Abstract: A system includes sensors for transmitting data on a low power and/or short range transmission link, and one or more coordinators in wireless communication with the sensors. The coordinators convert signals received via the low power and/or short range transmission link to a longer range transmission link. A base station is in wireless communication with the coordinators via the longer range transmission link so that data generated by the sensors is transferred to the base station via the coordinators.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a method and apparatus for investigating the uniformity of concrete and/or grout. Embodiments can identify the existence of one or more anomalies in the uniformity of concrete and/or grout, and/or determine or estimate the size, shape, type, and/or location of one or more anomalies in the uniformity of concrete and/or grout. Embodiments can utilize a string of temperature measuring sensors placed within one or more access bore(s), such as tube(s), positioned at least partially within the concrete and/or positioned proximate the concrete. The measurements obtained from the temperature measuring sensors can then be used to assist in the identification of existence of, size of, type of, shape of, and/or location of anomalies in the concrete and/or grout.

Abstract: A power socket temperature alarm device includes a casing, a power socket module received in the casing, a plurality of temperature detection elements, a processing circuit module, at least a lighting alarm element, and at least a sound alarm element. The temperature detection elements are set in contact with the power socket module and the temperature detection elements are in information connection with the processing circuit module. The processing circuit module is operatively connected with the lighting alarm element (for indicating the site of a hazard) and the sound alarm element (for giving off a signal of the hazard). When the power socket module receives a plug inserted therein and supplies electrical power thereto, the temperature will be gradually increased and the temperature detection elements are separately activated. Status variation of the temperature detection elements activates the processing circuit module to give off flashing light and mutually different sounds.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems are provided for measuring the supply of a consumable product/energy source, such as electrical power, to a facility over time and analyzing the measurements to determine the consumption or supply of the product by one or more loads and/or sources in the facility, and to determine induced and residual heat flow through the facility's envelope. Various aspects compare the measured supply of the consumable product to a database of consumption signatures, which characterize access to the consumable product by particular users. Operating conditions and facility characteristics, such as temperatures, load factors, insulation factors, etc., may be further considered in determining a particular user's access of the consumable product. To aid in the controlling of energy use, thermal resistance factors of the building are determined, which are based on the induced and residual heat flow through the facility.
