Thanks

The validation of the Steam system is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) within the program Validation of the Innovation Potential of Scientific Research (VIP). The authors thank the BMBF for funding. Finally, thanks goes to Volvo Construction Equipment, especially to Ulrich Faß and Heiko Steinbach, for not only providing the test excavator but also for their valuable input and support throughout the project.
