A method for testing a component part of an aircraft comprises the steps of determining at least one first test value of the component part of the aircraft and/or at least one first test value of a comparable component part of a further aircraft for at least one test parameter, inputting the first test parameter and the first test value into a pattern recognition system, which produces an inner correlation between the first test parameter and the first test value. The method further comprises the steps of defining at least one second test parameter, inputting the second test parameter into the pattern recognition system in order to determine a second test value by means of the inner correlation, checking whether the second test value falls within the predefined value range, and determining a third test value of the component part of the aircraft for the second test parameter if the second test value falls within the predefined value range. The invention further relates to a device for testing a component part of an aircraft.

Aspects of the disclosure describe a wheeled vehicle having a structure attached thereto and configured to acquire within the interior of the structure a vehicle to be inspected. The structure is configured to receive the vehicle within its interior. In example implementations, the structure is located relative to the wheeled vehicle such that the vehicle to be inspected is loaded into and received within the structure during travel of the wheeled vehicle past the vehicle to be inspected. Having loaded the vehicle into the structure, the vehicle may be inspected. Once inspection is complete, the vehicle may be unloaded from the structure. In example implementations, the structure is located relative to the wheeled vehicle such that the inspected vehicle is unloaded from the structure during travel of the wheeled vehicle past the inspected vehicle. The wheeled vehicle may transport the structure to the site of another vehicle to be inspected.

A process, system, and component configuration are described that discourages customer acceptance/use of will-fit, reconditioned, and counterfeit product components, by determining whether or not a serviceable product component is genuine. If a component is determined to not be genuine, then appropriate action may be taken to warn operators and document such findings. For example, one or more markers are disposed or otherwise put on the subject serviceable product component and serves as a targeted feature, and/or a particular characteristic of the filter itself is identified as the targeted feature. A sensor is used to detect the targeted feature and obtain information unique to the serviceable product component. The targeted feature(s) identifies the particular serviceable component as genuine and forms the basis for determining whether a genuine component has been installed. In some circumstances, a fluid filter product is the component that is the subject detection.

Provided is a method of processing and analyzing vehicle driving big data, the method including: refining vehicle driving data of raw data; acquiring statistical data based on the refined vehicle driving data; and performing mining analysis based on at least one of the refined vehicle driving data and the acquired statistical data.

A tire testing apparatus includes: a lower rim that is formed with a lower through hole, and a rim-side inclined surface that increases in diameter in a downward direction of an inner peripheral surface of a lower end portion of the lower through hole; an upper rim that is held to face the lower rim; an insertion part capable of being inserted through the lower through hole; and an apparatus-side inclined surface that is provided at a lower end portion of the insertion part, increases in diameter from an outer peripheral surface of the insertion part in the downward direction, and is capable of coming into contact with the rim-side inclined surface.

A method for diagnosing an exhaust-gas catalytic converter (28) arranged in an exhaust-gas system (20) of an internal combustion engine (12) for the catalytic conversion of at least one exhaust-gas component from the internal combustion engine (12), which has an exhaust-gas recirculation means with which a partial stream of the exhaust gas can be drawn off downstream of the catalytic converter (14) and fed into the combustion air of the internal combustion engine (12), involves determining the current raw emission (NO.sub.xraw) of the internal combustion engine (12) in of the exhaust-gas component; measuring the current concentration of the exhaust-gas component (NO.sub.xmeas) in the exhaust gas upstream of the catalytic converter (28); and determining a diagnostic value for the catalytic converter (28) in terms of the conversion of the exhaust-gas component as a function of the modelled raw emission (NO.sub.xraw) from the internal combustion engine (12) and the measured concentration of the exhaust-gas component (NO.sub.xmeas). The invention further relates to a diagnostic device configured to perform the method and a motor vehicle having such a device.

A device, vehicle, method and computer program for deactivating high-voltage components of a vehicle. The device for deactivating high-voltage components of a vehicle carries out an error analysis of the high-voltage components after detecting a vibration and deactivates the high-voltage components if an error in the high-voltage components results in the error analysis.
