Title: Systeme et procede de commande de vehicule dans lesquels une gouverne et un compensateur automatique sont utilises
Inventor: BRISLAWN MARK G
IPC: B64C9/04
Filed: 2000-07-05
Abstract: L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés de commande pour un véhicule, tel qu'un aéronef ou un navire, dans lesquels on utilise une gouverne de bord de fuite pivotant autour d'une axe de pivot fixé par rapport au véhicule et défléchie de manière que des forces de commande soient créées, ainsi qu'un compensateur monté sur une extrémité arrière de la gouverne. Une extrémité arrière d'un câble de commande est reliée au compensateur par l'axe de pivot de ce dernier, et le câble de commande s'étend vers l'avant, jusqu'à une extrémité avant accouplée à un structure fixe du véhicule, de manière que la déflexion de la gouverne induise une déflexion du compensateur tant que l'extrémité avant du câble de commande n'est pas alignée avec l'axe de pivot de la gouverne, la position en ligne définissant une position neutre du câble de commande. Un vérin de commande est accouplé au câble de commande et est conçu pour positionner l'extrémité avant dudit câble à des distances variables sélectivement d'un côté ou de l'autre de la position neutre, des rapports de démultiplication variables étant produits entre la gouverne et le compensateur automatique. Le rapport de démultiplication de la gouverne peut être modifié en fonction de la condition de marche du véhicule. Un autre système de commande comprend un actionneur de compensateur auxiliaire conçu pour induire la déflexion du compensateur en cas de défaillance du système d'actionnement qui défléchit la gouverne. Le compensateur peut être utilisé comme compensateur de commande, pour fournir la force motrice requise pour le déplacement de la gouverne, ou il peut être utilisé en tant que mini-gouverne, par blocage de la gouverne en position fixe.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des essais relatifs à l'évaluation de risque d'épisode thrombotique, qui reposent sur l'utilisation de lipides oxydés renfermant des phospholipides comme source de membrane, en essai de coagulation. On compare les résultats avec ceux d'un essai dans lequel des phospholipides sont utilisés comme source de membrane avec et sans protéine C activée ('APC'). On peut ainsi contrôler chez un patient la présence d'anticorps qui interfèrent spécifiquement avec la fonction d'anticoagulant de l'APC, en scénario de dépendance ou d'indépendance par rapport à l'oxydation. Il en découle une indication sur les risques encourus par le patient quant à la survenue d'épisodes thrombotiques veineux ou artériels.

apparatus (3) comprises a sucking unit (10) communicating
with a filter (11) and with a separation unit (12) where
the other end (5) of the duct (4) is arranged. In the
separation unit (12) the flexible duct (4) leads air and
solid particles that by gravity fall in a hopper (13)
whereas the dust is dragged through a duct (14) towards the
filter (11), where it is retained. For carrying out a
decontamination phase the end (6) of the duct (4) is put in
the garret room (1), and once operated the fan (10), an
operator can start decontamination simply bringing the end
(6) onto the zone to clean. The guano, normally dry, is
easily dragged away by the air flow through the free end
(6) and the duct (4). The removal of guano is quick and
effective. Dust is not raised any more and there is no need
of manual transport of the guano through the rooms of the
buildings.

Abstract: A method of detecting the occurrence of neuronal events in a brain with high
temporal accuracy and of distinguishing between contemporaneous neuronal events is
disclosed. In accordance with the illustrative embodiment of the present invention, two
or more stimuli are chosen and administered to a subject at a temporal interval apart.
Each stimulus causes a neuronal event in the brain of the subject, and if the two neuronal
events occur at the same time and at the same place, they interfere, which interference is
manifested by different physiological effects than are caused by either neuronal event
alone. When the interference is detected, the time interval between the first stimulus and
the second stimulus can be compared to a nominal range. If the time interval is outside of
the nominal range, then it suggests that a pathological condition exists. The illustrative
embodiment of the present invention comprises: stimulating a subject with a first
stimulus to cause a first event in the subject; stimulating the subject with a second
stimulus to cause a second event in the subject, wherein the second stimulus occurs at a
temporal interval, Δ t n   , after the first stimulus, and wherein the first event and the second
event jointly affect at least one characteristic of a first physiological effect at a first
region of the subject as a function of the temporal interval, Δ t n   ; and measuring the at least
one characteristic of the first physiological effect at the first region of the subject.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a null mutant
non-human animal showing salt intake behavior similar to that of
wild-type animals under water-sufficient conditions and showing much
more intakes of hypertonic saline compared with wild-type animals under
water- and salt-depleted conditions, for example, an Na v 2 gene-deficient
non-human animal, which is useful as a model animal of
excessive salt intake experiments. 
     The object will be attained by following process: mouse genomic
libraries are screened with rat NaG cDNA as a probe, then Na v 2 gene
of genomic DNA is isolated, and a targeting vector is constructed by
inserting marker gene such as neo gene into the exon of Na v 2. After
thus constructed targeting vector is induced to ES cells, homologously
recombined ES cells are selected, then germ line chimeric mice are
constructed with this ES cells strain, and they are hybridized with
the wild-type mice and heterozygous mutant mice are obtained. By
intercrossing of thus obtained heterozygous mutant mice, Na v 2 knockout
mice are constructed.

Abstract: Digital information is processed for transmission in a communication system
using a hidden puncturing technique. The digital information is encoded using a
channel code having at least one puncturing pattern associated therewith. The
puncturing pattern is preferably a rate compatible puncturing pattern. In accordance
with the invention, there is no puncturing of the channel code applied at a transmitter
side of the system. Instead, the resulting channel coded bits are assigned to different
sections of a digital sideband or other portion of a frequency spectrum of the system,
based at least in part on the puncturing pattern. The coded channel bits are then
transmitted through the system in the assigned sections, and can be decoded at different
code rates in a receiver of the system depending on which of the sections are used in
the decoding process. By allowing different sections to be erased and the decoding to
proceed at a corresponding higher code rate, the invention alleviates the effects of
partial-band interference in the system.
