Abstract: Fiber-reinforced thermosetting polyester composites containing in excess of 30 wt %, based on the weight of the composite, reinforcing fiber, are made by a vacuum-assisted transfer molding technique from a 1-phase composite matrix precursor comprising a polyester, a reactive monomer, and a low-profile additive. The polyester has a molecular weight/double bond factor of between about 150 and 190, styrene is a preferred reactive monomer, and a preferred low-profile additive is a thermoplastic polymer with a weight average molecular weight in excess of 3,000 and which is miscible in the polyester and reactive monomer. The polyester composite is formed by coating the surface of a mold with a gel coat; applying a skin laminate over the partially cured gel coat; applying a fiber reinforcement to the skin laminate; closing the mold; and injecting the 1-phase matrix precursor while the mold is under vacuum. The hallmark of these composites is their combination of physical strength as measured by one or more standard strength tests for composites and smooth surface profile as compared to the thermosetting polyester composites made from a typical hand lay-up or spray up process, or a conventional vacuum-assisted transfer molding process.

Abstract: The device has two rotatable crusher rollers (3,4) whereby one is movable and can be moved to a different height from the other fixed roller (3). An opening (15) is simultaneously released in the machine stand (1) to discharge the material which cannot be crushed. The rotary direction of at least one roller is reversed at least once for this ejection. The ends of the movable roller are mounted in slide blocks which are displaceable in parallel slits in the machine stand. The slide blocks are guided by lift elements (7) into a position where a steep plane (E-E) containing the axes (A,B) of the two rollers is formed with the movable roller lower. The opening is provided on the side of the roller remote from the rolling gap.

Abstract: A new peptide,  kappa -conotoxin PVIIA, is disclosed. This peptide is found naturally in the cone snail Conus purpurascens and has the amino acid sequence Cys-Arg-Ile-Xaa-Asn-Gln-Lys-Cys-Phe-Gln-His-Leu-Asp-Asp-Cys-Cys-Ser-Arg-Lys-Cys-Asn-Arg-Phe-Asn-Lys-Cys-Val (SEQ ID NO:1) where Xaa represents 4-trans-hydroxyproline hydroxyproline or proline. This peptide together with a previously disclosed peptide,  delta -conotoxin PVIA, act synergistically to rapidly immobilize fish which are injected with the two peptides. Injection of  kappa -conotoxin PVIIA alone results in different symptoms with an injected fish becoming hyperactive and then contracting and suddenly extending all major fins. This "fin-popping" occurs repeatedly resulting in a series of jerky movements, but injection of only  kappa -conotoxin PVIIA does not immobilize or kill the fish.

Les ouvertures peuvent être ménagées dans la surface du substrat ou dans une ou dans plusieurs couches déposées sur la surface du substrat sacrificiel. Chaque élément de contact à ressort possède une portion extrême de base, une portion extrême de contact et une portion corps central. La portion extrême de contact est décalée suivant l'axe des z (à une hauteur différente) par rapport à la partie corps central. La partie extrême de base est de préférence décalée dans un sens opposé le long de l'axe des z par rapport à la partie corps central. De cette manière, plusieurs éléments de contact à ressort sont fabriqués suivant une relation spatiale prédéterminée les uns par rapport aux autres sur le substrat sacrificiel. Les éléments de contact à ressort sont montés de manière appropriée par leur portion extrême de base sur des bornes correspondantes d'un composant électronique tel qu'un transformateur spatial ou un dispositif à semiconducteur, après quoi le substrat sacrificiel est éliminé de sorte que les extrémités de contact des éléments de contact à ressort s'étendent au-dessus de la surface du composant électronique.

Abstract: A hot tip nozzle assembly for injection molding plastic components comprises a nozzle housing defining a hot runner passage and a nozzle tip section which is received in the hot runner passage. The nozzle tip section defines a hot runner tip passage in flow communication with the hot runner passage. The nozzle tip section slides freely within the hot runner passage during injection molding. A stop is provided on the nozzle tip section to limit downward movement relative to the cavity gate and automatically position the nozzle tip relative to the injection gate of the mold. In addition, axial thermal expansion of the nozzle housing is not imparted to the nozzle tip section. The nozzle tip section also has a restricted length that can axially thermally expand. Accordingly, the position of the nozzle tip is only minutely affected by even larger temperature changes in the nozzle assembly. This controlled thermal expansion together with the sliding movement of the nozzle tip section relative to the nozzle housing maintains the nozzle tip at a substantially constant position during the injection molding operation and minimizes vestige formation in the molded components.

Abstract: A method of producing images of the limits of a geologic reservoir from measurements of fluid pressure in a well controlled to produce from the reservoir at a constant flow rate. The measurements are taken over a period of time, which includes initiation of well flow and recorded in a plot of well pressure v. time. The method includes detecting abrupt changes in slope of the pressure v. time function, where each abrupt change signifies the arrival of a primary shock wave at a discrete section of a boundary limit of the reservoir; and calculating the minimum radial distance to the discrete section from the well bore as a function of wave travel time. The changes in the slope of the pressure v. time function are used to calculate the curvature of the boundary at the minimum radial distance. The angular disposition of each discrete section or reservoir limit is then adjusted about the origin and adjustably re-positioned on its point of contact with its associated distance radial limits to provide with the other discrete sections, a simulation of the reservoir boundary. Observations from multiple wells reduce any ambiguity in the interpretation.
