  • Publication number: 20130298681
    Abstract: A method for determining the fibre orientation in a fibre-reinforced component having a number of fibres distributed in a laminate material is provided. The fibres are orientated in at least one defined direction. An ultrasonic signal is emitted into the component by an ultrasonic transducer. A reflected ultrasonic signal is received by an ultrasonic receiver and a measurement signal is generated. The ultrasonic transducer and the ultrasonic receiver are disposed in a defined linear relationship. Information is determined indicating a degree of the fibre orientation in relation to the defined linear relationship of the ultrasonic transducer and the ultrasonic receiver from the respective measurement signal.

  • Publication number: 20120219034
    Abstract: A method of detecting wrinkles in a fiber reinforced laminated structure is provided. In this method, the structure is locally heated or cooled, the location of the heating or cooling being moved along a defined path, the temperature of the structure is measured at a measuring location being different from the location of the heating or cooling, the measuring location being moved along the same path as the location of the heating or cooling, and wrinkles are detected from temperature anomalies found along the defined path.

  • Patent number: 8202058
    Abstract: A variable displacement axial piston machine. The variable displacement axial piston machine includes a cylinder block with at least one main cylinder and main piston, a swash plate, a plunger arrangement with a plunger and auxiliary cylinder, and a sensor. The swash plate is arranged to effect movement of the main piston in the main cylinder upon rotation of the swash plate relative to the cylinder arrangement. The plunger is arranged to tilt the swash plate relative to the cylinder arrangement and to control a stroke of the main cylinder in the main piston. To provide a simple and reliable measurement of displacement of the main piston in the main cylinder, the invention provides a sensor element which is fixed in the auxiliary cylinder and which is adapted to sense movement of the plunger therein.

  • Publication number: 20100150842
    Abstract: The present invention concerns the detection of resistance in a living organism, e.g., herbicide resistance in weed crops. Based on non-separated compounds obtained from an organism, e.g., an extract from a plant, a color development is generated. The color or shade developed is dependent on the compounds of the organism. By comparing the color or shade of the extract obtained from an organism with a standard color scale developed with respect to the same organism, it is possible to determine if the organism is resistant to a pesticide, e.g., a herbicide. The invention also concerns a method of providing a standard color scale for material from a living organism that has been exposed to stress, e.g., a pesticide. As assay kit for the determination of whether material from a living organism is resistant to a pesticide is also described. The present invention may be used by farmers or advisors to test if the plants have developed resistance to a herbicide.

  • Publication number: 20070276346
    Abstract: An ostomy bag with a filter assembly having a gas filter and a pre-filter for preventing or delaying solid/semisolid matter and liquid from reaching the gas filter. The pre-filter is at least substantially flat and comprises a number of constrictions, such as ribs extending along and between two inner surface parts of the channel. These constrictions/ribs form narrower and wider passages where the gas may more quickly pass a narrow passage and where the wider passages tend to receive and hold the liquid, solid matter and semisolid matter. The constrictions may be provided as a single, monolithic element, such as an extruded element.

  • Publication number: 20070251336
    Abstract: In many miniaturized high-throughput assays, effective stirring is difficult to achieve, and its consequences difficult to predict. Most microtitre plate-based in vitro assays of membrane permeability, such as Caco-2 and PAMPA, of sparingly soluble lipophilic test compounds in pharmaceutical research and development report permeability of water, and not of the intended membrane barrier. This is so because the aqueous boundary layer on both sides of the membrane barrier is rate limiting for these highly permeable molecules. The thickness of this water layer can be 1500-4000 ?m in unstirred assays. Under in vivo conditions, however, the aqueous boundary layer is believed to be 30-100 ?m thick in the intestine, and <1 ?m at the blood-brain barrier. Using plate shakers to stir microtitre plates cannot lower the thickness of the water layer to match that found in vivo.
