Starkey, Mike | Transforming disfigured and disoriented areas into routable switchboxes | Routing an entire circuit requires partitioning the circuit (routing area) into smaller, localized routing areas. Using non-rectangular, rotated switchbox shapes (and therefore non-manhattan routing layout) has the potential to simplify the partitioning of the circuit into routable areas and to use ... | Disfigured areas; Disoriented areas; routable switchboxes | 1991 |

Furse, Cynthia M. | Down to the wire | As today's military and commercial aircraft age past their teen years, the many kilometers of wiring buried deep within their structures begin to crack and fray. Once thought to be rare and benign, such faults are found by the hundreds in a typical aircraft. Unlike obvious cracks in a wing or an e... | Aging wiring; Wire fault location; Aging wire detection; Smart wire systems | 2001-01-01 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F.; Pershing, David W. | Production of nitrogen oxide during char oxidation at pulverized coal combustion conditions | More stringent regulations for NOx control in pulverized coal combustors have made the scientific community focus on sources of emissions that were traditionally considered less relevant to the overall NOx production. The oxidation to NO of the nitrogen that is organically bound to the char is one o... | | 2001 |
