Title: Tri axis high frequency fiber optic acoustic sensor
Inventor: BEVAN DENNIS
IPC: G01H9/00
Filed: 2007-03-13
Granted: 2014-09-23
Abstract: A fiber optic acoustic sensor that detects pressure waves from all incident angles features multiple mandrels orthogonally disposed to provide omni-directional sensing capability. The topology of the mandrels prevents frequency response drop-off characteristic of cylindrical sensors at wavelengths smaller than ? the length of the acoustic cylinder. The larger operating bandwidth and omni-directional sensing capability makes this fiber optic acoustic sensor a suitable choice for a wide range of applications.

Abstract: Acoustic Deterrence A method and system of deterring mammalsis disclosedinvolving incurring an acoustic startle responsecomprisingthe steps of:selecting a target order, family, genus or species to be deterred;selecting a received level that is a predetermined level above a representative hearing threshold of the targeted mammals; and,taking transmission loss into account, transmitting an acoustic signal at a source levelrequired to create the selectedreceived levelat a predetermined distance from the transmission point.The acoustic signal may comprise frequency components at which the aural sensitivity of the targeted mammals is greater than that of selected other animals, preventing the disturbance of the selected other animals whilst deterring the targeted mammals. In addition, a secondary conditioning sound may be played prior to the main acoustic signalto condition the mammals to avoid the main stimulus. Furthermore, using the same steps, an aversive stimulus may be played that elicits an avoidance without a startle reflex. The characteristics of these aversive sounds are those found to beunpleasant to humans. Accordingly, the aversive sound is selected to have one or more of the following psychophysical features: high roughness; low tonality; high loudness; high sharpness.

Abstract: Le procédé et l'appareil décrits permettent la fourniture de services de communication sans fil (par exemple, des services de diffusion/multidiffusion multimédia (MBMS)). Une unité émettrice/réceptrice sans fil (WTRU) détecte une pluralité de NAEuds-B évolués (eNodeB) de cellule cible qui sont voisins d'un nAEud eNodeB de cellule de desserte. La WTRU évalue des critères de resélection de cellule et détermine un eNodeB de cellule cible voisin à resélectionner. La WTRU reçoit et lit un bloc d'informations maître (MIB) et des messages d'informations système de l'eNodeB de cellule cible voisin, et confirme que l'eNodeB de cellule cible voisin déterminé ne fait pas partie d'un réseau monofréquence de diffusion multimédia (MBSFN). La WTRU identifie l'eNodeB de cellule cible voisin auprès de l'eNodeB de la cellule de desserte. Ensuite, la WTRU reçoit et lit de nouveau les messages MIB de l'eNodeB de cellule cible voisin pour déterminer si les informations système ont changé et, si tel est le cas, la WTRU lit les informations système et effectue une resélection vers l'eNodeB de cellule cible voisin, qui fournit les services de communication sans fil.

Abstract: A process for extracting ore from a vein (10) comprises drilling spaced-apart boreholes (16) directly in the vein (10). The boreholes (16) are enlarged using thermal fragmentation generally up to the boundaries between the vein and surrounding waste. A blasthole (18) is then drilled in the vein between the thermally enlarged boreholes (17) for placement of explosive. The explosive is fired to break the ore between the enlarged boreholes (17). The enlarged boreholes (17) act as weakening regions to direct the blasting effect and minimize dilution.

Abstract: A process for continuous manufacturing of moisture-curable polyurethane formulations used as sealants and adhe-sives. The process is characterized by the fact that the reactive components are introduced independently, and without the need for a prepolymer, to a mixer. Solid or liquid raw materials can be either pre-blended or fed directly to the mixer, a twin-screw extruder, which provides the requisite energy to homogenously mix the raw materials and drive the chemical reaction. The process is designed so that the extruder barrel and screw allow variable feed addition and heat exchange down the length of the machine. This allows various operations to be performed at different points in the extruder, including reaction, dispersive mixing, distributive mixing and devolitization.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a demineralized milk that enables excellent reduction in the amount of monovalent minerals while suppressing any reduction in the amount of divalent minerals, as well as a demineralized milk produced using the above process, a process for producing a cheese and whey from the demineralized milk, and a cheese and whey produced using the above process. In the present invention, a demineralized milk having a significantly reduced amount of monovalent minerals is obtained by passing a raw milk through an anion exchange resin in chloride form to effect anion exchange so that a value for the chloride ion concentration within the raw milk is increased to the same value as the concentration of monovalent mineral cations contained within the raw milk, and removing monovalent minerals contained within said raw milk following said anion exchange using a nanofiltration process. Further, a cheese and whey can be produced by heating the obtained demineralized milk to produce a curd, and then separating the curd from the liquid other than the curd by solid-liquid separation.
