Abstract: A method for controlling a partially unsynchronized manual transmission, which realizes the increase of a rotational speed of a transmission part to be synchronized during a gear change procedure by connecting one element of the transmission, via a shiftable clutch, to a drive motor and by making available to this drive motor the required rotational speed as well as the necessary torque at its output shaft. It is also provided that when the rotational speed and/or the torque made available by the drive motor is not sufficient to ensure the synchronization of the manual transmission within a fixed time period, a shifting strategy is pursued, which prevents an unintentional holding of the manual transmission in its neutral position or idle position.

Abstract: An audio system generates position-independent auditory scenes using harmonic expansions based on me audio signals generated by a microphone array. In one embodiment, a plurality of audio sensors are mounted on the surface of a sphere. The number and location of the audio sensors on the sphere are designed to enable the audio signals generated by those sensors to be decomposed into a set of eigenbeam outputs. Compensation data corresponding to at least one of the estimated distance and the estimated orientation of the sound source relative to the array are generated from eigenbeam outputs and used to generate an auditory scene. Compensation based on estimated orientation involves steering a beam formed from the eigenbeam outputs in the estimated direction of the sound source to increase direction independence, while compensation based on estimated distance involves frequency compensation of the steered beam to increase distance independence.

Abstract: A thrust bearing assembly includes an upper thrust bearing and a lower thrust bearing for use in an engine assembly of a vehicle and which, are preferably, identically configured. The upper and lower thrust bearings each include an arcuate bearing shell with a concave inner surface and a convex outer surface and each may be formed with a pair of axially spaced flanges extending radially outwardly of the bearing shells. The flanges may be formed as one piece with the bearing shell and the thickness of one of the flanges is greater than that of the other of the flanges. The thicker flanges are load bearing and preferably contoured, whereas the thinner flanges are not. The bearings are installed with the thick flange of each bearing matched radially opposite the thin flange of the companion bearing to minimize fatigue and failure normally attributed to repeated seating and unseating of the bearing assemblies having flanges of equal thickness caused by changing bending loads imparted by a shaft.
