With the coupling of an external field and aeration (or a flow of another gas), nanoparticles can be smoothly and vigorously fluidized. Multiple external fields and / or pre-treatment may be employed with the fluidizing gas: sieving, magnetic assistance, vibration, acoustic / sound or rotational / centrifugal forces.

In addition, the fluidized nanoparticles may participate in a reaction, either as a reactant or a catalyst, while in the fluidized state.

Core-less current sensor comprises two parallel conductors carrying equal currents in the same direction. The magnetic field in mid location of the two parallel conductors carrying equal currents in the same direction for all current magnitudes is zero in absence of an external magnetic interference. Sum of magnetic fields in two points equidistant from the mid location on both the sides is zero as magnetic fields at these points are equal in magnitude and opposite in polarity for all current magnitudes and for equal amount of currents flowing through both conductors in same direction in absence of an external magnetic interference. Two sensing elements can be arranged between the two parallel conductors for sensing the magnetic field due to currents flowing through them for the purpose of current measurement. Sensor output is the difference between two outputs measured by the sensing elements. Outputs of sensing elements can vary due to external interference. As variation in the outputs of sensing elements due to external interference gets cancelled in sensor output, automatic external field compensation can be achieved.

An energy-based method for automatically locating the earthquake focus of a microearthquake belongs to the field of microearthquake detection, and relates to an earthquake focus locating method used in a microearthquake monitoring system, in particular to an automatic microearthquake locating method and a method for improving the locating accuracy.

The fixed external field is created by other components in the sensor device housing (such as speaker magnets) which have a high but static field with respect to the low (earth's) magnetic field that describes orientation information.

Disclosed herein are two separate processes that do not require a propellant and do not produce an equal and opposite reaction against any external form of matter in the Local Inertial Reference Frame and do not violate Newton's Laws in the Universal Reference Frame. The first process produces horizontal motion, relies on the earth's gravitational field as an external force, and has been successfully tested. The second process produces vertical motion and relies only on the aether. It has been successfully tested considering the effect of the earth's gravity. Due to the law of conservation of angular momentum, the first process is considered by some to not be possible, but with the proper use of an external field (for example, gravity) and the phenomenon of precession, it is clearly possible. A clear distinction is made between a simple rotor and a gyroscope which is a far more complex device.

This relation is indicative of at least one blood circulation and blood coagulation related parameter of the mammal.

A spectral filter is adapted for use in a receiver, for example in a short range submarine laser signal path, wherein the relative orientations of the receiver is such that the signal may appear diffusely or at an unknown point in a wide external field of view around an optical axis of the receiver. A narrow band spectral filter in the receiver has cascaded stages of tunable retarders with includes multi-conjugate stages that tolerate light that is oblique to normal, up to a diverging internal field of view angle up to about 10°. A fisheye lens assembly refracts incoming light from a wider external field of 170° or more and directs the light into the filter over the narrow internal field of view. Calibration and feedback control can be provided to stabilize the discriminated wavelength peak, which remains at the same center wavelength over the span of the internal field of view notwithstanding the difference in retarder thicknesses traversed along paths that are normal to the retarders versus oblique to the optical axis.

Inertial propulsion is a largely undeveloped field. Inertial propulsion is defined as propelling a vehicle without the use of a propellant such as rocket fuel or ions, or by the application of an external force.Disclosed herein are two separate processes that do not require a propellant and do not produce an equal and opposite reaction against any external form of matter in the Local Inertial Reference Frame and do not violate Newton's Laws in the Universal Reference Frame. The first process produces horizontal motion, relies on the earth's gravitational field as an external force, and has been successfully tested. The second process produces vertical motion and relies only on the aether. It has been successfully tested considering the effect of the earth's gravity. The two processes referenced above are examples of converting the rotary motion of a spinning rotor into unidirectional linear motion. Due to the law of conservation of angular momentum, the first process is normally considered not possible, but with the proper use of an external field (for example, gravity) and the phenomenon of precession, it becomes possible. A clear distinction is made between a simple rotor and a gyroscope which is a far more complex device.

A tire pressure reporting and warning system employs low-cost passive magnetically coupled pressure senders within the tires. These senders employ permanent magnets that rotate in response to pressure and may conveniently be mounted on the valve stem. A sender comprises a high-permeability helical ribbon that translates in response to pressure and penetrates a magnetic circuit. The magnetic circuit rotates into alignment with the helical ribbon. A novel feature of this invention is the dual-purpose use of the magnet both as a means for producing rotation in response to pressure and simultaneously for producing the remotely sensed external magnetic field. The direction and strength of the external field depends both on the rotation of the magnet with respect to the tire and on the overall orbital motion as the tire rotates. Remote pressure readers at each wheel respond to the magnetic field components and interpret the response asymmetry in terms of tire pressure by continuously calculating response skew as the tires rotate. Analyzing skew obviates the need for tire rotation sensing and timing and eliminates magnetic strength effects. No special alignment is required between senders and readers, so the readers may be mounted rather arbitrarily nearby the vehicle wheels.
