Title: Method and apparatus for evaluation of eddy current testing signal
Inventor: KUROKAWA MASAAKI
IPC: G01N27/90
Filed: 2001-02-15
Abstract: A method for evaluation of an eddy current testing signal is provided. The method includes the steps of generating a feature amount based on a sample eddy current testing signal obtained by measuring a standard specimen, the feature amount including a feature highly correlated to a secondary factor which is other than a depth of the flaw and which affects the waveform of the signal; generating an evaluation parameter by using the feature amount, the evaluation parameter being a parameter for outputting a value with a sufficiently small error relative to correct answer data on the sample eddy current testing signal; and estimating the depth of a flaw, expressed by an actual measurement eddy current testing signal, by use of the evaluation parameter.

Title: Method for disseminating a message
Inventor: BRIESEMEISTER LINDA
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1999-09-10
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for disseminating a message in an incomplete radiocommuniation network (2) comprising a variable number of subscribers (4-12) whereby each subscriber has a device that sends and receives messages in addition to a positioning system that determines a global position. Once the message is received, subscribers (9-12) determine their own position and the distance from the transmitter of said message, whereby the transmitter of the message is also a subscriber (6-12). They send the message together with their current position to other subscribers (6-12) when a specific amount of waiting time (t) has elapsed, whereby the waiting time (t) decreases monotonously as the distance (2) increases. This enables the message to be transmitted quickly without putting any strain on the radiocommunication network.

Patent CA-2353696-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SCHNABLE ANDREW
IPC: H04B10/24
Filed: 2001-07-24
Abstract: Circuitry for a node of an optical communication network is configured to mux (i.e., combine) one or more incoming customer signals for transmission as a single outgoing optical signal and to demux (i.e., split) an incoming optical signal into one or more outgoing customer signals, where the muxing and demuxing clocks are selected from one or more customer clocks recovered from the one or more customer signals, an input clock recovered from the incoming optical signal, and a local clock generated by a local clock generator. When configured for an add/drop configuration, the circuitry selects (1) the muxing clock from the one or more customer clocks, the input clock, and the local clock and (2) the demuxing clock from the input clock and the local clock. When configured for a drop/continue configuration, the circuitry is configured to select both the muxing and demuxing clocks from either the first input clock or the local clock. The circuitry is configured to perform a hardware-based switch to select the backup clock as the new muxing clock upon detection of a loss-of clock condition for the previously selected muxing clock. The node automatically coordinates its selection of muxing clocks with the other corresponding node in order to avoid loop-timing problems.

Title: Water heater having dual side-by-side heating elements
Inventor: BRADENBAUGH KENNETH A
IPC: H05B3/82
Filed: 2001-12-28
Abstract: A water heater having a water tank and multiple electric resistance heating elements extending into the water tank for heating water in the tank. The water heater includes a proportional band temperature controller for conducting electric power to the electric resistance heating elements in bursts. Each burst of electric power is followed by a period during which the temperature controller does not conduct power to the electric resistance heating element. In one embodiment, each burst of electrical power lasts for about 95% or less of a cycle comprised of one burst of electric power followed by the period during which the temperature controller does not conduct electric power. Further, activation of the heating elements by the controller is carried out in a sequential or other timed or controlled fashion to permit uniform heating of the water in the tank.
Patent CA-2366902-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WALT MICHAEL A II
IPC: B23P19/06
Filed: 2002-01-02
Abstract: A more reliable and fool-proof method and apparatus for assembling an article of assembly (e.g. with predetermined screw torque requirements) in which the article of assembly has multiple fastening locations. The method comprises holding the article of assembly fixed while providing at least two different types of targets fixed relative to the article of assembly that correspond to the individual fastening locations.  Fasteners are fastened into the article of assembly at the fastening locations. When fastening is occurring at one of the fastening locations, one of the targets is being sensed. Based on the target sensed, a target output is generated that differentiates between different types of targets thereby indicating fastening location of the fastening tool. The electronic target output is used for electronic control such as for stopping a conveyor to keep the article of assembly at an assembly station until the fastening operations have been completed.

Title: Method and apparatus for optimizing environmental temperature for a device under test
Inventor: STEWART ROBERT T
IPC: G05D23/19
Filed: 2000-03-15
Abstract: A method and associated algorithm for controlling and optimizing the temperature of a device under test (DUT) through calculation of a moving setpoint which varies from the user-specified DUT core temperature. The method generally comprises (i) calculating a system operating range based on limits imposed by the DUT, associated temperature control system, and thermal conditioning equipment; (ii) determining the allowable operating range for the DUT based on permissible DUT  stress and DUT core temperature; and (iii) calculating a control setpoint based on DUT and conditioning system temperature data, one or more pre-selected setup factors, and the system and DUT operating ranges. In another aspect of the invention, variable temperature differential limits are imposed on the CSP as a function of DUT core temperature in order to mitigate thermal shock to the DUT. A computer system and thermal conditioning system incorporating the above-described method and algorithm is also disclosed.

Title: Method for eliminating free fatty acids from fats and oils of biological origin or their vapor condensates
Inventor: KOENIG WOLFGANG
IPC: C11B1/00
Filed: 2000-04-18
Abstract: In order to eliminate fatty acids from fats and oils of biological origin or their vapor condensates, the free fatty acids are extracted with a mixture of basic organic nitrogen compounds and water as extracting agents at a temperature below boiling temperature of the organic nitrogen compounds. The proportion of basic organic nitrogen compounds in the extracting agent should amount at least to approximately 20 percent by weight and at most approximately 60 percent by weight, preferably between approximately 30 and approximately 40 percent by weight. This prevents the formation of a viscose soapstock that is difficult to eliminate. The boiling temperature of the basic organic nitrogen compound(s) used should be the same or higher than the boiling temperature of the water and lower than the boiling temperature of the fatty acids to be extracted in order to facilitate easy recovery of the extracting agent.
