Abstract: Liquefied natural gas is stored in an insulated tank 4, typically forming part of an ocean going tanker. Boiled off vapour is compressed in a compressor 20 and at least partially condensed in a condenser 50. The resulting condensate is returned to the tank 4. The vapour is mixed with liquefied natural gas in a mixing chamber 32 upstream of the compressor 20. The liquefied natural gas so mixed with the vapour in the mixing chamber 32 is taken from the condensate or from the storage tank 4. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of performing packet level transmission scheduling in a communications system including a plurality of cells, each cell including a base station (104) and a plurality of mobile stations (108, 110, 112). The method performs scheduling while considering radio resource allocation at the wireless access node. In a schedule plan phase of the method, average power and average effective data rate are determined for all mobile stations in the system. In addition, the planned fraction of frames  rho  that each mobile in the system will transmit is determined so that resources are allocated fairly. In the actual schedule phase of the method, current power and effective data rate values are compared to the average power values. This information along with the  rho  values is used to determine the actual schedule of packet transmissions for all mobiles in a particular cell. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system comprises a track (26), a trolley (17), coupled to the track, a safety line (16) extending from the trolley to a harness, where at least a portion of the safety line is rigid, and a locking mechanism (31) on the trolley, allowing the trolley to move freely along the track in normal operation but automatically locking the trolley in the event of a fall. Preferably the safety line passes through a rigid tube (25) and is would onto a spring loaded reel (34) so that the line is extended and retracted as required, except in the case of a fall when it is automatically locked. When the track is vertical or inclined the rigid portion, or tube, maintains the trolley above the harness attachment point, thus minimising the fall distance (Figure 9). Further inventions include a safety harness, track assembly and folding guard rail.
