  • Providing failover control on a control system
    Patent number: 10169175
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing failover control in a control system are provided. For instance, a data stream from a plurality of computing nodes in a computing system can be monitored. A first subset of computing nodes can be selected based on the data streams. Control grant signals can be generated for each computing node of the first subset. An output to one or more computing nodes of the first subset can be activated based at least in part on a number of control grant signals generated for each computing node of the first subset. Control authority can then be granted to the one or more computing nodes of the first subset.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 11, 2016
    Date of Patent: January 1, 2019
    Assignee: GE Aviation Systems LLC
    Inventors: Stefano A. M. Lassini, Timothy John Theriault, Mark Lawrence Darnell

  • Method and apparatus for recording physical variables of transient acceleration events
    Patent number: 6122959
    Abstract: An acceleration recorder and related method for monitoring, discriminating, and recording acceleration events only when the acceleration and calculated velocity change both exceed selected trigger values. While the acceleration values meet a first, user-defined threshold, the acceleration values are integrated to calculate a velocity change value. If the velocity change value meets a second, user-defined threshold, the acceleration event, including the velocity change, is recorded in memory.
