Title: End treatments and transitions for water-ballasted protection barrier arrays
Inventor: MAUS GEOFFREY B
IPC: E01F15/14
Filed: 2012-02-10
Abstract: An end treatment array for crash attenuation includes a transition barrier module formed of side walls, end walls, a top wall, and a bottom wall, wherein the module walls together define an enclosed interior space. The end treatment array further includes a containment impact sled having an axially extending frame. The frame has a width sufficient to contain the transition barrier module within the frame when in an assembled configuration, and has an axial length which is at least one-half the length of the transition barrier module. The frame defines an interior volume, the purpose of which is to contain a substantial portion of the transition barrier module in the assembled configuration, and to contain debris caused by destruction of the plastic barrier modules in a vehicular impact. The containment impact sled is attached to the transition barrier module.

Title: Method of controlling the switching of a multilevel converter, a controller for a multilevel converter, and a computer program for controlling a converter
Inventor: TOWNSEND CHRISTOPHER
IPC: H02M7/483
Filed: 2014-08-11
Abstract: A method of controlling a multilevel converter, a computer program and a controller for a converter is provided. The method includes determining a transition voltage (vstep) from a control period (k) to a following control period (k+1), analyzing (104) the switching cells (SC1, SC2, SC3, SCn) of each phase leg, selecting (111) capacitors to provide the transition voltage and synthesize the output voltage for the following control period (k+1), and connecting (113) the selected capacitors during the following control period (k+1). Especially, the analyzing (104) of each switching cell (SC1; SC2; SC3; SCn) comprises analyzing (104) a first switching leg (SL1) and a second switching leg (SL1) of the switching cell (SC1; SC2; SC3; SCn), and the method includes determining (105) whether a change of state of the first switching leg (SL1) would contribute to the direction of the transition voltage, and determining (105) whether a change of state of the second switching leg (SL2) would contribute to the direction of the transition voltage, and determining (107) the internal conditions of each of the first (SL1) and the second switching leg (SL2) that are determined as contributing to the transition. Thus, the two legs of the H-bridge are analyzed separately. The selecting (111) of capacitors is performed by selecting (111) the capacitors of the switching legs (SL1; SL2) of the phase leg (PA, PB, PC) for the transition voltage on the basis of the determined internal conditions of the switching legs (SL1, SL2), including comparing the internal conditions of all the switching legs (SL1; SL2) of the phase leg (PA, PB, PC). A controller (40) is configured to control the multilevel converter by performing the method.

IPC: F03D3/02
Filed: 2017-05-10
Abstract: This invention pertains to improvements on the turbine concept of the above patent by attaching EDGE PROTECTORS to the rotor blades of said concept. These improvements list as follows: 1. Shorten the production time and thus costs of the existing concept. 2. Improve the aerodynamic efficiency by a valuable degree. 3. Increase the swept area as a bonus. 4. Improve the protection of birds and bats. This Edge Protector is to be produced by continuous extrusion and cut to length as to fit the length of the rotor blades. The cross section of the edge protector will look very similar to an airplane wing or an air foil. The most suitable plastic material should be polyurethane with optimized softness and flexibility; very likely a compromise for accommodating somewhat competing demands between points 2. 3. and 4. of the list of improvements.   The methods of choice for attaching and fastening the edge protector to the blades will be gluing or riveting, with the latter preferable with regard to easy replacement. Technical Field The invention relates to a vertical axis wind turbine, and in particular the one described in Canadian patent 2,546,750 Background Art As reported in said patent. (I assume there is no need to reiterate the entire text here again). Disclosure of Invention The object of the invention is to improve on the overall quality of the Vertical Axis Wind Turbine, according to said patent on four accounts: 1. Shorten the production time and ¨ costs of said wind turbine. 2. Improve the aerodynamic efficiency by a measurable degree. 3. Increase the swept area without having to change any other substantial parameter. 4. Improve on the protection of Birds and bats. As to point 1. The leading edges of the blades, in the referenced patent there are six blades per rotor, running over the whole length of those rotors, feature sharp edges due to the production process. These edges have to be deburred, or even better, rounded by grinding. This is either a very

Abstract: A method of blink detection in a laser eye surgical system includes providing a topography measurement structure having a geometric marker. The method includes bringing the topography measurement structure into a position proximal to an eye such that light traveling from the geometric marker is capable of reflecting off a refractive structure of the eye of the patient, and also detecting the light reflected from the structure of the eye for a predetermined time period while the topography measurement structure is at the proximal position. The method further includes converting the light reflected from the surface of the eye into image data and analyzing the image data to determine whether light reflected from the geometric marker is present is in the reflected light, wherein if the geometric marker is determined not to be present, the patient is identified as having blinked during the predetermined time.

IPC: H01M10/44
Filed: 2017-03-31
Abstract: A bidirectional power converter circuit is controlled via a hysteresis loop such that the bidirectional power converter circuit can compensate for variations and even changes in transmit and receive coil locations without damaging components of the system. Because the bidirectional power converter is capable of both transmitting and receiving power (at different times), one circuit and board may be used as the main component in multiple wireless power converter designs. A  first bidirectional power converter is employed in a sealed battery unit having no external electrical contacts. A second bidirectional power converter is employed in a corresponding cart bidirectional power converter assembly. The battery unit and the cart bidirectional power converter assembly cooperate to wirelessly transmit power from the battery unit to a load of the cart bidirectional power converter assembly and from a power source to the battery unit via the cart bidirectional power converter assembly.

Abstract: A method and a system for three-dimensional (3D) synthetic aperture (SA) imaging are disclosed. The method and system use spatial modulation on SA return signals as a function of their return angle distribution to account for local topography and provide 3D imaging capabilities. In some implementations, the method can involve a step of generating two spatially modulated two-dimensional (2D) SA images of a target region, each of which having a different spatial modulation profile, and a step of combining the two spatially modulated 2D SA images to obtain a 3D SA image. The 3D SA image can be used to determine an elevation map of the target region.
