Patent number: 10791657Abstract: Improved methods and devices for shielding electrical and electronic aircraft components and their associated cables and wires from cross-coupling and electrical and magnetic interference and dissipating excess heat from the electrical and electronic aircraft components and cables and wires. An aircraft structure formed primarily of composite materials includes an outer wall; an inner wall; and a plurality of spaced-apart dividers extending transversely from and integrally formed with the inner wall. The dividers define a series of spaced-apart channels that are each partially enclosed by adjacent pairs of the dividers. A layer of electrically conductive foil covers the dividers and the channels to create a current return network in the channels. Wires and cables may be placed in the channels between adjacent pairs of the dividers to reduce cross-coupling between the wires and cables and shield the wires and cables from electromagnetic fields.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2020Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: Aerion International Property Management CorporationInventor: Edward Barnes

Patent number: 10734640Abstract: Much improved energy storage is provided by exploiting the phase transition between different states or phases of a condensed matter “working material.” Such phases constitute the high energy “charged” and low energy “discharged” state of the battery. The two phases conduct electricity in a different manner. This is reflected by different chemical potentials that determine the open circuit voltage of the battery. Such a battery can have an energy density that easily exceeds that of current chemical batteries and super capacitors.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2018Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: Polymorph Quantum EnergyInventor: Stewart Edward Barnes

Patent number: 8531516Abstract: This invention relates to measuring the light that is scattered from particulates (aerosols) in a gas or liquid. The sample typically flows into the instrument and the particulates are measured in-situ. The intensity of the scattered light is measured at many different angles, which determines both the amount of particulates in the sample, and detailed information about the particles such as average size, shape and composition. The measurement can be applied to climate and air pollution research, and clean room monitoring.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2010Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: The United States of America as Represented by the Secretary of CommerceInventor: John Edward Barnes

Patent number: 7551851Abstract: A system and methods are provided for communicating optical signals in a multipath optical network, such as ring network architecture. The system and methods provided are operable to bypass a faulty node in the optical network under various conditions. Faulty nodes may be associated with various failures, such as equipment failure, power failure, etc. The system and methods utilize an apparatus for communicating optical signals to adjacent nodes, bypassing the failed node, when a certain amount of power is provided to the node or apparatus. The system and methods utilize an apparatus for communicating optical signals to equipment located at an associated node when an amount of power is not provided to the node or apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2005Date of Patent: June 23, 2009Assignee: Cox Communications, Inc.Inventors: Mark Edward Zirnheld, Karl Benedict, Michael Allen Jaskowiak, Randall Edward Barnes, Karol Jan Wojcik, Mark Ray Boomer, Michael D.
