Abstract: A gas sensor (10A) includes a first space (20) for a
measurement gas from a gas-introducing hole (28) via a first
diffusion rate-determining section (30), a main pumping
means (44) for controlling a partial pressure of oxygen in
the measurement gas introduced into the first space (20) to
have a predetermined value, a second space (22) for the
measurement gas from the first space (20) via a second
diffusion rate-determining section (32), and a measuring
pumping means (74) for reducing or decomposing a NOx
component in the measurement gas introduced from the second
space (22) via a third diffusion rate-determining section
(72) so that oxygen produced thereby is pumped out to detect
a current generated by pumping out the oxygen. A ratio
(Wc/We) between a width (We) of an end of a sensor element
(12) and a width (Wc) of the gas-introducing hole (28) is
not less than 30% and less than 70%.

Abstract: A compressor (40) for a gas turbine engine includes a rotor assembly (42)
comprising a plurality of circumferentially-spaced apart rotor blades (50).
Each of the blades extends radially outwardly from a radially inner rim (58) to
a tip (60). Each rim defines a portion of a radially inner flowpath surface
through the compressor. A casing (80) extends circumferentially around the
rotor assembly. The casing includes at least a first ring (41) and a second ring
(82). The first ring includes a radially inner surface defining a portion of a
radially outer flowpath surface through the compressor. The first ring inner
surface is spaced radially outwardly from the plurality of rotor blade tips. The
said second ring is coupled to the first ring by a fastener assembly (86). The
first ring radially inner surface facilitates substantially insulating the fastener
assembly from the compressor flowpath.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to improved binary half tone ('BHT') photomasks and microscopic three-dimensional structures (e.g., MEMS, micro-optics, photonics, micro-structures and other three-dimensional, microscopic devices) made from such BHT photomasks (See Fig. 13). More particularly, the present invention provides a method for designing a BHT photomask layout, transferring the layout to a BHT photomask and fabricating three-dimensional microscopic structures using the BHT photomask designed by the method of the present invention. In this regard, the method of designing a BHT photomask layout comprises the steps of generating at least two pixels, dividing each of the pixels into sub-pixels having a variable length in a first axis and fixed length in a second axis, and arraying the pixels to form a pattern for transmitting light through the pixels so as to form a continuous tone, aerial light image. The sub-pixels' area should be smaller than the minimum resolution of an optical system of an exposure tool with which the binary half tone photomask is intended to be used. By using this method, it is possible to design a BHT photomask to have continuous gray levels such that the change in light intensity between each gray level is both finite and linear. As a result, when this BHT photomask is used to make a three-dimensional microscopic structure, it is possible to produce a smoother and more linear profile on the object being made.

Abstract: The system has a central dash board and two lateral dashboards located on either side of the central dashboard and moving with respect to central dash board. A motion rod displaces the lateral dash board with respect to the central dash board. A stopper integrated to the central board controls the deployment of the lateral dashboards with respect to the central board when a retractable roof is in arranged position. The central dashboard is pivoted around a transversal axis with respect to a longitudinal axis between a regular position and retracted position, in which the central dashboard is retracted towards front within a storage space. The retracted position of the central board allows the arrangement of the retractable roof in the storage space or exit of the roof from regular position to a closed position above a passenger compartment. An independent claim is also included for an open vehicle with rigid retractable roof.

Abstract: A 2D transform and its inverse have an implementation as a sequence of lifting steps arranged for reduced computational complexity (i.e., reducing a number of non-trivial operations). This transform pair has energy compaction properties similar to the discrete cosine transform (DCT), and is also lossless and scale-free. As compared to a separable DCT transform implemented as 1D DCT transforms applied separably to rows and columns of a 2D data block, the transforms operations are re-arranged into a cascade of elementary transforms, including the 2x2 Hadamard transform, and 2x2 transforms incorporating lifting rotations. These elementary transforms have implementations as a sequence of lifting operations.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and image capture device for limiting motion blur during capture of an image predetermines a relationship between movement of the image capture device, time and blur extent. A rate of movement of the image capture device is obtained and used in conjunction with the determined relationship and a blur extent limit as a basis for obtaining a maximum exposure time for the image capture device in order to limit blur extent. On the basis of the maximum exposure time obtained and a required image brightness, the image capture device is configured, and then an image is captured by the image capture device. Once the image has been captured, due to the possibility of under-exposure from having limited the exposure time, the image is processed as required to increase its intensity.
