Radio frequency coaxial cavity resonator as an ignition source and associated method

TL;DR: In this article, an apparatus for providing an ignition source for internal combustion engines comprises a radio frequency oscillator, an amplifier and a coaxial cavity resonator, which is adaptable for communication with a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine.
Patent

Method and apparatus for measuring the color of three dimensional objects

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for measuring color of objects comprises storing in a computer memory values representative of measurements of the color of an object over a range of angular positions with respect to a photosensor, selecting a measurement area of the object, determining a geometrical structure of the measurement area, and adjusting the measured color in response to the stored values.
Patent

Cervical drug delivery system

TL;DR: An absorbent cylindrical structure with a cervical cap attached to one end is used to deliver drugs to the patient's vagina as discussed by the authors, where one or more therapeutic agents are applied to the internal surface of the cervical cap.
Patent

Axial vane rotary device and sealing system therefor

TL;DR: An axial vane rotary device (14) includes a stator with a cylindrical internal chamber (34) defined by an annular outer wall (40) and two side walls (36, 38) of the stator as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electromagnetic design of a novel microwave internal combustion engine ignition source, the quarter wave coaxial cavity igniter

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed overview of the QWCCR's history is presented, followed by an electromagnetic analysis of the resonator, focusing on geometric and material parameter relations compared with performance characteristics, such as resonator quality factor and developed tip electric field.
