Abstract: A power generation/distribution system includes a RAM air turbine (RAT) generator and an emergency integrated control center (EICC) that selectively applies either primary power provided by a primary power source or emergency power developed by the RAT generator to an alternating current essential bus (AC ESS bus) for distribution to one or more essential loads. The EICC monitors the primary power and in response to a loss of primary power selectively disables the supply of power from the AC ESS bus to the essential loads and manages subsequent loading of the RAT generator by the essential loads.

Abstract: The present invention is a novel method for producing real-time colorized, contrast enhanced images from a sequence of grey-scale video images obtained during diagnostic ultrasound. The particular colorizing scheme varies according to which information parameter is desired to be displayed in real-time. The information parameters used to colorize a segment of video images include: time-to-arrival, duration of brightening, and absolute brightening. Time-to-arrival colorization depicts the time that a given pixel achieves a given intensity threshold. Duration of brightening depicts the time that a given pixel's intensity stays above a given threshold. Absolute brightening depicts various threshold values obtained by the region's pixels.
