Abstract: Detonating projectiles are fired into a target area by a weapon, the time between firing and detonation being one second or less. By setting the target location at the same distance as e.g. the edge ( 1 ) of a building ( 3 ), however laterally displaced with respect to that edge, it is possible to obtain an effect also in an area invisible to the bearer of the weapon. For simulating this weapon, for example in house-to-house fighting, it is proposed to affix devices ( 5 ) comprising a sensor ( 22 ) and a transmitter ( 27 ) to obstacles. When the weapon is fired, a simulation device provided on the weapon transmits a firing signal to the sensor ( 22 ), the latter activating the transmitter ( 27 ). Similarly to the real effect of the weapon, the transmitter ( 27 ) emits an impact signal in the impact area ( 7 ) which also includes the mentioned area which is invisible to the bearer of the weapon. On account of the independent operation of the transceiver unit ( 5 ), it is possible to simulate the effect of this weapon substantially without delay as compared to reality.

Abstract: The invention relates to a harmonic drive (12) which can be provided with overload protection that is easy to influence constructionally and a free-wheeling characteristic. To this end, the spokes (21) of the internal geared wheel (15) are specifically deformable depending on the torque or the direction of rotation. The spoke shafts (22) are divided crosswise to the drive axis (24) or in a radial direction in relation thereto. This division (45) is bridged over flexibly in the peripheral direction of the internal geared wheel so that the effective radial length of the spoke may be reduced in the presence of the appropriate bending stress by buckling the shaft, in order to then eliminate the local toothing contact between the internal geared wheel edges (13) and the outer support ring (11) in the extension of the spoke. The bridging of the spoke division can be configured differently for the two directions of rotation in order to obtain different response characteristics, up to direction-dependent free-wheeling characteristics e.g. in the event of a considerably unsymmetrical spoke shaft course in relation to the radials.

Abstract: Barley with reduced SSII activity has a starch structure with reduced amylopectin content and a consequent high relative amylose content. Additionally the grain has can have a relatively high ² glucan content. The structure of the starch may also be altered in a number of ways which can be characterised by having a low gelatinsation temperature but with reduced swelling. The viscosity of gelatinised starch of the starch is also reduced. There is a chain length distribution of the amylopectin content and a low crystallinity of the starch. The starch is also characterised by having high levels of lipid associated starch exhibiting very high levels of V form starch crystallinity. The dietary fibre content of the starch is high. This has desirable dietary and food processing characteristics.

Abstract: The use of fiber metal or similarly high flow resistance and high acoustic transparency material as a liner for traditional acoustically absorptive media in a dissipative muffler exhibits improved low frequency sound attenuation, reduces backpressure, and eliminates media entrainment or "blow-out" phenomenon which results in longer muffler life. The same class of materials may also be used to fashion an element that provides linear occlusion inside an otherwise line-of-sight type of muffler, where the occluding element provides improved impedance-matching acoustic absorption. Disclosed embodiments providing linear occlusion minimize traditional increases in muffler backpressure by incorporating helical, conical, and annular members in mufflers with round ducts. To maximize attenuation, a muffler according to the invention may feature both a fiber metal fill liner and a fiber metal linear occlusion element. Further, the liner that connects the inlet and outlet ports of the muffler may feature an offset, elbow, or turn that would simultaneously allow it to provide means for linear occlusion.
