Abstract: A molten-bath based direct smelting process and apparatus for producing metals from a ferrous material is disclosed. The process includes injecting feed materials being solid material and carrier gas into a molten bath at a velocity of at least 40 m/s through at least one downwardly extending solids injection lance having a delivery tube of internal diameter of 40-200 mm that is located so that a central axis of an outlet end of the lance is at an angle of 20 to 90 degrees to a horizontal axis. The feed materials injection generates a superficial gas flow of at least 0.04 Nm<SUP>3</SUP>/s/m<SUP>2 </SUP>within the molten bath at least in part by reactions of injected material in the bath. The gas now causes molten material to be projected upwardly as splashes, droplets and streams and form an expanded molten bath zone, with the gas flow and the upwardly projected molten material causing substantial movement of material within the molten bath and strong mixing of the molten bath. The feed materials are selected so that, in an overall sense, the reactions of the feed materials in the molten bath are endothermic. The process also includes injecting an oxygen-containing gas into an upper region of the vessel via at least one oxygen gas injection lance and post-combusting combustible gases released from the molten bath.

Abstract: A method of monitoring a call with a mobile terminal (MT) in an Internet Protocol (IP)-based network having a Gatekeeper that controls the network, a plurality of access routers that provide access to the network, and a Monitoring Station having monitoring facilities and a database of MTs to be monitored. When the MT sends an Admission Request message to the Gatekeeper, the Gatekeeper sends a query to the Monitoring Station asking whether the MT is to be monitored. The Monitoring Station sends a reply to the Gatekeeper indicating that the MT is to be monitored and providing an IP address where monitored packets are to be sent. The Gatekeeper then sends a monitoring request message to the access router associated with the MT. The request identifies the MT to be monitored, instructs the access router to monitor the MT, and provides a unique call identification (Call ID) and the IP address where monitored packets are to be sent. When the access router detects a packet associated with the MT, the router sends all packets associated with the MT to the Monitoring Station. The method also controls monitoring during intra-domain and inter-domain handoffs of the MT.

Last of all, the device includes a reaction chamber of given height and cross-section where the second emulsion coming from the pre-reaction chamber is injected through nozzles and another portion of olefin is injected in jet streams all over the cross-section and height of the reaction chamber. The reaction chamber is devised so that the second emulsion is circulated in a closed circuit and it has an outlet through which a balanced amount of reaction mixture is continuously discharged. All of said mixing chamber, emulsion chamber, pre-reaction chamber and reaction chamber are coaxially arranged one above the other in vertical position and altogether form a reactor with the prechamber being located at the bottom of the reactor and the reaction chamber on top thereof. A method for the production of alkylates by means of the above device is also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention provides a depth gauging system and a method for forming depth indicating bands on amorphous hard carbon coated dental tool bits and the like. The method uses a laser to process, treat or pseudo-etch selected surfaces of the coated tool bit. Advantageously, the laser pseudo-etching creates bands or indicia that substantially preserve or retain some or all of the desirable bulk properties of the hard carbon coating, for example, the corrosion resistance. Desirably, the bands provide visual differentiation during the preparation of an osteotomy in bone material which allows a surgeon to precisely control the depth of the osteotomy.

Abstract: A system and method for generating a lattice of points that respects features in a digital image. The method comprises a process for initializing the lattice, and a process for optimizing the configuration of that lattice with respect to the image features. The optimization process operates by adjusting points of the lattice to extremize a composite function of the spatial coordinates of the lattice points. The lattice points are interpreted as atoms. Each lattice point contributes a potential function to an atomic potential field. The image represents another potential field. The composite function is a weighted sum of the atomic and image potential fields evaluated at the lattice points.
