Abstract
The method and device to ensure the safety of people's life and health is based on the measurements of spontaneous electromagnetic radiation caused by the deformation from a structure or device, the nucleation and growth of plant cells and living organisms; calculating energy stored in a portion of the structure or cells based on the measured intensity; performing a comparison of the energy stored with a critical value for the structure and pathological changes in the cells; and indicate potential failure of the structure or the level of pathological changes based on the performed comparison.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- using a sensor to measure intensity of electromagnetic signals emitted from a structure;
- calculating energy stored in a portion of the structure based on the measured intensity;
- performing a comparison of the energy stored with a critical value for the structure;
- and
- indicating potential failure of the structure based on the performed comparison.
The computer-implemented method of claim 4, wherein the vehicle is a locomotive or rail car.
A system, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory including executable instructions that, if executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
- use a sensor to measure intensity of electromagnetic signals emitted from a structure;
- calculate energy stored in a portion of the structure based on the measured intensity;
- perform a comparison of the energy stored with a critical value for the structure;
- and indicate potential failure of the structure based on the performed comparison.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon executable instructions that, if executed by one or more processors of a computer system, cause the computer system to at least:
