Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of diagnosing a fault on a transformer winding by using frequency response analysis (FRA). The method comprises the steps of: measuring the impedance on said winding as a function of frequency, said measurement being represented in the form of a first voltage gain (k); comparing said impedance measurement with a reference measurement represented in the form of a second voltage gain (k'), said comparison including a step of calculating three first parameters, each of said three first parameters being a correlation coefficient (p1, p2, p3), between said first and second gains (k, k') over three different frequency ranges. The method further comprises a step of determining the relative variation of at least a fourth parameter (CR k, CR f, CR n) , said fourth parameter being a physical magnitude characteristic of said transformer, said relative variation being obtained by comparing said first and second gains (k, k').

Abstract: An object of this invention is to cancel a polarization dependence of a transmission center wavelength due to the waveguide birefringence in an array waveguide and a slab waveguide in an array waveguide diffraction grating type optical multiplexer/demultiplexer filter applied for optical communication, particularly, wavelength split multiplexing system. In order to achieve the object of this invention, a polarization mode convertor converts the TE mode in a waveguide to the TM mode and the TM mode to the TE mode. This conversion function makes it possible to cancel the polarization dependence of the transmission center wavelength due to the waveguide birefringence in the array waveguide and the slab waveguide in front of and behind the polarization mode convertor.

Title: Method and apparatus for desynchronization of neural brain activity
Inventor: TASS PETER
IPC: A61N1/08
Filed: 2004-10-20
Granted: 2012-07-10
Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for desynchronization of neural, illness-synchronous brain activity in which, according to the invention, the activities in at least two subareas of a brain area or at least two functionally associated brain areas are stimulated by means of at least two electrodes, on the basis of which, in the case of a person with an illness, desynchronization surprisingly occurs in the relevant neuron population and the symptoms are suppressed. The feedback stimulation signal, that is to say the measured, time-delayed and process neural activity, is used as an individual stimulus. In consequence, this results in demand control, which is self-regulating according to the invention, of the amplitude of the stimulation signal thus minimizing the intensity of the stimulation stimuli automatically after successful desynchronization. For successful operation, the apparatus requires neither complex calibration nor control of the stimulation parameters and, instead, these can preferably be adapted and optimized by the additional controller. The apparatus has at least two stimulation electrodes (2) and at least one sensor (3), which are driven by a controller such that they result in desynchronization in their local environment.

Title: Circularly polarized light method and device for determining wall thickness and orientations of fibrils of cellulosic fibres
Inventor: JANG HO FAN
IPC: G01B11/06
Filed: 2004-11-25
Granted: 2011-10-11
Abstract: This invention provides a novel, rapid method and device for determining the relative phase retardation of different layers of a multi-layered specimen, which is related to the thicknesses of its layers and walls, and the orientations of its optical axes. An intact wood pulp fibre is a typical multi-layered birefringent specimen. This new method is based on the change of polarization of polarized light that passes through a specimen composed of birefringent layers with different optical axis orientations, such as directions of cellulosic microfibrils oriented differently in various layers of wood fibres. In particular, a novel solution is found to relate the emerging light intensity from an intact wood fibre to the incident light intensity, the wavelength of the light, and the relative phase retardations of various layers and orientations of their cellulosic microfibrils, such as fibril angle, in a circularly polarized light system. This new method evaluates the transmitted light intensities of multiple predetermined wavelengths simultaneously to determine the optical and physical properties of a multi-layered specimen being measured. A device for determining the relative phase retardation (retardance) of fibre walls and the fibril angle of intact wood fibres in accordance with the presented invention comprises a light source with well defined multi-wavelengths, an achromatic circularly polarized light system, appropriate imaging optics, a multi-channel camera such as a digital color camera that has two or more wavelength (color) detection channels, and an image processing and data analysis system. The measurements take advantage of the birefringence of cellulosic microfibrils, and thus require neither sample preparation nor high resolution optics. Specimen alignment is not required as specimens such as wood fibres are evaluated under circularly polarized light. Compared with other methods, this invention is more rapid, accurate, and robust. This method can be automated, and implemented in a fibre flow-through system, thus allowing a rapid assessment of wood pulp fibre properties (on-line in real time).
