Abstract: A shock resistant applicator for non-evaporative liquid comprises an
elongated tubular housing sealed on one end enclosing a first liquid near the
sealed end separated from a second liquid by a viscous substance. The elongated
tubular housing has an opening means near the sealed end to release the enclosed
liquids through the open end of the elongated tubular housing. A shock resistant
plug is disposed near the open end of the elongated tubular housing and defines a
small through hole from the liquid to the open end of the elongated tubular
housing. The shock resistant plug will prevent the none-evaporative second liquid
from being unintentionally released from the elongated tubular housing by
dramatically increasing the surface tension of the second liquid near the open end
of the elongated tubular housing.

Abstract: A multipurpose hemofiltration system (10) and method are
disclosed for the removal of fluid and/or soluble waste from the blood of a patient.
The system (10) continuously monitors the flow rates of drained fluid, blood, and
infusate. When necessary, the pumping rates of the infusate, drained fluid and
blood are adjusted to remove a preselected amount of fluid from the blood in a
preselected time period. A supervisory controller (160) can monitor patient
parameters, such as heart rate (120) and blood pressure (130), and adjust the
pumping rates accordingly. The supervisory controller (160) uses fuzzy logic to
make expert decisions, based upon a set of supervisory rules, to control each
pumping rate to achieve a desired flow rate and to respond to fault conditions. An
adaptive controller (162) corrects temporal variations in the flow rate based upon
an adaptive law and a control law.

Abstract: A defect detection system (10) for thermally imaging a structure (12) that has been energized by a sound energy. The system (10) includes a transducer (14) that couples a sound signal into the structure (12), where the sound signal causes defects in the structure (12) to heat up. In one embodiment, the sound signal has one or more frequencies that are at or near an eigen-mode of the structure (12). In another embodiment, a non-linear coupling material (16) is positioned between the transducer (14) and the structure (12) to couple the sound energy from the transducer (14) to the structure (12). A predetermined force (26) is applied to the transducer (14) and a pulse duration and a pulse frequency of the sound signal are selected so t hat the sound energy induces acoustic chaos in the structure (12), thus generating increased thermal energy. A thermal imaging camera (22) images the structure (12) when it is heated by the sound signal.

Abstract: A road vehicle sensor provides an output signal having a magnitude which varies with time through a plurality of values as a vehicle passes the sensor. Signal processing apparatus monitors the timing of sensor signals generated from sensors in adjacent lanes of a highway and provides an indication when such sensor signals could correspond to a double count with a single vehicle being detected by both sensors. Then, the geometric mean of the amplitudes of the sensor signals from the sensors in adjacent lanes is calculated and is used to indicate a double count if the geometric mean is below a threshold value. Signal processing arrangements are also described to detect tailgating vehicles which may be simultaneously detected by a sensor, and for determining the length of slow moving or stationary traffic.
