摘要： A wind turbine shaft includes tubes that are centered on a longitudinal axis, coupled to rotate together about the axis, and movable telescopically along the axis between a retracted condition and an extended condition. A mounting structure is configured to mount wind turbine vanes on the tubular structure when the tubes are in the extended condition. A generator has a pair of parts including a rotor and a stator, and is configured for coupling with the tubular structure for one of the parts to rotate about the axis with the tubular structure while the other part is stationary.

摘要： A quarter wave coaxial cavity resonator for producing corona discharge plasma from is presented. The quarter wave coaxial cavity resonator has a folded cavity made of opposing concentric cavity members that are nested together to form a continuous cavity ending in a aperture. A center conductor with a tip is positioned in the cavity. The folded cavity advantageously permits the coaxial cavity resonator to resonate at a lower operating frequency than an unfolded quarter wave coaxial cavity resonator of the same length. Embodiments of the quarter wave coaxial cavity resonator use narrower apertures to reduce radiative losses, and include center conductors that are reactive load elements, such as helical coils. When a radio frequency (RF) oscillation is produced in the quarter wave coaxial cavity resonator, corona discharge plasma is formed at the tip of the center conductor. The corona discharge plasma can be used to ignite combustible materials in combustion chambers of combustion engines.

摘要翻译： 提出了一种用于产生电晕放电等离子体的四分之一波长的同轴谐振腔。 四分之一波同轴腔谐振器具有由相对的同心腔构件制成的折叠空腔，其嵌套在一起以形成终止于孔中的连续空腔。 具有尖端的中心导体位于空腔中。 折叠腔有利地允许同轴空腔谐振器在比相同长度的展开的四分之一波长的同轴谐振腔更低的工作频率下谐振。 四分之一波长同轴腔谐振器的实施例使用较窄的孔径以减少辐射损耗，并且包括作为无功负载元件（例如螺旋线圈）的中心导体。 当在四分之一波同轴腔谐振器中产生射频（RF）振荡时，在中心导体的尖端处形成电晕放电等离子体。 电晕放电等离子体可用于点燃内燃机燃烧室中的可燃材料。

摘要： In one embodiment, a processor can operate in multiple modes, including a direct execution mode and an emulation execution mode. More specifically, the processor may operate in a partial emulation model in which source instruction set architecture (ISA) instructions are directly handled in the direct execution mode and translated code generated by an emulation engine is handled in the emulation execution mode. Embodiments may also provide for efficient transitions between the modes using information that can be stored in one or more storages of the processor and elsewhere in a system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要： A non-invasive method for determining and characterizing the presence of damage or abnormalities resulting from or concomitant with systemic hypertension in subject. This method is comprised of the acquisition of ocular image(s) and subsequent evaluation, classification and/or interpretation of these image(s). The ocular image(s) may be acquired by photography. Evaluation, classification, and/or interpretation may be automated or involve the active participation of a human. The ocular images may be classified into either a normal or clinical group or compared to an algorithm of hypertensive symptoms. The ocular images may, additionally, be processed and have the pertinent characteristics extracted to make the classification more exact.

摘要： A method of monitoring a subject for medical conditions includes causing light to impinge on at least one eye of the subject, directing reflected light from such light beam to photosensors, converting the received reflected light to corresponding electrical signals which are delivered to a processor. Processing the signals by effecting a comparison between stored information regarding the medical condition and the data provided by the monitoring to determine if an undesired medical condition exists and, if so, communicating such result. The cycle is repeated at predetermined intervals which may be short or prolonged. The stored information may be information relating to the specific subject or general information regarding normal and abnormal conditions of the eye representative of toxicity. The eyes may be monitored sequentially or simultaneously. Related apparatus is provided.

摘要： A panel, preferably a ceiling panel, for an arc resistant cabinet defines at least one flap dimensioned and configured to bend outward in response to excessive pressure within the cabinet. The flap is bent into a position wherein it will direct high temperature, expanding gases exiting the cabinet away from areas where personnel are likely to be located. The panel also includes a frame below the flap, thereby permitting the entire panel, including the flap, to support the weight of people working on top of the cabinet.

摘要： A vector processing system which uses vector masks to determine whether or not to perform operations on operands corresponding to bit positions within the mask is disclosed. An approximation of the number of no-operation representative bits in a vector mask register is made, and such bits are skipped to improve the performance of vector mask based operations. The number of consecutive no-op representative bits, as represented by zero values, skipped is a power of two to simplify the circuitry and logic involved in skipping such operations.

摘要： An axial vane rotary device (14) includes a stator (16) with a cylindrical internal chamber (34) defined an annular outer wall (40) and two side walls (36, 38) of the stator. Each side wall has an annular cam surface (42, 44). A rotor (54) is rotatably mounted within the chamber. The rotor has an annular outer wall (66) and a plurality of angularly spaced-apart, axially extending slots (64) extending therethrough. A vane (68) is slidably received in each slot. The vanes reciprocate axially and alternatively expand and compress spaces between adjacent vanes and the cam surfaces as the rotor rotates. The cam surfaces have alternating first portions (92) and second portions (90). The second portions are further from the rotor than the second portions. The first portions of one said cam surface are aligned with second portions of another said cam surface. The slots extend radially outwards on the rotor to the annular outer wall thereof. The outer edge of each vane slidably engages the annular outer wall of the stator. The outer wall of the stator may have a guide cam (96) and the vanes may each have a follower (98) received by the guide cam. The guide cam is shaped to came the vanes to reciprocate axially with respect to the rotor as the rotor rotates. Each of the vanes may have resiliently biased first seals (110, 112) extending along the inner edge (106) and second seals (134) along side edges (70, 72) thereof.
