Abstract: The present invention is concerned with the estimation of health parameters p(k) representing symptoms of a slowly degrading system, in particular industrial gas turbines. According to the invention, an estimation of a true health or independent parameter vector at time step k uses the estimation of the true health or parameter vector at a previous time step k-1 as a starting value for the production of a predicted health parameter vector at time step k. Based on the latter and a set of measured values of input variables of an extended model of the system, a prediction of output variables of the model is produced. This predicted model output is compared with measured values of the output variables to yield an error. From this error, a health parameter estimator in turn produces a health parameter estimate as a revision of the predicted health parameters. Preferably, the estimation of a true health or independent parameter vector at time step k includes a generalised process noise representing stochastic uncertainty and/or a-priori knowledge of an evolution of the health parameters.

Abstract: A training device for training the pelvic floor muscles of a human, which can be externally placed on the human body and can be connected to feedback units that produce feedback signals, such as vibrations. The training device is, at least on one side, aligned with the pelvic floor, can be compressed and can be axially deformed on its sensor side. A pressure force sensor unit of the training device can be positioned during the operation in such a manner that the ischial tuberosities of the pelvic floor can be situated on both sides on the pressure sensor unit, and a gravitational force component passing through the pelvic floor acts upon the pelvic floor training device, making a precise measurement of the exertion on the pelvic floor possible.

The medium is prepared and medium components in water are dissolved. The medium is sterilized and heated to 115° C. for 20 minutes, cooled to 30° C., inoculated with a suspension of bacteriae, and distributed in the trays that are left to rest. The sheets are harvested and drained over the corresponding trays. Further steps include repetition of the fermentation in the trays left to rest and harvest of the sheets from the trays, draining them over the corresponding trays until the volume of medium in the tray is 15%-25% of the initial volume. Then, a new medium should be added. Fermentation and draining is repeated until the volume of medium in the tray is 15%-25% of the initial volume, when new medium is added and the cycle is re-started.
