Abstract: A system can include a polymer degradant and a nano-protectant. The nano-protectant preferably surrounds (e.g., encloses, encapsulates, etc.) the polymer degradant. The system can optionally be incorporated into a polymeric substance. A method for forming a polymeric nano-protectant can include forming a mixture from a plurality of distinct monomers and polymerizing the plurality of distinct monomers.

Abstract: Systems and methods of driving a nacelle to a target nacelle yaw position are provided in which an auxiliary yaw position control system is coupled to a turbine control unit. The auxiliary yaw position control system receives a first signal representing a current nacelle yaw position and a second signal representing a target nacelle yaw position. The auxiliary yaw position control system determines, based upon the current nacelle yaw position and the target nacelle yaw position, whether and in which direction the nacelle needs to move to be in the target nacelle yaw position and sends nacelle yaw actuation signals to the turbine control unit. If it is safe to accept the nacelle yaw actuation signals, the auxiliary yaw position control system commands the yaw drive so it moves to the target nacelle yaw position.

Abstract: An electrostatic oiling system for use with single blanks in batch systems having an open spray chamber without the need for a negative vacuum chamber. Further, the provided electrostatic oiling system may utilize induction beams and a charge wall that allows for utilization of a smaller vacuum system. Further, the provided electrostatic oiling system may provide variable blank coverage without the need for metered pumps.
