A method for determining internal pressure in the cylinders of an internal combustion engine by measuring and analyzing structure borne noise signals using a neural network.

Method for determining relevant variables representing the pressure in the cylinders of an internal combustion engine

In a process for automatic adjustment of handling of a motor vehicle having an internal-combustion engine, operating and condition quantities are determined and compared with reference values. If the operating and condition quantities deviate from the reference values, adjusting signals are generated for adjusting vehicle and engine components. In order to recognize predetermined driving situations, and to make corresponding adjustments for influencing the vehicle handling, starting and ending of predetermined driving modes (acceleration operation, deceleration operation and constant drive operation) are detected by logically evaluating diverse operating and condition quantities. The conditions for detecting the start of a driving condition differ from the conditions for the end of the same driving condition. When one of the conditions for the start or the end of an acceleration operation, of a deceleration operation or of a constant driving operation exists, adjusting signals are generated for automatically adjusting of vehicle and engine components.

Process and system for the automated influencing of the vehicle handling of a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine

A method for controlling a heating and/or air-conditioning apparatus is provided, wherein, through an intervention unit, a user can perform interventions which lead to different settings of the heating and/or air-conditioning apparatus. Various parameters are read into a control unit and are processed. According to the method, climatic situations are defined by the parameters; upon a user intervention a particular climate situation is detected; the climatic situation is associated with the particular user intervention; and in a prevailing climatic situation the settings of the climate control system pertaining to the associated user intervention are carried out.
