Filed:

Oct 1, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/967118

Inventors:

Feng Lin - Troy MI
Alexander T Zaremba - Dearborn Heights MI
Bader Badreddine - Dearborn MI
Jing Sun - Bloomfield Township MI

Assignee:

Ford Global Technologies, LLC - Dearborn MI

International Classification:

F02D 3100

US Classification:

123352, 123436, 12333921, 1231921, 701110, 701111

Abstract:

Within both a method for operating an internal combustion engine and a system for operating the internal combustion engine there is provided an engine rotation speed pulsation damping within the internal combustion engine through use of a PID controller which varies a single PID control parameter, particularly, K to provide the engine rotation speed pulsation damping within the internal combustion engine. Within both the method and the system there is also provided a pair of control algorithms for use within the PID controller such as to effect the desired engine rotation speed pulsation damping when operating the internal combustion engine.

International Classification:

G09C 5/00

US Classification:

380 55

Abstract:

This invention safeguards the integrity of a machine-printed paper document by entangling a characteristic signature derived from the document's paper grain structure with the identities of the printing device and the person or organization which issued the document. This protection is achieved using a certification phase performed by an augmented document printer and an authentication phase performed by an augmented document scanner. In the certification phase, the grain structure of a specific area of the original paper is imaged and processed to generate a unique signature for the paper. This signature is doubly encrypted using the private keys of the augmented printer and the certifier. These encryption steps entangle the signature of the paper with its source information in a way that thwarts counterfeiting attacks which either copy the document or falsely attribute its source to a specific printer and/or certifier.

5/908823

Inventors:

Feng Lin - Brooklyn NY

International Classification:

B65D 4710

US Classification:

222187

Abstract:

A device for dispensing materials such as insecticides or repellents within a container includes an elongated enclosed member in which the materials are placed, which is attached to a surface of the container. A pull tab is provided to rupture the enclosed member releasing the materials.

Abstract:

A battery network includes a plurality of heterogeneous batteries coupled to at least one energy source and one energy load, a plurality of switches coupled to the heterogeneous batteries, and the switches controllable having a duty cycle between 0 and 1. A controller is configured to characterize each of the plurality of heterogeneous batteries characteristics, determine duty cycles for each of the plurality of switches based on the characterization such that a charge applied from the at least one energy source or a discharge to the at least one energy load converges to a balanced state for the plurality of heterogeneous batteries, and apply the determined duty cycles to the plurality of switches.
