Abstract: A method is described for qualifying a multisection semiconductor laser using measurements of excursions from stable operating conditions to neighbouring mode boundaries at which the laser undergoes mode-hopping. These excursions are measured when the laser is characterised to provide a measure of the stability and hence the quality of the laser, and to facilitate statisctical analysis of the quality of a batch of lasers from a given wafer. The values of the excursions may be re-measured during the life of the laser using a curtailed version of the characterising procedure rapidly to monitor aging or other deterioration of the laser.

Abstract: A method for laying a pipeline on the sea bed from a lay barge in order to achieve controlled thermal expansion, comprises the following steps: Feeding out of the pipeline having a radius of initial residual curvature from a pipeline reel, preferably via a stinger to a curvature device where a radius of reversal curvature is applied to the opposite side of the pipeline with respect to the radius of initial residual curvature when the pipelines is passing through the curvature device. The curvature device straightens out the pipeline to longer, mainly straight portions with length having a radius of residual curvature which is larger than a desire minimum radius of residual curvature. The curvature device exposes shorter portions of the pipeline with a length for a radius of counter curvature forming the thermal expansion loops having a radius of residual curvature which is less than a desired maximum radius of residual curvature for the thermal expansion loops. The result is controlled pipe deflection under thermal expansion of the pipeline in operation position on the seabed and under operational loads, in that the deflection of the pipeline may appear in the thermal expansion loops of the pipeline.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to increase the protection of pedestrians during a collision with a vehicle. To achieve this, the front structure and the front bonnet in particular are configured in such a way that for typical accident situations, which are reconstructed in defined simulations, the HIC value for a head impact does not exceed 1,000. It has been proven that this can be achieved if the deceleration curve has an initially high deceleration peak. According to the invention, a front structure that guarantees this has deformation elements (6) consisting of several sub-sections (10a - 10d), which are interconnected by breaking points (11a - 11c). When subjected to dynamic stress, such as occurs during a head impact, the breaking points fracture in such a way that the individual sub-sections (10a - 10d) are pushed against one another with zero force.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for leveling at least one output light beam in a construction tool. One embodiment of the apparatus includes a laser optical assembly for producing output light beams that define plumb, level, and right angle beams for use in construction applications. The optical assembly is mounted on an optical platform which permits tilting about "slip-stick" joints that define two perpendicular axes of rotation. Such joints allow the optical platform to change its angle of tilt in response to an applied torque and to maintain the changed angle of tilt until further torque is applied. Also, the "slip-stick" mechanism prevents substantial movement or oscillation of the optical platform in the absence of the applied torque. The embodiment further includes a sensor element for determining whether the output beams are level. In the event the output beams are not level, control circuitry of the embodiment activates a driving element to controllably apply torque to the optical platform thereby tilting the optical platform until the output beams are leveled.
