Filed: 1996-11-15
Abstract: A swept turbomachinery blade for use in a cascade of such blades is disclosed. The blade (12) has an airfoil (22) uniquely swept so that an endwall shock (64) of limited radial extent and a passage shock (66) are coincident and a working medium (48) flowing through interblade passages (50) is subjected to a single coincident shock rather than the individual shocks. In one embodiment of the invention the forwardmost extremity of the airfoil defines an inner transition point (40) located at an inner transition radius r t-inner . The sweep angle of the airfoil is nondecreasing with increasing radius from the inner transition radius to an outer transition radius r t-outer , radially inward of the airfoil tip (26), and is nonincreasing with increasing radius between the outer transition radius and the airfoil tip.

Abstract: A capacitive occupant detection system (10) comprises a sine signal generator (12) to apply a sine voltage signal to an antenna electrode (14) and a current measurement circuit (18, 20, 28, 30, 40) to measure current signals, based upon which a control and evaluation unit determines and outputs an occupancy state. The signal generator (12) is coupled to the antenna electrode via an amplitude adjustment stage (13), configured to adjust the amplitude of said sine voltage signal applied to said antenna electrode to an amplitude selected among at least two discrete amplitudes. The control and evaluation circuit selects one of the discrete amplitudes at a time and causes the amplitude adjustment stage to adjust the amplitude of said the voltage signal applied to the antenna electrode accordingly. The control and evaluation circuit carries out an interference detection mode and an occupant detection mode. In interference detection mode, the current signals are measured while a low one of the at least two discrete amplitudes is selected and it is determined whether the antenna electrode is exposed to interference. In occupant detection mode, the current signals are measured while a high one of the at least two discrete amplitudes is selected and occupancy state is determined based upon the current signals thus measured.

Abstract: A method of investigating a sample using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), comprising the following steps: 
- Irradiating a surface (S) of the sample using a probing electron beam in a plurality (N) of measurement sessions, each measurement session having an associated beam parameter (P) value that is chosen from a range of such values and that differs between measurement sessions; 
- Detecting stimulated radiation emitted by the sample during each measurement session, associating a measurand (M) therewith and noting the value of this measurand for each measurement session, thus allowing compilation of a data set (D) of data pairs (P i , M i ), where 1 ≤ i ≤N, 
 
wherein: 
- A statistical Blind Source Separation (BSS) technique is employed to automatically process the data set (D) and spatially resolve it into a result set (R) of imaging pairs (Q k , L k ), in which an imaging quantity (Q) having value Q k  is associated with a discrete depth level L k  referenced to the surface S. 
 
A suitable example of such a BSS technique is Principal Component Analysis (PCA), e.g. employing a Karhunen-Loeve transform operation. 
This technique allows high-resolution 3D volume reconstruction from a sequence of backscattered images acquired by a SEM. The method differs from known techniques in that it can be used on complex samples with unknown structure. With this method, one can compute compensation factors between high- and low-energy images using second-order (or higher-order) multivariate statistics, which allows for the effective separation of different depth layers in a sample without using a  priori  knowledge of sample structure. The method has a wide range of applications in life-science and material science imaging.
