Claim 8:
9. The method of claim 5, wherein:
the at least one respective extremum drum motor torque value comprises a respective maximum motor torque value and a respective minimum motor torque value;
determining the at least one first distribution characteristic value of the extremum torque values of the first plurality of rotations comprises determining a maximum torque distribution characteristic value of the respective maximum motor torque values, and determining a minimum torque distribution characteristic value of the respective minimum motor torque values;
comparing the at least one first distribution characteristic value of the extremum torque values of the first plurality of rotations to the respective first predetermined threshold value comprises comparing the maximum torque distribution characteristic value to a predetermined maximum torque distribution characteristic threshold value, and comparing the minimum torque distribution characteristic value to a predetermined minimum torque distribution characteristic threshold value;
determining that the at least one first distribution characteristic value of the extremum torque values of the first plurality of rotations is above the respective first predetermined threshold value comprises determining that one or both of the maximum torque distribution characteristic value is above the predetermined maximum torque distribution characteristic threshold value, and the minimum torque distribution characteristic value is above the predetermined minimum torque distribution characteristic threshold value; and
determining that the at least one first distribution characteristic value of the extremum torque values of the first plurality of rotations is below the respective first predetermined threshold value comprises determining that the maximum torque distribution characteristic value is below the predetermined maximum torque distribution characteristic threshold value, and the minimum torque distribution characteristic value is below the predetermined minimum torque distribution characteristic threshold value.
