A drive control system for a front- and rear-wheel drive vehicle is provided. The drive control system is installed on the front- and rear-wheel drive vehicle, which is a two-wheeler equipped with a front wheel and a rear wheel both serving as driving wheels, one of which is a steered wheel. When the vehicle is banking, the drive control system performs control of decreasing target driving torque of the steered wheel according to an amount of accelerator operation during acceleration operation of a driver compared to when the vehicle is running upright.

A method and system is disclosed to operate a vehicle pulling a trailer through a cornering maneuver is disclosed. An outer, concave edge and an inner, convex edge of a negotiable road are identified. A path of travel is determined for an inner wheel of the trailer of the vehicle. A first directrix is determined on which a guide point of the vehicle must move in order to pull the inner wheel along the determined path of travel. A second directrix is determined, on which a outer, front wheel of the vehicle must move in order to pull the guide point along the first directrix. A concave-side distance between the outer, front wheel and the concave edge is estimated. When the difference between the distance on concave-side and convex-side exceeds a threshold value, the convex-side distance is adjusted to be closer to the concave-side distance.

A vehicle control device is provided, which includes an engine, an engine control mechanism configured to control torque generated by the engine, and a processor configured to execute a vehicle attitude controlling module to perform a vehicle attitude control in which the engine control mechanism is controlled to reduce the torque so as to decelerate the vehicle, when a condition that the vehicle is traveling and a steering angle related value that is related to a steering angle of a steering device increases is satisfied, and a preventing module to prevent a combustion frequency of the engine per unit time from falling below a given value while the vehicle attitude controlling module executes the vehicle attitude control.

A vehicle control device is provided, which includes an engine, an engine control mechanism configured to control torque generated by the engine, a steering device, and a processor. The processor determines whether a vehicle is traveling and a steering angle related value that is related to a steering angle of the steering device increases, executes a control of the engine control mechanism to reduce the torque when the vehicle is determined to be traveling and the steering angle related value is determined to increase, determines whether a combustion frequency of the engine per unit time is lower than a given value, executes the control for reducing the torque when the combustion frequency is determined to be higher than the given value, and prevents the execution of the control for reducing the torque when the combustion frequency is determined to be lower than the given value.

A method for controlling an automatic transmission of a vehicle includes detecting a deceleration of the vehicle; detecting a cornering value of the vehicle; determining, as a function of the deceleration and as a function of the cornering value, a compensated shift-down point of a rotational speed at which shifting into a relatively low gear of the transmission occurs; and selecting a gear as a function of the compensated shift-down point.

A drive control system for a front- and rear-wheel drive vehicle is provided. The drive control system is installed on the front- and rear-wheel drive vehicle, which is a two-wheeler equipped with a front wheel and a rear wheel both serving as driving wheels, one of which is a steered wheel. When the vehicle is banking, the drive control system performs control of decreasing target driving torque of the steered wheel according to an amount of accelerator operation during acceleration operation of a driver compared to when the vehicle is running upright.

A control device for a mobile medical device, comprises a controller and a selection unit. The controller is configured to control and/or regulate a drive unit of the mobile medical device. The mobile medical device includes an operator control device for actuation by a user. The control device is provided with actuation data of the operator control device. The controller has at least two different controller settings, wherein the selection unit is configured to select, set and/or use the controller setting based on the actuation data.
