Abstract: Frame Element Positioning in Frames of a Bitstream Representing Audio Content Abstract A better compromise between a too high bitstream and decoding overhead on the one hand and flexibility of frame element positioning on the other hand is achieved by arranging that each of the sequence of frames of the bitstream comprises a sequence of N frame elements 10 and, on the other hand, the bitstream comprises a configuration block comprising a field indicating the number of elements N and a type indication syntax portion indicating, for each element position of the sequence of N element positions, an element type out of a plurality of element types with, in the sequences of N frame elements of the frames, each frame element being of the element type indicated, by the type indication portion, for the 15 respective element position at which the respective frame element is positioned within the sequence of N frame elements of the respective frame in the bitstream. Thus, the frames are equally structured in that each frame comprises the same sequence of N frame elements of the frame element type indicated by the type indication syntax portion, positioned within the bitstream in the same sequential order. This sequential order is commonly adjustable 20 for the sequence of frames by use of the type indication syntax portion which indicates, for each element position of the sequence of N element positions, an element type out of a plurality of element types. mEEE i-a)0 = CD C~Ii ICI c-D IID III C~i ClD E I CZ ii

Title: Lowering buoyant structures in water
Inventor: BOMBINO STEPHANE
IPC: F16L1/16
Filed: 2016-02-11
Abstract: A method of lowering a hollow structure 10 through water and installing that structure at a subsea location 16. The structure has an internal space containing a ballast material 26 such as sea salt that is substantially denser than water. Upon being lowered with the aid of the ballast material 26 to a subsea destination 16, the structure 10 is anchored at that destination. Then, water is introduced into the internal space to dissolve, suspend or dilute the ballast material 26. Thus dissolved, suspended or diluted, the ballast material 26 is evacuated or dispersed from the internal space in a liquid or fluidised form. For example, a solution or suspension of the ballast material 26 may be entrained in a flushing flow of water through and from the internal space. The internal space is then available to perform another, primary function in subsea operation of the structure 10, for example as a flowline to convey oil or gas.

Title: Apparatus for tightening threaded fasteners
Inventor: KOPPENHOEFER PETER
IPC: B25B21/00
Filed: 2016-05-31
Abstract: According to a first aspect of the invention we provide a low clearance face tooth ratchet assembly for link drive means of hydraulic torque tools. The face tooth ratchet assembly includes: a drive plate having piston engagement means at a first end and a machined face gear with radial serrations at a second end; and a ratchet drive having a machined face gear with corresponding radial serrations at a first end and a threaded fastener engagement means at a second end. Advantageously the low clearance face tooth ratchet assembly minimizes volume and mass of the tool. Only one drive plate is necessary which is tapered from a first end to a second end. Further, side plates of the link drive means are tapered from a first end to a second end. Such geometry minimizes the width of portions of the link drive means making the second end, adjacent the threaded fastener engagement means, substantially thinner than the first end, adjacent the piston engagement means. Higher torque values are transferred in a smaller enclosure via only two parts. Notably no drive and/or reaction pawl is necessary as the teeth of the drive plate and the ratchet drive achieve full facial engagement. The design of the connection coupling is backlash-free, maximizes tool safety, minimizes risk of failures/fatigue from wear, bending, scuffing and cracking, and is suitable for changing forces.
