  • Patent number: 11998309
    Abstract: A method for operating a magnetic resonance facility in which a measurement gradient pulse is used to record magnetic resonance signals for sampling k-space along a trajectory section. The recorded magnetic resonance signals are assigned to k-space points using a shape function describing the time profile of the measurement gradient pulse. To correct deviations of the real time profile of the measurement gradient pulse from an assumed target profile, a first correction measurement is performed to ascertain first magnetic resonance signals of the trajectory section. A second correction measurement is then performed using a reference sampling pattern or a reference gradient pulse with fewer deviations from an assigned reference target profile. If a deviation criterion is met, a correction function for the shape function is ascertained by aligning the first and second magnetic resonance signals to one another, providing correction information to be used in an imaging measurement.

  • Patent number: 11913506
    Abstract: A vehicle transmission includes a hydraulic circuit and a control unit. The control unit is configured to: obtain (20) a target pressure specification; convert (26) the target pressure specification into a target volume flow rate; determine (42) a valve volume flow rate as a function of the target volume flow rate and as a function of parameters that represent system properties of the hydraulic circuit; determine (46) a pressure drop at a valve due to flow forces as a function of the valve volume flow rate; determine (48) a compensated valve output pressure as a function of the valve volume flow rate and the pressure drop; determine (58) the electric control current as a function of the compensated valve output pressure; and activate a valve with the electric control current.

  • Patent number: 9828988
    Abstract: A damper for a high-pressure pump includes a housing and a cover that can be coupled to the housing to form a damping space. The cover has an elevation including a plurality of concave regions and a plurality of convex regions, wherein the concave and convex regions are arranged about a central region of the elevation. Each of the concave regions is arranged between two of the convex regions in order to scatter sound.
