  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO ADJUST OPERATION OF AN AGRICULTURAL SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20240122110
    Abstract: An agricultural system includes a header with a feed roller configured to engage a crop and to drive material other than grain (MOG) of the crop toward a field. The agricultural system also includes a chopper configured to cut the MOG driven toward the field by the feed roller for discharge from the agricultural system and a control system configured to output a control signal to adjust a speed of the chopper relative to a speed of the feed roller based on a size of the MOG discharged from the agricultural system.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CROP MATERIAL SENSING FOR AN AGRICULTURAL HEADER
    Publication number: 20240122107
    Abstract: An agricultural system includes a header having a row unit with a feed roller configured to engage a crop and to pull a stalk of the crop toward the field. The header also includes a conveyor configured to receive a desirable crop material of the crop from the row unit and to direct the desirable crop material of the crop toward an inlet of the agricultural system. The header further includes a sensor system configured to detect presence of material other than grain (MOG) proximate to or at the conveyor.

  • Single crystalline RbUO3 and method of making and using same
    Patent number: 11661674
    Abstract: The present invention relates to single crystalline RbUO3, hydrothermal growth processes of making such single crystals and methods of using such single crystals. In particular, Applicants disclose single crystalline RbUO3 single crystalline RbUO3 in the Pm-3m space group. Unlike other powdered RbUO3, Applicants' single crystalline RbUO3 has a sufficient crystal size to be characterized and used in the fields of neutron detection, radiation-hardened electronics, nuclear forensics, nuclear engineering photovoltaics, lasers, light-emitting diodes, photoelectrolysis and magnetic applications.
