Patent AU-3208900-A (AU)
Title: Antitachycardial pacing
Inventor: MOWER M D MORTON M
IPC: A61N1/36
Filed: 2000-01-14
Abstract: Protocols for antitachycardial pacing including biphasic stimulation administered at, or just above, the diastolic depolarization threshold potential; biphasic or conventional stimulation initiated at, or just above, the diastolic depolarization threshold potential, reduced, upon capture, to below threshold; and biphasic or conventional stimulation administered at a level set just below the diastolic depolarization threshold potential. These protocols result in reliable cardiac capture with a lower stimulation level, thereby causing less damage to the heart, extending battery life, causing less pain to the patient and having greater therapeutic effectiveness. In those protocols using biphasic cardiac pacing, a first and second stimulation phase is administered. The first stimulation phase has a predefined polarity, amplitude and duration. The second stimulation phase also has a predefined polarity, amplitude and duration. The two phases are applied sequentially. Contrary to current thought, anodal stimulation is first applied and followed by cathodal stimulation. In this fashion, pulse conduction through the cardiac muscle is improved together with the increase in contractility.

Title: Reagent and method
Inventor: SOUTHERN EDWIN MELLOR
IPC: C12Q1/6872
Filed: 1999-05-17
Abstract: A method of making a set of labelled compounds by the use of a preferably particulate support, comprises dividing the support into lots, performing a different chemical reaction on each lot of the support, e.g. to couple a chemical moiety to that lot of the support, tagging a fraction of each lot of the support with a different label, and combining the said lots of the support.

Patent AU-4037089-A (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for encoding, decoding and transmitting data in compressed form
Inventor: CLARK ALAN DOUGLAS
IPC: H03M7/40
Filed: 1989-07-04
Abstract: Data compression and decompression utilising eg the Ziv-Lempel algorithm is simplified by utilising a tree structure for the dictionary in which alternative symbols at a given position in a symbol sequence (a,b,c) are linked by linking pointers R of a first type and successive symbols (ab,bc,ca,aba,abb,abc) are linked by linking pointers D of a second type. For example the sequence ab may continue with any one of the symbols a,b and c grouped together by R pointers in a list below the final symbol of the sequence ab. Each symbol is defined by an associated pair of D and R pointers, in conjunction with a parent pointer P which identifies its parent. Symbols having no D pointers extending therefrom are pruned from the tree and transferred to a free list as shown in Figure 8(b).
Patent AU-4087189-A (AU)
Title: Cutting brittle materials
IPC: B06B3/00
Filed: 1989-08-30
Abstract: A method of cutting a brittle workpiece comprises applying to the surface of the workpiece a pointed tool, applying high frequency vibrations in a longitudinal direction to the tool, and moving the tool along a line to be cut of the workpiece while applying substantially steady longitudinally directed pressure to the tool. Stress is thereby applied to the workpiece as a combination of short impulses and steady direct stress and the breaking stress of the material would be attained coincident with the peak oscillatory stress. Crack propagation would therefore proceed by a series of stepwise fractures induced by successive cyclic stress peaks, resulting ultimately in the separation of the workpiece into two pieces. An apparatus for carrying out the method comprises a piezoceramic transducer (5) to generate ultrasonic vibrations, a tip (1) to be applied to the workpiece and having a hardness greater than that of the workpiece, and means to convey the ultrasonic vibrational energy to the tip.

Title: A direct smelting process and apparatus
Inventor: DRY RODNEY JAMES
IPC: C21B13/00
Filed: 2001-04-11
Abstract: A molten-bath based direct smelting process and apparatus for producing metals from a ferrous material is disclosed. The process includes injecting feed materials being solid material and carrier gas into a molten bath at a velocity of at least 40 m/s through at least one downwardly extending solids injection lance having a delivery tube of internal diameter of 40-200 mm that is located so that a central axis of an outlet end of the lance is at an angle of 20 to 90 degrees to a horizontal axis. The feed materials injection generates a superficial gas flow of at least 0.04 Nm<SUP>3</SUP>/s/m<SUP>2 </SUP>within the molten bath at least in part by reactions of injected material in the bath. The gas now causes molten material to be projected upwardly as splashes, droplets and streams and form an expanded molten bath zone, with the gas flow and the upwardly projected molten material causing substantial movement of material within the molten bath and strong mixing of the molten bath. The feed materials are selected so that, in an overall sense, the reactions of the feed materials in the molten bath are endothermic. The process also includes injecting an oxygen-containing gas into an upper region of the vessel via at least one oxygen gas injection lance and post-combusting combustible gases released from the molten bath.
