Abstract: An arrangement for turning a turret on a ship comprises two slides that can glide along a flange arrangement being arranged on a rim of a turret. The slides are moveable by respective hydraulic cylinders and provide support for a rotatable pawl arrangement which can be rotated into and out of engagement with apertures in the rim. The two hydraulic cylinders are arranged as mirror images of each other in order for the cylinders to push the rim in opposite directions. When the turret is turned, one of the hydraulic cylinders, with the associated slide and pawl arrangement, is used to push the rim in the desired direction, while the other hydraulic cylinder with associated slide and pawl arrangement is utilized to hold the rim in a fixed position while the first slide is pulled back in order for the pawl arrangement to engage with a new aperture in the rim.

Abstract: A sealing arrangement (1) has two abutting construction elements made of concrete, steel, reinforced concrete, cast iron or other materials, as well as a sealing section made of an elastomer material which sealingly bridges the gap between the two construction elements. The construction elements are in particular segments (2, 2'') which are assembled into a tubular tunnel with transverse and longitudinal joints (3). Each segment is preferably provided with a continuous groove on all its abutting sides. An elongated sealing profile (5) is located in each groove, forming a sealing frame with frame corners. The sealing section has elongated open and/or closed flutes arranged on the section base side and elongated ducts arranged between the flutes and the section front side. The sealing section (5) also has at least two groups (A, B) of ducts of which the first (A) is located directly above the flutes while the other (B) is laterally offset with respect to the flutes.

Abstract: A method of generating a message having an invariable portion (U1) and a variable portion (V) is provided. Most of the invariable portion (U1) is provided in the form of recorded speech (A) whereas the variable portion (V) is provided in the form of synthesised speech (B). The synthesised speech (8) also extends by half a phoneme into the invariable portion (U1) of the message. The synthesised speech (B) and the recorded speech (A) are then concatenated, with a transition signal being formed on the basis of a boundary portion of each of the recorded (A) and synthesised signals (B) about any join (8). In forming the transition signal, a set of transition signal pitchmarks is created and an overlap-add technique is used to copy the waveform within the boundary portions of the speech signals (A, B) around the transition signal pitchmarks. The signal around the penultimate pitchmark in the leading boundary portion is copied to the trailing half of the transition signal and the signal around the second pitchmark in the trailing boundary portion is copied to the leading half of the transition signal. In this way, the characteristics of the generated message around the join (8) change gradually between the characteristics of the recorded speech (A) and the characteristics of the synthesised speech (B).

Abstract: The method involves regularly checking the light intensity in the cubicle and detecting a fault based on preset values for light or dark. Faults are indicated for service personnel or signaled to a background system. The measurement circuit is activated at a predefined time at which the lighting is known to be intact. The light intensity is measured on successive days at a predefined time when the lighting should be on, and a value for light or dark is determined and stored. The measured value is compared with the stored value and a fault detected and indicated or signaled if they disagree. An independent claim is also included for a circuit for implementing the method.

Abstract: A spiral wound membrane filtration element capable of being back-flushed has a permeate carrier sheet; a permeable membrane filter layer sheet adhesively bonded to the permeate carrier sheet, and a feed spacer sheet. The membrane filter layer sheet folds over the feed spacer so that the feed spacer sheet is sandwiched between two layers of the membrane filter layer sheet. The sandwich positions over the permeate carrier sheet such that the adhesive seal bonds the membrane filter layer sheet to the permeate carrier sheet. The permeate carrier sheet, the membrane filter layer sheet, and the feed spacer sheet are wrapped around a permeate collection tube. The filter element is cleaned by pressurizing the feed solution or by creating a vacuum in the permeate collection tube, and periodically introducing a pressurized back flush fluid into the permeate collection tube of the filtration element to back-flush the membrane, under a pressure and for a time sufficient to dislodge a substantial portion of the retained solids on the surface of the membrane. The membrane filter layer sheet is made by placing a casting solution of a cetain thickness on a passing support substrate having a Frazier air permeability between 0.1 and 10 cfm/ft<2>. The thickness of the casting solution on the support substrate is controlled through use of a mechanical device for dispensing the casting solution. The substrate with the casting solution is then immersed into a quench bath, to allow removal of casting solution, after an air quench time that allows formation of a thin membrane film on the support substrate.

Abstract: To stabilize slopes and embankments support walls are used which consist of rectangular elements comprising a base element (2), a front element (3) and a reinforcement (5) which covers the base element or is arranged behind the front element (3). The reinforcement (5) serves as soil reinforcement (6) when it rests on the base element (2) and as rear anchorage (8) above the filler soil (7). The part of the reinforcement situated behind the front element can be used to establish plant growth. So far the base and front elements have been configured as a single piece from a wire steel mesh and transported to the building site in a bent state. A disadvantage of this is that the elements are almost impossible to store and difficult and bulky to transport and that it is very difficult for labourers to position each element correctly on the building site. All of the above problems are eliminated if the two elements are made not of a single piece but of two separately produced steel wire meshes which are joined in an articulated manner by joint elements (9).
