Abstract: A small amount of photoinitiator in a coating on glossy print media tends to improve
lightfastness by about 5 to 20%. The photoinitiator is included in the coating in
the range of about 0.001 to 0.01 wt%, resulting in a concentration after drying the
coating of about 0.008 to 0.08 wt%, based on a total solids content of 12 wt%. Specifically,
a print medium is provided having at least one coating thereon, including an ink-jet
receptive coating. At least the inkjet receptive coating contains the photoinitiator.
Further, a method is provided for improving lightfastness in coated print media provided
with the inkjet receptive coating. The method comprises: (a) formulating at least
one coating so as to contain the photoinitiator, wherein at least one such coating comprises
the inkjet receptive coating; and (b) coating the print media with the coating(s),
wherein the coated print medium is adapted to receive at least one inkjet ink thereon.
The magnitude of the improvement varies by formulation, but there is always some improvement

Abstract: The high pressure syngas product of a gasifier is routed first to a high pressure
absorber unit that removes most of the H 2 S and some of the CO 2  from the syngas. The
syngas is then released through an expander to reduce the pressure of the syngas and
simultaneously generate electricity. Steam is then injected into the syngas as a reactant in
the subsequent COS hydrolysis step, converting the COS to H 2 S. After hydrolysis, the
syngas is routed to a reabsorber where the remainder of the H 2 S and CO 2  are removed.
Sweet syngas can then be sent to a combustion turbine for use as a fuel source.

Abstract: In a process to remove sulfur from an automotive NOx storage trap operated in lean burn mode, a calculation model determines the sulfur removal steps. The steps are modified using information derived from a knock signal and the fuel anti-knock sensitivity, fuel consumption.   The fuel consumption is determined during a lean burn phase of motor operation. The fuel consumption is determined since the previous sulfur removal cycle. A relationship is established between the knock-sensitivity and the fuel sulfur concentration. The relationship between knock-sensitivity and sulfur concentration is held in a memory device. A correctional parameter is determined using the knock-sensitivity and fuel consumption. This parameter is incorporated in the calculation model and is determines the sulfur removal process intervals.

Abstract: A displacement of a pedestrian is determined from his or her accelerations by detecting accelerations which are substantially non vertical, determining a characteristic feature in the detected accelerations correlated with a step frequency, determining the displacement on the basis of said determined characteristic. 
     The acceleration data can be submitted to waveform analysis to determine an actualized time interval of an occurring feature, such a maximum values, from which it is determined whether the actualized time period falls within determined limit values. The currently detected characteristic feature is then determined as corresponding to a displacement step if the actualized time period falls within said determined limit value. 
     By using non-vertical acceleration measurements, the invention can make it possible to distinguish between forward, backward, left and right stepping movements and take these into account for the navigation.

This embodiment has a support for supporting the subject. A. ground-contacting module, movably attached to the support, serves to suspend the subject in the support over the surface. The orientation of the ground-contacting module defines fore-aft and lateral planes intersecting one another at a vertical. The support and the ground-contacting module are components of an assembly. A motorized drive, mounted to the assembly and coupled to the ground-contacting module, causes locomotion of the assembly and the subject therewith over the surface. Finally, the embodiment has a control loop, in which the motorized drive is included, for dynamically enhancing stability in the fore-aft plane by operation of the motorized drive in connection with the ground-contacting module. Included in the control loop is a directional control, letting the vehicle move, lean and turn in response to an indication of the subject, e.g. that of leaning the vehicle. The ground contacting module may be realized as a pair of ground-contacting members, laterally disposed with respect to one another. The ground-contacting members may be wheels, a duster of wheels, or includes rotatably mounted arcuate element pairs.
