The invention is based on feeding the filler material flow first along a first channel, which is next divided into two separate channels that are branched aside from the first channel. The forked branches can further be divided into a plurality of branches, and according to an advantageous embodiment, the manifold of feed channels exits into a feed nozzle of shielding gas and powderized filler material. The nozzle is provided with a plurality of grooves along which the gas and powderized filler material enter the welding plasma of the torch, and the gas flow becomes laminarized. The shielding gas and the filler material can be fed along a single manifold of channels and the tip of the torch can be made extremely small in size.

The mass spring system includes an anti-roll/pitch mechanism including a spring. The spring has a first end coupled with the support and a second end coupled with the bearing arm. The spring defines an axis which can be moved by moving the second end of the spring for exerting on the bearing arm a countermoment corresponding to a load acting on the support. A force component of the spring depends on a distance between the first and second ends of the spring. The second end of the spring can pass through a path, defined on a circle lying on a surface of a sphere, while the first end of the spring lies in a center point of the sphere. The first end of the spring lies outside a plane defined by the circle.

Abstract: A multi-dimensional acoustic, data processing and display system arranges acoustic data in a three-dimensional matrix. The three-dimensional matrix is compressed using singular value decomposition into singular vectors and singular values. A historical database is created and maintained and is also concatenated with the three-dimensional data. This database allows reverberation and noise to be diminished and other, weaker features in the data to be enhanced. Once the data is compressed, the data can be analyzed efficiently. The singular vectors are partitioned into one or more groups on the basis of their singular values or other criteria. Certain of the compressed data elements are enhanced or diminished by modifying the singular values within each of the groups of singular vectors. Selected singular vectors are processed further by other techniques for further enhancement, detection, isolation, feature extraction and classification. The compressed and enhanced data is then expanded back into three-dimensional form for display or for other processing.

Abstract: A device for selectively connecting and disconnecting plastic tubes includes a welder. A carriage (36) is located in the welder for conveying a heated wafer (16) through the welder. A pair of arms (44) is mounted in the welder with each arm having a tube holding pocket which extends across its respective arm. The arms are movably mounted to generally align the pockets with a gap therebetween. Each of the arms has a clamp (52) for selectively clamping a tube in its pocket. A wafer removal station (114) is in the welder downstream from the arms. The carriage is driven to the wafer removal station (114) so that the wafer first passes through the gap to contact the tubes (66) and then the wafer passes into the removal station so that it may be removed from the carriage and the carriage may be returned to its starting location. The welder includes a computer for controlling the operation and synchronizing the timing of the carriage and the arms to automate the welder. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to liver reserve or progenitor cells. In particular, it relates to the isolation, characterization, culturing, and uses of liver reserve cells. Liver reserve cells isolated by density gradient centrifugation can be distinguished from other liver parenchymal cells by their morphology, staining characteristics, high proliferative activity and ability to differentiate in vitro. In long-term cultures described herein, these cells expand in numbers and differentiate into morphologically mature liver parenchymal cells, capable of mediating liver-specific functions. Therefore, isolated liver reserve cells may have a wide range of applications, including, but not limited to, their uses as vehicles of exogenous genes in gene therapy, and/or to replace and reconstitute a destroyed, infected, or genetically deficient mammalian liver by transplantation.

Abstract: Paper is made by forming a thick stock cellulosic suspension, flocculating the thick stock by adding a relatively high molecular weight and relatively low cationic charge density polymer, diluting the flocculated thick stock to form a thin stock and then draining the thin stock to form a sheet. Usually coagulant is added to the thin stock before drainage and best results are achieved by adding coagulant followed by anionic colloidal material such as bentonite. The process can be operated to give good retention and good formation and, if the thick stock is dirty, to minimise pitch problems.

The invention is based on the use of that part of the kinetic energy of the launching vehicle (1) which the warhead (2) takes over from the same when it is separated in order to give the warhead (2) a looping trajectory or any other programmed flight trajectory, which carries it up to a starting height adapted to its active use, which lies considerably above the actual flight trajectory of the launching vehicle (1), and which, if so required, can carry the warhead (2) back to the geographical position where it was separated from the launching vehicle (1). The action of the warhead (2) can then follow guidelines known per se.
