A method of separating a transparent mother sheet includes contacting a first surface of the transparent mother sheet with an open ended pressure assembly including a pressure vessel shell, thereby forming a shell cavity defined by the first surface of the transparent mother sheet and the pressure vessel shell, where the transparent mother sheet comprises a damage path. The method also includes removing gas from the shell cavity through a fluid removal outlet extending through the pressure vessel shell to reduce a cavity pressure in the shell cavity, thereby applying stress to the damage path to separate a portion of the transparent mother sheet along the damage path.

A method of making a glass article, for example a glass light guide plate comprising at least one structured surface including a plurality of channels and peaks. The glass article may be suitable for enabling one dimensional dimming when used in a backlight unit for use as an illuminator for liquid crystal display devices.

Methods and systems of customized and selective decoration of internal tube-like surfaces using pre-printed films with splinter resistant property are described. The method of adhering a film to an internal surface of a tube-like structure. The structure may have a hollow interior defined by the internal surface. The method may be carried out by providing a pre-printed film comprising first and second sides and an adhesive layer adhered to at least a portion of the first side. The pre-printed film may be positioned at least partially within the hollow interior with the adhesive layer positioned adjacent to the internal surface of the tube-like structure. The adhesive layer may be adhered to the internal surface of the tube-like structure.

A system and method for detecting defective cells in honeycomb bodies which includes a light source which launches and couples light into cells at a first end face of the honeycomb body, and a projection medium which receives the light at a second end face of the honeycomb body. The light source is preferably a collimated light source.

Collimated light method and system for detecting defects in honeycombs

A apparatus and method for detecting defects in a honeycomb body. In operation, the particulates emerge at an outlet end face of the honeycomb body through defects, if any, in the honeycomb walls and/or plugs and passes though a permeable member, such as a screen, where they are illuminated. The permeable member is disposed adjacent to and preferably in contact with the outlet end. Use of the permeable member improves the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) such that defects may be more readily detected. The permeable member preferably includes an anti-reflective surface.
