  • Patent number: 11567000
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of infrared spectrometric measurement of tunnel gas employing a gas measurement system including a gas collection unit, a gas analysis unit and a positioning indication unit for measuring the gas in the tunnel. The method performs sequential steps of installing the gas measurement system, starting the positioning indication unit for positioning one of the detection regions in the tunnel space, sampling the gas in the detection region through the gas collection unit, analyzing the gas by the gas analysis unit, generating a gas analysis result, and determining whether all of the detection regions are completed.

  • Patent number: 10760405
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for imaging semi-three-dimensional rock formation along the borehole sidewall, and a database, a calculation module, and a pattern generation module are included and can be configured in an electronic device. The database continuously fetches the acoustic reflection amplitude data from a high resolution acoustic televiewer (HiRAT), which moves vertically along the borehole. The calculation module performs a mathematical and statistical process on the acoustic reflection amplitude data for the pattern generation module to generate the image of semi-three-dimensional structure of rock formation along the borehole sidewall. Thus, the semi-3D rock formation image provided by the present invention is beneficial for the researcher to easily identify the characteristics of rock formation.

  • Patent number: 6598485
    Abstract: An evaluation device and an evaluation method for detecting quality of concrete structures comprising a conductive impact device, a sensing film, a receiver, an operation device and an auxiliary circuit, the device and the method is characterized by calculating a penetration time of the conductive film before measuring the depth of a crack in the concrete, and the evaluation work which conventionally requires dual receivers only needs now a single receiver for completion of the work. Therefore, cost and works for evaluation and signal analysis are reduced; this largely enhances the evaluation efficiency and technical level.

  • Patent number: 6427393
    Abstract: A structural steel seismic-resistant beam-to-column connection is provided with a pair of rib plates installed symmetrically above and below the connection. The rib plates are perpendicularly to an upper and a lower beam flange and disposed at positions corresponding to the center of the beam web. The rib has a variable cross section at its front end and a relatively lower lengthened section at its rear end. Through the use of the rib plate, the stress concentration at those fan type weld access holes of the beam web as well as the junction of the full penetration weld between the beam flange and column flange can be alleviated, and the plastic hinge can be limited to the beam at a specified portion and can develop excellent plastic rotation capacity in the case of a severe earthquake.
