Abstract: What is described is a locally yielding structure (1) with high energy absorption for aeronautical applications, the said structure being substantially closed and substantially rigid, characterized in that at least one wall (3) of the said substantially closed structure comprises at least one vent valve (8) which can be opened when a pressure exceeding a predetermined value is present within the substantially closed structure (1). In a particularly advantageous application, the invention is used in connection with a helicopter tank and enables the subfloor to be used to absorb energy by being deformed during any impact on the ground. The present invention is also advantageous for limiting the damage caused by explosions in an aircraft fuselage.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for implementing a sleep proxy. The system starts by receiving a request at the sleep proxy for information pertaining to a service provided by a device. In response to this request, the system determines if the device is a member of a list of devices for which the sleep proxy takes action. If so, the system determines if the sleep proxy can answer the request. If so, the sleep proxy sends a response to the request on behalf of the device. In a variation on this embodiment, if the system cannot answer the request on behalf of the device, the system sends a wakeup packet to the device, wherein the wakeup packet causes the device to exit a power-saving mode so that the device can respond to the request directly.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for analyzing the hydrogen isotopes, in particular, a method for confirming hydrogen/deuterium exchange in the structure of a biological sample and determining the percent content of deuterium in a biological sample. The method comprises the following steps: selecting a matrix, mixing homogeneously the prepared biological sample with a suitable amount of matrix followed by lyophilization, sufficiently oxidizing the lyophilized mixed sample with oxidants through burning in order to oxidize the hydrogen in the mixed sample to water, reacting the resulting water after separation with zinc to generate hydrogen gas, determining the  2 H/ 1 H ratio of the hydrogen gas with a gas isotope mass spectrometer, and then calculating the percent content of deuterium in the biological sample through a formula. When the percent content of deuterium in a biological sample increases, its biological characters are markedly changed, and mainly, the heat resistance is markedly changed. The percent content of deuterium in a biological sample having optimal heat stability and the optimal deuteration conditions of a biological sample are ascertained, and the stability of biological sample such as polypeptide is improved. This method has a good repeatability of determination, is simple and easy to manipulate, requires a small amount of sample used, and has low cost.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'enregistrement sur un support d'enregistrement optique, un support d'enregistrement optique (11) et un appareil pour écrire des informations sur un support d'enregistrement optique (11). Ce procédé consiste à former des creux et des plats en agissant sur une source de rayonnement en vue de diriger un faisceau de rayonnement sur une surface d'enregistrement d'un support d'enregistrement optique (11). Ledit procédé comprend les étapes consistant à: lire une stratégie d'écriture contenue sur le support d'enregistrement optique (11) qui comporte au moins deux stratégies d'écriture, former les creux et les plats en agissant sur la source de rayonnement avec la stratégie d'écriture lue, et également déterminer laquelle des au moins deux stratégies d'écriture est optimale en lisant une indication figurant sur le support d'enregistrement optique (11), ce procédé mettant en oeuvre la stratégie d'écriture optimale pour former les creux et les plats. Si un appareil pour écrire des informations sur un support d'enregistrement optique (11) est apte à appliquer au moins deux stratégies d'écriture stockées sur le support d'enregistrement optique, il lit alors l'indication et applique la stratégie d'écriture optimale.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for adjusting imaging parameters of an X-ray apparatus (1), whereby a user pre-defines on a preliminary image an image region of interest (ROI) and a value of the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNRref) desired for this image region. Based on the current contrast-to-noise ratio (CNRm), new imaging parameters (I, V, L, f, Q0) are then calculated for a generator-control module (7) to control the X-ray apparatus (1) during an image. By means of the method, the X-ray dose may be reduced to a minimum, while at the same time the desired visibility of a region of interest is ensured.

Abstract: Using the attribute “priority” to achieve a stronger Forward Error Correction (FEC) for Radio Link Control (RLC) Control Protocol Data Units (PDUs) transmitted via the High Speed Downlinik Shared Channel (HS-DSCH) also entails prioritized handling so that an RLC Control PDU is likely to overhaul an RLC Data PDU. As a consequence the RLC protocol operation can severely be disturbed, since it relies on in-sequence delivery of control and data PDUs. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, two types of containers are provided in which data packets may be transmitted, wherein the first type of container is provided with a stronger error coding than the second type of container and wherein data packets which comprise control instructions are only transmitted in the first container type with the stronger error correction. Due to this, an improved forward error correction for control PDUs of the AM RLC protocol of Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) may be provided.
