Abstract: A sensor apparatus and electrode configuration within the sensor apparatus for measuring electrical characteristics of an aqueous fibrous composition. The electrode configuration includes an elongated ground electrode and at least one segmented electrode to form an array of measurement electrode cells. The electrode configuration further includes an array of reference electrode cells formed by a plurality of reference electrodes built into the array of measurement electrode cells.  The measurement electrode cells and reference electrode cells have a different sensitivity to water weight of the aqueous fibrous composition and the same sensitivity to conductivity of the aqueous fibrous composition. The measurement apparatus obtains simultaneous resistive measurements from both measurement and reference cells and determines the ratio of the measurements such that the affects from conductivity is canceled out of the measurement ratio. The determined measurement ratio is used to obtain a measurement of the water weight of the aqueous fibrous composition by using previously determined characterization data of the water weight vs. a range of measurement ratios.

Abstract: A power boost control system is provided for an agricultural vehicle with an engine which is normally governor controlled to run at throttle-selected constant engine speed up to a normal or rated engine speed. The power boost control system receives a road speed signal. Power boost is enabled if the sensed road speed is greater than an "on" threshold, above which is considered to be a transport speed. Power boost is disabled if sensed road speed is less than an "off" threshold, below which is considered to be less than a transport speed. When power boost is enabled, the controller will increase maximum power limits to above normal levels, so that, for example, the desired road or transport speed can be maintained as the vehicle goes up a hill.

Abstract: Herein is described a tokenless biometric method for processing electronic transmissions, using at least one user biometric sample (62), an electronic identicator (12) and an electronic rule module clearinghouse (14). The steps for processing of the electronic transmissions comprise a user registration step, wherein a user registers with an electronic identicator (12) at least one registration biometric sample taken directly from the person of the user. A formation of a rule module (50) customized to the user in a rule module clearinghouse (14), wherein at least one pattern data (54) of a user is associated with at least one execution command (52) of the user. A user identification step, wherein the electronic identicator (12) compares a bid biometric sample taken directly from the person of the user with at least one previously registered biometric sample (24) for producing either a successful or failed identification of the user. In a command execution step, upon successful identification of the user, at least one previously designated rule module (50) of the user is invoked to execute at least one electronic transmission. The above-mentioned steps are conducted in a manner wherein a biometrically authorized electronic transmission is conducted without the user presenting any personalized man-made memory tokens such as smartcards, or magnetic swipe cards.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de miroir electrochimique reversible, comprenant une première électrode (106) sensiblement transparente à surface texturée, et une seconde electrode (110) répartie dans des zones localisées. Une solution electrolytique (112) placée entre les première et seconde electrodes contient des ions (116) d'un metal pouvant être déposé pa électrolyse sur les electrodes. Un potentiel électrique négatif appliqué sur la première électrode provoque la dissolution du métal déposé sur la seconde électrode dans la solution electrolytique et un dépôt électrolytique de la solution sur la surface texturée de la première électrode, affectant ainsi la propagation du rayonnement électromagnétique à travers le dispositif. Because of the textured surface, light striking the first electrode is diffusely reflected, making the device desirable for architectural and automotive glass applications. A surface modification layer (108) applied to the first electrode ensures that the electrodeposit is substantially uniform. A positive electrical potential applied to the first electrode causes deposited metal to be dissolved from the first electrode and electrodeposited from the solution onto the second electrode, thereby decreasing the reflection of radiation by the device.

Abstract: A bell-shaped element is placed in a sealed position whereby it rests against the outer wall of the container which is full of solid commodities in order to create a partial vacuum in the inner area of said bell-shaped element and in the gaseous area of the container. A sealing armature subsequently places a sealing cap on top of the opening of the container. When the vacuum is created, a cleanliness element rests against the free edge of the opening of the container in a position which is sealed by means of a liner. The cleanliness element comprises a sieve which retains solid materials inside the container during suction. The cleanliness element subsequently retracts on a plane of its own, wiping the free end of the opening in order to remove debris and solid particles which could prevent the opening from being sealed in a desired manner.

Abstract: A method for preparing cross-linked collagen, and cross-linked collagen products. The method includes incubating collagen in a solution including water, at least one polar solvent and at least one sugar, to form cross-linked collagen. The accompanying figure shows the effect of treatment with reducing sugar (D-ribose) and alcohol on particulate collagen degradation by bacterial collagenase. The solution may include a buffer having a suitable pH and ionic strength. The method may include removing excess unreacted sugar(s) and polar solvent(s) by washing the cross-linked collagen or by other methods. The method may also include dehydrating the cross-linked collagen, and may include subjecting the cross-linked collagen to critical point drying, or subjecting the collagen to drying or freeze-drying prior to cross-linking. The collagen may be prepared from atelopeptide collagen to reduce antigenicity, but may also be prepared from other suitable collagen types. The concentration and type of the polar solvent(s), the concentration and type of the reducing sugar(s), and the incubation duration may be varied to control the degree of cross-linking. The cross-linked collagen product may be in the form of a wet or dry matrix or membrane or may be suspended in a liquid in the form of an injectable preparation. The method may be applied to collagenous proteins and collagen-like peptides.

Abstract: A method for preparing ultra-fine grain titanium or titanium-alloy articles 78 used for adjoining or assembling of detail components. Coarse- grained titanium or titanium-alloy materials 52 typically are heated and forced under constant pressure through a friction stir processing tooling device 50 containing a stirring chamber 54 and a stirring rod 58. As the material is passed through the stirring chamber 54, the stirring rod 58 solutionizes the titanium or titanium-alloy material 52 and stirs the material to obtain a homogeneous or uniform material condition. As the processed material exits the stirring chamber 54 of the friction stir process tooling device 50, it reconsolidates as an extremely homogeneous structure possessing ultra- fine grain structure. Titanium or titanium-alloy materials 52 having been processed to achieve such ultra-fine grain material structure may then be manufactured into aerospace structural articles or components such as fasteners 78 or articles that do not require a subsequent thermal or heat-treatment steps. The resulting fasteners; articles or components have improved material performance characteristics associated with this ultra-fine grain material structure.
