    Abstract: The present invented mechanism comprises more than two (legs) with phase difference (like polygon-shape, ellipse-shape, and etc) between their rotation angles to produce pre-loading for improved adhesion. Two rigid plates covered with adhesives are attached to each phase difference wheel. Each plate connects to the wheels via a hinge embodying a torsional spring, which forces the plate back to its original position after each contact with surface. The phase difference wheels are made of elastic materials for application of controlled pre-loads at contact surfaces during locomotion. The difference between height and width of each wheel as well as the elastic properties of the materials determine the pre-load pressure applied during locomotion. The pre-load pressure is not strongly dependent on the orientation of locomotion. This enables locomotion in vertical, inclined and even upside-down orientation and also in the non-gravity environment.

    Abstract: This invention relates to appliqué film for paint replacement application on aircraft and other surfaces. This system comprises a carrier backing film with patterned hybrid pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs), with discrete silicone phase within a continuous acrylic phase. The patterned hybrid PSAs exhibit a peel strength between 2 and 8 pound per in (pli) in the temperature range of −65° F. to 285° F. This appliqué film also provides high levels of stability under exposure to weathering effects and fluids applied to exterior aircraft surfaces.

    Abstract: Pseudoelastic elements are shaped in order to form springs which exhibit relatively constant force levels over a major fraction of maximum deflection capacity during loading and also during unloading. The shape of sail pseudoelastic elements is chosen to concentrate at least one of flexural and torsional deformations within limited regions. The element may be braced outside said regions in order to further concentrate deformations within said regions. Loading of said pseudoelastic springs thus produces strains within said regions which are largely corresponding to the upper pseudoelastic stress plateau where strain variations cause relatively small changes in stress. Unloading of said pseudoelastic springs also produces strains within said regions which are largely corresponding to the lower stress plateau of the pseudoelastic stress-strain curve where stress is subject to relatively small changes with strain variations. Said psueodoelastic springs can be used in brush holders which can benefit from a relatively constant level of force as deflections occur due to brush wear.

    Abstract: A thermoplastic polymer of relatively low melt temperature is blended with at least one of thermosets, elastomers, and thermoplastics of relatively high melt temperature in order to produce a polymer blend which absorbs relatively high quantities of latent heat without melting or major loss of physical and mechanical characteristics as temperature is raised above the melting temperature of the low-melt-temperature thermoplastic. The polymer blend can be modified by the addition of at least one of fillers, fibers, fire retardants, compatibilisers, colorants, and processing aids. The polymer blend may be used in applications where advantage can be taken of the absorption of excess heat by a component which remains solid and retains major fractions of its physical and mechanical characteristics while absorbing relatively high quantities of latent heat.

    Abstract: A hardened cementitious composite produced using conventional mixing techniques, including a microsilica-cement mixture and randomly distributed discontinuous polyamide fibers is described. Other mix ingredients used in forming the composite are superplasticizer, water and possibly aggregates and fly ash substituting for part of the Portland cement. The microsilica particles are essential in dispersing the fibers during the regular mixing, and in enhancing the fiber-cement interfacial bond. Microsilica also reduces the alkalinity of the matrix and helps in increasing the durability of polyamide fibers in the alkaline environment of cement. With their close spacing and superior bond to the matrix of the composite, the polyamide fibers are highly effective in increasing the ultimate tensile and flexural strength and in improving the ductility and toughness of the material.
