Abstract: In the present method and apparatus for processing a vibro-acoustic signal (1) emitted by a high-voltage switching system, the vibro-acoustic signal (1) is converted into a digital signal (3). The digital signal (3) is rectified and the resulting rectified signal (5) is applied to a convolutional filter with a spectral window (6) to produce a smoothed signal (7). The smoothed signal (7) is decimated to produce a decimated signal (9) representing an envelope of the vibro-acoustic signal (1). A time realignment of the decimated signal (9) is carried out with respect to a reference signature (13A) to produce a realigned signal (11). Time deviation values generate an alarm if they exceed a limit threshold. The realigned signal (11) is added as a factor of means providing a reference signature (13A) and an actualized signature (13B). Variances (15A, 15B) of the realigned signal (11) are calculated with respect to the reference and actualized signatures (13A, 13B). The realigned signal (11) is compared with the actualized and reference signatures (13A, 13B) to detect a gradual behavior change or a sudden defect, taking the variances (15A, 15B) into consideration.

Abstract: Provided are scratch-resistant blow moldings of crystalline resin having good surface gloss and high surface hardness, and an efficient method for producing them. A crystalline resin melt parison is blown in a blow mold into a blow-molded article. In the method, the temperature of the inner wall of the mold is so controlled that it falls between a temperature lower by 20 DEG C than the crystallization temperature of the crystalline resin and a temperature below the temperature lower by 5 DEG C than the melting point of the crystalline resin, while the parison is prepared in the mold; then, after the mold has been clamped to pinch the parison therein, a pressure fluid is introduced into the thus-pinched parison; then the mold with the parison therein is so heated that the temperature of its inner wall falls between a temperature lower by 10 DEG C than the melting point of the crystalline resin and a temperature below the melting point of the crystalline resin; the parison is kept in the mold at the controlled temperature for a satisfactory period of time enough for the thus blow-molded article of the parison to have a surface hardness of not lower than the level of HB in terms of the pencil hardness measured in a pencil scratch test; and finally the mold is cooled and the blow-molded article is released from the mold. The blow moldings of crystalline resin produced in the method have a surface gloss of at least 80 %, and their surface scratch resistance in terms of the pencil hardness measured in a pencil scratch test is at least on the level of HB.

Abstract: A MEMs scanning device has a variable resonant frequency. In one embodiment, the MEMs device includes a flexible arm (3506) that extends from an oscillatory body. An electrical field applies a force to the flexible arm, thereby bending the flexible arm to change the moment of inertial of the oscillatory body and a secondary mass carried by the flexible arm. The shifted combined center of mass changes the resonant frequency of MEMs device. In another embodiment, an absorptive material forms a portion of a torsional arm that supports the oscillatory body. The mechanical properties of the absorptive material can be varied by varying the concentration of a gas surrounding the absorptive material. The varied mechanical properties change the resonant frequency of the scanning device. A display apparatus includes the scanning device and the scanning device scans about two or more axes, typically in a raster pattern. Various approaches to controlling the frequency responses of the scanning device are described, including active control of MEMs scanners and passive frequency tuning.
