Abstract: A coupling for coupling together pipe sections comprises a
first coupling section (1) and a second coupling section (2)
that can be coupled to the first coupling section and can be
locked relative to the first coupling section in the direction
of coupling. The two coupling sections are each provided with a

Abstract: A tuned filter for connection to a busbar in a high voltage electric power
system. The filter incorporates a variable inductor (2); the variable inductor
(2) comprising a main winding (4), auxiliary windings (6-12) and switching
means (14-20) associated with each auxiliary winding (6-12). The auxiliary
windings are arranged to act in inductive series with respect to the main
winding, and the switching means (14-20) are used to selectively connect the
auxiliary windings in electrical series with the main winding, so allowing
the inductance of the inductor to be varied. To achieve enhanced variability
of the inductance (2), each auxiliary winding (6-12) has a number of turns
substantially equal to  x2 (n-1)   , where  n  is a positive integer corresponding to
the position of each auxiliary winding in the inductive series (6-12) of
auxiliary windings and  x  is also a positive integer. The switching means
(14-20) are preferably constituted such that each auxiliary winding (6-12) is
selectively connectable to the main winding (4) in any one of three
connection modes, comprising a first connection mode in which the
auxiliary winding assists the inductance of the main winding, a second
connection mode in which the auxiliary winding opposes the inductance of
the main winding and a third connection mode in which the auxiliary
winding is bypassed with respect to the main winding.

Abstract: The temperature of the tread surface part of a tire (20) is increased by running the tire
(20) in contact with a drum (26). The increase in the temperature of the tread surface part is
due to the heat of friction between the tread surface part and the drum (26). Because large
increases in temperature indicate that the friction is causing a large amount of wear, it is
possible to forecast with ease the amount of wear of the tire from the increase in temperature
of the tread surface part. The temperature of the tread surface part can be measured using a
thermography machine (14), and the wear in the tread can be determined by looking at an
image that shows the temperature.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for coding audio signals having M sound channels in
order to reduce the amount of audio data for transmission or storage. A comparison
device is used to compare the coding efficiency in intra-channel signal redundancy
reduction and the coding efficiency in inter-channel signal redundancy reduction in
order to select a more efficient coding process. In particular, the modified discrete
cosine transform (MDCT) process is used to compute the intra-channel coding
efficiency and the cascade discrete cosine transform of the MDCT coefficients is used
to compute the inter-channel coding efficiency. The efficiencies can be evaluated by
computing a gain or the cross-channel correlation coefficients in the audio signals of
the M sound channels.
