    • Wet and dry film thickness can be measured non-invasively on structures, such as surfaces associated with vessels, aircraft and buildings, using calibrated microwave sensors. The film is measured by directing microwave energy toward the film. The microwave energy passes through the film and is reflected by a reflective or semi-reflective substrate surface below the film. Properties of the reflected wave are compared with properties of reflected waves that were passed through calibration samples of known thicknesses to determine the unknown thickness of the film. In some embodiments, one or more sensors are maintained at a fixed altitude above the conductive/semi-conductive substrate for measurement, and in other embodiments, one or more sensors are maintained at a fixed altitude above the film. In one embodiment, sensors are associated with a coating applicator, with a first sensor preceding the applicator and a second sensor following the applicator to measure the thickness of the film applied by the applicator by comparing measurements before and after coating.
    • 使用校准的微波传感器可以非结构地测量湿和干膜厚度,例如与船只,飞机和建筑物相关的表面等结构上。 通过将微波能量引向胶片来测量胶片。 微波能量通过膜并被膜下面的反射或半反射的衬底表面反射。 将反射波的性质与通过已知厚度的校准样品的反射波的性质进行比较,以确定膜的未知厚度。 在一些实施例中,一个或多个传感器被保持在用于测量的导电/半导体衬底上方的固定高度处,并且在其他实施例中,一个或多个传感器保持在胶片上方的固定高度。 在一个实施例中,传感器与涂布器相关联,第一传感器位于施用器之前,第二传感器跟随施加器,以通过比较涂覆之前和之后的测量来测量施用器施加的膜的厚度。

    • A time-temperature indicator indicates the useful shelf life of an associated product which may be affected by the passage of time and an applied temperature. A creeping material has a first end connected to a first fixed location and a second end connected to a load applying device such as a spring. In response to application of the load applying device, the passage of time, and the application of various temperatures, the creeping material will increase in length in a known manner. An indicator associated with the creeping material indicates whether the passage of time and application of various temperatures have caused the associated product to exceed its useful shelf life.
    • 时间温度指示器指示可能受时间和施加温度影响的相关产品的有用保质期。 蠕变材料具有连接到第一固定位置的第一端和连接到诸如弹簧的负载施加装置的第二端。 响应于施加施加载荷的装置,时间的流逝和各种温度的应用,蠕变材料的长度将以已知的方式增加。 与蠕变材料相关的指示器是否指示时间的流逝和各种温度的应用是否导致相关产品超过其有用的保质期。

    • A non-contact, distance traveled measurement system (DTMS) to calculate speed and distance traveled by a vehicle over rails—more specifically, by trains traveling on standard railroad tracks. Preferably, a pair of short range (near field) microwave-based transmitters/sensors (transceivers) are mounted on the underside of the train and used to key on rail-bed features such as cross ties or tie plates. Preferred embodiments also include infrared sensors as a redundant channel that is less sensitive to moisture in the track bed. Data from the sensors is correlated to determine the time delay between the first and second sensors' passage over objects on the rail bed such as cross-ties or tie-plates. From this time delay, nearly instantaneous velocity can be computed at each given target such as a tie plate (metal target) or a tie (dielectric contrast target). Velocity versus time curves can be integrated over time to derive distance traveled.
