Abstract: A throttle valve has a housing comprising an inlet opening for fluid under an inlet pressure, a throttle so the fluid can be throttled to an outlet pressure, and an outlet opening for the fluid. Also provided is an actuation element, rotatable shaft, and a piston axially movable within the housing. Rotation of the shaft can be induced by the actuation element, axial movement of the piston can be induced by the rotation of the shaft, and, by the axial movement of the piston, throttle cross section can be adjusted.  Primary magnets are mounted to the actuation element, secondary magnets are mounted to the shaft, and a roller body screw drive is mounted to the shaft. Rotation of the actuation element is transferred to the shaft by magnetic coupling of the primary magnets with the secondary magnets, and converted into the axial movement of the piston by the screw drive.

Abstract: A node identification system is described for use in a computer system in which the various components of the system are interconnected via nodes on a communications bus. Once the topology of the nodes has been resolved into an acyclic directed graph, each node may be assigned a non-predetermined unique address. Each node having a plurality of ports has an a priori assigned priority for port selection. Each child node connected to a parent is allowed to respond in the predetermined sequence depending upon the port through which it is connected to its parent. Each node in the graph will announce its presence according to its location in the graph. Each receives an address incremented from the previous addresses assigned, thereby insuring uniqueness. The same mechanism may be implemented to allow each node in turn to broadcast information on the bus concerning the parameters of its local host. Likewise, additional information may be conveyed from each node concerning connections to other nodes thereby allowing a host system to generate a map of the resolved topology including any information about disabled links which may be used for redundancy purposes.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present disclosure may allow WiMAX signaling overhead to be reduced by sending burst allocation information to MSs using messages that may be transmitted using more efficient modulation coding schemes (MCSs) than that allowed for DL-MAP and UL-MAP messages. For example, burst allocation information may be sent in SUB-DL-UL-MAP or HARQ-MAP messages that may be encoded with selectable MCSs that result in higher data rate than an MCS used for conventional DL-MAP and UL-MAP messages. For certain embodiments, MSs may be partitioned into groups based on CINR and the burst allocation information for each group may be transmitted using an MCS that is appropriate for that group based on the CINR for MSs in that group.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a supervision system which allows significant aid to be afforded to the operators of large road networks. Image sensors, autonomous from the electrical standpoint and comprising software for automatically detecting incidents, transmit alarms to a network management center by way of a wireless communication network. Swivelable cameras may be pointed at the alarm zones so as to perform zooms displayed on the screens of the operators of the center. The alarms are ranked by order of technical priority and then as a function of service quality criteria defined by the operator. They may be distributed into alarms requiring immediate action and other alarms. They can also be distributed into alarms for which an automatic action may be triggered and may suffice for the resolution of the incident and alarms requiring an operator action.

Abstract: A method for indicating a relative altitude of a vehicle includes obtaining, from at least one navigation instrument, a current geographic position and a current altitude of the vehicle. One or more geographic areas substantially surrounding the current geographic position is defined. A minimum safe altitude (MSA) is determined for each geographic area based at least in part on a minimum clearance height and a maximum terrain elevation or a maximum obstruction elevation within the geographic area. A relative altitude representing the current altitude of the vehicle relative to the MSA for each geographic area is determined. A relative altitude indicator is displayed via a presentation device for each geographic area based at least in part on the corresponding relative altitude. A relative altitude indicator corresponding to an MSA below the current altitude is graphically distinguished from a relative altitude indicator corresponding to an MSA above the current altitude.

Abstract: An x-ray tube is described that includes components for increasing x-ray image clarity in the presence of a moving x-ray source by modifying focal spot characteristics, including focal spot size and focal spot position, tn a first arrangement a static focal spot is moved in a direction contrary to the movement of the x-ray source so that an effective focal spot position is essentially fixed in space relative to one of the imaged object and/or detector during a tomosynthesis exposure. In a second arrangement, the size of the static focal spot is increased, and the resulting increase in tube current reduces the exposure time and concomitant blur effect. The methods may be used alone or in combination; for example an x-ray tube with a larger, moveable static focal spot will result in a system that fully utilizes the x-ray tube generator, provides a high quality image with reduced blur and, due to the decrease in exposure time, may scan the patient more quickly.

Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery that interleukin- 1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) is expressed on the proinflammatory CD 14+CD 16+ monocyte subset. Importantly, since IL-1 alpha appears to be almost exclusively expressed on this monocyte subset and not other leukocytes, it represents an ideal marker for targeting the CD 14+CD 16+ monocyte subset. The effectiveness of an agent that depletes such pathogenic cells or modulates IL-1 alpha function on such cells type can be monitored by assessing CD 14+CD 16+ monocyte levels or functionality.
