Abstract:
An apparatus for determining a condition parameter of a battery, receives measurement signals related to the battery, determines input data such as electrical impedance from the measurement signals, and provides the input data to a plurality of different prediction algorithms, wherein each prediction algorithm provides a condition parameter estimate. A plurality of condition parameter estimates are then provided to a decision fusion algorithm, allowing a more accurate prediction of the condition parameter.
Abstract:
A chemical formulation for cleaning and treating plastic and other surfaces comprises linseed oil in a concentration of 43%-59% wt.; mineral spirits in a concentration of 41%-57% wt.; and carnauba wax in a concentration of 2%-10% wt. A method of using the chemical formulation comprises applying it the composition to a surface.

Abstract:
Method for processing an article comprising a mixed conducting metal oxide material, which method comprises (a) contacting the article with an oxygen-containing gas and reducing or increasing the temperature of the oxygen-containing gas; (b) when the temperature of the oxygen-containing gas is reduced, reducing the oxygen activity in the oxygen-containing gas; and (c) when the temperature of the oxygen-containing gas is increased, increasing the oxygen activity in the oxygen-containing gas.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for an electrochemical impedance measurement, and in particular circuitry and components employed for such measurements. The system employs an injected broadband AC signal to produce an associated response signal. The subsequent analysis of injected and response signals, considering both magnitude and phase, gives broadband impedance and therefore fluid characteristic information. An embodiment described is relative to a smart oil sensor system suitable for sensing, analyzing and reporting the condition of oil or other liquids used in equipment and machinery.
Abstract:
A beverage container carrier comprises a handle and a plurality of compartments, each compartment adapted to contain at least one beverage container. The handle has a longitudinal axis and defines a central plane which when carried is orientated substantially vertically. Each compartment is disposed relative to the central plane such that a longitudinal axis of the beverage container located in a respective compartment is disposed at an angle to the central plane.

Abstract:
A method of analyzing images of stained slides on a remote client computer connected to a wide area network such as the Internet includes the steps of scanning a stained slide to produce a digital image file of the stained slide and storing the digital image at a first location. An image viewer and analysis program is executed on a client computer in a location remote from the first location. A stored digital image from the first location is transferred to the client computer. A user selects a field from the stored digital image using the image and analysis viewer program. The field is then scored either manually or automatically. A user may also score a section of a field. Multiple fields and/or sections may be scored to achieve an overall score for the slide. A hardcopy report may be generated based on the scoring.
