Abstract: The invention relates to a method for depositing a coating onto an implant for
implantation in bone. In this method a coating is deposited by the ESD technique which
can be described as forcing a precursor solution through a capillary which is subjected
to an electrical field. Of particular relevance for bone implants are coatings which
comprise calcium and phosphate. The invention also relates to implants having a
coating which is deposited by this method. A particular example of such an implant is a
dental implant for the fixation of a dental prosthesis.

decoding to lower a decoding error rate. A magnetic recording and/or reproducing
apparatus (50) includes a modulation SISO decoder (63) for modulation decoding data
modulation-encoded in a predetermined fashion by a modulation coder (52). In the

Title: Anémometre pour hélicoptère
Inventor: GOUDON JEAN-CLAUDE
IPC: G01P5/14
Filed: 2001-12-11
Abstract: L'invention concerne la mesure de vitesse par rapport à l'air (Vair) d'un hélicoptère. On utilise une sonde de pression portée par une pale du rotor. La sonde fournit des signaux de pression variant périodiquement avec une allure de sinusoïde déformée dont la phase représente la direction d'avancement de l'hélicoptère et dont l'amplitude crête à crête représente deux fois la vitesse d'avancement. Pour déterminer la phase, on corrèle les mesures de pression provenant de la sonde avec deux signaux carrés (F1, F2) en quadrature de phase, synchronisés avec le rotor et de même fréquence que le rotor. On produit deux sommes S1 et S2 d'échantillons de pression comptés en positif ou en négatif selon l'état du signal carré correspondant. La phase φ de la sinusoïde déformée est donnée par la formule arctg(S2/S1). A partir de cette phase, on peut, si on a préalablement stocké les échantillons de mesure de pression, retrouver les pressions maximales et minimales (Pmax, Pmin) au cours d'un tour, les convertir en vitesse (Vmax, Vmin) par les formules anémobarométriques classiques, et en déduire la vitesse de l'hélicoptère Vair = (Vmax-Vmin)/2. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An innovative bone anchor and methods for securing connective tissue, such as tendons, to bone, which permit a suture attachment that lies entirely beneath the cortical bone surface. Advantageously, the suturing material between the connective tissue and the bone anchor is secured without the need for tying a knot. The suture attachment to the bone anchor involves the looping of a length of suturing material around a self-locking wedge block in the anchor, thereby avoiding an eyelet connection which requires a kot and which concentrates stress on a very small portion of the suturing material. Thus, failure rates are greatly decreased over conventional techniques, and the innovative procedures are significantly easier to perform than conventional techniques.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé, une sonde (14) et un système permettant de détecter la présence d'une cavitation dans un liquide et de mesurer la densité et l'intensité de la cavitation d'un paramètre spécifique dans le fluide. Un premier vide de cavitation (11-1 ) et une perturbation d'énergie associée, produits dans un premier liquide (L1), se déplacent dans le premier liquide (L1) et sont reçus sur une plaque très fine (13), qui sépare le premier liquide (L1) d'un second liquide (L2) et qui fait partie d'une chambre étanche à la lumière (15) contenant le second liquide (L2). Une perturbation d'énergie produite dans le premier liquide (L1) et reçue sur la plaque très fine (13) produit au moins un vide de cavitation ou une perturbation d'énergie associée (11-1 ) dans le second liquide (L2); et la perturbation d'énergie dans le second liquide (L2) est finalement convertie en un signal électromagnétique. Ce signal est reçu par un photomultiplicateur (19) et converti en un signal électronique indiquant la présence d'une cavitation. Ce système peut faire la distinction entre deux vides de cavitation produits en un emplacement et/ou un intervalle de temps et des vides produits en un autre emplacement et/ou un autre intervalle de temps.
