Abstract: Various aspects and embodiments are directed to a streamlined computer device and a graphical user interface that organizes interface elements into views of computer content for presentation to a user. Various views of digital media content permits users to easily and efficiently access various digital media content. Different views are used to provide an interface that is responsive to configurations of the device and responsive to activity being performed by the user. Aspects include permitting the user to maintain and manage digital media content libraries. According to some embodiments, the libraries comprise user digital media content and references digital media content. Functionality provided to a user can be tailored to the type of content displayed, accessed and/or managed. According to various aspects, methods and systems are provided for accessing and managing digital media libraries on a streamlined computing device with a plurality selectable I/O profiles.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of forming a wind turbine blade. The blade has a main blade module that defines a main body of the blade and includes a first mating feature, e.g. a tongue. The blade also includes a separate edge module that defines at least part of a trailing edge of the blade and includes a second mating feature, e.g. a recess. The method includes applying an adhesive to at least one of the first mating feature and the second mating feature. The method includes arranging the separate edge module relative to the main blade module such that the first and second mating features are mutually adjacent. The method includes applying a pressure force to squeeze the adhesive to bond the first and second mating features together. The pressure force is caused by removing air from, or injecting air into, an air sealed region.

Abstract: Improvements relating to wind turbine blades A wind turbine blade is described that comprises a main blade and one or more separate edge modules attached to the main blade module. The main blade module defines a main body of the blade, and the separate edge module(s) defines at least part of a leading edge or a trailing edge of the blade. A down conductor for a blade lightning protection system is embedded within the edge module.

Abstract: A wind turbine rotor blade lightning receptor arrangement (12) is provided with an electrically conductive block (123) and a shielding component (122). In use, the electrically conductive block (123) forms an electrical bridge between a receptor element (121) of a lightning protection system and a down conductor (15) of the lightning protection system. The electrically conductive block (123) comprises a first engagement surface (124) for, in use, receiving the receptor element (121). The shielding component (122) overlays a portion of the first engagement surface (124) of the electrically conductive block (123), while leaving open an area for receiving the receptor element (121).

Abstract: A rotor blade for a wind turbine comprising: an internal blade cavity defined by two opposing internal surfaces of two shells of the rotor blade; a receptor block forming part of a lightning protection system and disposed within the internal blade cavity; and a centralising device that spaces the receptor block from the two opposing internal surfaces of the shells such that the receptor block lies centrally within the internal blade cavity. The receptor block is therefore in a desired position for installing receptors for lightning discharge.

Abstract: In applications where assisted listening headphones are worn inside of a theater, phase cancellation effects cause the headset wearer to perceive the audio as reduced in volume and distorted. These undesirable phase cancellation effects may be disrupted through preprocessing or real time processing of the headset audio track by summing acoustical noise with the original headset audio track and providing this altered audio track to the headset. The acoustical noise is modulated such that it is imperceptible to the headset wearer while at the same time disrupting undesirable phase cancellation effects, which would otherwise occur if the headset audio track was provided unaltered. Thus, the preprocessing of the headset audio preserves the integrity of the intended headset audio, as perceived by the headset wearer, in headsets worn in a theater environment.

Abstract: An electromagnetic seal is provided for preventing the transmission of electromagnetic energy between corresponding walls of adjoining building modules. The seal includes a first support extending inwardly from an end of a first building module, a second support extending inwardly from an end of a second building module, and a gasket assembly compressed between the first support and the second support.
