Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided in which direct ohmic connection is made to a comminution device (e.g., a wood chip or pulp refiner) to obtain transient voltages, existing on the refining elements, that are directly related to fiber impacts. These voltages are characterized by severity (S) (i.e., magnitude), rate (N), rise time (RT) and polarity (+/-P). The characteristics of these voltages taken separately and/or in mathematical combinations predict the properties of refined wood chips and pulps, i.e., freeness, tensile strength, tear, burst, breaking length and fiber length. Signal characteristics further track refiner plate wear and detect the occurrence of "critical gap" as well as the onset of plate clash.

Abstract: Systèmes et procédés tenant compte du fait que la rate retient normalement un certain nombre de plaquettes en réserve, hors de la circulation. Au cours du traitement du sang, la rate libère ces plaquettes dans l'appareil circulatoire du donneur, ce qui les rend disponibles pour être prélevées. Ces systèmes et procédés estiment le nombre de plaquettes NRATE tenues en réserve par la rate dans le corps humain. Ils dérivent une fonction de mobilisation splénique (Rate) qui peut être exprimée en fonction d'un précomptage de plaquettes PltPRE. Ils estiment NRATE où: NRATE = (Rate-1) x PltPRE x DonVol, DonVol étant le volume de sang du corps. Ils peuvent également estimer le nombre total de plaquettes NPLT dans le corps humain, tenant compte de la fonction Rate, où NPLT = PltPRE x Rate x DonVol.

Abstract: A method and system including a high speed computer algorithm for rotating images stored in a computer memory, such as those captured by a CCD array. The method and system may be used with an over-the-belt optical character recognition (OCR) reader that captures a pixelized image of the surface of a parcel as it moves along a conveyor. A run-length encoded output image is obtained from a run-length encoded input image, wherein the output image is a rotated version of the input image. A predefined pixel mapping sequence for a rotation angle with a rational tangent is used to map image pixel data. Mapping image pixel data using a predefined pixel mapping sequence allows rotation without floating point computations, and allows the use of a reverse pixel mapping technique to map output runs from an input image in order to avoid the creation of holes or artifacts in the output image. Mapped output runs are scaled to preserve the aspect ratio of the rotated image. The order of processing the elements of the input run-length input table is selected so as to directly create a run-length encoded output table.
