Abstract: Welding current is supplied via connecting lines (20) and connectors (22) to the connectors (14) of the heating coil. Actual welding voltage is measured at the contact points of both coil connectors to eliminate corrosion-induced errors. Measurements are made with a measuring line (26) and tip (24) electrically isolated from the current supply lines (20) and their connectors to counteract any effects from the latter. An Independent claim is made for the heating coil welding system for the process in which each current supply connector (22) includes a voltage measuring tip (24) and measuring line (26) which are isolated from the main voltage supply lines (20) and can make a non-permanent connection with a tubular contact (14a) of the coil connector (14).

Abstract: In order to test whether a given signal of a complex circuit has the correct behavior, the method makes it possible to obtain in a computer memory a profile of states of other signals for which a state of the given signal is expected in a physical sample of the circuit. In order to minimize the processing time and the memory space required to obtain this profile, the method uses binary decision diagrams. Since the given signal can have more than two states (B, H, Z), the method generates at least two binary decision diagrams, a first binary decision diagram wherein the value at 1 indicates that the signal is in the first or in the second state, and a second binary decision diagram wherein the value at 1 indicates that the signal is in the second or in the third state.

Abstract: The present invention utilizes one or more processes to immobilize a waste that contains one or more of radionuclides, hazardous elements, hazardous compounds, and/or other compounds present in the waste. Each of the processes create a barrier against leaching and diffusion of the wastes. The first barrier is created by integrating the waste with an immobilizing mineral. The second barrier is a layer of non-radioactive or non-hazardous material that covers the first barrier. The second barrier may be created using an overgrowth procedure or by sintering. The third barrier is created by a rock or glass matrix that surrounds the first and/or second barriers. The fourth barrier is created by ensuring that the rock or glass has the same or similar composition as the indigenous rock at the disposal site. The resultant rock or glass matrix is in equilibrium with the groundwater or local hydrothermal solutions that are saturated with components of the indigenous rock of the disposal area.

A peer group name server may be a standalone name server that may be used in peer-to-peer applications and environments. A network computing platform may be used as a basis for establishing and operating a peer-to-peer network. A peer group name server may cache information about peers, peer groups and other entities. Peers may discover other peers, peer groups and other entities through the peer group name server. A peer group name server may serve as a reverse lookup provider. A peer group name server may act as a registrar for named entities (e.g. peers) in the peer-to-peer networking environment.

Abstract: A prosthetic component assembly (10), such as an acetabular cup, includes a shell (12) and a bearing insert or liner (14). The shell (12) and bearing insert are configured to provide an increased congruency between the shell (12) and the bearing insert thereby decreasing the amount of motion (i.e. micro-motion) between the shell (12) and the bearing insert. In one form, increased congruency is achieved through first (30) and second (44) (inner and outer) tapers that are respectively provided on the shell (12) and the bearing insert. The outer taper (44) has first and second outer taper portions. A relationship between the first outer taper portion and the inner taper (30) provides an essentially congruent fit, while a relationship between the second taper portion and the inner taper (30) provides an interference fit. The relationships between the inner (30) and outer (44) tapers allow the bearing insert to achieve load sharing at a dome of the outer shell (12) as well as at a rim of the shell (12). The relationships between the tapers (30,44) also allow relative motion between the shell (12) and the bearing insert to be controlled. Particularly, the relationships between the tapers (30,44) allow relative motion, or micro-motion, to be uniformly controlled below previous levels reported in the range of 10 micrometers or less between the bearing insert and the shell (12).

Abstract: A Li-ion polymer battery and methods for its fabrication. A first and second layer, of a polymer/particulate material composition, separate and bind each anode and cathode. The polymer of the first layer and its associated solvent differ from the polymer of the second layer and its associated solvent. Solubility requirements are such that the polymer of the first layer is non-soluble in the solvent of the second layer, and the polymer of the second layer is non-soluble in the solvent of the first layer. The polymers and particulate materials of the layers form a porous structure for containing the electrolyte of the battery so as to eliminate the need for a substantial case for enclosing the battery.

Abstract: A group communication method for a wireless information device, in which the method comprises the step of using an application independent object which defines or references members of a group in a way that enables communication to take place between two or more members of the group. The group object defines solely the identities of members of a group: as such, it is application (and hence also content) independent. This means that a group created in one application (e.g. a diary/agenda application could use that same group as the recipient list for an invitation to a meeting); a voice application could use that same group to allow a voice call to be conferenced across to all group members. Similarly, data specifically created for one group and in one application can be re-used in a different application and the data viewed appropriately for that different application.

Abstract: In general, the invention is directed to techniques for creating and controlling a magnetic field for use with electronic article surveillance (EAS) markers. In particular, the techniques make use of current switching devices to generate a signal having one or more current pulses for creating the magnetic field. An electronic article surveillance (EAS) system includes a coil to create a magnetic field for changing a status of an EAS marker and a drive unit to output a signal having one or more current pulses for energizing the coil. A programmable processor within the EAS system controls the drive unit to generate the output signal according to a desired profile. By selectively activating and deactivating current switching devices within the drive unit, the processor can direct the drive unit to generate the output signal according to a desired profile having a number of current pulses of different amplitudes and direction.
