Abstract: An electronic device may have a hinge that allows the device to be flexed about a bend axis. A display may span the bend axis. To facilitate bending about the bend axis without damage, the display may include a display cover layer with a flexible portion. The flexible portion of the display cover layer may be interposed between first and second rigid portions of the display cover layer. The display cover layer may also include a layer with self-healing properties. The layer of self-healing material may be formed across the entire display cover layer or may be formed only in the flexible region of the display cover layer. The display cover layer may include a layer of elastomer in the flexible region of the display cover layer for increased flexibility. Self-healing may be initiated or expedited by externally applied heat, light, electric current, or other type of external stimulus.

Abstract: A segmented grouting method for ramp drivage in an aquifer is provided. Concerning grouting reinforcement for a ramp in an aquifer, a grouting process is divided into four stages according to a pressure change, that is, micro-pressure filling, low-pressure diffusion, medium-pressure reinforcement, and high-pressure fracturing. In the micro-pressure filling, an initial pressure of a grouting orifice is 0, and a low-concentration single-component grout is used to fill an original fissure of the aquifer. In the low-pressure diffusion, a low-concentration bicomponent grout is used for grouting, the original fissure is expanded, and a grouting radius is increased. In the medium-pressure reinforcement, a high-concentration bicomponent grout is used for grouting, thereby reinforcing the aquifer. In the high-pressure fracturing, a high-concentration bicomponent grout is used to reinforce a new fractured fissure of the orifice caused by a high pressure and the original fissure, thereby forming a confining bed.

Abstract: A system and method for multi-spectral gas concentration analysis that includes using a library of multiple sets of optimized spectral sensitivities prepared in advance, and a multi-spectral IR gas analyzer tuned to a set of optimized spectral sensitivity. The multi-spectral IR gas analyzer measures spectral absorption of gas using one or more different sets of optimized spectral sensitivities.

Abstract: A method of quantifying gas leak rate includes receiving image frames acquired with a camera and including a plume from a gas leak source, determining a real-world size that each pixel represents, identifying pixels corresponding to the plume in a first image frame, calculating gas concentration path lengths of the plume for the pixels in the first image frame, calculating, based on the first image frame and a second image frame, an image velocity field of the plume including displacement vectors for the pixels, identifying, within the first image, a closed boundary enclosing the gas leak source of the plume, and calculating a first gas leak rate in the first image frame by calculating a volume rate of the plume flowing across the closed boundary based on the image velocity field, the gas concentration path lengths, and a time interval between the first and the second image frames.

Abstract: A gas concentration-length quantification method may include: acquiring a multi-spectral image of detected radiance including a plurality of pixels using a multi-spectral optical gas imaging camera; estimating a background radiance for at least one of the pixels; calculating a gas concentration-length for the at least one of the pixels based on the detected radiance and the estimated background radiance; and triggering an alert when each alert condition in a list of alert conditions is satisfied. A multi-spectral configuration of the camera may include a reference band that is outside an absorption window of a target gas and an active band that includes at least a portion of the absorption window. Estimating the background radiance may include determining a model relating a detected radiance of the active band to a detected radiance of the reference band and using the model to estimate the background radiance for the active band.
