Abstract: The present invention discloses
intercalates formed by contacting a layered
material, e.g., a phyllosilicate, with an
intercalant monomer surface modifier including an
alkyl radical having at least 6 carbon atoms and a
polymerizable monomer, oligomer or polymer. The
intercalant monomer surface modifier converts the
interlayer region of the layered materials from
hydrophilic to hydrophobic, therefore, polymerizable
monomers, oligomers or polymers can be easily
intercalated into the interlayer spacing. The co-presence
of the intercalant monomer surface modifier
and polymerizable monomer, oligomer or polymer
provide an environment for more polymerizable
monomers, oligomers or polymers to be intercalated
into the interlayer spacing and the intercalates are
readily exfoliated into polymer matrices to form
nanocomposites. The nanocomposites (e.g., epoxy-clay)
prepared from the intercalates demonstrated
enhanced mechanical, thermal and chemical resistance
compared with pristine polymer matrices.

Abstract: A security device for vehicle disclosed is of a type
generating a seed that is used suitably in order to generate a
key by being encoded and that is decreased in regularity. Namely,
the security device for vehicle according to the present
invention has a construction that generates from vehicle control
data the seed used for generating an authentication key on the
vehicle side and a key on the user side by being encoded. By
such construction, the seed is generated from the vehicle control
data concerning the constituent elements of the vehicle that are
kept in a state of operation. Since the vehicle control data
itself is a type that momentarily changes in correspondence with
the state of operation of the constituent elements of the vehicle,
thus generated seed exhibits substantially no regularity to
thereby become a very good kind of random number.

Abstract: An input data signal (10) is digitally sampled by a data sampling
section (1) using an N-phase clock signal (11) including N clock signals
whose frequencies are almost the same as the bit rate of the input data
signal (10) and whose phases has been successively shifted by 1/N of the
clock cycle, and thereby a parallel sample data signal (6) including N
sample data signals is obtained. An edge point detection operation
section (4) detects edge points in the N sample data signals in one cycle of
an extracted clock signal (12) and outputs an edge point operation output
signal (8). A clock signal extraction section (5) selects a clock signal from
the N-phase clock signal (11) based on the information of the edge point
operation output signal (8) and outputs the selected clock signal as the
extracted clock signal (12). A delay section (2) delays the N sample data
signals of the parallel sample data signal (6) and thereby outputs a
parallel delayed sample data signal (7) including N delayed sample data
signals. A data regeneration section (3) selects a delayed sample data
signal from the N delayed sample data signals based on the information
of the edge point operation output signal (8) and outputs the selected
delayed sample data signal as a regenerated data signal (13). Due to the
delay by the delay section (2), extraction time of the digital PLL circuit
can be decreased to 0 without enlarging the overhead in the input data
signal (10).

Abstract: Disclosed is a multiple electrode, closed-loop, responsive system for the treatment of certain neurological diseases such as epilepsy, migraine headaches and Parkinson's disease. Brain electrodes would be placed in close proximity to the brain or deep within brain tissue. When a neurological event such as the onset of an epileptic seizure occurs, EEG signals from the electrodes are processed by signal conditioning means in a control module that can be placed beneath the patient's scalp, within the patient's chest, or situated externally on the patient. Neurological event detection means in the control module will then cause a response to be generated for stopping the neurological event. The response could be an electrical signal to brain electrodes or to electrodes located remotely in the patient's body. The response could also be the release of medication or the application of a sensory input such as sound, light or mechanical vibration or electrical stimulation of the skin. The response to the neurological event can originate from devices either internal or external to the patient. The system also has the capability for multi-channel recording of EEG related signals that occur both before and after the detection of a neurological event. Programmability of many different operating parameters of the system by means of external equipment provides adaptability for treating patients who manifest different symptoms and who respond differently to the response generated by the system. <IMAGE>
