Filed: 1997-05-16
Abstract: A system and method of transforming information between UCS and EBCDIC-friendly representations comprises a two-stage transformation process using a first stage which transforms a UCS string to and from an intermediate form string, referred to as an I8-string. A second stage transforms the I8-string to and from a string in an EBCDIC-friendly representation. The two stages employ transformations which result in control characters and other selected characters being represented as single octets in the I8 and EBCDIC-friendly strings and the transformations are symmetric in both stages. The second stage can produce EBCDIC-friendly strings in one or more selected EBCDIC encodings.
Patent CA-2206212-A1 (CA)
Title: Phase shifting diffraction interferometer
Inventor: SOMMARGREN GARY E
IPC: G01J9/02
Filed: 1995-11-21
Abstract: An interferometer system in which a linearly polarized beam (10) from a light source (12) passes through a density filter (14). The beam (10) then passes through a half-wave retardation plate (16) which produces two orthogonally polarized beams. The angular orientation of the half-wave retardation plate (16) is used to adjust the relative intensity between the vertical and horizontal components of polarization. The polarized beams are then split by a polarization beamsplitter (22). The transmitted beam (20) is then reflected by a fixed retroreflector (24) back through the polarization beamsplitter (22) to a turning mirror (26). The reflected beam (18) is reflected, by a retroreflector (28), mounted on a piezoelectric translator (30) back through the beamsplitter (22) to the same mirror so that it is parallel to the other beam but laterally displaced from it. It diverges and is coincident with the reference beam (48) which was diffracted by the aperture (42). The measurement beam (46) and the reference beam (48) interfere to produce a fringe pattern that represents a contour map of optical path difference between the wavefront from the optic (50) and a perfect spherical wavefront.

Patent CA-2216945-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEIBE THOMAS
IPC: F21V8/00
Filed: 1997-02-20
Abstract: The light sources provided give off light in all directions. If a light source at the edge of a planiform lamp which radiates into the lamp is attached or imbedded at the edge, it is apparent that a large portion of the light at the edge of the surface to be illuminated leaves the lamp (visible as a bright edge etc.). This effect occurs in all known arrangements because in this region the light strikes the surface with a smaller angle than the angle of total reflection, and for the most part exits. This natural characteristic considerably limits the use of radiated light for the lighting effect in the entire area of the lamp. An essential major feature of this patent application is how to compensate for this effect and thus the possibility of using the portion of light normally ignored in known applications.

Filed: 1997-03-21
Abstract: A method of assaying the compressive strength of rock comprises testing a primary plurality of rock samples of similar lithology, at least some of which have different porosities, to determine, for each sample respectively, values corresponding to compressive strength and porosity. A first series of pairs of electrical compressive strength and porosity signals, the signals of each pair corresponding, respectively, to the compressive strength and porosity values for a respective one of the samples, is generated. These signals are processed by a computer to extrapolate additional such pairs of signals and generate a second series of electrical signals corresponding to compressive strength as a function of porosity. The second series of signals may correspond to unconfined compressive strength, and may be further processed to generate a cumulative series of signals, using electrical adjustment signals corresponding to other conditions affecting the compressive strength of the rock.
