Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining the composition and concentration of gases present in a gas sample by measurement of the spectrum of Raman scattered light from these gases. A diode laser illuminates the unknown gas which is contained inside a long hollow tube having a highly reflective interior wall. A laser line pass filter at an entrance aperture of the hollow tube prevents all wavelengths except specific wavelengths characteristic of the laser from entering the long hollow tube. The laser beam and Raman scattered light from the gas sample reflect inside the hollow tube from the highly reflective interior wall. A laser line rejection filter at an exit aperture of the hollow tube prevents the laser beam from exiting the hollow tube but transmits the Raman scattered light from the gas sample. A spectrograph detector or array of discrete filters and detectors detects the Raman scattered light. The output of the detector(s) is then analyzed to identify the constituents of the unknown gas sample and the concentrations of the constituents.

Abstract: Disclosed is an image processing method of expanding the dynamic range by determining a saturated or noise region in an image signal and replacing the image signal with a proper image signal. A threshold value (step S4) is set in units of colors on the basis of a standard image signal for each color, which is obtained upon sensing an image in a standard exposure, and a non-standard image signal for each color, which is obtained upon sensing the image in a non-standard exposure. A saturated or noise region is determined by applying the threshold value set in units of colors to the standard image signal. A region determined as a saturated or noise region is replaced with the non-standard image signal.

Abstract: A lock-up control system for an automatic transmission of an automotive vehicle controls operation of a lock-up clutch for mechanically engaging the automatic transmission with the engine to enable transmission of a driving force output from the engine to the automatic transmission. An engaging force of the lock-up clutch is controlled in an predetermined operating region of the automotive vehicle, which is determined based on operating conditions of the automotive vehicle and the engine, in such a manner that an amount of slip of the lock-up clutch becomes equal to a desired value. An engaging force control amount for controlling the engaging force of the lock-up clutch is learned when the automotive vehicle is traveling in the predetermined operating region with the automatic transmission being in a predetermined speed position, and a learned value thus obtained is stored. The engaging force control amount is calculated by correcting the stored learned value according to load on the engine, when the automotive vehicle is traveling with the automatic transmission being in a speed position which is suitable for a lower traveling speed of the automotive vehicle than the predetermined speed position. The engaging force of the lock-up clutch is controlled by the use of the corrected engaging force control amount, when the automotive vehicle is traveling with the automatic transmission being in the above speed position which is suitable for the lower speed of the automotive vehicle.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne la séparation du technétium contenu dans un métal ayant subi une contamination radioactive, le procédé correspondant comportant trois opérations. Le procédé consiste d'abord à dissoudre le métal contaminé dans une solution acide dans un compartiment (2). Le procédé consiste ensuite à réduire quantitativement le technétium présent dans la solution résultante sous forme d'ions pertechnétate. Cette réduction restitue le technétium à l'état métallique grâce à une réaction par lit (13) de déplacement de métal (cémentation) avec un métal base présentant un potentiel réducteur inférieur. Le procédé consiste enfin à récupérer électrolytiquement de la solution dans une cellule électrolytique (1) le métal à traiter, qui est alors sensiblement exempt de contamination par le technétium.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un système et un procédé conçus pour permettre à des robots, à des dispositifs, à des outils etc., de voir l'environnement dans lequel ils évoluent, au moyen d'une paire de caméras identiques, alignées, compatibles et coordonnées dont les champs de visions (photographiques) sont parallèles et ajustés en divergence parallèle (M) pour chacune des lignes, sans exception, de ces champs de vision. Ledit système doit permettre auxdits dispositifs d'identifier tout objet visualisé par les caméras immédiatement et à la vitesse de prise de vues photographiques ou cinématographiques. Le système de vision informatique de l'invention reçoit les images des caméras et les stocke en un emplacement prévu à cet usage et une sauvegarde est créée pour le champ de vision à  partir des images stockées dans la mémoire spatiale. Ledit système calcule la distance pour chacun des points de l'image de même que les dimensions des formes et enregistre leurs différentes caractéristiques. Ledit système comporte un registre mémoire destiné à l'identification des mouvements à intervalles de temps donnés et au calcul du déplacement, du mouvement, de la vitesse et de la direction de chacune des formes présentes sur les images de la caméra maître, reçues après filtrage des couleurs, et il comporte également un registre des formes de base et une table de données telle que la 'vraie' table. Lesdits registres sont destinés à la détection des données, des caractéristiques, des définitions et à l'établissement des conclusions pour les éléments clés. Les données, les caractéristiques, les définitions et les conclusions permettent de constituer des clés associées aux formes non identifiées, compatibles avec les formes reconnues et stockées, ce qui permet une identification totale et presque immédiate des formes non identifiées.

Abstract: In communication with an address translation unit having internal
memory, a flush check circuit is implemented to determine, prior to loading
an address translation into the internal memory, whether one of the plurality
of entries already contains a virtual address utilized by the address
translation. If so, an error has occurred with the flushing operations of the
address translation unit because the address translation should have already
been removed. In response, the flush check circuit signals logic to perform
error handling techniques such as issuing an error signal, storing the invalid
address translation unit, or transmitting the virtual address of the address
translation without loading that address translation.

Abstract: Even if a rotational speed of an engine has already
increased due to slipping of a fluid torque converter at
the time of start of downshifting, a smooth downshifting
is performed. For that purpose, there is obtained a speed
change developing degree function K(etrm) of the
rotational speed of the engine at the time of start of
downshifting, the developing degree being dependent on an
increase in the rotational speed of the engine due to
slipping in the fluid torque converter. The function
K(etrm) is obtained with a speed ratio "etrm" of the fluid
torque converter at the time of starting of downshifting
as a parameter. A boosting correction value QDNOFFZ is
computed by multiplying a reference correction value
QDNOFFZO by K(etrm) (step S108-5). The hydraulic pressure
of the hydraulic engaging element on the disengaging side
during downshifting is boosted by the amount of QDNOFFZ
(step S108-6).

Abstract: An illumination system for a scanning lithography system
used in the manufacture of semiconductor devices having a
multiplex array or multi-image array resulting in pattern noise
that is reduced by a spatially frequency modulated multiplex
array or frequency modulating the pulse rate of a pulsed laser
source. A pulsed laser source is used to illuminate a reticle
containing a pattern thereon to be reproduced onto a
semiconductor. An illumination system using a multiplex array or
multi-image array to obtain macro uniformity of an illumination
slot or field introduces micro non-uniformity that results in
undesirable pattern noise or fixed pattern noise resulting in
undesirable imaging properties. The undesirable effects of the
pattern noise are eliminated or substantially reduced by
spatially modulating the multiplex array in a scanning direction
so that the periodic pattern has a linear magnification dependent
on position. In another embodiment the pulse rate of the pulsed
laser source is frequency modulated. The present invention 
improves linewidth control, linewidth variation, and edge
roughness.
