Title: A system and method for real-time prognostics analysis and residual life assessment of machine components
Inventor: KOUL ASHOK AK
IPC: F02C9/00
Filed: 2007-11-01
Granted: 2010-06-08
Abstract: A system for performing continuous (real-time) prognostics analysis and a method for the display of the changes in the fracture critical locations, life to flaw or crack nucleation and distortion and life consumption of multiple turbine engine components prior to the development of internal material damage and faults in the components. Each engine control system is connected to an interface and to a data analysis and a prognostics processor unit and routinely monitored engine parameters such as engine speed, turbine inlet or exit temperatures, ambient temperature and pressure and cooling airflow are measured in real-time. The system performs modified rain-flow and materials engineering rule based mission profile analysis for assessing variability in damage accumulation modes and mechanisms which is followed by combustor modeling to predict the combustion liner temperatures and combustion nozzle plane temperature distributions as a function of engine usage. This is further followed by off-design engine modeling to determine the pitch-line temperatures in hot gas path components and thermodynamic modeling to compute the component temperature profiles of gas path components for different stages of the turbine; followed by finite element (FE) based non-linear stress-strain analysis using a real-time FE solver and materials microstructure and internal state variable based damage accumulation and fracture analysis. The system further performs real- time remaining life analysis in the presence of flaws or distortion and predicts a safe inspection interval of multiple turbine engine components.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate increasing system capacity in a code-limited WCDMA (e.g., TDD, FDD, ~) wireless communication environment. According to one aspect, a larger code space can be defined by introducing multiple code clusters within a sector, wherein each cluster has a unique scrambling code. Codes within a cluster can have orthogonal Walsh sequences that can be assigned to user devices to facilitate communicating over a wireless network and can overlap with codes in another cluster. The unique scrambling code assigned to each cluster can ensure that duplicate Walsh sequences in another cluster in the same sector appear as a pseudo-noise codes.

Abstract: An air operated dock leveler is provided to selectively raise and lower a deck with an extendable lip. The deck includes a downwardly extending deck lift arm. An air lift assembly includes a single chamber, inflatable bag positioned between a stationary lower bag support and movable upper platform. A pull line is secured to the platform and the deck lift arm. When actuated, a blower inflates the bag and raises the platform. The pull line pulls the deck lift arm forward and raises the deck to an inclined position. When the blower is turned off, the ramp descends until the now extended lip engages the bed of a truck. After loading or unloading the trailer, the bag is reinflated to raise the ramp and retract the lip. The blower is then turned off, and the ramp descends to its stored position.

Abstract: The purpose of this invention is to set the position of the gas barrier layer in such a manner as to solve the problem of decreased accuracy of neck molding dimensions created by the thermal crystallization and the problem of interlaminar separation in the bottom, both of which are associated with the provision of the gas barrier layer. Problems should be solved without being affected by the displacement of the gas barrier layer, which may take place during the co-injection operation of the PET resin layers and the gas barrier layer. A biaxially drawn, blow-molded bottle and its preform comprise at least a layer of a gas barrier material 3 laminated inside the PET resin layers 2, a functional portion 5 having a screw thread 8 raised spirally in the upper portion of neck 4 and also having a stop ring 6 disposed under the screw thread 8, and a neck ring 7 disposed at the lower end of the neck 4. In these preform and bottle, the leading edge 3a of the gas barrier layer 3 is positioned at a half height of the neck ring 7 where the most advanced front of the leading edge 3a neither reaches a half height of the stop ring 6 nor extends to the functional portion 5. It is intended here that the neck 4 would not be affected by the shrinking deformation caused by the existence of the gas barrier layer 3 in the functional portion 5 of the neck 4, which is treated for thermal crystallization.
