Publication number: 20240000359Abstract: A method of reducing error in magnetoencephalography arising from the presence of a non-neuromagnetic field. The method comprises measuring, using a sensor array for measuring neuromagnetic fields, magnetic field at a plurality of discrete locations around a subject's head to provide sensor data; wherein the magnetic field measured at at least some of the locations includes a neuromagnetic field from a source of interest within a subject's brain and a non-neuromagnetic field from a source of no interest external to the brain. The measuring comprises: measuring, at at least a first subset of the locations, a magnetic field along a first direction relative to a radial axis intersecting the respective location, and measuring, at at least a second subset of the locations, a magnetic field along a second direction relative to a radial axis intersecting the respective location which is different to the first direction; and performing source reconstruction using the sensor data.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2021Publication date: January 4, 2024Inventors: Matthew BROOKES, Elena Boto

Patent number: 11549600Abstract: A rotary turbine bypass valve comprises a valve chamber and a valve rotor. The chamber is positioned at a junction of an inlet port, an outlet port and a bypass port. The inlet port is configured to receive exhaust gas, the outlet port is configured to fluidly communicate with a turbine inlet, and the bypass port is configured to fluidly communicate with an exhaust aftertreatment device. The rotor comprises a first and second recess, the first recess defining a primary flow passage, the second recess defining a secondary flow passage. The rotor is rotatable between a first position in which the rotor substantially blocks exhaust gas flow through the bypass port and a second position in which the rotor permits such. The secondary flow passage is configured to selectively permit fluid communication between the inlet port and the bypass port when the primary flow passage is partially blocked.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2019Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: CUMMINS LTD.Inventors: Donald E. Willey, Matthew Brookes
