Abstract: A lens (300, 500) is disclosed for steering the exit direction (Ω) of an incident electromagnetic wave. The lens comprises a main body (210, 510) of a ferroelectric material with a first main surface (207, 507) and a first transformer (220, 222). The electromagnetic wave enters and exits the lens through the transformer, and the lens comprises means (370, 380) for creating a DC-field in a first direction in the main body. The main body (210, 510) of ferroelectric material comprises a plurality (21011-210NN, 51011-510NN) of slabs of the ferroelectric material, each slab also comprising a first (403, 603) and a second electrode of a conducting material. The means for creating a DC-field can create a gradient DC-field in the first direction using the first and second electrodes, so that the dielectric constant in the main body will also be a gradient in the first direction, thus enabling steering of the existing electromagnetic wave.

Abstract: A package for dispensing a granular product has a first hollow body member, a second hollow body member, and a pouring spout. The first hollow body member has a first exterior surface and opposite therefrom a first interior surface which defines a first internal volume. The second hollow body member has a second exterior surface, a second interior surface, a flow-regulating passage, and a dispensing passage separate from the flow-regulating passage. The second exterior surface defines a second external volume smaller than the first internal volume. Opposite the second exterior surface, the second hollow interior surface defines a second internal volume. The pouring spout is operatively connected to the dispensing passage. When the first internal volume is at least about 50% full of a granular product, the package may be tilted for dispensing at a dispensing angle which causes the granular product to flow from the first internal volume through the flow-regulating passage into the second internal volume and from the second internal volume through the dispensing passage out of the package. When the flow rate is measured and calculated at dispensing angles of 120°, 150° and 180°, the standard deviation is less than about 30% of the average flow rate for each dispensing angle.

Abstract: An exhaust gas control apparatus is provided for an internal combustion engine having at least two cylinders, a turbine, and an exhaust manifold collecting a flow of exhaust gases formed in each cylinder towards the turbine. The exhaust manifold has an inlet port connected to each cylinder and an output port upon which the turbine is secured. The exhaust gas control apparatus includes at least one seal positioned between two adjacent inlet ports, each seal being articulated relative to the exhaust manifold and being capable of sealing one of the two adjacent inlet ports to reduce the internal volume of the exhaust manifold available for the flow of exhaust gas. The apparatus of the invention makes it possible to reduce the internal volume of the exhaust manifold according to the engine cycle. By doing so, most of the kinetic energy of the exhaust gases is channelled towards the turbine; this is in contrast with a traditional exhaust manifold whereby a part of the kinetic and thermal energy of the exhaust gases is dissipated within the internal volume of all the inlet ports of the exhaust manifold.

Abstract: In a hybrid vehicle incorporating an internal combustion engine having an in-cylinder injector and a motor, when the temperature of the in-cylinder injector rises, if a current engine operation point (450) is inside a prescribed intermediate load range (deposit risk range) (420) where the temperature of the in-cylinder injector tends to rise, an engine load is increased or reduced while an engine speed (NE0) is maintained, to thereby change the engine operation point to an engine operation point (460) inside a low load range (410) or to an engine point (470) inside a high load range (430). A reduction ( ¢P1) or an increase ( ¢P2) in the engine output associated with the change of the engine operation point is compensated for by increasing or reducing the output of the motor.
