Patent EP-1343061-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HILLERMEIER CLAUS
IPC: G05B17/02
Filed: 2002-03-08
Abstract: A method for simulating a technical system in which a number of simulation steps are implemented. To solve a state description of the technical system, the Jacob matrix is solved in a single pass, without having to take into account the formation of differential quotients. Accordingly the signal inputs and outputs of a dynamic diagram representing the state description of a technical system are expanded so that the differential information for each signal can be determined from the individual state variables.  The invention also relates to a corresponding simulator.

Abstract: An exhaust gas purifying apparatus includes a charger, a
trapper and a discharger. The charger charges particulate
materials contained in exhaust gases emitted from internal
combustion engines. The trapper traps the charged particulate
materials by an electrostatic force, and includes a catalyst having
an oxidative activity at least. The discharger oxidizes the
particulate materials trapped onto the trapper by an electric
discharge. When the temperature of the exhaust gases falls in a
low temperature region, it is possible to burn and remove the
particulate materials by the electric discharge of the discharger.
When the temperature of the exhaust gas falls in a high temperature
region, it is possible to oxidize and remove the particulate
materials by the activated catalyst. Therefore, the exhaust gas
purifying apparatus can efficiently purify the particulate
materials from a low temperature region to a high temperature region.

Abstract: A transmitter (90) is capable of transmitting protocol data units,
PDUs. Each PDU has an n-bit sequence number. A polling determination
method is provided that determines if polling should be performed
according to a parameter S (98s) that is an n-bit sequence number.
Polling is then triggered if a PDU (98p) that is next to be transmitted
is not a PDU to be re-transmitted and the polling determination method
indicates that polling is to be triggered according to the sequence
number (98s) of the PDU. The polling determination method uses the
equation: 
t = ((2 n  + 1 + S - VT(A)) mod2 n )/VT(WS) 
to determine if polling should be triggered, where S (98s) is the sequence
number of the next outgoing PDU (98p).

Abstract: The invention relates to functional food to be eaten without heating, which is a powdery mixture containing substances of plant origin, and which has components containing different phytoestrogens. Further, the invention relates to the method of preparing the food. According to the invention, the food contains especially isoflavone-containing precooked soybean flour and lignane-containing germinated rye. Flavour-imparting components, such as dried lingonberry, dried rose hip and/or sweeteners, such as raw cane sugar, may also be included. The germination of rye grains can be carried out by soaking them in water, by letting them germ in room temperature, by drying the germinated grains by air blowing, and by finally milling the grains. The resulting powder is combined with the soybean flour and possible other components of the product by mechanical mixing. The powder may be eaten without cooking, mixed with a liquid, either as a drink or as a more solid mixture.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil destinés à générer des nombres aléatoires à l'aide du comportement métastable de bascules. Une bascule est synchronisée avec une entrée qui viole délibérément le temps de réglage ou le temps de prise (ou les deux) de la bascule pour assurer un comportement métastable. Lorsqu'on détecte un événement métastable, on produit un bit de sortie comme bit aléatoire. Une distribution égale de nombres aléatoires est obtenue par 'marquage' de la moitié des zéros entrés dans la bascule comme des 'uns' et l'autre moitié comme des 'zéros'. En outre, la moitié des uns sont marqués comme des 'uns' et l'autre moitié comme des 'zéro'. Le signal de marquage n'est corrélé à aucun bruit à une probabilité élevée au moyen d'un registre à décalage à rebouclage linéaire.
