Abstract: A slurry casting process is described capable of produ­
cing crosslinked double base propellant having improved burn­
ing rates and high specific impulse. Such propellants can be 
formulated to be smokeless. Improved burning rates are 
achieved by incorporating into a slurry of double base compo­
sition, casting powder granules containing 20% to 75% by 
weight of small particle ammonium perchlorate. The casting 
powder granules substantially retain their identity in the cured 
propellant matrix. The casting powder granules have a high 
burning rate and are uniformly distributed throughout the 
propellant. The granules are responsible for increasing the 
burning rate of the entire crosslinked double base propellant 
composition of the invention.

Abstract: A microwave balun using TEM wave guides, consists of 
two second-order reactance sections of electrical lengths 
equal to about a quarter of the wavelength of a radiofrequency 
signal comprising an unbalanced input-port and a balanced 
output-port. Each section (I, II) comprises two strips of micro­
strip-like wave guides, placed in such a way above the ground 
plane being the bottom metallization (0) of the lower layered 
substrate (3) that one of the guides (1, 2) is on the top side of 
the lower substrate, and the other guide (1′, 2′) placed there­
above is separated therefrom by the material volume of the 
upper layered substrate (4) and is on the top side of the upper 
substrate. The pair of guides, any one from each section, being 
the pair of input guides (1, 2) is connected with each other by 
two ends (12, 21), while one of the two remaining ends (11) 
thereof is connected to the input-port (10), and the other one 
(22) is terminated for a radio-frequency signal by a reflecting 
element. The second pair of the remaining wave guides (1′, 2′) 
being the pair of output guides, forms with two ends (12′, 21′) 
thereof, one from each section, a pair of output-port terminals. 
Each of the remaining ends (22′, 11′) of the pair of output 
guides is terminated for a radio-frequency signal by a reflecting 
element, whereby phases of the said reflecting elements are 
dependent on the configuration choice of the input and the 
output-ports and the phase choice of the reflecting element 
terminating the end of input guides, the opposite one to the in­
put. The cross-section dimensions and material constants of 
materials used have the values dependent on the required 
broadband properties according to the set of transmission-re­
flection parameters of the balun and the required input and 
output impedance.  
     The balun design according to the invention is designed for uti­
lization within the frequency range of 1-18 GHz.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining optical power 
attenuation across a splice between first and second optical 
fibers utilizes the algorithm:  
dB = 10 log(I-L tel ) (2)  
where L tel  is determined by compensating for differences in in­
tensity profiles existant in the first optical fiber when injecting 
light therein for purposes of measuring attenuation versus the 
intensity profile created when injecting light into the first fiber 
for transmitting telecommunications data and the light has 
been propagating in the fiber for a distance and steady state 
intensity distribution is achieved. Preferably, a numerical aper­
ture of the first optical fiber and a sample optical fiber are em­
pirically determined, and L tel  is calculated by compensating for 
differences between these numerical apertures.

Abstract: A spark control apparatus (1) for an internal combustion 
engine using a breaker point (3) or solid state (5) ignition to 
control current to an ignition coil (11). The waveform of the 
ignition signal from the ignition system is applied to a conver­
ter section (35) of the apparatus to convert the signal 
waveform to a predetermined waveform. A sensor (25) sen­
ses engine vibration and generate a representative electri­
cal signal which a signal processor (41) processes to deter­
mine engine knock by comparing the peak and average val­
ues of  the signal. A delay circuit (45) delays termination of 
current to the ignition coil and thus the ignition timing as a 
function of the comparison of the peak and average values of 
the control signal. When there is no knock, the timing slowly 
returns to normal. A driver (50) responds to current signals 
to control current  to the ignition coil. The driver is shut off 
when the engine is not running to reduce current drain. A first 
transistor (Q12) switches on and off when the engine is run­
ning and is off when the engine is not running. A second 
transistor (Q13) turns off the driver when the transistor is on. 
A controller (Q17, C14, R48 and R49) controls this transistor 
to turn it on when the engine is not running. The controller 
responds to changes in operating states of the first transistor 
to switch the operating state of the second transistor.

Abstract: In order to be able to control the level of orientation and 
predetermine the tensile failure position of a plastics material 
mesh structure when in use, as well as to obtain higher stretch 
ratios and higher production speeds, specially-shaped holes (2) 
are used when stretching a perforated starting material to form 
a mesh structure having molecularly-orientated strands. The 
holes define strand-forming zones (3) which have a centre part 
(x₂) of greater width than end parts (x₁); orientation is initiated 
in the end parts (x₁) and travels towards the middle until the 
whole of the strand-forming zone (3) has been stretched out to 
form a molecularly-orientated strand. It is found that in the 
molecularly-orientated strand, there are three portions in 
which the middle of the strand has moved away from the ends 
of the strand during stretching the same distance as the edges 
of the strand, these portions corresponding to the end and 
centre parts (x₁, x₂); in between, the middle of the strand has 
moved away from the respective end during stretching a differ­
ent distance to the edges of the strand.
