20140252210 | PROXIMITY SENSOR - A proximity sensor for detecting non-contact detection of a target using a fibre optic strain sensor and a system for operating multiple such proximity sensors is disclosed. The proximity sensor includes an optic fibre that has an optic fibre strain sensor that is coupled to a mass that moves in response to the target. The mass can be a magnet that moves when a ferrous target is within the magnetic field of the magnet causing the magnet to move and apply strain to the optic fibre strain sensor. The optic strain sensor can include periodic variation in the refractive index of the optic fibre, such as a fibre Bragg grating. The proximity sensor can include a second fibre optic sensor that is sensitive to temperature or a second fibre optic strain sensor coupled to a second magnet that operates in opposition to the first magnet. A system coupling multiple proximity sensors can include an interrogator that has an optical power source and a detector, each coupled to a processor. The processor compares frequency information from the proximity sensor to a threshold to determine whether a target is in proximity to its corresponding proximity sensor. | 09-11-2014 |

20150369760 | METHOD OF ELECTRON BEAM DIFFRACTION ANALYSIS - A method is provided for analysing electron backscatter diffraction data generated from a sample material. An image data set representative of an image of electron backscatter diffraction bands is obtained from the sample material. A set of estimated first diffraction parameters is then generated, these defining individual electron backscatter diffraction bands in the image data set. A candidate phase is then selected together with a respective orientation for the material, based upon the generated set of estimated parameters thereby identifying diffraction bands in the image data set. Second diffraction parameters of the identified diffraction bands are simulated for the candidate phase according to the respective orientation. These second diffraction parameters are then adjusted for the identified simulated bands so as to fit the simulated bands to the bands in the image data. A fitted orientation for the candidate phase is then calculated together with a corresponding fitting parameter defining the quality of fit. | 12-24-2015 |

20140107990 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING FRICTION COEFFICIENT .mu. FOR AN AIRCRAFT LANDING EVENT - Method and system of determining ground-to-tyre friction coefficient for an aircraft landing event. The method uses an aircraft computational model to repeatedly model the landing event, varying one or more initial conditions of the aircraft model until a best match between a modelled value and a provided value of aircraft vertical acceleration is determined. The method uses initial conditions associated with the best match of modelled and provided vertical acceleration values and a strain value from a sensor on the aircraft landing gear, with the ground-to-tyre friction coefficient is a variable. The method models the landing gear to generate a modelled strain value and compares this with the measured strain value, and repeats the landing gear modelling step with a different value for the ground-to-tyre friction coefficient until a best match between the modelled strain value and the measured strain value is determined and outputting the respective friction coefficient value. | 04-17-2014 |
