  • Publication number: 20230373563
    Abstract: An integrated energy absorbing system of a vehicle with a front integrated energy absorbing casting and a back integrated energy absorbing casting. Each front and back casting is a single unified casting that makes up the integrated energy absorbing system. Ribbed sections such as “I” sections and “C” sections make up the castings and are formed from a variety of different techniques and/or formings such as cutout, waveform profile, tapering, flaring and/or rib spacing. Additional sections such as closed section castings may also be integrated in the integrated energy absorbing system.

  • Publication number: 20220260655
    Abstract: A magnetic particle imaging system that includes a magnetic field generating system with at least one magnet and providing a gradient magnetic field within an observation region such that the gradient magnetic field has a dynamic field-free region (FFR) for an object under observation having strongly-interacting magnetic particles distributed therein. The magnetic field generating system also includes a drive field and a slow shift field that dynamically shifts the FFR across a field of view (FOV) within the observation region, where the trajectory of the drive field accommodates for a coercivity of the strongly-interacting magnetic particles by ensuring that the particles in the FOV are saturated to a full coercivity field prior to traversing to an opposite-polarity of coercivity. The magnetic particle imaging system also includes a detection system proximate the observation region and configured to detect a signal from the strongly-interacting magnetic particles.

  • Patent number: 10634742
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for a system configured to characterize a magnetic response of a sample. The system can comprise an electrical source configured to generate a time-varying current supply, an excitation coil system coupled to the electrical source to generate a time-vary magnetic field for application to a sample, and a sensing coil system that senses a magnetic response of the sample in response to the time-varying magnetic field. The sensing coil system can comprise a pick-up coil and a balancing coil that can be translated or rotated. The balancing coil configured to cancel a feed-through induction signal. In another embodiment, the sensing coil system can comprise an adjustable fine-tuning coil that is configured to modify an effect of the cancellation of the feed-through induction signal.
