The present disclosure relates to methods for monitoring the health of a battery cell. Specifically, the method includes receiving, by a controller communicatively coupled a pressure sensor positioned proximate to a battery housing having an initial volume and an initial shape and containing a battery cell, a pressure value indicative of a current volume or a current shape of the battery' housing. The pressure sensor is configured to measure the pressure value indicative of the current volume or the current shape of the battery' housing. The method also involves comparing, by the controller, the pressure value to a predetermined threshold pressure value. The method further involves adjusting, by the controller and based on the comparison, at least one parameter associated with operations of the battery cell.

Provided is a device, method, and inspection system for collecting data in a fluid conduit. The inspection system includes a pig, wherein the pig is defined by at least a front end and a read end, the rear end being distally opposed to the front end along a longitudinal axis, a mount assembly secured to the rear end of the pig; and at least one sensor device removably coupled to the mount assembly.

A system for part location and long-range scanning of large additively manufactured structures and method for using the same. In some embodiments, the method for locating and scanning a three-dimensional (3D) object comprises scanning a first portion of the 3D object from a first position via a long-range scanner on a mobile platform, determining whether additional portions of the 3D object require scanning, moving the long-range scanner via the mobile platform to a second position based on said determination that additional portions of the 3D object require scanning, and aligning each portion of the scanned 3D object.

A multibend sensor is able to provide information regarding bending of the sensor data in a manner able to mitigate error propagation. A reference strip and a sliding strip are separated from each other by a spacer. Electrodes are located on the reference strip and the sliding strip. The bending of the multibend sensor will be reflected in the shifting of the sliding strip with respect to the reference strip and the measurements obtained from the electrodes.

An air-bearing chuck includes a nozzle portion and a gas channel portion. The nozzle portion is provided with a plurality of support force nozzles for generating an air cushion on a top surface of the nozzle portion. The gas channel portion includes a first gas channel configured to transmit a first gas to the plurality of support force nozzles to provide support force. Embodiments of the present application can implement that the first gas channel transmits the first gas to the plurality of support force nozzles to provide support force, and an air cushion is generated on the top surface of the nozzle portion by regulating gas flow of the first gas in the first gas channel, thereby keeping a supported object supported by the air cushion stably floating up on one side, away from the top surface of the nozzle portion, of the air cushion.

[Subject] To provide a size measuring device that can be readily handled and easily used for a size-taking process by even a user who has no specialized size-taking technique, a managing server, a user terminal and a size measuring system. [Means to Solve Problems] The size measuring system is provided with a size measuring device 10 that is attached to a user's body so as to measure the size of the user's body, and outputs sensor measurement information indicating the measured size or the like, a user terminal 20 operated by the user who measures the body and a managing server 30 that manages information or the like of the size and shape of apparel commodities, and based upon the sensor measurement information, supplies user size information corresponding to the information of the body size of the user and commodity retrieval results information corresponding to information about commodities that fit to the size to the user terminal 20.
