinder of a motor vehicle brake system, with the admission pressure being estimated, taking into account a run-on voltage of a clocked-mode motor of a pump for recirculating brake fluid from an accumulator, located at the output end of the wheel brake cylinder, to the main brake cylinder of the brake system, and also taking into account an accumulator pressure determined in the accumulator.
