Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system for operating at least one exhaust valve of an engine. The engine has at least two engine operating conditions. The system in accordance with the present invention includes an energy supply assembly for supplying energy to operate the at least one exhaust valve during one of the at least two engine operating conditions. The system may further include an energy transfer assembly for transferring the energy from the energy supply assembly to operate the at least one exhaust valve. A valve actuating assembly is also included for actuating the at least one exhaust valve in response to operation of the energy transfer assembly. During operation, the energy transfer assembly transfers a first amount of energy to the valve actuating assembly during a first engine operating condition to open the at least one valve a first predetermined distance, and the energy transfer assembly transfers a second amount of energy to the valve actuating assembly during a second engine operating condition to open the at least one valve a second predetermined distance.

Abstract: An ellipsometric metrology apparatus for a sample contained in a chamber. A light source outside the chamber produces the illuminating beam. A polarizing device outside the chamber polarizes the illuminating beam. A window of selected dimensions and features is disposed in a plane substantially parallel to the sample surface and at least partly closes the chamber. A first directing device directs the polarized illuminating beam on to an area of the sample along a first optical path extending from the polarizing device to the area of the sample through the window. The first optical path forms a predetermined oblique angle of incidence relative to the sample surface. A polarization analyzing device is outside the chamber, a second directing device directs the reflected beam resulting from the illumination of the sample by the illuminating beam on to the analyzing device along a second optical path extending from the sample towards the analyzing device through the window. The reflected beam is symmetrical to the illuminating beam relative to a normal to the sample surface. A detecting device detects the output beam transmitted by the analyzing device in order to supply an output signal processing means processes the output signal in order to determine the changes in stage of polarization in phase and in amplitude caused by the reflection on the area of the sample.

Abstract: An embedded real time diagnostic system that is applicable to fault detection and isolation in host systems having repetitive subsystems. A query directed acyclic graph (Q-DAG) for one of each type of repetitive subsystem is compiled off-line from a causal network model and is stored in host system computer memory. When a fault in the host system is detected by the computer, a replicating program replicates the necessary subsystem Q-DAGs to construct an overall host system Q-DAG. A data table which contains information on how the various Q-DAGs are linked based on the hardware architecture of the host system, is also accessed by the computer. The data table contains a matrix which dictates which Q-DAGs are linked, and Q-DAG level information on the Q-DAG nodes and which nodes are linked to nodes in other Q-DAGs. The new diagnostic system uses less memory and processor throughput while still providing full system diagnostics.

Abstract: Anode assembly consisting of an anode cermet (2) and an auxiliary layer (3) positioned between the anode cermet and the electrolyte (1). According to the invention this anode cermet comprises a mixture of metals and metal oxides and oxygen ion-conducting oxide. In order to improve the adhesion of this layer to the electrolyte under mechanical stress, which arises in particular in the case of a change in temperature and gas disruptions as a consequence of system malfunctions, it is proposed to produce the auxiliary layer from a material that essentially comprises oxygen ion-conducting oxide. In order to improve the contact with the current collector it is proposed to apply a contact layer (4) essentially consisting of metal (oxide) particles between the anode cermet (2) and the current collector (5).
