Abstract: A method for use in measuring a property of an environment or an object in, or adjacent to, an elongated space (10), comprises unspooling and/or spooling a line (6) attached to a tool (4) so as to move the tool along an elongated space. The method may comprise using the tool to measure a property of an environment or an object in, or adjacent to, an elongated space during movement of the tool along the elongated space. The method may comprise, determining an acceleration of the line, measuring an acceleration of the tool along the elongated space, and controlling damping of the movement of the tool along the elongated space according to the measured acceleration of the tool and the determined acceleration of the line. The elongated space may be located downhole or may be defined in, or adjacent to, an oil or gas well.

Abstract: A method of determining a depth of a hole formed in a work piece is disclosed. The method includes determining the hole depth based upon a load signal indicative of a load on a tool forming the hole during the forming of the hole. The hole depth determined is then adjusted with an offset and component specifications are combined with the hole length to determine a component specification for use in the hole to fix components together. At least a part of the depth determination and component specification can be carried out automatically in a computer, for an array of holes.

Abstract: A system is provided for measuring a thickness of a rubber layer of a tire. The layer includes a joined face, which is joined to an adjacent metallic reinforcement, and a free face in contact with air. The system includes a casing with an application face for contacting the free face, and a sensor positioned in the casing and structured to measure a distance d between the joined face and the free face. The sensor includes a source coil element, which is a source of an alternating magnetic field, and a sensitive coil element, which is an element sensitive to a variation in a magnetic flux density in a vicinity of the source coil element. A frequency and an excitation power of the source coil element are such that the magnetic flux density between the adjacent metallic reinforcement and the source coil element increases as the distance d decreases.

Abstract: A system for measuring a thickness of a layer of rubber material of a tyre includes a sensor. The layer includes a joined face, which is joined to an adjacent metal reinforcement, and a free face, which is in contact with air. The sensor, which measures a distance d between the joined face and the free face, includes a source of a static magnetic field and a sensitive element whose output signal is a function of a level of a local magnetic field. The sensor is positioned in such a way that a magnetic field strength measured by the sensitive element varies when the distance d decreases.

Abstract: A step drill test structure for a PCB and method for using the same is disclosed. In one embodiment, a test structure includes a drill path and a connection via. The drill path may include sensing pads on selected ones of a plurality of layers of the PCB (e.g., the non-surface layers). The sensing pads of a given drill path may be electrically conductive, while the remaining portion of the drill path is non-conductive. The sensing pads of each drill path may be electrically coupled to the connection via. The depth of a given layer at a particular drill path may be determined by drilling, using an electrically conductive drill bit, into the drill path and determining when an electrical connection is made between the drill bit and the connection via.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for locating objects enclosed in a medium, according to which a detection signal is generated by at least one capacitive sensor device. Said detection signal penetrates the medium that is to be analyzed in such a way that information is obtained about the objects that are enclosed in the medium by evaluating the detection signal, particularly by measuring impedance. According to the invention, in order to evaluate the detection signal, an algorithm is used that separates the measured signal into signal parts originating from the enclosing medium and signal parts originating from the object enclosed in the medium. The invention also relates to a measuring device for carrying out the inventive method.
