Abstract: A testing machine (100) measures mechanical characteristics (i.e. obtains data) of an elongated material specimen (200) having two ends (201, 202). A first fastening device (110) receives the first end (201) and a second fastening device (120) receives the second end (202). A drive (130) at one of the devices applies a torque (M) that leads to torsion of the specimen (200). A first sensor (141) measures a torsion angle (φ) applicable to the specimen (200) and provides torsion angle data. A second sensor (142) measures the torque (M) and provides torque data. A data processing unit (150) processes the torsion angle data and the torque data into stress-strain data (sigma-epsilon, σ-ε) by using a geometry factor (G) that depends on the cross-section of the specimen (200).

IPC: F24D19/10
Filed: 2019-08-20
Abstract: A controller assembly allows an adjusted flow of water through a hydronic emitter in order to heat or cool an environmental entity. The controller assembly operates in two phases: a calibration phase and an operational phase. During the calibration phase, the controller assembly discovers a valve position where water starts to flow through the hydronic emitter based on signals from a temperature sensor and/or a sound sensor. The temperature sensor may be mounted in close proximity of the emitter inlet so that the controller assembly can detect when the temperature starts to change. The sound sensor may be mounted on the valve body to detect a rushing water sound that is associated with a start of the water flow. The discovered valve position is subsequently used by the controller assembly to adjust water flow between a minimum flow and a maximum flow.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for closed-loop respiration entrainment based on spatialized audio signals. According to an aspect, based on a determined rate of a subject's respiration, spatialization of a virtual sound source is altered to simulate a distance or directionality to the subject. Simulating the distance, directionality, and/or source characteristics comprises processing sounds of the virtual sound source to generate a perception of the sounds being heard from one or more distances or directions with reference to the subject. The altered virtual sound source attempts to regulate the rate of respiration of the subject. An audio device outputs the sounds of the altered virtual sound source.
