Abstract: A redox flow battery composed of a plurality of cells in electrical series defined by a stacked and repetitive arrangement of a conductive intercell separator having a generally bipolar function, a positive electrode, an ion exchange membrane, a negative electrode and another conductive intercell separator, is operated by flowing a positive half-cell electrolyte containing reducible and oxidizable ions of a first redox couple through the compartments containing the positive electrodes and a negative half-cell electrolyte containing reducible and oxidizable ions of a second redox couple through the compartments containing the negative electrodes in cascade in a counter or equi-current mode. The difference of cell voltage between the first and the last cell of the stack is sensibly reduced and by-pass currents are substantially eliminated thus resulting in an increased overall faradic efficiency. A cell stack architecture provided with ducting for implementing the two counter current cascaded flows of the positive and negative electrolytes is described. The alternated used of cationic and anionic membranes compensate for unbalanced water transport through the membranes.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for localizing an area in relative movement and for determining the speed and direction thereof in real time is disclosed. Each pixel of an image is smoothed using its own time constant. A binary value corresponding to the existence of a significant variation in the amplitude of the smoothed pixel from the prior frame, and the amplitude of the variation, are determined, and the time constant for the pixel is updated. For each particular pixel, two matrices are formed that include a subset of the pixels spatially related to the particular pixel. The first matrix contains the binary values of the subset of pixels. The second matrix contains the amplitude of the variation of the subset of pixels. In the first matrix, it is determined whether the pixels along an oriented direction relative to the particular pixel have binary values representative of significant variation, and, for such pixels, it is determined in the second matrix whether the amplitude of these pixels varies in a known manner indicating movement in the oriented direction. In each of several domains, histogram of the values in the first and second matrices falling in such domain is formed. Using the histograms, it is determined whether there is an area having the characteristics of the particular domain. The domains include luminance, hue, saturation, speed (V), oriented direction (D1), time constant (CO), first axis (x(m)), and second axis (y(m)).

Abstract: A microrelay manufactured by microsystem technology and a process for manufacturing the same are disclosed. In the claimed microrelay, the excitation coil has a conical form. This conical arrangement of the coil windings induces a magnetic field which is substantially more homogeneous than in planar coils. Due to this more homogeneous magnetic field, the relay contact elements are pressed more strongly onto the contact surfaces and an electromagnetic relay with higher wear resistance and longer service life is obtained. The conical arrangement of the coil windings can be obtained by metal deposition and structuring on the walls of a pit anisotropically etched in a silicon chip.

Abstract: A valve gating apparatus and method for injection molding includes at least one shutter disposed between the gate and the cavity melt channel into a mold cavity. The shutter is moved laterally, between a closed position wherein flow of melt from the nozzle into the cavity is inhibited, and an open position wherein flow of melt into the cavity is unimpeded by the shutter. Intermediate these two positions, the shutter can be employed to reduce the cross-sectional area of the gate to throttle the gate. Embodiments are disclosed wherein one shutter or pairs of shutters are employed to gate the gate. Further, when pairs of shutters are employed, the shutters can abut each other in the close position or can overlie each other. This novel design prevents generation of waste material and eliminates the need to have means for removing cold plugs.
