Abstract: An acoustic sensor module (10), contains groups of single sensor elements (11) within a fluid-tight enclosure (12). The enclosure (12) is bounded by a reinforced hosewall (13) and module end caps (14) at either end of the module (10). The sensors (11) are mounted in the centre of the enclosure using tubular foam spacers (15); smaller cylindrical foam spacers (16) fill the central space between sensors. Radial stiffness is provided to the spacers (15) by thin annular rings (17) held in location by fine strength cords (18). Thin flexible wires (19) connect the sensor elements (11) of each group to the pre-amplifying/multiplexing electronic package (20), the connecting leads (21) therefrom being brought out to the outer surface through a division between spacers (15). Data and power cables (22) are spirally wrapped around the outer diameter, with an over-wrap of fine fibre or plastic tape (23) to lock them into position. The connecting leads (21) to the electronic packages (20) are then spliced into their respective data/power cables (22). An inner jacket of flexible, low density, acoustically damping thermoplastic material (24) is then extruded over the assembly described above, encapsulating the data/power cables (22) and also enclosing strength members (25).

Abstract: The problem of formulating a dentifrice which is compatible with a bis-biguanide anti-bacterial agent, for instance chlorhexidine or alexidine, is solved by using a nonionic thickening agent; a nonionic surfactant; and an abrasive which is either a sparingly soluble salt, for instance calcium carbonate, (used in combination with an agent to suppress anion formation), or an essentially insoluble compound, for instance, a silica of low anion content, or a mixture thereof. Preferably, the composition has a flavour which is mainly aniseed, balanced by mints. Preferably during the preparation of a silica containing dentifrice, chlorhexidine and saccharin are added together at an early stage, prior to the addition of silica, to avoid the formation of lumps. Such dentifrices are useful in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of periodontal disease and caries.

Abstract: A catalyst support is formed from powders of silica, titania and vanadia and a silicate-based clay by applying a wet mixture of said powders to a support substrate, and then drying and calcining said substrate. When impregnated with platinum or palladium, the catalyst support reduces hydrocarbon and particulate emission in diesel exhaust and also prevents formation of mutagens in the exhaust. Advantageously, the catalyst support minimises reaction thereof with sulphur.

A prism (105) is acoustically coupled with the transducer (103) and with an acoustic waveguide (107) having a longitudinal dimension extending outwardly from the interior of the housing (101). The acoustic prism (105) is fixedly coupled with a proximate portion of the waveguide (107) so as to provide efficient transmission of the beam of acoustic waves between the prism (105) and the waveguide (107). Accordingly, The beam of acoustic waves is transmitted from the transducer (103), through the prism (105), and along the longitudinal dimension of the waveguide, to a distal portion of the waveguide. The distal portion of the waveguide is inserted into a remotely located patient's body under examination. The distal portion of the waveguide emits the ultrasonic beam, scanning the tissue of interest.

Abstract: In a method for forming an energy subtraction image a plurality of radiation images are recorded and a plurality of original image signals representing the radiation images are detected. A first image signal is generated which represents a first image primarily composed of pattern of first tissues from the original image signals. Thereafter, a first smoothed image signal is generated by processing the first image signal whereby the first smoothed image signal represents a first smoothed image in which noise components of the first image have been reduced. Then, the second image signal is generated by subtracting the first smoothed image signal from an original image signal, which second image signal represents a second image primarily composed of pattern of second tissue. For generating a second smooth image signal the second image signal is processed, whereby noise components of said second image are reduced. Finally, a new first image signal is generated by subtracting the second smoothed image signal from an original image signal, whereby the new first image signal represents a new first image primarily composed of the patterns of the first tissues.

Abstract: The field distribution determn. method uses a multiple channel field measuring arrangement with a number of spatially distributed sensors. These provide measurement values containing useful measurement values from the field source and interference measurement values from the interference source. Correction values are formed and superimposed on the measurement values to provide compensated measurement values. These are compared with similarly compensated comparison values. The latter are generated from a comparison field source by means of the field sensors. It is determined which comparison field source provides the best match of the pattern of compensated comparison values and the pattern of compensated measurement values. The pattern of measurement values is approximated by a correction coefficient. This contains a number of such terms of a function series that are essential for the spatial progression of the interference measurement values. In the correction function, at least one term is not contained which is essential for the useful measurement values but not essential for the interference values. Compensated measurement values are formed from the difference of the measurement values and the values at the point of the corresponding field sensors generated on the basis of the correction function. The comparison values are converted to compensated comparison values in the same way.

Abstract: A liquid crystal device is disclosed in which first projecting sections 38A are formed in a black matrix 38, and, on the color filter panel 13, second projecting sections 50 are formed in which a red color filter 46R, a green color filter 46G, and a blue color filter 46B are placed one upon another. Since the heights of the first projecting sections 38A and the second projecting sections 50 can be made, for instance, half of cell gap Ga, the rubbing process of orientation films 40 and 54 can be performed reliably. In this way, liquid crystal elements can be fully aligned, preventing the leakage of light. Further, since no transparent spacer is required, there is no leakage of light due to this. In addition, the projecting sections are formed by the processes for forming the color filter 46 and the black matrix 38.

Abstract: The ground base station informs an in-level for the ground system, an out-level from the ground system, a timer value and an edge information indicating the edge of the service area, in addition to the broadcast information. It assumes that the mobile station MS moves from position 31 to zone 26 at the edge in the service area, and then moves to position 33. At the position 31, when the received field strength of the ground system decreases, the edge information is not detected, so that the mobile station MS does not switch the communication mode to the satellite system immediately by setting the timer value to three minutes. At position 32, the edge information is detected, so that the mobile station MS sets the timer value to one minute, and sets the out-level to a lower value than the general value. When the field strength is equal to or less than the out-level even after the passage of one minute, the mobile station MS switches the communication mode to the satellite system. Therefore, mode switching does not flap. On the contrary, when the mobile station MS moves from position 33 to position 32, the mobile station MS sets the in-level to a larger value than the general value, so that the flapping of the mode switching is prevented.
