Patent GB-2329749-A (GB)
Title: Digital recording and reproducing
Inventor: OLIVER RICHARD J
IPC: G11B27/10
Filed: 1998-09-21
Abstract: A system and method for playing and recording digital media such as digital audio allows for seamless punch-out (exiting record mode) during a recording session by continuing to transfer playback data for a sequence from mass storage 114 to a play buffer 118 simultaneously with transferring record data for the sequence into a record buffer 110 and the mass storage 114. This allows the user to seamlessly switch between record mode and playback mode, presenting only a negligible (if any) delay between the time the user requests punch-out and the time the user experiences the correct original playback data. This may be implemented as a digital audio playing and recording system providing seamless punch-out for multiple channels of digital audio using RAM buffers 110, 118 and rotating magnetic disk devices for storing the digital audio.

Title: Screening for predispositions to DNA repair disorders
Inventor: JACKSON STEPHEN PHILIP
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 1998-01-13
Abstract: Methods for the identification of individuals with a predisposition to a disorder in which DNA repair plays a role by screening for the presence or absence of a defect in XRCC4 and/or DNA ligase IV activity are claimed. The defect may be the ability of these proteins to interact with each other, or with other components of the DNA repair pathway.

Patent GB-2330906-A (GB)
Title: Temperature measurement process
Inventor: HAFFNER KEN-YVES
IPC: G01J5/00
Filed: 1997-06-24
Abstract: In a temperature measurement process for determining the adiabatic temperature of a flame, in particular in a gas turbine combustion chamber, the chimioluminescent radiation emitted by the OH and/or CH radicals in the flame is sensed by a spectrograph by means of an optical fibre. The spectrally resolved raw signal from the chimioluminescent radiation is then corrected and compared with a plurality of theoretically determined emission spectra until a theoretical emission spectrum matches the chimioluminescent spectrum. The Boltzmann temperature which corresponds to said matching emission spectrum is then associated to the chimioluminescent spectrum and the adiabatic flame temperature is derived from the Boltzmann temperature by correlation.

Title: Rubber products having better abrasion resistance
Inventor: DAILEY LARRY ROGER
IPC: C08F236/10
Filed: 1999-02-22
Abstract: This invention is based upon the unexpected discovery that the physical properties of rubber products made with styrene-butadiene rubber can be significantly improved by synthesizing the styrene-butadiene rubber by a process which comprises (1) charging water, a soap system, a free radical generator, 1,3-butadiene monomer and styrene monomer into a first polymerization zone; (2) allowing the 1,3-butadiene monomer and the styrene monomer to copolymerize in the first polymerization zone to a monomer conversion which is within the range of about 15 percent to about 40 percent to produce a low conversion polymerization medium; (3) charging the low conversion polymerization medium into a second polymerization zone; (4) charging an additional quantity of 1,3-butadiene monomer and an additional quantity of styrene monomer into the second polymerization zone; (5) allowing the copolymerization to continue until a monomer conversion of at least about 50 percent is attained to produce the latex of styrene-butadiene rubber; and (6) recovering the styrene-butadiene rubber from the latex. For example, improved abrasion resistance, compression set and tensile strength can be attained. These improved physical properties offer advantages in a wide variety of rubber products, such as windshield wiper blades, brake diaphragms, washers, seals, gaskets, tires, hoses, conveyor belts, power transmission belts, shoe soles, shoe foxing and floor mats for buildings or automotive applications.

Title: Downhole cutting separator
Inventor: RYAN JIMMY DON
IPC: E21B21/00
Filed: 1998-10-27
Abstract: A downhole cutting separator is disclosed. The separator can be mounted anywhere on the drillstring. The separator employs a seal (35) which directs the normally circulating fluid during the cutting or milling operation in through an internal passage (60) in the tool. The cutting-laden fluid passes though a slotted liner (16) where the cuttings drop out and are collected in a compartment (24) within the tool. The circulating fluid exits the tool into the annulus. The tools can be used in series so that the lowermost tool takes out the large cuttings, while an upper tool takes out the finer cuttings. Provisions can be made to bypass the tool should it become plugged with cuttings by using rupture discs or movable sleeves responsive to pressure differential. A portion of the body assembly (30) can be magnetic to further assist in removal of cuttings as the circulating flow passes through the tool.
