Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a method
of manufacturing a rolling element string wherein a
smaller rolling element string can be manufactured
easily at low cost, and a rolling element string being
superior in tensile strength and flexural strength even
after downsizing can be manufactured. The present
invention to achieve the object is a method of
manufacturing a rolling element string having a number
of rolling elements (3;30) aligned and rollably retained
at prescribed intervals, comprising a first step of
forming a flat band shaped belt member (21) with a
synthetic resin, a second step of forming retaining
holes (20;31) aligned on said belt member (21) in a row
for receiving the rolling elements (3;30) loosely, and a
third step of aligning the rolling elements (3;30)
within said retaining holes (20;31) and forming the
spacer portions (22;32) between the respective adjacent
retaining holes (20;31) by injection molding for
retaining said rolling elements (3;30) with said rolling
elements (3;30) used as cores, so that said rolling
elements (3;30) are trapped within said retaining holes
(20;31).

Abstract: A valve arrangement for a fuel injector arrangement (10; 80), in which liquid
fuel is drawn from a low pressure drain source and supplied from a pump at
high pressure through a main fuel supply passage (14) to an outlet of the
injector arrangement. The valve arrangement includes a pressure regulating
means (16, 18, 20, 22), which, during the course of an injection, regulates
the pressure of fuel being supplied to the outlet. The pressure in the main fuel
supply passage (14) is regulated to a preselected pressure, which is
intermediate drain pressure and pump supply pressure.

Abstract: An exhaust system is regarded as being equivalent
to a system for generating an output of an O 2  sensor (12)
or exhaust gas sensor from a combined air-fuel ratio
that is produced by combining outputs of air-fuel ratio
sensors (13, 14) associated with respective cylinder
groups (3, 4) according to a filtering process of the
mixed model type. With the equivalent system as an
object to be controlled, an exhaust system controller
(15) determines a target value for the combined air-fuel
ratio, and determines a target air-fuel ratio for the
cylinder groups (3, 4) from the target combined air-fuel
ratio. The outputs of the air-fuel ratio sensors
(13, 14) are converted to the target combined air-fuel
ratio under feedback control.

Abstract: A fuel pressure control apparatus and method controls a pressure of fuel
that is delivered from a fuel pump (47) to a fuel pipe (53) in an internal combustion
engine (11) of a vehicle. A controller (92) of the fuel pressure control apparatus
calculates a controlled variable based on at least an integral term that is updated in
accordance with a difference between an actual fuel pressure in the fuel pipe and a
target value thereof, and controls an amount of the fuel delivered from the fuel
pump in a feedback manner, using the controlled variable, so that the actual fuel
pressure approaches the target value. During the control of the fuel pressure, the
controller inhibits updating of the integral term to a value that results in an
increase in the amount of the fuel delivered from the fuel pump, when the amount
of the fuel delivered is approximate to or equal to a maximum value thereof.

Abstract: A type system includes a dual representation for basic data types. One representation is the basic data type representation common to such basic built-in data types, known as an unboxed value type or simply as a value type. Each of the basic data types also has a boxed representation that can be stored in the object hierarchy of the type system. This dual representation can also be extended to user-defined types, so that user-defined types may exist both as an unboxed value type and as an object within the object hierarchy of the type system. This dual representation allows the compiler and/or runtime environment to select the most effective and efficient representation for the data type depending on the particular need at the moment.

Abstract: A method of forming a multilayer silicon carbide stack is described. The multilayer
silicon carbide stack comprises a thin silicon carbide seed layer (e. g., silicon carbide seed
layer less than about 100 Å thick) having a thicker silicon carbide layer (e. g., silicon carbide
layer at least 300 Å thick) formed thereon. The multilayer silicon carbide stack is formed by
depositing the thin silicon carbide seed layer on a substrate. After the silicon carbide seed
layer is deposited on the substrate it is treated with a helium containing plasma. Thereafter,
the thicker silicon carbide layer is deposited on the plasma treated silicon carbide seed layer.
The multilayer silicon carbide stack is compatible with integrated circuit fabrication processes.
In one integrated circuit fabrication process, the multilayer silicon carbide stack is used
as a barrier layer. In another integrated circuit fabrication process, the multilayer silicon carbide
stack is used as a hardmask for fabricating an interconnect structure.

Abstract: A semiconductor laser device comprises, on top of an
active layer, an n-type cladding layer of Al x1 Ga 1-x1 As and a p-type
cladding layer of (Al x Ga 1-x ) y In 1-y P for defining a barrier
height. The p-type cladding layer for defining a barrier
height contains more component elements than the n-type
cladding layer. The potential difference between the
conduction band edges of the p-type cladding layer for
defining a barrier height and the active layer is greater
than the potential difference between the conduction band
edges of the n-type cladding layer and the active layer. The
carriers in the active layer are prevented from overflowing
into the p-type cladding layer and a material having a high
thermal conductivity is used for the n-type cladding layer to
prevent the phenomenon of thermal saturation, thereby
providing improved optical output.
