Abstract: A lithium secondary battery capable of improving high
temperature cycle life characteristic effectively without
decreasing discharge capacity. Amorphous carbon powder with
a specific surface area of 10.0m 2 /g and a mean particle diameter
of 7.0µm is used as negative electrode active material and
lithium manganate with a Li/Mn ratio of 0.58 is used as positive
electrode active material. Since a surface area of the negative
electrode active material layer is made large by setting the
mean particle diameter of the amorphous carbon powder to 10µm
or less, the surface area of the negative electrode active
material layer is sufficiently large that, even when inert
coating is formed on the surface of the negative electrode due
to manganese deposition caused by manganese elution from the
positive electrode, high temperature cycle life characteristic
can be improved without high temperature deterioration.

Abstract: In a method and devices for assessing the stability of an electric power
network, for each of a plurality of measurement locations with associated
voltage and current measurements, a normalized power margin value dSn is
computed, which is defined as a result of dividing an associated power
margin value by an associated maximum allowable power flow. In a preferred
embodiment of the invention, the normalised power margin value dSn is
computed from an apparent load impedance Za and a Thévenin impedance
Zt, that are perceived from the measurement location, as
 dSn =    Za-Zt Za+Zt     .   
     Normalised power margin values from several measurement locations in the
network therefore show power margins relative to a local maximum capacity,
which makes them comparable to one another.

Abstract: An apparatus, such as a mobile phone for example, is electronically switched on in the following manner. A power-on circuit (POC) initially provides a power-on signal (POS). A power supply (PWS) derives a power supply voltage (VCC) from an electrical power source (EPS) in response to the power-on signal (POS). A feedback path (FBP) upholds the power-on signal (POS) on the basis of the power supply voltage (VCC). There is a risk that the apparatus is switched off unintentionally when the electrical power source (EPS), a battery for example, is temporarily disconnected from the power supply (PWS) for a relatively short time, for example due to a shock or a vibration. In order to reduce this risk, the feedback path (FPB) comprises a hold circuit (HOLD) for upholding the power-on signal (POS) for at least a period of time (Thold) following a drop (DRP) in the power supply voltage (VCC).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for pressure modulating brake pressures. An electrical hydraulic pump is arranged in a two-circuit brake pressure transmitter. The inventive method comprises the steps: introducing a brake pressure into one and/or the other wheel brake circuit of one brake pressure transmitting circuit, maintaining the brake pressure in the one and/or the other wheel brake circuit of the one brake pressure transmitting circuit and reducing the brake pressure in the one and/or the other wheel brake circuit of the one brake pressure transmitting circuit.

The wheel brake circuits (26, 27) of the one brake pressure transmitting circuit are divided into an upstream and a downstream wheel brake circuit with different brake pressure requirements. The upstream wheel brake circuit (26 or 27) is configured as a wheel brake circuit with an increased brake pressure requirement. The steps introducing, maintaining and reducing the brake pressure of the downstream wheel brake circuit are controlled via the upstream wheel brake circuit.
