Abstract: The cable support system (3,4) for an offshore tower, with a tubular structure on the sea bed (9), has additional connecting cables (5) linking them together at the sides. The cable system allows the tower free side movements, with a lower initial stiffness applied to the tower by the cables. The cable geometry gives them faster movements in the water, to dampen tower movements.

Abstract: A device for displacing an object a certain distance is disclosed. In one particular context, the device may be used in a brake piston. The device features a driving member and an interconnecting member located between the driving member and the object being driven (e.g., the brake piston). The driving member and the interconnecting member form a friction joint between them. The friction joint is strong enough that the driving member can push the object back to a retracted position when it is no longer being actuated, but weak enough that the interconnecting member, and hence the object, can be pushed forward relative to the driving member when the driving member reaches a maximum forward position. This lets the object (e.g., the piston) automatically adjust its non-actuated position so the same amount of fluid is required to move the piston forward as associated brake pads get thinner.

Abstract: New technology is described to calculate and optimize a pre-distorter avoiding the need of time-alignment between input and output of the amplifier. An analog output spectrum is used to compute an optimum pre-distorter, either in digital or analog format. The output spectrum is used to optimize intermodulation performance rather than trying to match the input spectrum to the output spectrum. The output spectrum (except for a possible gain constant) can be used as input to the optimization procedure. Since the intermodulation products usually are of much lower amplitude than the carriers themselves, it can be taken as the input spectrum without major loss of confinement. Mathematical procedures to calculate a pre-distorter using only the output signal are outlined.
