20130119048 | METHOD FOR THE INDUCTION BRAZING OF PARTS HAVING COMPLEX SHAPES, AND SINGLE OR MULTIPLE BRAZING STATION FOR IMPLEMENTING SAME - A method for brazing parts having complex profiles, while enabling reproducible implementation conditions to be defined. The method adjusts a heat cycle during brazing by controlling and mapping heat, while taking emissivity coefficient of the material to be brazed into account. Further, a brazing station includes a power generator configured to supply a predetermined voltage to a transformer connected to a circuit forming a shape inductor, the circuit having an overall shape of the parts to be brazed. A pressure mechanism exerts a load on the parts to be brazed. A camera establishes a heat map. A laser-sighted infrared pyrometer measures the brazing temperature by radiation after parameterizing an emissivity coefficient, other parameters being fixed. A controller supplies a set power to the generator on the basis of the measured temperature. | 05-16-2013 |

This includes the SPPES homopolymer as well as random copolymer of SPPES with various non-sulfonated polysiloxanes. Copolymerization with poly 2-(phenyl ethyl)siloxane greatly improves the mechanical stability of the film compared to a SPPES homopolymer. Proton conductivity of the copolymer, though it is less than that of the homopolymer and Nafion, is comparable to other PEMs in the literature. Both SPPES based membranes show good water retention at temperature greater than 100° C., which indicates they may be suitable for use in high temperature PEM fuel cells. | 04-28-2011 |

20080240861 | Prefabricated levee apparatus and system - A levee apparatus and system for impeding and controlling the flow of fluids, primarily the flow of water as experienced in a flood or storm surge consisting of a light weight concrete structure with reinforcing steel rebar depending on the application. It is constructed from prefabricated sections with the tongue and groove ends designed to fit together which, when used in conjunction with a rubber gasket, will produce a water tight seal. The structure would be hollow with an opening along the unprotected face to provide a location for the surge water to enter. The structure would have flap-gates on the protected side and on the unprotected side. This would allow flood waters from the protected side to push open the flap-gate and exit the protected side based on the pressure equalization of the flood waters. Once inside the structure any water would then drain from the structure through the flap-gate on the unprotected side when the surge water diminishes. The structure could be placed simply on top of the existing soils or anchored in place to prevent potential changes in alignment. Two main modifications to this design include utilization of a rubberized base which would allow the top portion of the structure to rise into position, and the adjustment of the flap-gate position to change the use of the structure from solely a flood protection system to a retention control system. | 10-02-2008 |
