Title: Method of repairing turbine component
Inventor: GARAY GREGORY TERRENCE
IPC: B23P15/02
Filed: 2018-02-15
Abstract: Methods of manufacturing or repairing a turbine blade or vane are described. The airfoil portions of these turbine components are typically manufactured by casting in a ceramic mold, and a surface made up of the cast airfoil and at the least the ceramic core serves as a build surface for a subsequent process of additively manufacturing the tip portions. The build surface is created by removing a top portion of the airfoil and the core, or by placing an ultra-thin shim on top of the airfoil and the core. The overhang projected by the shim is subsequently removed. These methods are not limited to turbine engine applications, but can be applied to any metallic object that can benefit from casting and additive manufacturing processes. The present disclosure also relates to finished and intermediate products prepared by these methods.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for detaching an adhering charge (3) from the inner wall of a vessel (2), particularly a grinding pipe (2). In order to detach the adhering charge (3), also called a "frozen charge", a recurrent interference interfering with a rotational movement of the grinding pipe (2) is imparted to the movement. The recurrent interference is preferably produced by an interference current (ΔΙ) imparted to the motor current (I). The interference current (ΔΙ) is preferably selected on the basis of the type of charge and/or on the basis of the physical characteristics of the tube mill. The invention at least greatly simplifies the detachment of the adhering charge (3). Optionally or alternatively, the recurrent interference can also be a mechanical interference (ms).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A transmitting node, such as a base station, may transmit downlink control information (DCI) to a user equipment (UE) using a number of shortened control channel elements (sCCEs). Each sCCE may consist of a number of shortened resource element groups (sREGs). The base station may map each sCCE to one or more sREGs using a mapping function to ensure that each sCCE is mapped to a unique set of sREGs (e.g., no single sREG is allocated to more than one sCCE). Use of the mapping function may further ensure that each sREG mapped to an sCCE is within a single symbol. The transmitting node may also configure a set of resource blocks (RBs) corresponding to the sREGs such that the number of RBs per symbol is an integer multiple of the number of sREGs per sCCE.

When a difference between the first and second inter-vehicle distances is smaller than any of a first position error radius and a second position error radius, a vehicle with a larger reception level is determined as a vehicle closer to the own vehicle. When the difference between the inter-vehicle distances is larger than both the first position error radius and the second position error radius, a vehicle with a smaller inter-vehicle distance is determined as a vehicle closer to the own vehicle, and a distance to a leading vehicle is calculated.
