International Classification:

G06F 17/10
G06G 7/78
G08G 1/16

US Classification:

701301, 52578

Abstract:

A Guided Soft Target (GST) system and method provides a versatile test system and methodology for the evaluation of various crash avoidance technologies. This system and method can be used to replicate the pre-crash motions of the CP in a wide variety of crash scenarios while minimizing physical risk, all while consistently providing radar and other sensor signatures substantially identical to that of the item being simulated. The GST system in various example embodiments may comprise a soft target vehicle or pedestrian form removably attached to a programmable, autonomously guided, self-propelled Dynamic Motion Element (DME), which may be operated in connection with a wireless computer network operating on a plurality of complimentary communication networks. Specific DME geometries are provided to minimize ride disturbance and observability by radar and other sensors. Computer controlled DME braking systems are disclosed as well as break-away and retractable antenna systems.

This system and method can be used to replicate the pre-crash motions of the CP in a wide variety of crash scenarios while minimizing physical risk, all while consistently providing a sensor signature substantially identical to that of the item being simulated. The GST system in various example embodiments may comprise a soft target vehicle or pedestrian form removably attached to a programmable, autonomously guided, self-propelled Dynamic Motion Element (DME), which may be operated in connection with a wireless computer network. Specific geometries for the DME have been discovered that minimize the risk of the DME flipping up and hitting or otherwise damaging or disrupting the ride of typical test vehicles during impact of the test vehicles with the GST, all while minimizing the effect of the DME on the sensor signature of the GST.

Abstract:

A casing for the thermal management and protection of an electrochemical cell, the casing comprises a first material, an inner surface configured to be in physical contact with an electrochemical cell, wherein the inner surface is substantially solid at room temperature; and a polymer matrix dispersed within the first material and comprising two or more temperature management materials. At least one of the two or more temperature management materials comprise a phase change material having a latent heat of at least 5 Joules per gram and a transition temperature between 0 C. and 100 C., and an elastomeric material. The polymer matrix is substantially homogeneous, and in an environment where the electrochemical cell and a second electrochemical cell operate under the same charging and discharging conditions, the casing reduces a first operating temperature of the electrochemical cell by at least 10 C.
