Abstract: An archery mounting assembly and method are disclosed herein. The archery mounting assembly, in an embodiment, includes a mount device having first and second portions that are moveable relative to one another. The second portion is configured to be coupled to the rear surface of an archery device. The archery device can be an archery bow that is aimable toward a target, or the archery device can be an adapter attached to the archery bow. When the second portion is coupled to the rear surface and the archery bow is aimed toward the target, the rear surface faces in a rearward direction away from the target. The archery mounting assembly also includes an adjuster moveably coupled to the second portion, and the archery mounting assembly has an accessory support supported by the first portion.

Abstract: An archery mounting assembly and method are disclosed herein. The archery mounting assembly, in an embodiment, includes a mount device having a mount portion configured to be engaged with a body of an archery weapon. The mount device also has a first interface that extends at least partially along an adjustment axis. The archery mounting assembly further includes an accessory support, which includes a support portion configured to support an archery accessory and a second interface configured to be movably coupled to the first interface of the mount device.

Abstract: Two-dimensional (2D) crystals have renewed opportunities in artificial lattice design and assembly without the constraints of epitaxy. However, the lack of thickness control in exfoliated van der Waals (vdW) layers prevents realization of repeat units with high fidelity. Uniform, wafer-scale samples permits engineering of both electronic and optical dispersions in stacks of disparate 2D layers with multiple repeating units. Systems, methods, and devices present optical dispersion engineering in a superlattice structure including alternating layers of 2D excitonic chalcogenides and dielectric insulators. Examples demonstrate >90% narrowband absorption in <4 nm active layer excitonic absorber medium at room temperature, concurrently with enhanced photoluminescence in cm2 samples. These superlattices show evidence of strong light-matter coupling and exciton-polariton formation with geometry-tunable coupling constants.

Abstract: An archery adapter is disclosed herein. The archery adapter, in an embodiment, includes a first surface and a second surface. The first surface is configured to make contact with a rear section of a weapon. The body defines at least one opening configured to at least partially receive a fastener. The body at least partially has a dovetail shape, and the body is configured to mate with an element of an accessory.

Abstract: The invention relates to a ground surface marker and method for surface marking. It is known to apply surface markings, for example road markings, using paint. Many current road marking paints have a touch dry time from about five minutes to one hour, with full drying taking 24 hours or more, depending on the air temperature. The dry time of current paints can delay the opening of a road which may be costly because it increases the need for traffic control and can expose contractors to motoring hazards. If roads are opened prior to full drying of the paint, then the road markings may be compromised by contact with vehicle wheels. The invention aims to go at least some way toward addressing these problems by providing a ground surface marker comprising a paint applicator, a dispenser associated with reflectors, and a UV light source.

Abstract: A casing inspection device with magnets and a multi-component flux sensors. The multicomponent sensor enables better definition of the size of defects, particularly in the azimuthal direction.

Abstract: A casing inspection device with magnets and flux sensors. Measurements of axial motion of the device are used to get better definition of the axial extent of casing defects. A contact device may be used for motion measurement. The output of the contact device may be used to control the acquisition of flux measurements direction.

Abstract: A temperature compensating valve assembly comprising a bimetallic spring, an O-ring, a body and a cap. The cap has at least one nib to provide compression on the bimetallic spring. The bimetallic spring is retained between the cap and the body, and the bimetallic spring forms a seal with the O-ring in the temperature compensating valve assembly's closed position.

Abstract: A casing inspection device with magnets and flux sensors. The sensors provide measurements of absolute levels of magnetic flux that are indicative of changes in casing thickness and/or permeability.

Abstract: An upconverter receives an intermediate frequency (IF) modulated signal on a port (5) and a local oscillator carrier signal at a port (6). A comb generator (13-15) generates a comb-like waveform from the carrier signal, the waveform having a peak for each of a number of multiples of the carrier fundamental. A bandpass filter (16) selects one of the comb peaks and there is further multiplication at a quadrupler (20). The modulated signal (IF) and the multiplied carrier are mixed in a mixer (23) to provide a high frequency upper sideband (LO+IF) output. The output is transmitted in a waveguide (7) which is integral with the casing (2, 3) and which performs high frequency filtering by virtue of its shape.
