Abstract: Selon un procédé d'analyse en fréquence de tonalités de frappe au moment où une rigidité d'un élément d'ondulation fixé par une force élastique a été frappée par un marteau ou un procédé de détection d'une réponse au moment où l'élément d'ondulation a été vibré, une précision suffisante ne peut être obtenue aux fins d'une estimation de rigidité. Une force de frappe est appliquée à une pluralité de positions à la surface de l'élément, ce qui permet la génération d'une pluralité de tonalités de frappe. Des quantités de caractéristiques sont obtenues à partir dune pluralité de tonalités de frappe. On obtient une quantité de caractéristiques moyenne en faisant la moyenne des quantités de caractéristiques. La rigidité de lélément dondulation est estimée à partir de la quantité de caractéristiques moyenne en utilisant une corrélation entre la rigidité de lélément dondulation et la quantité de caractéristiques moyenne.

IPC: G01N33/50

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of biomedical and pharmacological research, in particular to the area of immunology, allergies and autoimmune diseases. The inventors have shown that SWAP-70 is a higher-level regulator for STAT-6 and BCL-6, the regulator being specific for IgE production in B-cells by amplifying the effect of STAT-6 and antagonizing the effect of BCL-6. The inventors have observed no influence of SWAP-70 on the expression of other genes that are likewise regulated by STAT-6 and/or BCL-6. In summary, it can be concluded that SWAP-70 positively regulates IgE production by shifting the interaction of the two antagonists STAT-6 and BCL-6 with regulatory elements of the IgE gene in favor of the activator STAT-6. Based on said findings, the invention provides a screening method which allows for identifying novel active agents that specifically inhibit IgE production. The substances identified by the method according to the invention are particularly suited for treating IgE-induced allergies and IgE-dependent autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: Threshold-based zero-crossing detection is provided. A power phase threshold detector detects when absolute value of a voltage level of the electrical power rises above a non-zero voltage threshold and outputs a zero-crossing signal to a controller to indicate occurrence of the zero-crossing. Delaying the zero-crossing signal to the point when the absolute value of the voltage level of the electrical power rises above the non-zero voltage threshold ensures completion of the zero-crossing of the power phase prior to signaling the controller. The controller provides signals to a switching circuit for controlling switching of electrical power to a load based on the zero-crossing indications.

Abstract: A seeding control system and method to improve yield by minimizing overplanting and underplanting during planting operations. As the planter traverses the field, a precise seed placement map is created by associating the time of each seed pulse generated by the seed sensors with the location of a GPS unit. Based on the generated seed placement map, a stop-planting boundary is defined by previously planted seed or other field boundary such that when a swath of the planter crosses over the stop-planting boundary the swath controllers disengage the drivers of the corresponding seed meters to prevent planting of seeds. The swath controllers cause the drivers to reengage allowing planting to resume when the affected swaths pass out of the stop planting boundary.
