Title: Railway vehicle including an energy storage system
Inventor: CHRISTOPHER DAUTEL
IPC: B61C3/00
Filed: 2020-08-14
Abstract: A railway vehicle 10 includes an energy storage system (105, figure 1) comprising rechargeable batteries for providing electrical power to a traction motor of a train drive system, and at least one casing 3 forming a chamber in which the batteries are sealingly housed. The railway vehicle further includes an exhaust system 4 for collection and discharge of combustion fumes generated by accidental combustion of the batteries. The exhaust system provides a collection duct 4b which opens to the chamber 3 for collection of combustion fumes. The exhaust system further provides a discharge duct 4a which fluidly communicates with the collection duct to receive the combustion fumes therefrom. The discharge duct discharges the received combustion fumes to the outside of the vehicle at an outlet port 4d which is located to direct the discharged combustion fumes away from a passenger compartment. The exhaust system is configured to provide (i) a closed operational state which in normal usage maintains airtight sealing of the batteries in the chamber and (ii) an open operational state which in the event of combustion of the rechargeable batteries enables flow of combustion fumes from the chamber through the exhaust system to the outlet port.

Title: Setting mechanical barriers in a single run
Inventor: DAVID ALLEN DOCKWEILER
IPC: E21B33/12
Filed: 2018-06-13
Abstract: An operation may require isolation of a wellbore using multiple barriers. A single-run multiple barrier system may be deployed in a wellbore to position a first barrier at a first depth and a second barrier at second depth above the first barrier in the wellbore during a single run of a wellbore tubular string. The first barrier is coupled to a first running tool. A wellbore tubular string segment couples the first running tool is coupled to the second barrier. The second barrier is coupled to a second running tool that couples to the wellbore tubular string. The second barrier is locked until the first barrier is independently set at the first depth to prevent the second barrier from being set until the second depth is reached. Setting both barriers in a single run increases efficiency in an operation including reducing costs and time for completion of the operation.

Title: Method, system and sensor for analysing a sample, and process for manufacturing an electrode
Inventor: IAN ALASDAIR PENTLAND
IPC: G01N21/3581
Filed: 2022-03-31
Abstract: A sample 200 including a layer I with a first interface and a second interface is irradiated with a pulse of terahertz radiation. Reflected radiation is detected to produce a sample waveform, from which a first reflection waveform R0 and second reflection waveform R1 are obtained, corresponding to reflections from the first and second interfaces respectively. The first R0 and second R1 reflection waveforms are compared to estimate a thickness d and complex refractive index of the layer l. A synthesised signal is produced using the thickness and refractive index estimates, and the error between the synthesised and sample signals reduced by varying the thickness and/or refractive index, and the thickness d of the layer l is output. In another embodiment the sensor (5, fig 3) includes an optical element to resolve reflected radiation. In a further embodiment a focussing element (55-b, fig 11b) directs THz radiation towards a sample along a first path and towards an internal mirror (59-b, fig 11b) along a second path. The thickness d of the layer l may be used to determine density and conductivity of the layer l.
