  • Patent number: 11415568
    Abstract: Systems and methods for implicit chemical resolution of vacuum gas oils and fit quality determination are disclosed. The systems and methods include utilizing an FT-IR spectrum of an unknown VGO composition, and a database of FT-IR spectra of known VGO compositions, to determine a model of composition for the unknown VGO composition. Additionally, the fit quality for the model of composition is determined by performing a partial least squares analysis on specific spectral regions of interest in the FT-IR spectrum of the unknown VGO composition.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11402323
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining performance properties of an unknown composition are disclosed. The performance properties can include a Research Octane Number (RON), a Motor Octane Number (MON), and/or a cetane number. The systems and methods include utilizing an optical spectrum of an unknown composition to determine a model of composition, where the model of composition includes a molecular identity and a relative abundance for components therein. The model of composition is then utilized to calculate one or more performance properties. Additionally, the fit quality for the model of composition is determined by performing a partial least squares analysis on specific spectral regions of interest in the optical spectra of the unknown composition.

  • Patent number: 5839528
    Abstract: A detachable motorized wheel assembly for a golf cart has a support framework removably attachable to the rear section of a golf cart of the type having oppositely disposed and spaced apart wheels. The assembly includes a motor driven wheel positioned between and rearward of the spaced apart wheels of the golf cart. The assembly further includes a golf bag support device having a number of support loops. Each loop having a first section outwardly disposed from the top of the support framework. Each loop further having a second section disposed upwardly from the first section to form an obtuse angle between the first and second sections.

  • Patent number: 5268788
    Abstract: A display especially for viewing by a night-vision aid has an array of LED's which emit green light. A dichroic filter is located in front of the display and transmits radiation at the peak emission of the diodes but reflects radiation in the range to which the night-vision aid is sensitive. A bandpass filter located in front of the dichroic filter prevents transmission of longer wavelengths, and a circularly polarizing filter in front of the bandpass filter prevents transmission of radiation reflected specularly from surfaces behind it.
