Abstract: The air conditioning system for a rail vehicle, road vehicle or aircraft comprises an input air circuit incorporating heating and a cooling circuit coupled by an air-to-air heat exchanger. In the context of a rail vehicle (10), the vehicle inner space (12) is air-conditioned by an air-supported air conditioning system (14) with the appropriate plant being installed in a compact module-type housing, located in the ceiling area of the vehicle. The functional principle of the system involves the so-called ''open less than atmospheric pressure process''. The input air circuit (16) is coupled to a cooling circuit (18) by an air-to-air heat exchanger (20). In the cooling circuit, air coming from the outside atmosphere is expanded by a turbine (22) and in accordance with cooling requirements is stagelessly cooled to temperatures around 0 degreees Celsius. In the heat exchanger, heat emitted from the input air circuit is fed to the process. The air heated at low pressure is aspirated by a compressor (24), compressed and returned outwards to the surrounding atmosphere.

Abstract: Disclosed is an evanescent-wave-coupled microcavity laser in which a gain medium (120)
is positioned outside a circularly symmetric microcavity (110) having a size of a few tens of
microns to a few hundreds of microns to generate a laser oscillation using a gain medium
existing in the evanescent-field of a resonance mode. Particularly, a gain medium containing a
semiconductor, atoms, molecules, or quantum dots is placed outside the microcavity where
the evanescent-wave of the microcavity mode exists, to be excited by an electric or an optical
pumping. Fluorescence irradiated from the excited gain medium is coupled with the
evanescent-wave of the resonator mode to obtain a gain, so that amplification of light is
triggered. The amplified light circulates inside the microcavity through total internal
reflection to induce a stimulated emission of radiation from the excited gain medium in the
field of evanescent-wave so that a stable laser oscillation is established. Particularly, the
present invention includes the evanescent-wave-coupled microcavity lasers using the
microspheres of extremely low energy loss, microdisks or microcylinders capable of being
large-scale integrated.

Abstract: A Web site address management apparatus (1) is
disclosed that automatically executes updating of a URL
list (22). The address management apparatus detects
connection trials made by a browser for connection to
Web sites, and records the number of instances of
success in connection (instances of reference) and the
number of continuous occurrences of connection failure
with respect to each of URLs of the Web sites. If a
URL addition condition is satisfied by the number of
instances of reference in a predetermined time period
with respect to one of the URLs, the address management
apparatus (1) adds the URL to the URL list (22). If
the number of instances of reference in a predetermined
time period with respect to one of the URLs is smaller
than a predetermined number, the address management
apparatus (1) deletes the URL from the URL list (22).
Further, when the number of continuous occurrences of
connection failure with respect to one of the URLs
becomes equal to a predetermined number, the address
management apparatus (1) deletes the URL from the URL

Abstract: A thermo-optic switch that reduces the difficulty in the
fabrication process and has an excellent optical crosstalk.
Variable optical attenuators (16,19) utilizing higher-order
mode generators are integrated to the output ports of a
conventional 1x2 digital Y-branch type waveguide switch which
uses mode evolution effect. Even when the Y-branch angle is
increased, the switch can maintain excellent crosstalk without
raising the switching power. A large Y-branch angle can reduce
difficulty in fabrication so that the production rate can be
increased. 1x2 optical switches are an essential device in an
optical signal processing system such as optical
communications, optical switches and optical sensors.

Filed: 2001-03-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de malaxage de la cire, qui conserve les propriétés désirées d'une cire de Fischer-Tropsch tout en adaptant la dureté de la cire selon une plage désirée. Le procédé utilise un effet synergique entre de la cire vierge dure de Fischer-Tropsch et de la cire de Fischer-Tropsch plus molle, à moitié isomérisée, dans un procédé de malaxage qui permet à l'artisan d'adapter la dureté d'un produit à base de cire selon des plages désirées. Le procédé consiste à passer de la cire de Fischer-Tropsch sur un catalyseur d'hydro-isomérisation dans des conditions préétablies, y compris à des températures relativement douces, telles que des conversions chimiques (p. ex. hydrogénation et isomérisation douce) s'effectuent à un point d'ébullition inférieur à 10 % (hydrocraquage), ce qui empêche de produire de la cire complètement isomérisée. Au moins une partie de la cire isomérisée obtenue est ensuite mélangée avec de la cire vierge dure non traitée.

Abstract: A frame erasure compensation method in a variable-rate speech coder includes quantizing, with a first encoder, a pitch lag value for a current frame and a first delta pitch lag value equal to the difference between the pitch lag value for the current frame and the pitch lag value for the previous frame. A second, predictive encoder quantizes only a second delta pitch lag value for the previous frame (equal to the difference between the pitch lag value for the previous frame and the pitch lag value for the frame prior to that frame). If the frame prior to the previous frame is processed as a frame erasure, the pitch lag value for the previous frame is obtained by subtracting the first delta pitch lag value from the pitch lag value for the current frame. The pitch lag value for the erasure frame is then obtained by subtracting the second delta pitch lag value from the pitch lag value for the previous frame. Additionally, a waveform interpolation method may be used to smooth discontinuities caused by changes in the coder pitch memory.
