Abstract: An automotive vehicle sway bar assembly (18) includes
two opposed sway bar members (24,28) interconnected by a
hydraulically actuated latch (36) operable to effectively
decouple the sway bar members (24,28). Alternatively, the
sway bar assembly (18) may include an integral center
section interconnecting the opposed sway bar members (24,28)
and the latch (36) is operable to modify the effective
stiffness of the assembly (18). The latch (36) includes a
housing (38) with two opposed latch members (58,80) axially
moveable relative to each other between fully engaged
positions for transmitting torque from one sway bar
member to the other or partially disengaged to
effectively decouple the sway bar members (24,28) from each
other. An anti-backlash lock member (92,94) is engageable
with one sway bar latch member to reduce backlash
created by a splined connection when the latch
members are fully engaged with each other.

Abstract: A method and system for running, on different computers at the same time, multiple operating systems from the same shared system resource is provided. This is accomplished, for example, by using persistent elemental disk reservations. Each machine reads the master boot record without reservation to determine the partition of the operating system to be booted. Each machine then makes an elemental exclusive write persistent reservation for accessing the operating system boot partition. This is followed by each machine making another elemental exclusive write persistent reservation for accessing the operating system partition itself. Each machine is assigned a different operating system partition even if they are running the same operating system. The unique reservation key for these reservations is created from at least on of a Processor ID, a Cluster ID, a Multiple Processor partition ID, a Non-Uniform Memory Access complex ID, and/or a Non-Uniform Memory Access node ID.

Abstract: A tuning rib (18) is added preferably in the aft cavity (16) of a cored turbine
bucket (10) to alter the bucket's natural frequencies. The tuning rib may be a
solid rib (18) or a segmented rib and is particularly suited for altering high
order frequency modes such as 2T, 4F and 1-3S. As such, detrimental
crossings of natural bucket frequencies and gas turbine stimuli can be
avoided to thereby improve the reliability of a gas turbine without impacting
other features of the bucket that are important to the performance of the gas
turbine.

Patent EP-1150236-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FLOCKHART ANDREW D
IPC: H04M3/428
Filed: 2001-04-24
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to techniques for estimating
customer wait times in customer contact systems and specifically to
techniques for estimating wait times for non-real-time customer
contacts. 
     Non-real-time contacts refer to contacts in which the contacting
entity or customer is unable to abandon or disconnect the contact.
Common examples include e-mail, fax, electronic or paper documents,
webform submissions, voice messages, and the like. For example,
non-real-time contacts may stay in queue overnight or over a weekend or
holiday when the contact center is unstaffed. When the contact is
serviced, the time to advance one position in the queue for the contact
may be exceptionally large. The above-predictive techniques may be
skewed by such excessive advance times and cause work distribution to be
handled inefficiently and/or ineffectively. 
     Although some architectures have features to consider for certain
types of events that can skew the wait-time prediction, the
funtionalities are inapplicable or undesirable for non-real-time
contacts. For example, one architecture marks or flags all calls in a
queue when a clock adjustment occurs. The wait or advance times for all
of the marked or flagged items are discarded in determining the
predicted wait time. This approach discards unnecessarily wait-time
information that should be considered in determining the predicted wait
time for non-real-time contacts. 
     These and other problems are addressed by the present invention. The
present invention is directed generally to an architecture for
predicting queue wait times that removes undesirable deviations in wait
time predictions caused by predetermined events and/or to an
architecture for predicting queue wait times
for non-real-time contacts or calls in a different manner from
real-time contacts or calls serviced by the same or a different system.

Lokaloszillatorfrequenz zur Bildung von Differenzfrequenzsignalen
demoduliert. Von den Empfängern werden zusätzlich zu
den demodulierten Echosignalen auch die Differenzfrequenzsignale
zur Auswertestation übertragen, die gegenseitig demoduliert
