Abstract: There is described a method for generating a 2-D image of a 3-D object represented by a volume data set comprising a multiplicity of data points each having an opacity value. A plurality of notional rays are cast through the 3-D object and for each ray, a ray path is divided into a plurality of base sampling intervals defined by data points on the path. If it is determined that a difference in opacity values across a base sampling interval can become greater than a pre-determined value, successively smaller sampling regions are generated within the base sampling interval until it is determined that a difference in opacity values across each generated smaller sampling interval in the base interval is less than the pre-determined threshold. Values indicative of an interaction between the ray and the 3-D object in the sampling intervals along the path are accumulated using a direct volume rendering procedure to determine a pixel value in the 2-D image.

Abstract: A method for determining a motor vehicle mass which is implemented in conjunction with shifting an automated shift transmission from a current gear to a desired gear. In determining the mass, a value force and movement parameters are determined partly before or after the shift operation and partly during it. For the more rapid and accurate determination of mass, the drive-wheel-related traction force of the drive engine before and after the shift F_zug_vor, F_zug_nach, the longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle before and after the shift, a_zug_vor, a_zug_nach, and the acceleration a_roll determined in the traction-force-free phase during the shift are determined, and from these and in accordance with the equation m=F_zug/(a_zug−a_roll), a first mass value m_vor=F_zug_vor/(a_zug_vor−a_roll) is calculated for the beginning of the shift and a second mass value m_nach=F_zug_nach/(a_zug_nach−a_roll) is calculated for the end of the shift.
