Abstract: The steering is designed for forming a desired value for a control of a force-steered axle (322) of an agricultural or forestry trailer/semitrailer (320). The trailer is linked to an agricultural or forestry towing vehicle (310), where a longitudinal axis of the towing vehicle and a longitudinal axis or a tongue of the trailer form a steering angle (gamma) around a coupling point (330). A steering angle of deflection of a steering axle (HA) of the vehicle is detected and used for forming a correction angle (beta) for correcting the control of the force-steered axle of a trailer. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing a forced steering for an agricultural or forestry trailer/semitrailer.

Abstract: Asymmetric loading within such machines as gas turbine engines can cause distortion of a casing surrounding a rotating assembly. Such distortion may cause rub and therefore inefficient energy usage and shorter operational life. By providing driver arms 112, 212, 312 which extend from radially extending links 113, 213 in a first or high pressure compressor inner casing 101, 201 to a second outer casing 108, compensation for asymmetric loading can be achieved. The casings 101, 201, 108, 208 are presented upon relatively stable bearing supports 102, 110 and therefore, reaction loads are compensated for in order to retain concentricity of the casing 101, 201.

Abstract: A residue image down- and/or up-sampling method and apparatus and an image encoding and/or decoding method and apparatus using the residue image down-and/or up-sampling method and apparatus are provided. The residue image downsampling method includes: generating a residue corresponding to the difference between an original image and a predicted image, for each image component of the original image formed with at least two or more image components; and downsampling the residue for each image component at a predetermined ratio. The residue image upsampling method includes: upsampling data downsampled from residue data of an original image; and restoring the original image by adding the predicted image to the upsampled residue of each component. According to the methods and apparatuses, a residue image is obtained by performing spatiotemporal prediction encoding first, and by sampling this residue image, loss of information occurring in the sampling process can be reduced. Since sampling is performed with a residue image obtained through a spatiotemporal prediction process, even when an original image that is not color transformed is directly encoded, sampling can be performed effectively. Also, the methods and apparatuses have an advantage that in addition to colors, sampling of any components can be performed effectively.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une nouvelle approche de l'augmentation du rendement en éthanol de la fermentation alcoolique par le biais d'une diminution de l'accumulation de biomasse en utilisant des enzymes de dégradation de l'ATP. La partie du gène de Saccharomyces cerevisiae SSBl codant pour le domaine cytosolique de l'ATPase du chaperon associé à un ribosome cloné dans la cassette d'expression sous le contrôle du promoteur du gène de la glycérol-3 -phosphate déshydrogénase (GPDl) a été introduite dans la souche BY4742 de S. cerevisiae. L'aptitude des souches recombinées à se développer et à produire de l'éthanol au cours de cultures de glucose anaérobie et aérobie a été testée. Les souches surexprimant le domaine de ATPase de SSBl ont présenté une diminution de la concentration d'ATP intracellulaire. Elles ont accumulé des quantités élevées d'éthanol et ont été caractérisées par une diminution de l'accumulation de biomasse par rapport à la souche de type sauvage à la fois dans les conditions anaérobie et aérobie. De la même façon, le gène de l'apyrase apy issu de E. coH codant pour la phosphatase hydrolysant l'ATP/l'ADP et le domaine de l'ATPase du gène SSBl de S. cerevisiae ont été co-exprimés sous le contrôle du promoteur de GALl inductible par le galactose. Les souches de S. cerevisiae recombinées ont révélé une légère réduction de l'accumulation de biomasse, tandis que l'activité ATPase spécifique, l'accumulation et le rendement d'éthanol pendant la fermentation alcoolique du galactose dans des conditions semi-anaérobies ont augmenté.
