Publication number: 20210094701Abstract: A method for transmitting data between an electric aircraft and a ground station by a data carrier unit, which involves data to be conveyed from the aircraft being stored in the data carrier unit, a connection being made between the data carrier unit and a computing unit of the ground station, and the data to be conveyed being transmitted via the connection. A fundamental aspect is that the data carrier unit is integrated in a battery system of the aircraft and the connection for transmitting the data is made to the computing unit of the ground station when the battery system is replaced. The invention also relates to a data carrier unit, a battery system and an aircraft.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2020Publication date: April 1, 2021Applicant: Volocopter GmbHInventor: Christopher WINKLER

Patent number: 10339709Abstract: A system and method may model physical geological structures. Seismic and geologic data may be accepted. A three-dimensional (3D) transformation may be generated between a 3D present day model having points representing present locations of the physical geological structures and a 3D past depositional model having points representing locations where the physical geological structures were originally deposited. An indication may be accepted to locally change the 3D transformation for a subset of sampling points in a first model of the models. The 3D transformation may be locally changed to fit the updated subset of sampling points. A locally altered or updated version of the first model and, e.g., second model, may be displayed where local changes to the first model are defined by the locally changed 3D transformation. The transformation may also be used to extract geobodies in the past depositional model.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2018Date of Patent: July 2, 2019Assignees: Emerson Paradigm Holding LLC, Jean-Laurent MALLETInventors: Jean-Laurent Mallet, Jean-Claude Dulac, Emmanuel Labrunye, Christophe Winkler, Laurent Deny
