20130064663 | MORPHING SEGMENTED WIND TURBINE AND RELATED METHOD - A downwind morphing rotor that exhibits bending loads that will be reduced by aligning the rotor blades with the composite forces. This reduces the net loads on the blades which therefore allow for a reduced blade mass for a given maximum stress. Also provided is a pre-aligned configuration rotor whereby the rotor geometry and orientation does not change with wind speed, and instead is fixed at a constant downwind deflection consistent with alignment at or near the rated wind speed conditions. Also provided is a twist morphing rotor where the airfoil-shapes around the spars twist relative to the wind due to aerodynamic forces so as to unload the rotors when there is a gust. This can help reduce unsteady stresses on the blade and therefore may allow for reduced blade mass and cost. The twist morphing rotor may be combined with either downwind morphing rotor or pre-alignment rotor. | 03-14-2013 |

20140071775 | ADJUSTING BIT-LINE DISCHARGE TIME IN MEMORY ARRAYS BASED ON CHARACTERIZED WORD-LINE DELAY AND GATE DELAY - A memory tracking circuit controls discharge duration of a tracking bit-line based on (i) a signal received at the far end of a tracking row after a propagation delay and (ii) a signal applied to a transistor-based gate delay. The tracking circuit (i) extends the discharge duration when one or more of (a) the propagation delay and (b) the transistor-based gate delay is shorter than an uncontrolled discharge duration of the tracking bit-line, and (ii) does not extend the discharge duration otherwise. Based on the discharge duration, the tracking circuit activates a reset signal that resets a clock-pulse generator to switch the memory from an access operation to a recess state. Controlling the discharge duration, and consequently the reset signal, based on the propagation delay and the gate delay allows the clock-pulse generator to adjust access times to account for the memory array configuration and process, temperature, and voltage conditions. | 03-13-2014 |
