Abstract: A deformation detection apparatus includes a cell movement-control assembly to handle a linear motion and a rotational motion of a battery cell, a body that supports the cell movement-control assembly, a digital micrometer, and control circuitry. The control circuitry controls a displacement of the battery cell between a first position and a second position along a longitudinal axis through a scanning region of the digital micrometer and a plurality of rotational positions of the battery cell at a plurality of charge states and a plurality of discharge states. The control circuitry measures a plurality of outer diameter values of the battery cell for a plurality of linear positions and a plurality of rotational positions along the longitudinal axis of the battery cell and determines a change in a geometrical shape (deformation and/or strain) of the battery cell for the plurality of linear positions and the plurality of rotational positions.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is shown for measuring diameter of sucker rods during reworking of an oil well. Diameters are compared to known data tables to determine if a sucker rod should be replaced. If undue wear has occurred to the guides, the sucker rod will be replaced. If wear is excessive, additions guides will be added to the replacement sucker rod.

Abstract: A course estimator has a first estimating means, a second estimating means and a determining means. The first estimating means obtains first information and estimating a first radius of a first forward traveling path on the basis of the obtained first information, the first forward traveling path being a part of a forward traveling path to which a vehicle is going to travel. The second estimating means obtains second information and estimating a second radius of a second forward traveling path on the basis of the obtained second information, the second forward traveling path being a part of the forward traveling path to which a vehicle is going to travel, the second forward traveling path being farther from the vehicle than the first traveling being. The determining means determines whether or not there is a changing point where road shapes change between the first forward traveling path and the second forward traveling path on the basis of comparison of the estimated first radius and the estimated second radius.

Abstract: A device includes a first sensor for making a radial measurement of a tubular component and a support which can drive the first sensor in a circular trajectory in a predefined plane orthogonal to the principal axis of the component. The support includes a principal body that can be attached to the component by a releasable attachment mechanism and a rotary shaft onto which an arm carrying the first sensor is attached to allow displacement of the first sensor in a circular trajectory inside or about the component. The device further includes a second sensor for measuring an angular position of the first sensor for each of its radial measurements, the radial and angular measurements obtained allowing the profile of the component in the predefined plane to be determined.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for adjusting wheel diameter by acquiring a current wheel diameter distribution vector; calculating similarity scores between the current wheel diameter distribution vector and known wheel diameter distribution vector clusters to determine a potential wear rate of the current wheel diameter distribution vector; calculating similarity scores between candidate target wheel diameter distribution vectors and the known wheel diameter distribution vector clusters to determine a potential wear rates of the candidate target wheel diameter distribution vectors; and selecting a target wheel diameter distribution vector from the candidate target wheel diameter distribution vectors, such that the reduction of potential wear rate achieved by switching the current wheel diameter distribution vector to the target wheel diameter distribution vector meets a predetermined condition. Future potential wear rates and the amount of grinding required during train maintenance can be optimized through changing wheel diameter distribution vectors.
