摘要:
A method and an assembly for testing a shipping package are described. The assembly includes a scuff test sub-assembly, a belt burn test sub-assembly, and multiple conveyors positioned between to the sub-assemblies to convey a shipping package through the assembly. The scuff test sub-assembly includes an inclined plane and multiple objects which extend outward from the inclined plane. The belt burn test sub-assembly includes a plate that moves over a portion of one of the conveyors. The plate moves between a first position which obstructs movement of the shipping package but permits movement of the one of the conveyors relative to the shipping package and a second position where movement of the shipping package along the conveyor is not obstructed. At least two of the conveyors meet at a junction to change an orientation of the shipping package as the shipping package is conveyed across the junction.

An apparatus for thermal interface material detection includes a heatsink stack up with a heatsink, a thermal interface material, a heat generating component, and a printed circuit board. The heatsink is disposed on the thermal interface material, the thermal interface material is disposed on the heat generating component, and the heat generating component is disposed on the printed circuit board. A channel in a body of the heatsink is configured for insertion of a compression probe, where a first end of the channel leads to a lower surface of the body of the heatsink and a second end of the channels leads to an upper surface of the body of the heatsink.

A system and method are provided to perform loads-based structural health monitoring (LBSHM) of a dynamical system. The method includes receiving, by at least one computer, sensing data responsive to sensing at least one of a parametrical state and a response of the dynamical system, and determining a Koopman mode and a Koopman eigenvalue. The Koopman mode represents a correlation between the sensor data output by the plurality of sensors. The Koopman eigenvalue represents a frequency component associated with the sensor data and growth or decay of energy associated with the sensor data. The method further includes generating, by the at least one computer, an estimation model to determine a linear estimation based on the Koopman mode and the Koopman eigenvalue that estimates a load response of the dynamical system based on growth or decay of energy associated with the sensor data.

A method and system are described, for the continuous remote monitoring of deformations in a pipeline (10) suitable for the transportation of a pressurized fluids, such as, for example, pipelines designed for the transportation of low- and high-pressure fluids (natural gas, crude oil, water, oil products) that cannot be controlled by using Intelligent Pipeline Inspection Gauge (PIG) systems, or sections of pipeline exposed to the risk of landslides and/or earthquakes in which catastrophic breakages can be generated, with a consequent interruption in the transportation service. The method and system envisage the application of the guided wave technique for the remote-controlled monitoring of the tensional state of the pipeline (10) also on extensive sections, having a length equal to hundreds of meters, using a relatively reduced number of sensors (12) installed on the outer surface of the pipeline (10).

The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for dual resonance frequency enhanced electrostatic force microscopy. One method includes applying an alternating current (AC) bias and a direct current (DC) bias to an atomic force microscopy cantilever, wherein the AC bias has a frequency greater than a fundamental resonance frequency of the cantilever. The method further includes mechanically vibrating the cantilever at a frequency different from the frequency of the AC bias. The method further includes physically and electrostatically scanning a sample in the same pass using the cantilever while vibrating the cantilever and applying the AC and DC biases to the cantilever, and generating a topology image of the sample from the physical scanning and an electrostatic image of charged material under or on a surface of the sample from the electrostatic scanning.

An analytical method and container for measuring the soap content in black liquor. The method includes: a first step where a defined amount of black liquor is arranged in the container, a second step where the black liquor is centrifuged and a soap concentrate is gathered in the upper part of the container, a third step where the amount of soap concentrate is determined, and a fourth step where the soap content is calculated. By centrifuging the black liquor soap concentrated with a soap content of 58-62% is obtained, which enables measurement of the dry matter with an accuracy of ±2% within a very short time period. The container includes a neck with scale marks and a lower part. In one embodiment, the analytical method includes a fifth step where a modification of the calculated soap content is made with consideration to the density of the black liquor.
