Abstract: The present invention relates to immunogenic compositions and vaccines for the treatment and prevention of Neisserial disease. Immunogenic compositions of the invention contain combinations of antigens selected from at least two different classes of antigens including adhesins, autotransporter proteins, toxins, iron acquisitions proteins and membrane-associated protein (preferably integral outer membrane protein)s. Such combinations of antigens are able to target the immune response against different aspects of the neisserial life cycle, resulting in a more effective immune response.

Abstract: A curved trocar for thoracoscopy to obtain a multidirectional vision and operativity of the pleural cavity with less discomfort to patients undergoing thoracoscopy under local anesthesia. The trocar consists of an external rigid cannula which short arm (1) continues through a 60°-70° curve (2) into a long arm (3) provided with blocking system (4); an internal stylet formed by a body (5) with blocking spheres (6), conic tip (7) and handle (8), in nylon or other resistant material. Introduced the short arm into the pleural cavity through the intercostals space, the stylet is removed and a flexible fiberoptic device may be introduced in the cannula. Inclinating and rotating the cannula altogether with the fiberoptic device, vision and operativity are multidirectional. It is also possible to insert a thoracostomic tube in the chosen position.

Abstract: A method for estimating the signal to noise ratio (=SNR) (³) of a modulated communication signal ( r   n  ) including a data symbol component ( s   n  ) and a noise component ( n   n  ), is characterized in that an intermediate SNR value      (     ³  ^    RDA     )       of the modulated communication signal is derived from a data assisted maximum-likelihood estimation, the assisting data not being known in advance but being reconstructed from samples of the modulated communication signal ( r   n  ), and that an estimated SNR value      (     ³  ^    RDA    ER     )       is determined by a controlled nonlinear conversion of the intermediate SNR value      (     ³  ^    RDA     )   .      This method allows an SNR estimation with high accuracy even for low numbers of processed samples.

Abstract: The procedure, in which a container (2) is filled with washed and ground olives and mixed to concentrate the oil droplets prior to extraction, includes a stage in which the oxygen content of the gas phase in the container is maintained at a predetermined level by the injection of one or more inert gases into the upper part of the container. Alternatively, the container can be filled with a gas phase first before adding the olive pulp. In either case, the volume of oxygen in the gas phase is set at between 6 and 12 per cent by volume, measured by probes (3) inside the container. The gases are fed into the container through pipes (11, 12) with valves (8, 9) linked to the probes via a control unit (5).

Abstract: A tube connecting apparatus that can carry out self reset operation without giving damage to the apparatus and that safety of an operator is considered. The tube connecting apparatus has an EEPROM memorizing information with respect to a connecting process state of tubes. When electric power is inputted, the apparatus judges whether power supply was shut off during tube connecting operation based upon the information memorized in the EEPROM with respect to the connecting process state of tubes and a detecting result of a wafer 41 according to a wafer position detecting sensor 421, and carries out reset operation. In the reset operation, the apparatus restarts and completes connecting operation (S620 to 632) by heating the wafer again to fuse the tubes adhered to the wafer (S614, 616). Error indication is displayed at a LCD display to secure connecting strength and the like (S634). A locking state is not cancelled during cooling time after heating of the wafer is stopped to secure safety (S628 to S632).

Abstract: A system for producing energy includes a solvent chamber, a pressure chamber and a semi-permeable barrier separating the solvent chamber from the pressure chamber. The solvent chamber holds a solvent, and the pressure chamber hold a solute solution comprising a solute dissolved in a solvent. The semi-permeable barrier is permeable to solvent molecules and impermeable to solute molecules. Solvent molecules effuse across the semi-permeable barrier into the solute solution of the closed pressure chamber to increase the pressure of the pressure chamber, thereby generating energy in the form of hydrostatic pressure. A conversion device may convert the increased pressure in the pressure chamber to energy. The solute solution may be expelled and recycled after use.

Abstract: A system and method for representing a two-dimensional spatial transformation that describes the transformation by an inverse mapped grid data according to selected geometry parameters (110, 120). The grid data for each coordinate is surface fitted on an array of rectangular patches defined in the output space using numerical techniques (130, 140). Error analysis determines whether a finer mesh resolution is required for surface fitting (150). The spatial transformation is then defined by the array of rectangular surface patches and the set of surface coefficients such that the spatial transformation can be executed through evaluation of the surface polymials, which also allow the transformation to be easily adjusted for scale changes and zooming and panning effects (160, 170, 180, 190).

Abstract: An engine (10) has a hydraulic system (28) that serves both fuel injectors (22) and hydraulic actuators (40) of an engine brake that brakes the engine by controlling exhaust gas flow during engine braking. Pressure of the hydraulic fluid is set by an injection control strategy when a brake control pressure strategy is inactive. When the brake control pressure strategy is active, braking of the engine occurs when hydraulic fluid is delivered to the actuators. The brake control pressure strategy signals pressure of the hydraulic fluid supplied to the one or more actuators that is in excess of a pressure determined by a brake control pressure strategy. The brake control pressure strategy then limits pressure of the hydraulic fluid.

Abstract: A flexible omnidirectionally reflective horse lead has a central portion, and mechanical attachment means to accommodate a bridal bit ring. The lead reflects an incoming light beam from a walker or horseback rider back in the direction from which it emanated, preventing dangerous encounters during dusk or nighttime hours. The omnidirectionally reflective elements may be incorporated in a horse harness, or in a halter suitable for horses roaming in a paddock or field. The reflective elements are created by surrounding a central braided rope of nylon or polyethylene fibers with a cylindrically braided reflective sleeve. The braided reflective sleeve is composed of narrow width reflective strips thermally bonded to a flexible polymeric sheet with attached corner cube or microsphere retroreflectors. Due to its braided construction, the reflective elements reflect light omnidirectionally over a large angle of acceptance, illuminating the horse harness or halter. An improved measure of safety is thereby provided for both the horse and the horseback rider.
