20080257062 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR STANDARDIZED CLASSIFICATION OF UNDERGARMENTS - The clamps of the present invention are initially placed apart with a specific separation to properly hold the garments in the constant rate of expansion (CRE) machine. The test method preferably uses panties that have been prepared according to specific test criteria and the CRE machine pre-programmed with specific parameters including the preload and the initial rate of extension. Before testing commences, the midpoint of an individual panty is placed at the center of the clamps. After a pre-determined resistance is sensed by the CRE machine, the rate of extension and the load instantly increase to test the panty's percent of elongation and modulus. This method is repeated for several styles and sizes of panties to obtain accurate, consistent elongation and modulus measurements for each style and size. These measurements thus categorize all of the measured styles and sizes into a standardized panty support classification system. | 10-23-2008 |

20090127253 | Temperature-controlled induction heating of polymeric materials - The present invention provides new polymer induction bonding technology. Induction heating technologies are utilized to weld, forge, bond or set polymer materials. The invention provides controlled-temperature induction heating of polymeric materials by mixing ferromagnetic particles in the polymer to be heated. Temperature control is obtained by selecting ferromagnetic particles with a specific Curie temperature. The ferromagnetic particles will heat up in an induction field, through hysteresis losses, until they reach their Curie temperature. At that point, heat generation through hysteresis loss ceases. This invention is applicable to bonding thermoplastic materials, wherein only the area to be heated has ferromagnetic particles in it; bonding of thermoset composites, which have been processed with a layer of thermoplastic material on one side; curing of thermoset adhesives or composite resins; or consolidating thermoplastic composites. | 05-21-2009 |

20110202719 | Logical Drive Duplication - There is provided a method of, and apparatus for, duplicating a logical drive. The method includes sequentially copying data from a source logical drive to a destination logical drive, and determining whether a write request to the source logical drive is received during the sequential copying. If so, the step of copying data in the write-requested data area to an additional storage area is carried out prior to executing the write request. It is further specified that the data in the write-requested data area is to be ignored and not copied during the sequential copying. The method further includes copying, upon completion of the sequential copying, data from the additional storage area to the destination logical drive. | 08-18-2011 |
20110202720 | Snapback-Free Logical Drive Duplication - There is provided a method of duplicating a logical drive. The method includes sequentially copying data from a source logical drive to a destination logical drive and determining whether a write request is received to a data area on the source logical drive which has not yet been copied to the destination logical drive. If a write request is detected, the data at the write-requested data area is copied to the destination logical drive prior to executing the write request. By providing such a method, the destination logical drive can be used as the change-data store while in the process of the duplication operation, removing the need for a snapshot logical drive in the duplication process. This results in improvements in duplication speed and reduces drive wear due to the reduced number of data reads/writes. | 08-18-2011 |
20110258381 | DATA DUPLICATION RESYNCHRONISATION - There is provided a method of resynchronising a previous duplication, started at a first time, of a source logical drive on a destination logical drive. The method comprises tracking changes to the data on said source logical drive since said first time and starting a resynchronisation operation at a second time later than said first time. The resynchronisation operation comprises copying data from said source logical drive to said destination logical drive by copying only data which has changed since said first time. By providing such a method, the need to copy data which has not changed since the previous duplication operation is alleviated. This reduces the time and processing required to perform the resynchronisation operation by eliminating unnecessary transfer of data which has not changed since the earlier duplication. | 10-20-2011 |
20120233484 | METHOD OF, AND APPARATUS FOR, POWER MANAGEMENT IN A STORAGE RESOURCE - There is provided a method and apparatus for power management in a storage resource.
