Abstract: A control system for an automatic transmission of a vehicle is disclosed. The automatic transmission operates in a manual operating mode in which a shift position of the automatic transmission can be changed according to a shift instruction issued by a driver of the vehicle, or in an automatic operating mode in which the shift position is automatically selected. In the control system, a slow running intention of the driver is detected. A first shift position is set to a starting shift position at the time of starting the vehicle when the slow running intention of the driver is not detected in the manual operating mode. A second shift position which is lower in transmission gear ratio than the first shift position is set to the starting shift position when the slow running intention of the driver is detected in the manual operating mode.

Abstract: Described herein is a multi-phase transverse flux machine, which comprises a stator with essentially U-shaped and I-shaped cores (1, 2) of a soft-magnetic material and respectively one stator winding (3) for each phase that generates a magnetic flux in these cores, as well as a rotor with circular magnetic return path (4). The phases of the stator are magnetically separated. The rotor contains electrically conductive material (5, 6) in each of the phases, wherein the electrically conductive material of at least two phases is arranged and is interconnected in the rotor, such that if an alternating current flows through the stator windings of these phases, a current generating a starting torque for the rotor is induced in the electrically conductive material. The at least two phases thus electrically form a rotating magnetic field machine in the rotor. The rotating magnetic field can be generated in that the stator windings of the at least two phases are admitted with currents that are phase-displaced relative to each other. However, it is also possible for the electrically connected rotor poles of the at least two phases and/or the stator poles assigned to these phases to be geometrically displaced relative to each other. The transverse flux machine thus exhibits the operational behavior of an asynchronous machine, so that it can be operated without permanent magnets.
