  • Electrical network representation of a distributed system
    Patent number: 8264246
    Abstract: A method for determining characteristics of a multi-material object is provided. The method includes producing a rotating electric field by providing an applied electrical signal set of individual electrical signal patterns to electrodes surrounding the multi-material object. The method also includes obtaining a measured electrical signal of electrical signals from the electrodes corresponding to each electrical signal pattern applied. An electrical network is determined based on the applied electrical signal set, the measured electrical signal set and an inverse of the applied electrical signal set. The method further includes determining the characteristics of the multi-material object by analyzing the electrical network.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: September 11, 2012
    Assignee: General Electric Company
    Inventors: Sakethraman Mahalingam, Manoj Kumar Koyithitta Meethal, Arijit Banerjee, Wrichik Basu, Harish Kumar Pillai
  • Electrical network analysis of a multiphase system
    Patent number: 8121804
    Abstract: A method for determining characteristics of a multi-material object is provided. The method includes determining an electric element matrix representing the multi-material object. The electric element matrix is pre-multiplied by a first mathematical transformation matrix to obtain a first transformed electric element matrix. The first transformed electric element matrix is post-multiplied with a second mathematical transformation matrix to obtain a second transformed electric element matrix. The method further includes determining the characteristics of the multi-material object based on the second transformed electric element matrix.
