Abstract: A method and system for selecting dental constructions using translucent materials that match an individual's preexisting tooth appearance uses a set of reference templates. The reference templates are constructed from layers of various translucent dental materials positioned on bases constructed from actual or simulated tooth structures. The layers of translucent materials have a thickness that varies in increments that correspond to the likely thicknesses of the materials when used in dental constructions. A reference table is created based upon color measurements of each of the reference templates. A color measurement of the individual's preexisting teeth is then compared to the reference table to determine which particular dental construction will most closely match the individuals preexisting teeth.

Abstract: To provide a transmission control device of a motorcycle which can detect a predetermined traveling state based on the difference in rotational speed between a front wheel and a rear wheel, and can execute a shift-change control suitable for the traveling state. A transmission control device of a motorcycle includes a shift-change control instruction part for performing an automatic shift change of an AMT (automatic manual transmission) in response to at least vehicle-speed information, a first sensor for detecting a rotational speed of a front wheel WF which constitutes a driven wheel, a second sensor for detecting a rotational speed of a rear wheel WR which constitutes a drive wheel, and a rotational-speed-difference detection means for detecting the difference in rotational speed between the front wheel and the rear wheel. The control part inhibits the automatic shift change when the rotational speed of the rear wheel WR becomes larger than the rotational speed of the front wheel WF by a predetermined value or more. The transmission control device is configured to interrupt the transmission of a driving force to the rear wheel WR by disconnecting a clutch by driving a valve 4 when a separation quantity between the front wheel WF and a road surface becomes a predetermined value or more during the inhibition of the automatic shift change. The separation quantity between the front wheel WF and the road surface is obtained by measuring a distance between the front wheel WF and the road surface using a photo sensor.

Abstract: A method of controlling soot blowers near a heat exchange section includes generating models of both the ideal clean operating condition of the section and the dirty operating condition. The current operating condition of the section is used to calculate a reliability parameter that provides an indication of the reliability of the ideal and dirty models. If the reliability parameter indicates that the models are reliable, the models are used to help evaluate the cleanliness status of a particular heat exchange section and assist in making decisions on whether to blow the section or not, and whether to make any necessary adjustments to the operating sequence of the soot blowers. If the reliability parameter indicates that the models are unreliable, the models are regenerated using additional process data.

Abstract: The present invention provides a mechanical pipe-end expander comprising a cone and a die having tapered wedge bodies whose outer radius is larger in a direction to a pipe-recess end from a pipe-mouth end, wherein a pipe-end zone is expanded by a wedge effect of the die, which results from a procedure that the cone and the die are inserted together into the pipe-end zone to be expanded, and that then only the cone is axially drawn outwards leaving the die within the pipe-end zone. A seamless steel pipe with an expanded pipe-end zone is manufactured by applying a mechanical pipe-end expander comprising a die having tapered wedge bodies whose outer radius is larger in a direction to a pipe-recess end from a pipe-mouth end. The resulting seamless steel pipe has satisfactory pipe-end dimensional accuracy, and exhibits characteristics with excellent field welding workability.

The entry and exit points define respectively an entry transversal cross-sectional configuration and an exit transversal cross- sectional configuration. The entry and exit transversal cross-sectional configurations differ from each other. The gap has a transversal cross-sectional configuration that longitudinally transitions substantially smoothly between the entry and exit transversal cross-sectional configurations.
