Abrégé

The purpose of the invention is to provide a system for automatically calculating drug infusion applicable to a patient, in order to, for example, induce a satisfactory anaesthetic state during surgery. The automatic calculation system would be determined by target values of physiological monitors to evaluate the patient's condition. Automatic infusion increases patient safety, reducing post-surgical morbidity and mortality, and reduces continuous decision-making by the specialist. The invention relates to an electronic system that implements a MIMO-PID controller that calculates the infusion of various drugs on the basis of a control error defined by deviations in the patient's condition, which is analysed by several monitors. The automatic drug infusions are determined by safety systems for preventing under-/overinfusion events and are complemented with correction and feedback systems.

The present invention relates to a method and system for detecting, manipulating and isolating circulating tumour cells found in organic liquids by a simplified laser-assisted transfer process. A liquid sample of the organic liquid that contains an enriched population of tumour cells and a population of non-tumour cells is extended in a donor substrate with an intermediate layer that comprises a semi-transparent polymeric adhesive tape. Fluorescent staining of at least one of the cell populations found in the liquid sample is required in order to identify by optical microscopy and fluorescence the location of the cells to be manipulated and/or isolated. The energy from the laser beam is absorbed by the polymeric adhesive tape, which results in the formation of a blister that interacts mechanically with the liquid sample and said interaction can induce the ejection of a portion of the liquid sample that comprises the selected tumour cells or non-tumour cells, which can be a single cell or a group of cells, towards the receiving substrate.

The system performs communication between two systems, a master system, that creates an alternating magnetic field by means of which it dialogues with one or more slave systems, which respond at frequencies other than those generated by the master by a non-linear magnetic core generating harmonics of higher order than those of the magnetic field created by the master. The generation of harmonics is controlled by the slave by a short-circuit coil which enables the data transmission from the slave to the master. The slave system can have its own power supply or it can be powered by the short-circuit coil. This allows microcontrollers in the slaves to be powered and give them intelligence and a large storage capacity, making them ideal for control security and monitoring processes. The excitation frequency can be varied because the functionality of the slaves does not depend on the frequency of the exciter field.

A method of molecular self-assembly is disclosed using two interacting streams that are allowed to interact and are subsequently forced through an orifice. A first stream of a dope solution of polymer molecules is extruded out of a capillary. The dope stream is surrounded by a focusing fluid which is miscible with the dope solution. The interaction between the jet of dope solution and surrounding focusing fluid creates hydrodynamic stretching and allows for extracting solvent from the dope solution. Concentrated polymers within the solution at stretched regions of the jet interact, and finally self-assembly takes place after the fluids are forced through the outlet of a converging nozzle. The formation of the structure can be optionally completed in a coagulating space. The structures thus obtained such as fibers or threads can be wound onto a mandrel.

The invention relates to a method for measuring the forces generated in the contact between a tyre and the road from deformations measured by deformation sensors distributed on two circumferences concentric with respect to the centre of the wheel. Within each circumference, at least four points, named measuring points, are selected, all being spaced at equidistant angles. One signal per measuring point should be obtained, either from a sensor placed directly at said point or as a result of the sum of the deformations measured by two sensors situated at points symmetrical with respect to the plane containing the axis of the wheel and with respect to the straight line joining the centre of the wheel to the measuring point. The forces and moments generated in the tyre-road contact are obtained by means of the linear combination of the deformation signals at the measuring points of the wheel rim.

A method of molecular self-assembly is disclosed using two interacting streams that are allowed to interact and are subsequently forced through an orifice. A first stream of a dope solution of polymer molecules is extruded out of a capillary. The dope stream is surrounded by a focusing fluid which is miscible with the dope solution. The interaction between the jet of dope solution and surrounding focusing fluid creates hydrodynamic stretching and allows for extracting solvent from the dope solution. Concentrated polymers within the solution at stretched regions of the jet interact,and finally self-assembly takes place after the fluids are forced through the outlet of a converging nozzle. The formation of the structure can be optionally completed in a coagulating space. The structures thus obtained such as fibers or threads can be wound onto a mandrel.

The invention relates to a plasma accelerator that produces and controls a plasma stream exhaust, in particular for space propulsion. The ions are produced inside the discharge chamber by working gas collisional ionization by electrons from a single electron source placed outside, also employed for ion beam neutralization. The ion motion is directed outwards through the exit side by the electric field between a cathode grid and the walls of the plasma chamber. The acceleration voltage imparts energy to the ion flux and an electrically biased control grid modulates the ion outflow from the discharge chamber and the electron inflow from the electron source. This allows electrical control of throttle and/or modulation of thrust delivered along the longitudinal direction of the thruster axis. Several plasma accelerators could be clustered together to provide controlled non-axial thrust using the individual control of throttle.
