Abstract: A pre-fillable hypodermic syringe is provided. The
hypodermic syringe includes a syringe barrel having opposed
proximal and distal ends and a drug-receiving chamber
therebetween. The distal end of the syringe receives a needle
cannula that is sealingly and protectively covered by a cap. The
proximal end of the syringe is sealed by a stopper assembly. The
stopper assembly includes a distal stopper that is positioned
adjacent the drug pre-filled into the syringe barrel. The distal
stopper is formed to exhibit acceptably low sliding forces without
the presence of lubricants deleterious to the drug. The stopper
assembly further includes a proximal stopper formed from a
material that exhibits acceptable microbiological sealing. Because
the proximal stopper is separated from the drug by the distal
stopper the proximal stopper may be treated with any convenient
lubricant such as silicone oil. The distal stopper functions as a
barrier between the drug and the lubricant such as silicone oil that is
on or near the proximal stopper. The proximal stopper, on the
other hand, provides the required microbiological sealing.

Abstract: The present invention provides particles for a non-magnetic
undercoat layer of a magnetic recording medium, which comprises
acicular hematite particles having an average major axial diameter
of not more than 0.3 µm, a geometrical standard deviation in the
major axial diameter of not more than 1.50 and a BET specific
surface area of not less than 40 m 2 /g, and containing a total
amount of sodium of not more than 50 ppm calculated as Na. The
acicular hematite particles have an excellent dispersibility in a

particles is excellent in surface smoothness and strength. A
magnetic recording medium using the non-magnetic undercoat layer is
excellent not only in electromagnetic performance, but in storage
stability.

Abstract: Lyocell which has been cross-linked with a nitrogen containing compound to reduce
the tendency of the lyocell to fibrillate is bleached with an oxygen bleaching
composition which comprises peracetic acid or its anion. Advantageously the
composition comprises a major part of hydrogen peroxide and a minor part of
peracetic acid or its anion, thereby combining the strong oxidising capability of
peracetic acid with the ability to produce good bleaching under alkaline conditions.
The peracetic acid may be generated by reacting an acetyl donating bleach activator
such as tetraethylene diamine with excess hydrogen peroxide.

Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle brake system comprising an active service brake unit (1) and an electrically controllable parking brake unit (2). The service brake unit (1) has a measurable and adjustable active service brake device (5, 7) (for example, a traction control system/electronic stability programme, hydraulic control unit, analogue/active booster, brake-by-wire system, etc.). To provide an electrical parking brake function which is convenient to operate while making the overall assembly of the motor vehicle brake system as easy as possible, the invention provides for the service brake unit (1) and the parking brake unit (2) to be interconnected in such a way that when an operating element (9, 17) is actuated for the parking-brake function or if an equivalent control signal of an electronic driving assistance system is present a suitable component of either the service brake unit (1) or the parking brake unit (2) is used for braking and/or locking or blocking the motor vehicle. This type of interconnection has the advantage of providing a constant exchange of information or data between the parking brake unit and the service brake unit and therefore allows for the coordinated use of the electrically controllable friction brake (8) of the service brake unit and a locking device (11) of the parking brake unit (2).

Abstract: Joint prostheses which have one joint partner configured as a socket and the other joint partner configured as a ball head generally consist of two components. The socket is comprised of a metallic outer cup in which an insertion cup made of ceramic material or of a biocompatible plastic is inserted. The shaft has a peg, the so-called cone, on which a ball head is placed. The press fit connection, especially so-called conical pressing, is used as a connection technique between the respective components. Stress can result in a relative movement between the components, thus leading to a wear-related loosening of the connection thereof. In order to solve this problem, the invention provides that, from the prosthetic components (2, 3), the component (3) made of ceramic or plastic fitted with a covering (6), said covering being made of a biocompatible metal or of a biocompatible metal alloy, on the pressing surface (7) thereof via which said component (3) is connected to the metal component (2).

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un générateur d'énergie nucléaire, comprenant un assemblage combustible nucléaire qui est placé périodiquement d'abord à proximité adjacente d'un premier réacteur nucléaire contenant du combustible nucléaire frais, où l'assemblage combustible atteint un état surcritique, puis à proximité adjacente d'un second réacteur nucléaire contenant du combustible nucléaire épuisé, où des neutrons retardés résultant de l'état surcritique de l'assemblage combustible amènent le combustible épuisé dans un état surcritique, entraînant ainsi la libération de chaleur. Cette invention présente également un moteur à expansion de vapeur mû par l'énergie nucléaire, qui est capable de convertir l'énergie nucléaire en travail mécanique, en rapprochant périodiquement deux assemblages combustibles nucléaires à l'intérieur d'un ensemble à piston et cylindre, amenant ainsi successivement les assemblages combustibles à un état surcritique et à un état sous-critique de façon cyclique, avec un chauffage cyclique associé, et injectant périodiquement de l'eau dans le cylindre chauffé qui en résulte, cette eau étant convertie en vapeur, laquelle se dilate, entraîne le piston et produit un travail mécanique, et en recyclant la vapeur dilatée par adjonction de chaleur supplémentaire pendant la course d'échappement, et en utilisant la vapeur recyclée pour entraîner un système de turbine.

Abstract: L'invention concerne le problème de filtrage, de décimation ou d'interpolation et de conversion de fréquence dans le domaine numérique et, plus particulièrement, l'utilisation du canaliseur et décanaliseur numérique dans des structures de canalisation, récepteur multicanal large bande, et des structures de décanalisation, émetteur multicanal large bande. L'invention associe un algorithme de convolution rapide autonome qui est davantage modifié puis associé au traitement de signaux additionnels. Par une division intelligente de l'efficacité de filtrage entre le bloc-algorithme de convolution rapide modifié et un bloc-traitement de signaux additionnels, on créée une synergie entre les deux blocs, ce qui permet de réduire les coûts, les délais et la taille des TFR. Ces avantages sont particulièrement utiles dans n'importe quel système gérant simultanément de multiples canaux, mais plus particulièrement là où il y a de sévères exigences tant en termes de délai que de taille d'entrée de TFR.
