  • Correction of signal distortion in an NMR apparatus
    Patent number: 5289127
    Abstract: Temporal B.sub.o shifts in NMR spectroscopy and/or imaging systems arising from pulsed field gradient induced eddy currents result in the distortion of free induction decay signals. A method of compensation of this distortion through modulation of the sender and/or receiver signal in opposite concert with the induced B.sub.o shifts is introduced. The method has the advantage of having a fast response and of not altering the magnetic gradient field. (FIG.

  • Capacitive load measuring device
    Patent number: 4384496
    Abstract: A load measuring device which includes a hollow metal housing having a wall which is elastically deformable when the housing is subject to an applied load. The elastic deformation varies the capacitance of a capacitor located within the housing to provide a measurement of the applied load.
