Patent AU-2011217738-A1 (AU)
Title: Active adaptive gyrostabiliser control system
Inventor: STEINMANN PAUL DOUGLAS
IPC: B63B39/04
Filed: 2011-02-17
Abstract: A gyrostabiliser control system and method for stabilising marine vessel motion based on precession information only. The control system employs an Automatic Gain Control (AGC) precession controller (60). This system operates with a gain factor that is always being gradually minimized so as to let the gyro flywheel (12) develop as much precession as possible - the higher the precession, the higher the roll stabilising moment. This continuous gain change provides adaptation to changes in sea state and sailing conditions. The system effectively predicts the likelihood of maximum precession being reached. Should this event be detected, then the gain is rapidly increased so as to provide a breaking precession torque. Once the event has passed, the system again attempts to gradually decrease the gain.

Title: Encoding device and encoding method, as well as decoding device and decoding method
Inventor: HATTORI SHINOBU
IPC: H04N13/00
Filed: 2011-08-31
Abstract: The present invention relates to an encoding device and an encoding method, as well as a decoding device and a decoding method, configured to allow a multi-viewpoint image to be encoded and decoded using a format compatible with an existing format. A compatibility encoder encodes a compatible image (A1) in increments of access units and generates a compatible stream. An auxiliary encoder encodes, in increments of access units, the result of multiplexing auxiliary images (B1, C1) used when a multi-viewpoint image is generated from the compatible image, and generates an encoded stream of the multiplexed auxiliary images. A multiplexing unit transmits the compatible stream, a 3DV representation delimiter showing unit boundaries, and the encoded stream of the multiplexed auxiliary images. This technique can be applied to, e.g., an encoding device for encoding a multi-viewpoint 3D image.

Title: Method and apparatus for producing direct reduced iron utilizing a source of reducing gas comprising hydrogen and carbon monoxide
Inventor: MARTINIS ALESSANDRO
IPC: C21B13/02
Filed: 2011-09-28
Abstract: The present invention concerns a method and an apparatus for producing DRI (Direct Reduced Iron) utilizing a high-oxidation reducing gas containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen, derived directly or indirectly from the gasification of hydrocarbons or coal, with a high content of oxidants (H20 and CO2). The invention provides a more efficient method and plant comprising a reactor in which particulate material of iron ore comes into contact with a high temperature reducing gas to produce DRI, with lower investment and operating costs, avoiding the need for a fired heater for the reducing gas fed into the reduction reactor. The reducing gas is heated to a temperature above 700°C in two steps, a first step at a temperature below about 400°C to prevent the phenomenon of metal dusting, by exchange of sensible heat supplied by the stream of hot spent gas removed from the reduction reactor; and a second step by means of partial or total combustion with oxygen, maintaining the temperature of the combustion gas below the limits established by the construction materials of the combustion chamber.
