Abstract: A decoy flare for infrared (IR) seeking missiles
comprises a tubular shell (1) with a cover member (3)
hermetically sealed to an outer front edge of the tubular
shell (1) to form a container for a pyrophoric liquid
(10). The cover member (3) has a central rupturing disc
(4) that ruptures at a predetermined pressure, a nozzle
cap (5) with a nozzle opening (6) being attached to the
cover member (3) adjacent to an exterior surface of the
rupturing disc (4). Pressure applied by a mechanism to
the pyrophoric liquid (10) can rupture the rupturing disc
(4) and eject the pyrophoric liquid (10) through the
nozzle (6). A pre-heating chamber (20,30) formed by an
enclosure (22,32) surrounds the nozzle opening (6) in
order to provide for more reliable ignition of the
pyrophoric liquid (10) at high altitudes and low flow
rates, that enclosure (22,32) having an outer surface
containing a number of perforations (28,38) through which
air can enter the pre-heating chamber (20,30) and through
which pyrophoric liquid (10) can be ejected from the
chamber (20,30) into the atmosphere.

Abstract: An input ranging circuit for an electronic instrument that allows for measuring a.c.
voltage, d.c. voltage, and d.c. resistance is provided. The voltage ranging circuit has three
modes, d.c. volts, a.c. volts, and ohms, which are selected by a mode switch. A resistor
network containing an input resistor, feedback resistors, a reference resistor, and divider
resistors provides resistances that are ratiometrically scaled to maintain relatively tight
ratio tolerances. A switch array coupled to the resistor network provides for the selected
circuit configuration and divider ratio in conjunction with the mode switch. Each of the
switches in the switch array may be independently controlled via control signals. In d.c.
volts mode, the input voltage is divided down according to a desired voltage divider ratio.
In a.c. volts mode, the voltage divider is supplemented with an a.c. amplifier configured
to extend the useful bandwidth of the input ranging circuit. In ohms mode, a
programmable current scaled according to the ratio of resistances in the resistor network
is induced through an unknown resistance and the voltage drop is provided at an ohms
sense output.

Abstract: A processing unit cuts out, from a selected mask pattern (22), a rectangular area
pattern (S k ×S k ) having the size equal to an optical system term kernel 1
associated with coordinates (X, Y) on a wafer. The processing unit (1) further
cuts out, from the rectangular area pattern (S k ×S k ), fine grid rectangular area
patterns (S j ×S j ) having the size equal to an optical system term kernel 2
associated with coordinates (x, y) contained in a predetermined range from the
coordinates (X, Y). The processing unit (1) discriminates the transmission
factors F of the fine grid rectangular areas divided at fine grid intervals dx f , and
determines whether all the transmission factors F of the fine grid rectangular areas
of the mask pattern (22) are 0 or 1. When the processing unit (1) determines that
all the transmission factors F of the fine grid rectangular areas are 0 or 1, the
processing unit 1 performs convolution integration with respect to the kernel 1
corresponding to the coordinates (X, Y) and the transmission factor F of the mask
pattern 22, thereby calculating the light intensity l (X, Y) at a position specified by
the coordinates (X, Y) on the wafer. When the processing unit 1 does not
determine that all the transmission factors F of the fine grid rectangular areas are
0 or 1, the processing unit (1) performs the convolution integration with respect to
the kernel 2 corresponding to the coordinates (x, y) and the transmission factor F

Abstract: A lock-up control system for an automatic
transmission of an automotive vehicle controls operation
of a lock-up clutch for mechanically engaging the
automatic transmission with the engine to enable
transmission of a driving force output from the engine
to the automatic transmission. An engaging force of the
lock-up clutch is controlled in an predetermined
operating region of the automotive vehicle, which is
determined based on operating conditions of the
automotive vehicle and the engine, in such a manner that
an amount of slip of the lock-up clutch becomes equal to
a desired value. An engaging force control amount for
controlling the engaging force of the lock-up clutch is
learned when the automotive vehicle is traveling in the
predetermined operating region with the automatic
transmission being in a predetermined speed position,
and a learned value thus obtained is stored. The
engaging force control amount is calculated by
correcting the stored learned value according to load on
the engine, when the automotive vehicle is traveling
with the automatic transmission being in a speed
position which is suitable for a lower traveling speed
of the automotive vehicle than the predetermined speed
position. The engaging force of the lock-up clutch is
controlled by the use of the corrected engaging force
control amount, when the automotive vehicle is traveling
with the automatic transmission being in the above speed
position which is suitable for the lower speed of the
automotive vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle power steering system 24 has a steering shaft 29, 51
with a rotational position sensor 32 providing signal rollover so that each
sensor output indicates a plurality of potential absolute steering positions
separated from each other by multiples of a rollover angle. Upon each
initiation of vehicle operation, the system selects, as an unadjusted steering
position, one of the plurality of absolute steering positions corresponding to an
initial sensor output; and the system repeatedly updates the unadjusted steering
position in response to sensor output changes, including sensed rollover
events. The system repeatedly tests a set of revolution offsets with the
updated unadjusted steering position and excludes any which indicate an out-of-range
absolute steering position. The final remaining revolution offset is
latched as the correct value. Preferably, a temporary value of revolution
offset used with the unadjusted position during the testing provides a return or
centering torque of zero; and, once the final value is latched, the temporary
value is walked incrementally toward the final value, when the return torque
value is in the correct centering direction, to avoid a sudden increase in return
torque or a return torque in the wrong direction. The walk ends when (1) the
temporary value of revolution offset reaches the final value or (2) the true
value of steering position, derived from the final value of revolution offset and
the unadjusted position, reaches center, whichever occurs first. Thereafter,
the final value of revolution offset is used with the updated unadjusted value to
determine the absolute value, and thus return torque.
