Abstract: The technology disclosed herein enables automatic implementation of a physical barrier to protect access to data on removable storage media. In a particular embodiment, a method provides determining that the item moved into a storage position using an automatic transfer mechanism and determining that a condition for protecting the item is satisfied. Upon determining that the condition is satisfied, the method provides implementing a physical barrier that prevents the automatic transfer mechanism from removing the item from the storage position.

Abstract: A measurement system includes a plurality of thermocouples, where the plurality of thermocouples is located in a support component and includes at least three groups of thermocouples. The at least three groups of thermocouples can also include one thermocouple shared by the each group of thermocouples. A distance between two thermocouples from each of the at least three groups is selected to enable measurement of temperature/flow field features of a predetermined characteristic length.

Abstract: A velocity probe capable of measuring all the three components of a velocity vector simultaneously by correlating data from three or more thermocouples is shown and described.
