Abstract: One example of a method includes heating a ground steel part that has been chemical-etched. The method also includes detecting defects caused by grinding and watermarks caused by chemical etching by imaging the steel part with an infrared camera to capture infrared radiation from regions of the steel part that include defects and watermarks. Imaging the steel part can include imaging regions of the steel part at long-wavelengths of infrared radiation to detect defects on the regions of the steel part and generating a first image wherein the defects are visible in the image and the watermarks are not visible in the image.

Abstract: Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy apparatus for use in analyzing a sample comprising a sample receiving location (2) for receiving a sample (3) for analysis; an illumination arrangement (4) for directing light towards a received sample; a detector (6) for detecting light reflected by a received sample; and collection optics (5) for directing light reflected by a received sample towards the detector. The illumination arrangement further comprises an interferometer (42) and a half beam block (45a, 45b) which is disposed substantially at a focus in the optical path for blocking light which exits the interferometer, passes said focus, and is reflected from reentering the interferometer. A half beam block (45a) may be disposed in the optical path between the interferometer and the light source (41) for blocking light that exits the interferometer back towards the light source and is reflected by the light source from re-entering the interferometer and/or a half beam block (45b) may be disposed in the optical path on the opposite side of the interferometer than the light source.

Abstract: There is provided a system, a method, and a thermochromatic witness assembly to monitor a thermal environment of a composite structure. The thermochromatic witness assembly has a polymeric material and one or more thermochromatic probes mixed into the polymeric material to form a thermochromatic probe mixture. The thermochromatic probe mixture is applied to a transparent polymeric film, or is formed into the transparent polymeric film with a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) applied thereto, thus forming the thermochromatic witness assembly in a form of a thermochromatic applique. The thermochromatic applique is configured to be applied directly and continuously to a surface of the composite structure. The thermochromatic applique is further configured to monitor the thermal environment of the composite structure by detecting one or more temperatures and one or more times the surface of the composite structure is exposed to the thermal environment.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a capillary fluidic device comprising at least two inlets, a microfluidic channel and an outlet. The device allows for the autonomous and programmable sequential flow of the same or different fluids using capillary fluidics for autonomous pumping of liquids to other downstream fluidic structures. External pumping and valving systems are not required, thus reducing complexity and increasing portability of stand-alone microfluidic systems. Aspects of the present disclosure can be applied to other fluidic structures for performing analytical biological assays. The integration has at least one reaction chamber and at least one capillary pump. The device is integrated with at least one sensor for detection and quantification of the biological assay signals.

Abstract: A detection device detects an analyte that may be contained in a specimen. The detection device includes a plurality of gold nanoparticles, an optical trapping light source, an illumination light source, an objective lens, an image pick-up device, and a computation unit. The plurality of gold nanoparticles are each modified with a probe DNA allowing the analyte to specifically adhere thereto. The optical trapping light source emits polarized light for assembling the plurality of gold nanoparticles together. The objective lens focuses and introduces the polarized light into a liquid containing a specimen and the plurality of gold nanoparticles. The image pick-up device receives light from the liquid. The computation unit detects an analyte based on a signal received from the image pick-up device.
