  • Patent number: 10641664
    Abstract: A monitoring method and system include an antenna disposed spaced from a structural member (SM), which itself can be the target object or attachable to a target object, without using any in-dwelling strain sensor. The antenna is arranged to not touch the SM in at least the no load condition. As the target object undergoes displacement and/or deformation, the SM undergoes displacement and/or deformation. The SM is juxtaposed, partially contained with, or fully contained within a magnetic or electromagnetic field and electromagnetically coupled to the emitting antenna. Characteristics of the electromagnetic field coupling between the antenna and the SM shift over time due to the displacement and/or deformation applied to the SM. The shift in the characteristics of the electromagnetic field coupling between the antenna and the SM over time can be used to determine the temporal change in deformation and/or displacement of the SM over time to enable diagnosis of the target structural object being monitored.

  • Patent number: 10274557
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address the problems with previously known MRI enhancement resonators. The embodiments provide capacitances that are sufficiently large to result in resonance frequencies that are sufficiently low for medical MRI applications in devices that are sufficiently small for implantation into the body. Further, the capacitance and resonance frequency of the MRI enhancement resonator may be easily adjusted to particular desired values by selecting corresponding thin-film dielectrics, or thicknesses of such thin-film dielectrics. Moreover, the design and geometry of the embodiments provide MRI enhancement resonators with high Q-factors. The construction and material of such MRI enhancement resonators also yield flexible and biocompatible devices that are appropriate for applications involving implantation into the body.
