Abstract: A telemetry unit (100) is provided for mounting to the inside of a pneumatic tyre, which includes sensors for measuring the pressure and temperature within the tyre and an RF transmitter for transmitting measured data to an on-board display remote location. The unit (100) includes a piezoelectric element (114) supported in a housing (112) with an actuator (136) arranged for contact with the element (114), to deflect the element (114) in response to external forces acting on the actuator (136) during rotation of the tyre. For every rotation of the tyre, cyclic pulses of electrical charge are generated by the deflection of the element (114). The unit (100) includes control means which controls the consumption of stored charge when measuring and transmitting data and is arranged to vary the rate of transmission of data from the unit (100) in dependance on the rotary speed of the tyre.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a PDP, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus of driving a PDP. The method includes the steps of initializing the cells by consecutively supplying a preliminary initialization waveform in which a square wave pulse and a ramp-down waveform are combined, a first ramp-up waveform for causing a write discharge to occur, a first ramp-down waveform for causing an erase discharge to occur, a second ramp-up waveform for causing a write discharge to occur, and a second ramp-down waveform for causing the erase discharge to occur to one of the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z; selecting the cells by supplying a data to the address electrodes X and supplying a scan pulse to at least one of the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z; and performing a display by alternately supplying a sustain pulse to the scan electrodes Y and the address electrodes X. Therefore, an address operational margin can be secured and the number of an initialization discharge can be reduced through stabilization of initialization. It is thus possible to improve a contrast characteristic and an address discharge characteristic.

Abstract: A carrier is used to carry a liquid, and a high voltage is applied between a discharge end of the carrier and an opposed electrode to emit ionized liquid particles. The carrier has a liquid collecting end opposite to the discharge end to feed the steam of the liquid from a steam generator, condensing the liquid therearound, and feeding the condensed liquid to the discharge end. Accordingly, even when the liquid contains cations such as those of Ca and Mg, the steam of the liquid can extremely reduce the content of these impurities, avoiding the precipitation of the impurities at the discharge end of the carrier to assure stable electrostatic atomization.

Abstract: A calibration technique for a measurement device that produces a spark in an interpane space of an insulating glass unit to determine the content of an inert gas, in particular, argon. Standard calibration units are created which have the same construction as an IGU produced an assembly line. The standard calibration units are filled with varying percentages of argon/oxygen mixture. The calibration technique can be performed on an assembly line by aiming the measurement device at a particular insulating glass unit produced on the assembly line. The measurement device is activated to take a reading of the unit on the line. One of a plurality of calibration standard units of insulating glass units is selected that has substantially an identical construction as the unit on the line except that the calibration standard unit selected has a known, specific amount of certified argon gas that should be the same as the unit on the line. The measurement device is aimed at the calibration standard unit. The measurement device is activated to take a reading of the calibration standard unit. The measurement taken of the calibration standard unit is compared to the known amount of argon gas in the standard calibration unit. And, finally adjusting the calibration of the measurement device if the comparison shows a discrepancy.

Abstract: L'analyse composante principale (PCA) est utilisée dans la modélisation d'un processus, des techniques de groupage étant utilisées pour regrouper des variations correspondant aux événements sur la base d'erreurs résiduelles des capteurs de modèle PCA. Le modèle PCA est testé sur des données normales, puis il est exploité sur des données historiques qui contiennent à la fois des données normales et des données à événements. Les données de mauvais acteur pour les événements en question sont identifiées par les variations de Q (erreur résiduelle), T2 (variation inhabituelle) résultant du modèle normal. On obtient ainsi une séquence temporelle de vecteurs de mauvais acteur. Les groupes de configurations de mauvais acteurs semblables sont formés puis associés aux événements.

Abstract: A radiation pulse, such as from a solar simulator, is spectrally analyzed over a selected sampling pulse that is shorter in duration than the radiation pulse and is timed to begin after the start of the radiation pulse. A deformable membrane mirror is controlled to function as a high speed shutter in the path of the radiation pulse. When not deformed, the mirror reflects the radiation pulse into an optical instrument, such as a spectroradiometer. A sampling pulse is generated for a selected time after the start of the radiation pulse and is applied to the mirror to ensure total reflection of the radiation pulse only for the duration of the sampling pulse. Controls are provided to adjust the start time and duration of the sampling pulse, and to adjust the sensitivity of sensing the start of the radiation pulse. <IMAGE>
