Abstract: The method involves introducing an emergency braking mode, if, at absence of a brake activation or at a pressure build-up, the pressure in a wheel deviates from the nominal pressure. A pressure equalisation is undertaken by performing a pressure regulation of this wheel in a pressure regulation circuit with the other wheel of the same axis. The method involves determining nominal wheel brake forces for the individual wheel brakes in response to a brake activation, and adjusting the wheel brake force, accordingly, in dependence on a measured wheel brake force. An emergency braking mode is introduced, if, at absence of a brake activation or at a pressure build-up, the pressure in a wheel deviates from the nominal pressure. A pressure equalisation is undertaken by performing a pressure regulation of this wheel in a pressure regulation circuit with the other wheel of the same axis. Different emergency braking modes may be introduced according to different detected error conditions, whereby the error recognition results preferably based on a model which considers the current working condition of the braking system. An Independent claim is provided for a corresponding braking control arrangement.

Abstract: A method and apparatus therefor, for the sterilisation of waste material,
particularly though not exclusively medical waste is provided. The waste material is
comminuted, loaded into a pressure, vessel, treated with steam and removed from the
pressure vessel. The latent heat in the steam heats the waste material to a sufficiently
high temperature to effect sterilisation. The pressure vessel is purged of air prior to
being pressurised with steam. After sterilisation the water that has built up in the
pressure vessel is drained off, before the pressure in the vessel is released. As the
vessel and its contents are still at a high temperature, this sudden release in pressure
results in a considerable drying of the waste material.

Abstract: An adaptive fuzzy logic based control system for rifle stabilization uses a rifle where the
barrel is freely pivoted on the stock which is held by the human being firing the rifle
who may be shooting from a moving vehicle or helicopter; alternatively, the firing
person may have erratic hand or body motion. During a tracking mode, when the
target is being sighted in, undesired motion is sensed by position sensors to effectively
lock the rifle barrel in alignment with the stock. During a stabilizing mode just before
actuation of the trigger to fire the rifle, the barrel is unlocked, inertial rate sensors make
the barrel relatively immune to movement of the stock to facilitate the barrel remaining
sighted on the tracked target. The fire control system includes a fuzzy logic controller
which by a set of inference rules provides for both alignment of the barrel with the stock
during tracking and also for stabilization of the barrel just prior to firing.

IPC: F28D1/03

Abstract: With convector installations in the floors of buildings, normally
directly on the inside of an outer wall (2) of glass, it is customary
for a convector element (10) to be placed in a floor channel (6), and
for this channel (6) to be covered with a tread-grid (12) at floor
level. In order to work effectively, the convector element (10) must be
of a certain height, which traditionally means that the floor channel
(6) must be so deep that it is necessary to effect a local lowering of
the underside of the storey separation (4) in which the installation is
to be carried out, which is hardly desirable. With the invention, this
is avoided in that the convector element (10) in itself is configured
with an upperside which enables it to serve as a presentable tread-grid
(12), whereby the element can be mounted with its upperside at floor
level and thus not down under an overlying, separate grid, thus hereby
enabling the depth of the channel to be minimised.

Abstract: A method and device are described for detecting bits in a read signal sampled at a system clock frequency which deviates from the bit frequency. A series of bit-frequency relevant signal values (B12) is computed from the series of system clock frequency-measured sample values (B1, B2, ...) as a convolution of the measured sample values having a function centered around the desired sampling instant, which function is the Fourier transform of a predetermined pulse response of the sampling procedure. This pulse response is chosen to be such that the sampling procedure is reliable for bit frequencies up to twice the system clock frequency. To be able to process such high bit frequencies in actual practice, a bit detector (320) according to the invention has two data outputs (321, 322) and one validity output (225). Whenever a computation has been finished, a pulse is supplied at the validity output whose frequency may be maximally equal to the system clock frequency. Per validity pulse, the bit detector can supply two sample values simultaneously at its two data outputs.
