Patent CA-2808932-A1 (CA)
Title: Guidance method and apparatus
Inventor: GATE MARTIN SIMON
IPC: F41G7/00
Filed: 2011-08-23
Abstract: A method of guiding a pursuer to a target is provided, and is of particular use when the possible target location is described by non-Gaussian statistics. Importantly, the method takes into account the fact that different potential target tracks in the future have significantly different times to go. That can give rise to emergent behaviour, in which the guidance method covers several possible outcomes at the same time in an optimal way. An example embodiment of the method combines Particle Filter ideas with Swarm Optimization techniques to form a method for generating guidance commands for systems with non- Gaussian statistics. That example method is then applied to a dynamic mission planning example, to guide an airborne pursuer to a ground target travelling on a network of roads where the pursuer has no-go areas, to avoid collateral damage.

Abstract: A lighting conversion apparatus provided which converts a recessed light into a non-recessed light. A threaded electrical contact is designed to screw into the existing socket of a recessed light. The threaded electrical contact is connected to a socket extension, which is in turn connected to a socket extension base.

Patent CA-2821871-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SALMINEN REIJO K
IPC: D21C9/00
Filed: 2011-12-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for longitudinal splitting of hollow cellulosic fibers. The method comprises the steps of wetting the fibers, feeding the wet fibers to an above atmospheric gaseous flow, and conducting the gaseous flow carrying the fibers through a venturi tube. The pressure drop in the venturi tube throat brings a pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the fibers and causes the fibers to split in their longitudinal direction. Further objects of the invention are an apparatus for splitting the fibers, a method of washing fibrous pulp, methods for the bleaching of fibrous pulp, methods for the chemical treatment of fibrous pulp, a method for the deinking of recycled paper, methods for the pretreatment of fibrous pulp or recycled paper for papermaking, methods for the preparation of dried paper, and finished paper products comprising longitudinally split fibers. Splitting of the fibers provides access to the bound liquid inside the lumen of the fibers, benefiting the various fiber treatments and drying operations, and reduces the freeness of the finished paper while preserving its strength.

Abstract: Improved methods and systems for processing of solid tissue are described. The method may be performed manually or automatically. The system may have modules such as (i) a grossing module where a fresh tissue is sliced to prepare a tissue specimen, (ii) a hardening module that hardens the tissue specimen, (iii) an impregnating module that impregnates the tissue specimen that was hardened, and (iv) an embedding module that embeds a tissue specimen that was hardened and impregnated. Fresh (i.e., not fixed or frozen) tissue, which was excised to diagnose disease or to assess surgical treatment, is grossed to about 0.6 mm. Preferably, the hardening of fresh tissue is initiated, but not completed, during grossing by contact with a chemical admixture. Preferably, dry ice, a thermoelectric device, or a gas condenser cools a metal mold containing the embedded specimen. It is sectioned and then microscopically examined as an alternative to histologic examination of a frozen section to avoid the known problems of discordant and deferred diagnosis.
