Battery System and Associated Method for Determining the Internal Resistance of Battery Cells or Battery Modules of Said Battery System

A method for determining the internal resistance of battery cells of battery modules of a battery includes measuring a first voltage of at least one battery cell of a first battery module at a first time. The first battery module is decoupled from the battery module string in response to a control signal. The first battery module is connected to the battery module string after the first voltage measurement to enable a change in the first voltage of the at least one battery cell in response to a current flowing through the first battery module. A second voltage is measured at a second time where the first battery module is connected to the battery module string for a predefined time interval. The internal resistance is determined with reference to a difference between the first and the second voltage and the current flowing through the first battery module.

Determination of a center feeling for eps sterring systems

In order to transmit reliable and precise information, to as great an extent as possible, on current driving conditions and driving situations, and also achieve disturbance-free behavior of the steering system in the center point range, in a steering device in a vehicle, a target steering torque (torSSW) is determined by determining an actual toothed rack force (forRT), determining at least one first component for the target steering torque (torSSW) as a function of the actual toothed rack force (forRT), and determining at least one additional component for the target steering torque (torSSW) from a calculated toothed rack force (forRS), wherein the calculated toothed rack force (forRS) is determined from a wheel steering angle and a vehicle speed (velV).

A position of gravity of center of a load loaded to an industrial load is estimated. The robot has a robot arm driven horizontally. The robot arm includes first to fourth axis. Acceleration generated at the second axis during accelerated and decelerated intervals of each of three operation periods. In each operation period, the second axis is driven to move the robot arm from one initial position to one first estimating position and returns it from the estimating position to the initial position. During each operation period, the load is given a known mass, the fourth axis is positioned at a preset angle, and the first, third and fourth axes are the same in positions between the initial and estimating positions. The fourth-axis position is changed to different angles for every operation period. Based on calculated acceleration and known factors of the robot and load, the position is estimated.
