Present embodiments unexpectedly demonstrate MOS-based gas sensors that can differentiate between different gases using responses collected using at least two different operating temperatures, wherein this differentiation is superior in the differentiation between different gases and in baseline stability, as compared to the resistance response of the same gas sensing material at more than two operating temperatures.

The power negotiation enables a Power Transmitter and a Power Receiver to reserve an amount of power that the Power Transmitter can provide to the Power Receiver.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CREATION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL TOOL FRAME
Embodiments of the disclosure include a method to create a three-dimensional (3D) tool frame for a robot. The method includes identifying a reference point on a calibration grid using a robotic vision system, such as a camera or laser. The identified reference point is used to create a user frame coordinate system with an origin at the identified reference point. The identified reference point being equal to a field of view origin created by a 3D scanner. Being at the specific location where the field of view origin is created during calibration, a 3D tool frame is created based on user frame location. The 3D tool frame indicates the location and orientation of the 3D scanner in the field of view coordinate system.
A system for reheating a power generation system (10) including a boiler (12) having a waterwall (23) and a steam drum (25) with an input fluidly coupled to the waterwall (23) and an auxiliary heat source(70) to provide heated fluid. The system also includes a first flow control valve (94) connected to the auxiliary heat source and the boiler to control a flow of heated fluid from the auxiliary heat source (70) to the waterwall (23); a first isolation valve (390) disposed at a waterwall, to isolate circulation of heated fluid from the steam drum (25) to the waterwall; and a sensor to monitor at least one operating characteristic in the boiler. The system also includes a controller (100) to control at least one of the flow control valve (94), the isolation valve (390), and the auxiliary heat source (70) to control the amount of heated fluid supplied to the waterwall (23) when the boiler (12) is not generating steam.

METHOD OF JOINING SEGMENTS OF A COMPOSITE COMPONENT
Methods are provided for joining a composite component, such as a rotor blade (112) of a wind turbine (100). Accordingly, a first blade segment (1267, 126) is provided and a bladder assembly (300, 330) is positioned thereon. Additionally, an adhesive element (302) is positioned in a first position (304) on the first blade segment (1267, 126). A second blade segment (128) is positioned with the first blade segment (1267, 126) so as to define an inner cavity (306) therebetween. The inner cavity (306) contains the adhesive element (302) and the bladder assembly (300, 330), but the adhesive element (302) does not contact the second blade segment (128) while in the first position (304). The bladder assembly (300, 330) is inflated to transition the adhesive element (302) to a second position (310) in contact with both the first blade segment (1267, 126) and the second blade segment (128). With the adhesive element (302) in contact with both blade segments (113), the adhesive element (302) is allowed to cure in order to secure the blade segments (113) to one another.

METHOD OF JOINING BLADE SEGMENTS USING AN INTERNAL BLADDER
A method for joining rotor blade segments of a rotor blade includes providing a first blade segment defining a concave cross-sectional shape having at least one internal flange. The method also includes providing a second blade segment having at least one external flange. Further, the method includes positioning the internal flange(s) of the blade segment internal of the external flange(s) of the second blade segment at a joint. Moreover, the method includes placing at least one inflatable internal bladder within an inner cavity of the rotor blade at the joint. In addition, the method includes inflating the internal bladder(s) so as to provide internal pressure thereto so as to align the internal flange(s) with the external flange(s) and to maintain contact between the internal flange(s) and the external flange(s). Thus, the method also includes securing the first and second blade segments together while maintaining the internal pressure via the internal bladder(s).
Method of forming or repairing a part with an overhung section. The method may include removing a portion, and adding a section to the part. The section includes the overhung section. The adding includes sequentially layering at least one plurality of material layers on the part, the at least one plurality of material layers approximating dimensions of the section including the overhung section. The sequential layering may include, for example, laser welding, and may be carried out in a number of ways that create varied layers within the overhung section. The method may include machining the at least one plurality of material layers to form the section including the overhung section.
This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for a new communication technique between a wireless power transmission apparatus and a wireless power reception apparatus. The new communication technique may be more efficient for communication of a feedback parameter or other control information compared to a legacy packet-based digital communication technique. The new communication technique may use a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal as an analog representation of a feedback parameter or other control information. In some implementations, the PWM communication technique in this disclosure can be used for a variety of control or feedback information from the wireless power reception apparatus to the wireless power transmission apparatus. Furthermore, in some implementations, the PWM communication technique may be used for feedforward information from the wireless power transmission apparatus to the wireless power reception apparatus.
