  • Method transfer between fluidic devices considering deviations from ideal behavior
    Patent number: 10012624
    Abstract: An apparatus for deriving an operation mode from a first fluidic device to a second fluidic device, wherein the first fluidic device has a first target operation mode representing a desired behavior of the first fluidic device and has a first real operation mode representing the actual behavior of the first fluidic device, wherein the second fluidic device has a second target operation mode representing a desired behavior of the second fluidic device and has a second real operation mode representing the actual behavior of the second fluidic device, the apparatus comprising a first determining unit configured for determining the first real operation mode based on the first target operation mode and based on a preknown parameterization of the first fluidic device, and a second determining unit configured for determining the second target operation mode based on the determined first real operation mode and based on a preknown parameterization of the second fluidic device.

  • Configuring a physical condition at a source to obtain a desired physical condition at destination
    Patent number: 8515587
    Abstract: An apparatus for determining an operation mode of a device, wherein the device is capable of adjusting a physical condition at a source position to correspondingly influence a physical condition at a destination position, the apparatus comprising a determining unit adapted for determining the operation mode by defining a time dependency of the physical condition at the source position so that a target time-dependency of the physical condition is obtained for the destination position, the target time-dependency representing a resultant variation of the physical condition over time.
