Abstract: A method for manufacturing a kink- resistant tube having drainage holes is provided. A wire (2) is coated with plastic material (4) and wound around a mandrel (6) forming a plurality of windings. The wound coated wire is heated until the plastic coating material melts and bonds the wire windings to form a wire - reinforced sheath having wire- containing sections and non-wire containing sections. Alternatively, a coated or non- coated wire is wound around a mandrel together with separate polymer filament material and then heated. A filament having an elongated cross - section may be employed with the major axis of the elongated cross - section substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the sheath. At least one non-wire containing section is identified by passing light through at least one wall of the wire - reinforced sheath. Image capture and analysis via an optical system and microprocessor automatically identify regions to target a drill for forming holes in the non-wire containing sections.

Title: Method and device for processing water-borne sound signals
Inventor: HABERLEIN BORIS
IPC: G01S3/801
Filed: 2013-01-07
Granted: 2015-04-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing water-borne sound signals, in particular amplitude-modulated broadband noises, which are radiated or transmitted from vehicles. The broadband noises are received in a directionally selective manner as acoustic signals by means of a sonar system (2) and subjected to a spectral analysis (10), in particular a DEMON analysis (10). From the acoustic signals (8), the spectral analysis (10) then generates corresponding frequency spectra (18). At least one local maximum (36) is determined within the frequency spectrum (18), said local maxima (36) corresponding to individual frequency lines (38). On the basis of the determined frequency lines (18), a synthetic spectrum (42) is generated, which is subjected to a spectral synthesis (44), in particular a DEMON synthesis (44), which generates an associated synthetic time signal (50). From this time signal (50) and a carrier signal (56), a synthetic amplitude-modulated signal (58) corresponding to the spectral synthesis (44) is generated, said synthetic amplitude-modulated signal being output as an acoustic signal (58) to a user. The invention further relates to a device for performing the method according to the invention.

IPC: G06Q20/40

Granted: 2018-11-22
Abstract: There is disclosed a method and system for verifying an identity of a user to a computer system. The user is assigned a user access code in the form of an invariant string of integers from 0 to 9, with length no greater than ten. The user access code is stored in the computer system;the computer system generates a ten-digit random or pseudo-random non-repeating string of the integers 0 to 9, the string having 1st to 10th positions each with a unique integer and having respective positional values 1 to 10;and the computer system performs a predetermined algorithm to combine the user access code and the random or pseudo-random string, thereby to determine a one-time verification code in the form of a string of the same length as the user access code. The computer system also generates 1st to 10th cells, the cells having respective locational values 1 to 10; populates the cells with the integers of the non-repeating string such that the locational value of each cell corresponds to the integer it contains combined with the random or pseudo-random string using the same predetermined algorithm as used previously; and displays the cells on a display. A user uses an input device of the computer system to select, in order, the cells on the display that contain the integers constituting the user access code. Each act of selection returns the locational value of the selected cell, thereby to generate a one-time transaction code comprising a string of integers from 0 to 9 having the same length as the user access code. The computer system then compares the verification code with the one-time transaction code and makes a successful identity verification if the verification code matches the one-time transaction code.
