摘要:
A method for determining a rack force for a steering apparatus of a vehicle, in which the rack force is determined as a function of a steering angle variable which characterizes an actual wheel steering angle or a set point of the wheel steering angle. In order to specify a method for determining a rack force, with which a target steering torque can be generated such that a comfortable steering feel is imparted to the driver and the steering apparatus nevertheless gives the driver feedback that is as realistic as possible regarding the motion state of the vehicle, the method comprises: determining a variable which characterizes a lateral force on a shaft of the steering apparatus, and determining the rack force as a function of the lateral force, wherein the determination of the rack force comprises a filtering by means of a signal processing element having a proportional-differential transfer function.

A washer fluid pump (2) for a window cleaning system includes two ventilation openings (13, 14) arranged in a housing (5) and linked with a single opening (15) arranged on the inside. A ventilation duct (18) has two sections (16, 17) arranged tangentially to the housing (5). The ventilation openings (13, 14) are separated from each other by a partition (19). This design makes it possible for the housing (5) to have a large ventilation cross section and avoids splashed water penetrating the housing (5).

In metallization systems of complex semiconductor devices, an intermediate interface layer may be incorporated into the interconnect structures in order to provide superior electromigration performance. To this end, the deposition of the actual fill material may be interrupted at an appropriate stage and the interface layer may be formed, for instance, by deposition, surface treatment and the like, followed by the further deposition of the actual fill metal. In this manner, the grain size issue, in particular at lower portions of the scaled inter-connect features, may be addressed.

Provided is a way of using an estimator to determine a force (Fz), which acts from the outside on a steering gear of a steering device in a vehicle by way of a steering linkage, wherein a motor for generating a steering torque is assigned to the steering device. This is achieved by estimating the force (Fz) acting from the outside as a function of an effective motor torque (tor_RAeff), wherein the effective motor torque (tor_RAeff) is determined as a function of a motor torque and an efficiency, the efficiency being determined as a function of the estimated force (Fz).

By forming metal capacitors in the metallization structures of semiconductor devices, complex manufacturing sequences in the device level may be avoided. The process of manufacturing the metal capacitors may be performed on the basis of well-established patterning regimes of modern metallization systems by using appropriately selected etch stop materials, which may enable a high degree of compatibility for forming via openings in a metallization layer while providing a capacitor dielectric of a desired high dielectric constant in the capacitor.

摘要:
The present disclosure facilitates the interoperability between different local applications. Related local data objects are referenced via global objects or reference containers within a global data model or a global address space of an integration solution. The present disclosure assumes that the integration solution is per default in a consistent state, e.g., an engineered or initially configured global address space is regarded as consistent, and all software components that operate within this space assume that the information they access is valid and likewise consistent. The local applications are the only components that can interact with the global address space and introduce invalidations, they are continuously monitored for changes. Invalidation and subsequent synchronization or restoration of consistency is performed upon a particular triggering event related to a change in a local application object (such as an insertion or removal of an object or a modification of an attribute thereof) or related to a changing application or adapter status (component shutdown/startup).
摘要:
When forming a complex metallization system in which vias of different lateral size have to be provided, a split patterning sequence may be applied. For this purpose, a lithography process may be specifically designed for the critical via openings and a subsequent second patterning process may be applied for forming the vias of increased lateral dimensions, while the critical vias are masked. In this manner, superior process conditions may be established for each of the patterning sequences.
