    摘要: Disclosed aspects pertain to surface analysis based on wearable sensor data. Sensor data can be acquired from pressure-sensitive wearable sensors, such as shoe insole sensors, based on interaction with a surface. A location can also be determined for the sensor data with respect to a surface utilizing a positioning system. The sensor data can be utilized to determine surface properties at a particular location. Further, a graphical representation of the surface properties and location can be generated and conveyed for display on a display. Furthermore, movement instructions can be provided to aid in analysis of an entire surface, and recommendations can be made regarding surface maintenance based on collected sensor data.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for including obtaining raw surface data for present values of torque (TTD) generated by a top drive operably coupled with a drillstring, obtaining raw surface data for present values of rotational speed (ω) of the top drive corresponding to the TTD, obtaining inertia (JTD) of the top drive, and estimating torque TST of the drillstring based on the obtained TTD data, the obtained data, and the obtained JTD data. The estimated drillstring torque TST may be utilized to determine a surface torque oscillation performance index (STOPI).

    摘要: A torque transmitter for a torque sensor for measuring a torque on a shaft includes a carrier plate that includes a plurality of sensor element carrier plate regions, on each of which at least one sensor element for recording magnetic field changes is arranged, and an enclosure region formed in a substantially annular shape to enclose the shaft around a circumference of the shaft. The plurality of sensor element carrier plate regions are perpendicularly connected to the enclosure region and arranged radially within the enclosure region by being spaced apart along a circumferential direction around the circumference of the shaft.

    摘要: Embodiments within the scope of the present disclosure are directed to external sensor kits that may be included in new injection molds or retrofitted into existing injection molds in order to approximate conditions within a mold, such as pressure or the location of a melt flow front. Such kits are designed to amplify meaningful measurements obtained by the external sensor kit so that noise measurements do not prevent the approximation of conditions within a mold. In some embodiments within the scope of the present disclosure, an external sensor kit includes a strain gauge sensor, a coupon, a support bracket, and a hammer. The strain gauge sensor is placed on a surface of the coupon and measures the strain in the coupon.

    摘要: A system for monitoring the installation status of shank attachment members of an agricultural implement includes a shank assembly having a shank extending between a proximal end and a distal end opposite the distal end, with the proximal end of the shank being configured to be coupled to a portion of the agricultural implement. The shank assembly also includes a shank attachment member configured to be coupled to the distal end of the shank. The system further includes a load sensor provided in operative association with the shank assembly and being configured to generate data indicative of a load transmitted through the shank assembly. In addition, the system includes a computing system communicatively coupled to the load sensor, with the computing system being configured to determine an installation status of the shank attachment member relative to the shank based on the data received from the load sensor.

    摘要: A residual stress measurement method of a curved surface block includes steps of: locating a point at which a to-be-detected curved surface of a curved surface block has a highest curvature as a to-be-detected point; applying an instrument integrating an X-ray light resource and a detector, measuring the to-be-detected point by using an X-ray diffraction theory, and analyzing and calculating, in combination with a sin2 Ψ method, a strain value measured by using the instrument; and calculating, in combination with material property measurement data of the curved surface block material, a residual stress by introducing a curved surface block residual stress calculation model.

    摘要: A system and method of monitoring forces exerted at multiple locations on a mover includes multiple sensors, where each sensor is mounted at one of the locations. Each sensor detects an operating condition of the mover at the location on the mover at which it is mounted. The sensors may include accelerometers, strain gauges, or a combination thereof. Each strain gauge is mounted proximate to an area of interest on the mover. Each strain gauge generates a feedback signal corresponding to a deformation of the material measured at the location of the sensor. From the measured deformation of material, a force acting on the mover at the location of the sensor may be determined. The forces exerted at the different locations on the mover may be monitored in real time to determine bearing performance or monitored over a duration of time to observer changes in bearing performance over that duration.
