摘要： A system for detecting the formation of a crack in a metal joint includes an electrochemical electrical current detection device. Carrier material surrounds the metal joint, at least partially, with conductive media having electrolyte therein. An auxiliary electrode is in electrical contact with the carrier material. The placement of the auxiliary electrode in electrical contact with carrier material forms a passive layer on the metal joint. The formation of a crack in the metal joint ruptures the passive layer to generate a current for detection by the electrochemical electrical current detection device.

摘要： An electrochemical cell has an active alloy anode including an active alloy and a passive alloy cathode including a passive alloy with the active alloy having a higher reduction potential than the passive alloy within growth media. The active alloy anode and the passive alloy cathode are positioned to drive a plurality of transport ions into a plant in some embodiments to enhance plant growth and to kill weeds in other embodiments.

摘要： A plant is in growth media having an aqueous solution having an electrolyte with a plurality of charged coloring agents therein. An electrochemical cell has a first electrode inserted into the growth media and a second electrode inserted into the plant with the first electrode being coupled to the second electrode to form a potential difference therebetween. The potential difference drives the plurality of charged coloring agents from the growth media into the plant to color the plant.

摘要： The graphitization of a sample having a sample surface and bulk material adjacent to the sample surface is determined with a housing holding a potentiometer and a processor connected to the potentiometer. The processor receives electric potential measurements from the potentiometer at the sample surface and uses the electric potential measurements to quantify the graphitization of the bulk material adjacent to the sample surface to generate graphitization data for output.
