Abstract: A system which classifies patients according to their level of awareness or consciousness using measures derived solely from electroencephalograph (EEG) signals. The system comprises multiple observers (3) of characteristics of signals, including artificial detectors, especially magnitude artifact detectors (103), eye blink detectors (104,105), stationary/RMS detectors (107), slew rate detectors (108), and burst suppression detectors (109), and determination of power in certain frequency bands. The system produces a signal derived probabilistic measure of conscious awareness called the patient state index (PSI) and displays values of trends in that index and values of an artifact index, and EMG index, and a suppression ratio in order to give the operator current information on the quality of the signal input. The PSI is derived from a statistical analysis using empirically derived population norms and other parameters. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and an apparatus for forming molten drops of precursors of thermoplastic polyesters or copolyesters as molten monomer, oligomer, monomer/glycol mixture or after partial polycondensator [sic] and melting to give a molten precursor, in which the precursor formed into drops is introduced into a gaseous medium, and the gaseous medium, after entry of the precursor formed into drops into the gaseous medium, accelerates the crystallization process by holding the drop-form precursor at a temperature above 100° C. and below its melting point for a limited time until crystallization of the drop at the surface of the precursor is complete. To this end, the apparatus has a fall tower, through which the gaseous medium flows in countercurrent from bottom to top, while the drops fall in the vertical direction from top to bottom into a collecting funnel with a precrystallized surface.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for carrying out compaction operations on molded bodies that consist of granular materials and are placed on pallets, the compaction being achieved by impact of a vibrating table on the underside of the pallet. The vibrating table, together with a spring system forms a mass-spring system, which acts as a vibrator capable of oscillation that is excited by an excitation device to produce forced vibrations. The spring system, together with the system mass, is designed to develop at least one individual frequency within the range of the compaction frequency, whereby it is also possible to adjust the individual frequency gradually or continuously. This, together with the fact that the excitation frequency can be adjusted, allows the vibrator to be operated partially or completely in resonance mode over the whole frequency range of the compaction.
