Abstract: The invention relates to a process for
detecting black bands (1, 2) in a video image. It is
characterized in that, in a luminance range
corresponding to low luminance values:
     it calculates, per line, a value relating to
a maximum number of occurrences, that is to say a
maximum number of points having the same luminance
value, for lines situated in the usual location of a
black band,   it averages this value over these lines,   it calculates a threshold dependent on this
average,   it compares the value relating to a maximum
number of occurrences obtained for a new line, with
this threshold.   
     Applications relate, for example, to the
detection of the "letterbox" format.

Abstract: Concrete article production comprises: forming a concrete mixture containing a surfactant that imparts to added water a surface energy below 50 mJ/m<2>; casting the mixture in a mold whose walls do not have a hydrophobic demolding agent coating and which have surface energy below 35 mJ/m<2>; and curing under conditions to optimize demolding and the plain quality of the surface. Curing is carried out at a humidity level and for a duration sufficient to optimize demolding and the plain quality of the surface. The concrete mixture also includes: (a) a fine powder in order, to obtain a granular packing effect, and which reacts with the hydration products of an hydraulic binder contained in the concrete mixture; and (b) at least one plasticizer or super-plasticizer to obtain a dispersing and rheological effect. The concrete mixture also includes aggregate in amount above 10 weight %. The surfactant can also be the plasticizer or super-plasticizer and has a hydrophilic/hydrophobic amphoteric nature. The concentration of surfactant and, if necessary, plasticizer or super-plasticizer in the mixture is above the threshold for absorption saturation on the surface of the different solid particles of the mixture. The fine powder (a) is based on silica which is reactive in a pozzolanic manner with the hydration products of the hydraulic binder. The mold walls and the nature and amount of the surfactant are selected such that the wetting angle of a drop of pure water added in proportion to the surfactant and applied on the walls is less than or equal to 65 degrees . The mold walls are based on a polymeric material or are coated with a polymeric material. Independent claims are given for: (i) use of the above process to manufacture covering, siding, partitioning or flooring elements in a building, or urban structural elements, or stamping tools; and (ii) a concrete article manufactured by the above process from a mixture using cement as a binder and including the silica-based powder.

Abstract: Variable displacement pistons are produced wherein hollow piston bodies are integrally formed with associated actuator arms to ensure proper alignment of the bodies and rods. The process utilizes a two-axis press to first form a pair of actuator arms by working a blank of metallic material along a first axis between opposing members of a die assembly. With the die assembly still closed after formation of the actuator arms, a pair of hollow piston bodies are formed by extruding the remainder of the blank of metallic material along a second axis. The hollow piston bodies are axially aligned and integrally formed with respective ones of the actuator arms. A piston head is welded to the end of each hollow piston body which is then machined. By separating the actuator arms from one another, a pair of variable displacement compressor pistons having hollow piston bodies axially aligned and integrally formed with respective actuator arms are thus formed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for purifying mixtures of substances by means of optionally fractional crystallization. During the crystallization process, impurities can precipitate in addition to the desired product, since these are present in such high concentrations that the limit of solubility is exceeded. According to the inventive method, a solvent or a mixture of solvents with a strong affinity to an impurity with a tendency to precipitate is added to the mixture of substances or the melt to be purified so that the corresponding impurity is kept in solution. If there are several impurities with a tendency to precipitate, some of the impurities can be kept in solution by adding a suitable solvent and the remainder can be separated by mechanical means, e.g. filtering by suction, centrifugation, etc.

Abstract: An uncoordinated frequency hopping cellular system includes a mobile unit and a number of base stations. The mobile unit determines information pertaining to a set of base stations that are within a geographical region defined by a location of the mobile unit, and supplies, to at least one of the base stations in the set, the information pertaining to at least one other base station in the set. The information may include address information corresponding to the set of base stations, and may include clock offset information representing a difference between a clock value associated with at least one of the other base stations in the set. As different mobile units supply information to the base station, the base station accumulates information about other base stations in the system. The base station supplies this accumulated information to mobile units, so that they may readily have information (e.g. address and/or synchronisation information) for more readily establishing communication with base stations that they have not yet encountered.
