Abstract: L'invention concerne un haut-parleur à ondes de flexion de résonance, comprenant : un radiateur acoustique en forme de panneau se présentant sous la forme d'une poutre ; un transducteur de vibrations monté sur la poutre à un endroit lui permettant d'appliquer l'énergie d'ondes de flexion à cet endroit, afin de permettre l'excitation de modes à faible fréquence dans le radiateur dans le sens tant de sa longueur que de sa largeur ; et des moyens de montage de radiateur permettant l'excitation de modes à faible fréquence à l'intérieur, dans le sens de la longueur et de la largeur. Selon un autre aspect, l'invention a trait à un procédé de conception d'un haut-parleur à ondes de flexion de résonance du type décrit ci-dessus. Ledit procédé consiste : à déterminer un endroit où placer le transducteur de vibrations sur la poutre, en dérivant un modèle des modes de résonance présents dans la poutre à partir de paramètres physiques de la poutre ; à utiliser le modèle pour calculer la puissance d'entrée mécanique transmise par le transducteur vers la poutre en tant que fonction de fréquence ; à calculer une mesure du lissage de la puissance d'entrée mécanique ; et à sélectionner la position du transducteur de vibrations possédant une valeur souhaitée de la mesure de lissage.

Abstract: Side-flexing conveyor belt built up of a number of chain links which are joined together
in a hinge-like manner by means of transverse rods (5, 6) through openings in
the individual chain links. Use is made of chain links of at least two types, i.e. edge
chain links (1, 2) with one-sided reinforcement (18), and module chain links (3, 4)
between the edge chain links. The chain links of both types can be configured in various
module breadths, and the individual links are staggered in relation to one another.
Each link has a first row of eye parts (12) with mutual intervals between them in the
transverse direction, and with elongated holes in line with one another for the engagement
of a transverse rod, and a second row of eye parts (11) disposed midway between
the first-mentioned eye parts and with holes in line with one another for the engagement
of a second transverse rod, and the two sets of eye parts are held together by a
transversely-extending bridge part. The edge chain links' one-sided reinforcement (18)
extends over at least one eye part for each row, so that at least one eye part is replaced
by at least one traction side plate (7) in each link, in that said side plates have transverse
openings corresponding to the eye part's openings and elongated holes and are in
engagement with adjacent rods (5, 6).

Abstract: A method and system for providing non-sequential access to visual information
that is being digitally encoded in a digital data stream are provided. The digital data
stream includes a sequence of video frame data. Each video frame data in the sequence
of video frame data corresponds to a video frame of the visual information. The digital
data stream is generated with an encoder. The encoder generates tag data that indicates
locations of the video frame data within the digital data stream. The digital data stream
is stored at a location from which the digital data stream is delivered to a client. Tag
data is stored at a location from which the tag data may be used to provide the client
non-sequential access to the digital data stream. A selected set of video frames within
the digital data stream is selected based on the tag data in response to a request for non-sequential
access by the client. A second digital data stream that includes the video
frame data that corresponds to each video frame of the selected set of video frames is
constructed and transmitted to the client.

Inventor: STERNAD MIKAEL
IPC: H04R29/00
Filed: 2003-02-13
Abstract: The invention concerns digital audio precompensation, and particularly the design of
digital precompensation filters. The invention proposes an audio precompensation filter
design scheme that uses a novel class of design criteria. Briefly, filter parameters are
determined based on a weighting between, on one hand, approximating the
precompensation filter to a fixed, non-zero filter component and, on the other hand,
approximating the precompensated model response to a reference system response. For
design purposes, the precompensation filter is preferably regarded as additively
comprising a fixed, non-zero component and an adjustable compensator component. The
fixed component is normally configured by the filter designer, whereas the adjustable
compensator component is determined by optimizing a criterion function involving the
above weighting. The weighting can be made frequency- and/or channel-dependent to
provide a very powerful tool for effectively controlling the extent and amount of
compensation to be performed in different frequency regions and/or in different channels.

Abstract: To commence an adjustment process, one pressure chamber is connected to the pressurised medium pump(16) before the other chamber is connected to the reservoir(17).  The control flow passage of the connection of one pressure chamber to the reservoir during the adjustment process is constantly smaller than the opening flow passage of the connection of the other pressure chamber to the pump.  The respective control flow passages of the two connections are controlled by a common valve component in the control valve(13).

Abstract: An electrosurgical instrument for use in cutting and/or coagulating tissue includes a
dielectric material (30), the dielectric material being positioned in the current pathway
between the tissue-treatment regions of first and second electrodes (15,16).
