Patent NO-20030674-D0 (NO)
Inventor: KLAVENESS BJOERN
IPC: A61B5/107
Filed: 2003-02-11
Abstract: A method for measuring the 3D surface ( 15 ) of an object ( 14 ) in order to describe its form digitally. The object is pressed down on a membrane ( 6 ) so as to make an imprint to be transferred to a medium ( 4 ) below. Said medium can at the same time be exposed to a pressure for controlling the submerging therein. The imprint under the object ( 14 ) is scanned from below, through the medium ( 4 ), and particularly the transparency of the medium is registered in each scanning point to give a base for estimating the height up to the imprint and thereby the third dimension (z) of the surface ( 15 ). The pressure applied to a medium ( 4 ) can as an example be useful by the production of foot beds when said object ( 14 ) is a foot, together with a scanning result of an imprint where the imprint is made by an even pressure distribution at the downward-facing surface.

Inventor: CROUZEN PAULUS CAROLUS NICOLAA
IPC: G01N27/90
Filed: 2005-07-18
Abstract: There is disclosed a method for monitoring wall thickness of an object having an electrically conductive wall, using a pulsed eddy current probe, wherein the same location on the wall is inspected repeatedly over an extended period of time. The pulsed eddy current probe is arranged in a predetermined position relative to the inspection location. The wall thickness dm is determined from a signal Vm which is recorded as a function of time t and from which a characteristic value Phim is determined, which is used to determined the wall thickness. The measurements are corrected for the influence of temperature. The disclosed method is particularly suitable for determining the rate of corrosion at the inspection location.

Title: Treatment
Filed: 2010-08-17
Abstract: The present invention derives from the finding that increased levels of Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) is associated with liver failure and renal dysfunction and/or brain dysfunction and that by decreasing TLR4 levels in vivo, the kidney and brain consequences of liver disease that are precipitated by superimposed infection or inflammation may be reduced.

Title: Improvements relating to subsea compression
Filed: 2011-08-17
Abstract: In a subsea apparatus 10 and method for processing a well stream 2 subsea, gas 3 is separated from liquid 5 contained in the well stream 2 before being cooled and then re-combined with the separated liquid 5 to form a wet gas 52 for a compressor 90. The gas 3 may be cooled through a cooler 30 in which seawater 70 is circulated past the outer surface 35 of gas cooling tubes, with the assistance of a pump 62 of an active cooling arrangement 60. The proportion of liquid 42 from a liquid collecting column 40 which is added to the cooled gas 32 at a mixing point 50 to make wet gas 52 is controlled 48 by a flow valve 44. Separating the gas before cooling it, rather than conventionally cooling a gas/liquid mixture then separating it, enables the apparatus to be arranged compactly and provided on a subsea retrievable module.

Title: Method for compensating the temperature dependence of the oscillation amplitude of a generator excited oscillating circuit, an oscillator compensated by this method and the use of such an oscillator
Inventor: HEIMLICHER PETER
IPC: H03K17/95
Filed: 1982-06-24
Granted: 1985-03-28
Abstract: A method of using the temperature coefficient of the copper resistance of an oscillating coil to compensate for the temperature coefficient of the quality factor of the same oscillating coil. To this end, a voltage proportional to the copper resistance of the oscillating coil is generated across the oscillating circuit. The oscillator according to the process comprises an oscillating coil which comprises a high frequency litz wire. In order to access the copper resistance of the coil one of the litz wires is separated from the other wire at a first terminal of the coil and separately connected to a second terminal of this coil. From this second terminal, the coil is seen as a bifilar coil. A constant alternating current source is connected to the second terminal in order to generates across the oscillating circuit a voltage proportional to the copper resistance of the coil. The oscillator is preferably used for proximity switches having relatively large switching distance.
