Bei einem Steuerverfahren für ein Automatikgetriebe wird erst festgestellt, ob sich das Automatikgetriebe in einem vierten Gang befindet, und das Fahrzeug in einem Leistung-Aus-Zustand betrieben wird, dann wird ein Dämpferkupplungsbetriebs-Schlupfsteuersignal ausgegeben, falls sich das Fahrzeug in einem Leistung-Aus-Zustand befindet. Als nächstes wird ein Motorkraftstoffanschalt-U/min-Reduktionssi...

The method involves identifying a physiological cycle of the patient (28), which has a number of phases and selecting at least one phase. At least one segment of projection data is detected for each selected phase of the object during each rotation of each X-ray source (16). A projection dataset is generated by combining each data segment. A cross-section image is generated of the whole patient. ...

The method involves using a segmentation logarithm with projection data to generate basic image data, which comprise a number of segments. Image data are generated for each segment. Sequence image data are generated based on the image data of each segment. Image data, segments, sequence images or basic images are communicated to a remote unit over a network for remote operation.; Es ist ein Verfah...
