  • Patent number: 10082546
    Abstract: An underwater EM measurement system, which is substantially smaller, much simpler to use, and more robust than prior systems, is formed as a sensor package integrated into a single pressure vessel includes two magnetic sensors including induction coils disposed substantially horizontally so as to measure fields in orthogonal directions. The package also includes two electric field sensors including electric potential antennas adapted to couple to a water potential via a capacitive electrode having a conducting material and an electrically insulative layer formed of an insulating material. The capacitive electrode has a capacitance to the medium of greater than 1 mF. Preferably, the insulating material is a metal oxide.

  • Patent number: 8131213
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a tagging and identification device and system for tracking and monitoring sea vessels as they enter sea ports, estuaries and/or other channels. The tagging device of the present invention comprises a receiver, for receiving an underwater electromagnetic signal transmitted by an underwater beacon. An acoustic transmitter is provided for transmitting an identification signal to an acoustic receiver deployed nearby. The acoustic identification signal is transmitted after an electromagnetic trigger signal is received from the underwater beacon. The tagging and device may further comprise a memory device which can store data relating to position and time of the see vessel to which it is attached. The tagging and identification device of the present invention is covert, compact and is capable of extended active deployment without replenishment of batteries etc.

  • Publication number: 20080287023
    Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a more heat-resistant laminate comprising a metal foil, a fabric, and bonding means between the metal foil and the fabric, wherein the bonding means are a flouropolymer foil functioning as an adhesive film for bonding the fabric and the metal foil together. Hereby, an impermeable laminate is provided which is flexible and can withstand higher temperatures without delaminating. A laminate according to the invention can be mounted directly against hot components with temperatures up to 550° C. when the fabric is a woven glass fabric and as high as 1100° C. if the fabric is ceramic. The bonding means are stabile in temperatures up to 290° C. and provides a stabile and durable bonding also during temperature exposure of the laminate of 310° C. for an extended period of time.
