Abstract: A composite-based rim (100) and methods for manufacturing such a rim are provided. The rim includes muliple fiber-based, co-mingled layers, wherein strength and/or stiffness of the layers increases from the innermost layer of the rim (110) to the outermost layer of the rim (140), but where the radial stress and strain generated in the rim decreases from the innermost layer (110) to the outermost layer (140). Incorporation of this rim into a high stress and strain usage environment, such as a flywheel system, allows the rim to be spun at high speeds in order to generate high levels of kinetic energy while beneficially managing the amount of strain and radial stresses generated within the rim, and, in turn, minimizing or at least controlling the formation and propagation of cracks within the rim.

Title: Distributed architecture for magnetic fare card processing
Inventor: PROW ROBERT
IPC: G11B20/14
Filed: 2002-08-22
Granted: 2011-05-24
Abstract: A process for encoding and decoding data on the magnetic stripe of a card at any bit density is provided. Data is read from the magnetic stripe of a card and transmitted to a single board computer (110). The single board computer (110) receives the data and determines if the bit density of the card is supported by the computer. If the bit density is supported, the data is sent to a demodulator object (204, 206) to be demodulated and converted to a data stream of ASCII characters. The data stream is then decoded, unpacked and sent to a ticket validator (218) to check the validity of the data. If the bit density is not supported by the computer (110), a demodulator object supporting the bit density can be instantiated.

Title: Ir absorbing photosensitive optically variable ink compositions and process
Inventor: AUSLANDER JUDITH D
IPC: C09K11/02
Filed: 2005-06-14
Granted: 2010-12-07
Abstract: Water-soluble, photosensitive, optically variable (POV) inks exhibit improved OCR readability due to improved infrared absorption properties. The inks can produce images that can be viewed with both visible and ultraviolet light to have physically coincident positive and negative images. The new inks contain at least two types of colorants in addition to the IR absorber and other suitable ingredients. The first colorant comprises a fluorescent dye or pigment emitting light within a characteristic emission band when excited by fluorescent-exciting radiation. The second colorant comprises a carbon black infrared radiation absorbing composition alone or with one or more dyes or pigments having a light absorption band at longer wavelengths than the characteristic emission band of the first colorant or also overlapping the emission wavelength of the first colorant in such a way as to result in a dark color. The inks are formulated to provide higher contrast in the presence of IR radiation while retaining a strong negative correlation between the visible and fluorescent images.

Title: Remote optical control of electrical circuits
Inventor: DINCA GEORGE
IPC: G08C23/06
Filed: 2008-01-31
Granted: 2012-02-14
Abstract: An optical controlling circuit and an electrical controlled circuit such as a motor control circuit are interconnected by an electro-optic interface. A passive optical switch located in the optical circuit at a position remote from the electrical circuit is physically actuated to generate a change in optical transmission state of the optical circuit. At the electro-optic interface, the change in optical transmission state of the optical circuit is detected and triggers a change in the electrical transmission state of the electric circuit. Embodied as STOP and START pushbuttons, a pair of such passive optical switches at a position remote from the electric circuit reduces the risk that actuating motor control circuits and the like will cause arcing and, in hazardous environments, explosion.
