Abstract: A method of replacing an individual damaged compressor stator airfoil includes machining an oversized slot through the stator casing, removing the damaged airfoil, and joining a sleeve to the replacement airfoil and stator casing. The oversized slot creates sufficient clearance for removal of a three-dimensional airfoil, while the sleeve creates a sufficiently tight fit to allow the pieces to be brazed together.

Abstract: A media player system, method and computer program product are provided. In use, an utterance is received. A command for a media player is then generated based on the utterance. Such command is utilized for providing wireless control of the media player.

Abstract: An article and method for stabilization of a nickel-based superalloy coated with a diffusion aluminide coating. The region below the aluminide coating is first carburized to form refractory carbides. The article is cleaned and masked as required so that regions that will not have an aluminide coating are not carburized. After placing the article into a furnace and heating in a non-oxidizing atmosphere to a carburizing temperature, a carburizing gas is introduced, and the near surface region is carburized to a depth of about 100 microns. Refractory carbides are formed in this region. When a diffusion aluminide coating is formed on the article, the refractory elements, being present as refractory carbides, are not available to form detrimental TCP phases.
