Title: Magnetic levitation control device and hybrid type magnetic bearing
Inventor: MASUZAWA TORU
IPC: F16C32/04
Filed: 2010-07-12
Granted: 2013-09-12
Abstract: A bias magnetic flux (10) is formed in such a way as to pass through an electromagnetic core (1) of an electromagnet (20), and furthermore, a bypass magnetic path (9A) constituting a magnetic path for a control magnetic flux (9) is formed in parallel with a permanent magnet (6), with the result that a bypass magnetic path (9A) is magnetized in such a direction as to prevent the passage of the bias magnetic flux (10). Due to this arrangement, even if the permanent magnet (6) and the electromagnet (20) are installed in positions where the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet (6) and that of the electromagnet (20) are mutually superimposed on each other, still the control magnetic flux (9) formed by the electromagnet (20) passes through the bypass magnetic path (9A), thereby permitting the loss of the control magnetic flux (9) to be curbed. By virtue of the above, it is possible to install the permanent magnet (6) and the electromagnet (20) in positions where the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet (6) and that of the electromagnet (20) are mutually superimposed on each other, leading to miniaturization of the pertinent device.

Title: Acoustic transmission
Inventor: BAGSHAW JOHN MARTIN
IPC: H04B11/00
Filed: 2010-09-06
Granted: 2015-01-15
Abstract: In apparatus for the acoustic transmission of power or data through a solid barrier such as a ships hull, assembly of an acoustic transducer to the hull is facilitated by bonding it first to an intermediate element by a thin layer of bonding adhesive and then bonding the intermediate element to the barrier using a second bonding layer. Acoustic matching of the transducer to the intermediate element is achieved by the thin layer, and the mechanically more robust base of the intermediate element can be rubbed on the barrier surface to displace or abrade away any unwanted debris or imperfections which might otherwise prevent the achievement of a thin second bonding layer. This makes the mounting and bonding process more tolerant of imperfections in the barrier surface due to either surface defects or particulate contamination. The transmit and receive transducers may be positioned relative to each other so as to suppress or attenuate multiple-transit signals. Thus the intermediate element may be wedge shaped to aid suppression of triple-transit signals. Transmit and receive transducers may have different wedge angles.

Title: Decomposing hyperspectral or multispectral image data
Inventor: ROBLES-KELLY ANTONIO
IPC: G01J3/00
Filed: 2011-08-10
Granted: 2017-02-23
Abstract: The disclosure concerns processing of electronic images, such as hyperspectral or multispectral images. In particular, but is not limited to methods, software and computer systems for determining underlying spectra of an image of a scene. The image data comprises for each pixel location a sampled image spectrum that is a mixture of plural reflectance spectra. Processor 310 determines or accesses plural hyperplanes that each have plural linearly independent basis vectors. Each hyperplane represents an estimate of one of the plural reflectance spectra. The processor 310 then determines for each pixel location, a contribution of the plural basis vectors of each hyperplane to the image spectrum of that pixel location. The processor 3 10 determines or accesses plural hyperplanes and not plural endmembers directly. Hyperplanes are two-dimensional while endmembers are only one-dimensional. As a result, hyperplanes carry more information, such as the illumination spectrum and are therefore of greater use. The decomposition of the image data into hyperplanes is possible without knowing the illumination spectrum. This decomposition allows for a range of new applications such as endmember extraction and compact representation.
