Abstract: A novel method for detecting and measuring elastic anisotropy in a sample of the earth's formations is provided. A dyad of time series signal representative of the sample's response to imparted shear waves is recorded. The dyad of time series signals can then be processed to detect and measure elastic anisotropy in the sample. More particularly, the dyad of time series sig­nals are collected by imparting shear waves having first and second polarizations into the samples with a shear wave transducer and recording the sample's response to each of the imparted shear waves by shear wave transducers having first and second polarizations. In one embodiment of the invention, the dyad of time series signals can be diagonalized to detect and measure elastic anisotropy in the sample. In another embodiment, the dyad of time series signals can be processed for a plurality of rota­tion angles and the resulting rotated dyad of time series signals can be displayed to detect and measure elastic anisotropy in the sample.

Abstract: A manual transmission (10) capable of producing six forward speed drive ratios including at least two different overdrive speed ratios. The transmission includes an input shaft (14) adapted to continuously drive a cluster gear assembly (26). Moreover, the input gear (22) may be selectively coupled directly to an output shaft (16) to provide for direct drive. The continuously driven cluster gear (26) may be selectively coupled to the output shaft (16) through any one of five other gear meshes (36,42,48,54,60). Two of those five other gear meshs include a pair of relatively large speed gears (58,64) arranged to freely rotate on the countershaft (28) of the cluster gear assembly (26) when the transmission is not engaged in either overspeed drive ratio. As such, these gears do not affect the rotational inertia of the cluster gear assembly (26) and reduces the rotational inertia of the input shaft (14). A reverse drive can be effected by coupling a gear (68) on the cluster gear assembly (26) through a reverse idler gear (72) to the output shaft (16).

Abstract: The gear pump has two gears (14, 15) which mesh in external engagement with each other and against the side faces of which a sealing plate (26) is pressed with the aid of two approximately concentrically extending pressure fields (A, B). The two pressure fields are not connected to each other. The pressure of one pressure field (B) can be relieved with the aid of an orifice plate (39) arranged in the delivery line, in particular in such a way that the sealing plate (16) is lifted off from the gear side faces, as a result of which a horizontal delivery rate characteristic is produced, i.e. from a certain point limiting the delivery rate no longer increases with the rotational speed. As a result, the sealing plate has the function of a flow control valve. …<IMAGE>…

Abstract: An identifier generator produces unique identifiers for objects in a distributed computer system by concatenating (i) the identifier of the node associated with the object - a unique space component; (ii) the current time read from an associated clock, adjusted such that no two identifiers created by the same generator have the same current time, regardless of the resolution of the associated clock - a unique time component; and (iii) a random name-sequence; and (iv) a (software/hardware) version number. The generator stores the time and the random name-sequence components. When the next identifier is generated, the generator compares the then current time with the stored time component. If the times are equal, the current time is adjusted and the adjusted time is used as the new identifier time component. If the current time is less than the stored time, the generator changes the stored random name-sequence component and uses it and the current time as identifier components. If the random name sequence component used in the previous identifier is lost, the generator generates a new random name sequence and uses the new sequence and the then current time as identifier components. If the time component used in the previous identifier is lost, the generator changes the random name-sequence is a predetermined manner and uses it and the then current time as identifier components.

Abstract: A method for reducing "grainyness" or color contrast in color imaging systems and simultaneously reducing or eliminating paper cockleing of media printed by ink jet printing. The method involves determining the maximum allowable ink print density necessary to reduce or eliminate paper cockleing in the printed media and then providing tight control of the selection of gray scale ink drop count and associated dye loading in relation to this maximum allowable print density. Using this method, pixels are selected and printed in such a manner as to maximize the uniformity of ink distribution on the printed media. 
     This method will work using either a variable drop size or a fixed drop size with variable dye loadings. It will also work with most error diffusion or dithering schemes presently used and available in the image processing arts.

Abstract: A method of establishing a digital time-division duplex radio communication link between one of a plurality of portable units and a base unit in a cordless telephone system. Transmissions from the base unit are allowed only on a ping-pong basis with transmission bursts from all the active transmitters in the base unit being synchronised with one another. This prevents blocking of receiver sections due to co-sited transmitters transmitting at the same time on a different channel. The difficulty of synchronising the transmission bursts of the active portable units with their respective transceivers within the base unit is overcome by allowing the portable unit to make an initial continuous call comprising multiple identical sequences of data containing units small enough to be completely received within the limited reception windows of the base unit. After the initial call has started communication, an exchange of signals takes place on a ping-pong basis to establish synchronism between the portable unit and base unit. Finally, if all is well, the system reverts to speech mode.
