Abstract: L'invention concerne un poussoir utilisé pour pousser des noeuds de fil de suture (200) en direction d'une incision pratiquée dans un vaisseau ou dans un organe d'un patient, qui comprend un élément allongé (124) qui vient en contact avec les noeuds. Un segment (194) du fil de suture est fixé à un élément de raccordement (100) de fil de suture qui tire ledit segment (194) à travers la lumière de l'élément allongé (124). On fait avancer des noeuds consécutifs en direction de l'incision en les poussant à l'aide de l'élément allongé (124), tout en tenant une extrémité ou les deux extrémités du fil de suture.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un accélérateur linéaire, de préférence de type monochromatique, accélérant des électrons à une énergie d'environ 10 MeV pour les diriger sur une cible Z élevée telle que du tungstène afin de produire des rayons gamma qui sont dirigés sur le matériau combustible tel que U238, ce qui provoque la réaction (η,f) et libère environ 200 MeV. Un réacteur construit selon ce principe et nécessitant un accélérateur entraîné par 1 MW produit environ 20 MW d'énergie. La réaction n'est pas autonome et s'arrête lorsque le faisceau est stoppé. On peut utiliser ce réacteur entraîné par accélérateur pour « brûler » du combustible rejeté par des réacteurs de fission simplement en le faisant fonctionner à 10 MeV. La photo-fission permet de transformer, en produits à vie courte ou en produits stables, des déchets combustibles rejetés tels que Cs?137 et Sr90¿ qui subissent une photodésintégration par la réaction (η,n).

Title: Low speed modem transmission over packet networks
Inventor: GEORGE EDWARD
IPC: H04M11/00
Filed: 2001-12-28
Abstract: The modem relay (3,9) provides a local interface to the
modem (2,14) on both ends of a call, demodulates the full duplex
data stream, packetizes the bits for transport over an IP
network (8), and remodulates the data stream at the remote end.
The modem relay (3,9) negotiates a best supported rate and
modulation. If no common rate and modulation is supported by
the modems (2,14) at each end of the communication, the modem
relay components (3,9) will establish independent connections to
the modems (2,14) at each end and transmit the information
across the packet network (8). The modem data stream can also
be transported in a redundant fashion, which allows for seamless
error recovery in the event of single or double packet loss
events. Since the data stream can be completely recovered after
packet loss, the remote modem (2,14) is able to recreate the
local modem's (14,2) transmission exactly.
