Abstract: A realistic three-dimensional replica casting of naturally occurring samples of wood, rock and marine specimens produces realistic appearing landscape or indoor light modules that can simulate flickering candles in nightclubs and restaurants. The method employs a two-part barrier mold technique enabling production of an exact copy of the whole, full bodied, original specimen and includes a lamp unit pattern for creating a three dimensional space for containing a lamp module that is positioned adjacent a relatively flat face of the replica of the natural specimen. The final casting is made of fortified cement that is permanently stained with metallic salts in an HCL solution producing the desired coloration matching that of the original specimen while masking the color of the concrete. The replica is solid and heavy and need not be attached to the ground during outdoor use to maintain it in place, due to the weight of the concrete.

Abstract: The invention encompasses a removable strain gauge fixture, and a method for measuring accumulated stress in a structural component, such as a railroad rail. The strain gauge fixture generally comprises first and second side pieces connected by a strain concentrating bar of reduced cross-section, an electronic strain sensor mounted on the bar, and first and second tapered pins extending from the front faces of each of the side pieces. The tapered pins transmit accumulated strain from the component being measured to the strain focusing bar when the pins are inserted into mating holes in the component. The method of the invention generally comprises the steps of providing a pair of holes in the component mateable with the tapered pins of the strain gauge fixture, inserting the tapered pins into the holes of the material in order to transfer accumulated strain in the material to the strain concentrating bar, taking a first strain measurement via the strain sensor on the bar, removing the tapered pins from the material, and taking a second strain reading from the strain sensor.
