Abstract: Dishwashing appliances and methods, as provided herein, may include features or steps such as measuring a first pressure in a sump with a pressure sensor and storing the first pressure in a memory of the dishwashing appliance as a reference pressure. Dishwashing appliances and methods may further include features or steps for measuring a second pressure within the sump with the pressure sensor after measuring the first pressure, and determining that a check valve is failed when the second pressure exceeds the first pressure by at least a predetermined margin.

Abstract: Embodiments of a glass-based article including a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface defining a thickness (t) of about 3 millimeters or less (e.g., about 1 millimeter or less), and a stress profile, wherein all points of the stress profile between a thickness range from about 0·t up to 0.3·t and from greater than about 0.7·t up to t, comprise a tangent with a slope having an absolute value greater than about 0.1 MPa/micrometer, are disclosed. In some embodiments, the glass-based article includes a non-zero metal oxide concentration that varies along at least a portion of the thickness (e.g., 0·t to about 0.3·t) and a maximum central tension in the range from about 80 MPa to about 100 MPa. In some embodiments, the concentration of metal oxide or alkali metal oxide decreases from the first surface to a value at a point between the first surface and the second surface and increases from the value to the second surface. The concentration of the metal oxide may be about 0.

Abstract: A method is described that can be used in a radar system. In accordance with one exemplary embodiment, the method includes calculating a first spectrum, which represents a spectrum of a segment of a complex baseband signal. The segment is assignable to a specific chirp of a chirp sequence contained in a first RF radar signal. The method further includes estimating a second spectrum, which represents a spectrum of an interference signal contained in the complex baseband signal, based on a portion of the first spectrum that is assigned to negative frequencies.

Abstract: A sensor assembly includes a mounting portion arranged to support a sensing device, a thermal shunt portion extending from the mounting portion, and a housing portion. The housing portion extends from the thermal shunt portion and is arranged on a side of the thermal shunt portion opposite the mounting portion to limit temperature of a sensor connector fixed to the housing portion of the sensor assembly. Gas turbine engines having sensor assemblies and methods of making sensor assemblies are also described.

Abstract: A recreational vehicle air conditioner and methods of operating a recreational vehicle air conditioner are provided. The recreational vehicle air conditioner may be configured for, and the method may include, receiving a mode selection input comprising one of a thermostat mode and a direct control mode. The recreational vehicle air conditioner may further be configured for, and the method may further include, operating the recreational vehicle air conditioner independently of an external display device when the mode selection input is thermostat mode and operating the recreational vehicle air conditioner in response to one or more commands from the external display device when the mode selection input is direct control mode.

Abstract: A metal shock absorption element having a first metal sheet and a second metal sheet. The first metal sheet is shaped in the form of a longitudinally open metal profile and has a substantially “C”-shaped cross-section. The second metal sheet is shaped in the form of a longitudinally open metal profile and has a substantially “C”-shaped cross section. The second metal sheet is inserted in a first longitudinal channel of the first metal sheet. The second metal sheet is made integral in one single piece with the first metal sheet in a collection of points to create a metal honeycomb structure having a closed cross-section and metal channels.

Abstract: A compressor maintenance monitoring and alert system for use with a compressor comprises a sensor unit including a housing, at least one vibration sensor and/or electrical impulse sensor, and a computer processor. The housing is constructed and arranged for being mounted or electrically coupled to the compressor. A processor of a mobile communication device receives compressor data transmitted by the sensor unit over a period of time, processes the received compressor data, determines if the received compressor data meets or exceeds scheduled maintenance tasks included in the look up tables, and displays required maintenance tasks on a display of the mobile communication device.
