Abstract: A computer-implemented method for modelling an object subjected to boundary conditions from an object model that defines a component by a three-dimensional boundary representing format is provided. The method includes providing boundary conditions including loads and/or constraints to the object, and providing the object model. The boundary representation of the object model is tessellated, obtaining an object tessellation. An approximate convex decomposition is applied to the object tessellation, obtaining three-dimensional cells respectively defined from each other by splitting planes. A numerical model is generated by applying a discontinuous Galerkin method to the three-dimensional cells. Determination of a load capacity, an improvement of the design, or the generation, in each case, of the component, are provided.

Abstract: A method and system for computer-implemented simulation of radar raw data, where the radar raw data are generated for a synthetic MIMO radar system including a transmitter array of several transmitters for transmitting radar signals and a receiver array of several receivers for receiving radar echoes of the radar signals. In this method, ray tracing of a radar signal sent from a preset transmitting position within the transmitter array and received at a preset receiving position within the receiver array is performed based on a 3D model of a virtual area adjacent to the MIMO radar system, where the ray tracing determines propagations of a plurality of rays within the radar signal from the preset transmitting position to the preset receiving position. The propagation of each ray is dependent on a first angle and a second angle describing the direction of a respective ray at the preset transmitting position.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method comprising selecting a grow protocol, selecting an identifier of a container (45), associating the grow protocol with the container identifier, and determining an adjusted target value by applying an adjustment to a target value specified in the growth protocol. The method further comprises controlling an environmental control system (11-13, 27) based on the adjusted target value, obtaining measurement information associated with the container identifier from a device (23), determining a measured plant growth parameter value based on the measurement information, and comparing the measured plant growth parameter value with an expected plant growth parameter value. The method also comprises determining a merit related to a difference between the values and replacing the target value with the adjusted target value and the expected plant growth parameter value with the measured plant growth parameter value in dependence on the merit exceeding a threshold.

Abstract: A sleep position trainer (1) has a normal operational mode for alerting when a posture of the body detected by the position sensor (34) corresponds with an undesired body posture. The sleep position trainer further comprises a non-movement timer (t1) for timing a non-movement period of the user wearing the sleep position trainer. An output signal is send to an alert unit in case that a posture of the body detected by a position sensor (34) corresponds with a body posture when a threshold value of the non-movement timer (t1) of at least 15 minutes is exceeded.

Abstract: Sleep trainer (1) comprising a band (2) with two electrodes (21), (22) for carrying out an impedance measurement and a monitor (3) for receiving a measurement signal. The band has a band pocket (23). An electrical connection is obtained by inserting the monitor (3) into the band pocket (23). Band contact points ((210),220) are provided inside the band pocket (23). Monitor contact points (31), (32) are provided at an external surface of the monitor housing (30). The monitor contact points are flat and hardly protrude above the monitor housing. The band pocket (23) prevents a lateral movement of the monitor and a band pocket wall (231) exerts a pressing force to keep the monitor contact points (31), (32) in an abutting engagement with the band contact points (210), (220). Advantageously, the sleep trainer provides a high level of wearing comfort which contributes to a sleep disorder treatment compliance.
