Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the curved profiles of edges such as the trailing edges of engine blades. For this purpose, a laser beam (4) impinges directly on a surface region, which is to be measured, of the edge. The laser beam intensity over the cross-section of the laser beam is locally defined by a radiation intensity matrix (5) between a laser beam and the edge, and the radiation intensity values are varied (1). The laser beam intensity reflected by the surface region (7) to be measured is detected row by row in conjunction with different radiation intensity values along the curvature of the edge to be measured, and a curved profile is determined from these measured values via a computer program. The method is particularly suitable for measuring sharp edges such as knife edges, cutting tool edges or engine blade edges.

Abstract: The iron-aluminum alloy comprises the following constituents in atom percent: -12-18 aluminum -0.1-10 chromium -0.1-2 niobium -0.1-2 silicon -0.1-5 boron -0.01-2 titanium -100-500 ppm carbon -50-200 ppm zirconium - remainder iron. -  This alloy is distinguished by high thermal-shock resistance and, at temperatures of 800 DEG  C., still has comparatively good mechanical properties. The alloy can be used advantageously in components such as, for example, casings of gas turbines, which, with comparatively low mechanical loading, are subject to frequent thermal cycling.

Abstract: Waste materials which contain organic constituents difficult to grind are reacted by autothermic gasification with an oxygen-containing gasifying agent at temperatures above the melting point of the mineral and metallic constituents of the waste materials, above at least 1200@C, the gasification products formed being a CO- and H2-containing fuel gas, which is free of aromatic, polycyclic, heterocyclic or halogenated hydrocarbons, and a slag which has solidified from the melt and can virtually not be leached by water. The waste material to be gasified is rendered brittle by shock cooling with an inert cold carrier, is comminuted in this state and then introduced into the gasification reactor.

Abstract: (Object) To improve the drivability by controlling a target engine speed according to an engine load and a vehicle running condition to ensure an actual engine speed. (Constitution) In controlling a speed ratio of a continuously variable transmission, an adaptation factor A as an element for deciding a target engine speed is computed according to constants a and b, an average engine load  theta ths, and an average vehicle speed change quantity  DELTA Vs, i.e., by the expression of A = a theta ths + b  DELTA Vs. Even when the average engine load  theta ths changes because of fluctuation in an accelerator opening, various running modes can be decided by the adaptation factor A depending upon both the average engine load  theta ths and the average vehicle speed change quantity  DELTA Vs, thereby eliminating a feeling of discomfort upon changing a speed in the continuously variable transmission. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention is a dual reel cord take-up device for flat wire cable which has a generally semi-cylindrical upper and lower case half which snap together over a dual-purpose shaft to make two compartments. The first compartment is a cord take-up compartment which is divided in two by a slotted rib on the shaft in that compartment. Flat wire cable is received in both sides of the compartment through apertures in the walls of the compartment. In the second compartment is a flat coil spring fixed on its outside end to a generally cylindrical spring cup within said compartment, and fixed on its inside end to the dual-purpose shaft in that compartment. The spring cup is biased against rotation except to tighten the spring, so the shaft is continually under tension to rotate and retrieve the cable into the take-up compartment.

Abstract: Microspheres are prepared by a process comprising the steps of (i) spray-drying a solution or dispersion of a wall-forming material in order to obtain intermediate microspheres and (ii) reducing the water-solubility of at least the outside of the intermediate microspheres. Suitable wall-forming materials include proteins such as albumin and gelatin. The microsphere have walls of 40-500 nm thick and are useful in ultrasonic imaging. The control of median size, size distribution and degree of insolubilisation and cross-linking of the wall-forming material allows novel microsphere preparations to be produced. In particular, the microspheres may be 15-20  mu m, targeted to selected areas of the body or of prolonged life in the circulation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A fault tolerant storage controller utilizing tightly coupled dual controller modules. The controller modules each check to see if another controller module or cache module is present and, if so, then all configuration information with respect to the controller modules and attached devices are shared between them. Configuration information may be entered into either or both of the controller modules and the information is shared dynamically. Each cache module may be "locked" by an individual controller module to prevent the other controller module from inadvertently disturbing the contents of the other controller module's cache. During initialization, each controller module checks for the existence of an associated cache module and, if present, it is immediately "locked" by the controller module. Should a controller module fail or give an indication of a malfunction, the other controller module will disable or "kill" the malfunctioning controller module thereby resetting it and releasing any lock it may have had on its cache module. In those instances where the cache module is a write cache, the surviving controller module can resume operations where the malfunctioning controller module left off and complete any remaining writes to the disabled controller module's storage devices preventing the loss of any host computer data. The controller modules are tolerant of the other controller module failing and then rebooting and the sequence of events is detected and recognized by the surviving controller module such that it does not disable the one that failed. The dual controller modules communicate asynchronously to verify that they are each operational and to exchange and verify configuration information and to provide operational status dynamically. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In this bicycle the pedal motion is transmitted on both sides by means of a drive train (10), via a deflecting means (5) arranged under the saddle, to the freewheels (33) in the rear wheel. The opposed peddling motion is produced by connecting the two drive trains via a further deflecting means (7) in front of the rear wheel.   The component parts comprising the pedals (8), the elements (20) and the rear wheel hub (32) are mounted on a common knock-out spindle (11), the driving mechanism and the drive trains (10) being accommodated in the frame in a manner such that they are protected from external influences and it being possible for them also to remain there when the rear wheel is removed. To change the transmission ratio the points (9) of engagement of the drive trains with the pedals (8) can be infinitely displaced by pivotable handlebars (2) via Bowden cables (50 and 51) . <IMAGE>
