Abstract: A method for measuring noise is disclosed. The method includes a sound pressure measurement step for measuring sound pressure information from a noise source with a sound pressure sensor. The method further includes a distance determination step for determining distance determinant information indicative of distance between the noise source and the sound pressure sensor. The sound pressure measurement step and the distance determination step are executed in an unmanned aerial measurement apparatus. The unmanned aerial measurement apparatus includes an unmanned aerial vehicle. The method includes controlling flight of the unmanned aerial measurement apparatus. A related unmanned aerial measurement apparatus is also disclosed.

Abstract: An analyser includes an analyser body, a sensor part and a connection between the sensor part and the analyser body. The connection includes a fluid connection and a mechanical connection including a first connecting surface having a first perimeter structure and a second perimeter structure within the first perimeter structure; and a second connecting surface having a third perimeter structure and a fourth perimeter structure within the third perimeter structure. The first perimeter structure forms a first mechanical connection with the third perimeter structure and the second perimeter structure forms a second mechanical connection with the fourth perimeter structure. The fluid connection is provided within the second mechanical connection.

Abstract: A fluid analyser includes an analyser casing having a casing wall or walls, at least one fluid sensor for analysing fluid, a fluid inlet arrangement for supplying fluid into the fluid analyser, and one or more fluid conduits for conducting fluid between the fluid inlet arrangement and one or more of the at least one fluid sensors. The fluid analyser further includes at least part of the one or more fluid conduits being provided inside the casing wall or walls.

Abstract: A data communication system includes a centralized server arrangement coupled via a communication network arrangement to a plurality of client devices. The centralized server arrangement and the plurality of client devices exchange data. The system allocates the data into a primary type of data and at least a secondary type of data. The primary data is communicated substantially immediately within the system, and the at least secondary data is communicated in the system in association with corresponding acknowledgements (ACK) in response to receipt and processing of the at least secondary type of data at one or more of the client devices. At least one of the one or more client devices is optionally a wireless-enabled mobile communication device or a wirelessly-connected personal computer (PC).

Abstract: A load measuring device for measuring a load acting on an elastically deformable member, has a distance sensor for measuring a length change in response to a deformation of the deformable member under a load. The sensor has a sensing element and a reference element arranged such that a portion of the elastically deformable member is interposed between the sensing element and the reference element. For paper manufacturing or finishing, two members between which the load is measured are cooperating rolls, at least one of which is provided with an elastic cover. One of the rolls includes the sensing element and the other roll includes the reference element. Alternatively, the two members are a roll and a cooperating belt, one having an elastic cover. Also, the sensing element and the reference element may be formed in one and the same member.
