摘要:
The present invention relates to a damper for damping the reactionary motion of a wave energy conversion device to wave motion, comprising a damping energy absorber (7) having a reversible non-linear stress-strain response, arranged to damp the reactionary motion of the WEC. According to a first aspect, there is provided a damping structure (2) for a wave energy conversion device (1). The structure comprises a fixed member (6), and a damping member (7) having a reversible non-linear stress-strain response. The present invention also relates to a mooring component (2) for a mooring system (1) and to a method for manufacturing a mooring component (2). The component comprises a deformable element (6) having a reversible non-linear stress-strain response, wherein the response is a composite reversible non-linear stress-strain response.
摘要:
A clamp comprises two members (12, 14), each of which has a plurality of clamping locations. The clamping locations are configured such that the clamp is able to act against articles of various sizes and shapes. In particular, the clamp has an open region (66) within which curved and irregularly shaped articles can be clamped.
摘要:
A portable, disposable, and self-contained medical device for the production and delivery of therapeutic light to the blood transmitted through the non-ocular skin surface. The light is generated by a chemiluminescent dye configured to radiate light in the specific wavelength required by a particular phototherapy treatment. The wavelength of light emitted by this planar device is such that some disorders of health requiring phototherapy are effectively treated. Disorders falling into this category include elevated bilirubin jaundice, circadian rhythm anomalies, mood disorders and potentially a reduction in injury or surgically related bruise healing time.
