Abstract: Polyolefin foam bead having a high-density crust and a
method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The novel
polyolefin foam bead having an surface layer (crust) which
is higher in density than its inner structure can be
manufactured by the method comprised of impregnating a
polyolefin resin with a forming agent by stirring the
mixture of the polyolefin resin particles, water and the
foaming agent in a pressure vessel under heat, followed by
diffusing out the foaming agent from the surface layer of
the resin particle to decrease the concentration of the
foaming agent in the surface layer. Thereafter, the
polyolefin resin is foamed by discharging the resin
particles to low pressure environment.

Patent EP-1130801-A2 (EP)
Inventor: STICHTER ALLEN W
IPC: H04L7/00
Filed: 2001-02-19
Abstract: A method that initiates several time synchronization passes between clock
slave components and a clock master component in a wireless telecommunications
system is provided. For every pass, each clock slave component generates and
transmits a first timing cell to the clock master. The first timing cell contains a
transmission time based on the clock slave component's clock. Upon receipt of the first
timing cell, the clock master generates and transmits to the clock slave component a
second timing cell containing the time the clock master received the first timing cell and
the time the master transmitted the second timing cell. Upon receipt of the second
timing cell, the clock slave component will obtain its reception time and calculate a
transmission delay based on the reception time and the timing information contained in
the timing cells. Each clock slave component utilizes a filtering function to drop
information from a synchronization pass that may have undesirable data due to
processing and other delays. The filtering function will also restart the synchronization
process whenever a calculated transmission delay is smaller than the best delay. This
allows the process to accurately hone in on the proper delay experienced between each
clock slave component and the clock master. After timing information from a
predetermined number of time synchronization passes has been obtained, each clock
slave component uses an average transmission delay to synchronize its time to the clock
master time.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling the operation of
a "lean-burn" internal combustion engine (12) in co-operation
with an exhaust gas purification system having an
emissions control device (34,36) capable of alternatively
storing and releasing NO x  when exposed to exhaust gases that
are lean and rich of stoichiometry, respectively, optimises
vehicle fuel economy while complying with emissions
standards by prohibiting lean engine operation only when
tailpipe emissions, calculated in terms of grams of an
exhaust gas constituent per vehicle mile travelled, exceeds
a permissible threshold value. The threshold value is
preferably itself periodically determined based upon a
detected or determined level of vehicle activity, such that
vehicle activity characterised by greater transient engine
operation prescribes a relatively lower level of permissible
vehicle emissions.

Abstract: The invention seeks to provide a liquid-crystal panel that
presents a high-density wiring while maintaining reliability of the
wiring. Odd-numbered scanning lines 312-1, 312-3,..., 312-199 are
connected to a first wiring group G1 while even-numbered scanning lines
312-2, 312-4,..., 312-200 are connected to a second wiring group G2.
Each of the scanning lines 312-1 through 312-200 is supplied with a
scanning signal the polarity of which is inverted every horizontal
scanning period. Among wirings 240 forming the first wiring group G1
and the second wiring group G2, a line-to-line voltage between any
adjacent wirings becomes zero volts for most of the time. Degradation
of the wirings due to electrolytic corrosion is controlled even if the
spacing between the wirings is narrowed.

Abstract: A storage and data management system establishes a data transfer pipeline between an application and a storage media using a source data mover and a destination data mover. The data movers are modular software entities which compartmentalize the differences between operating systems and media types. In addition, they independently interact to perform encryption, compression, etc., based on the content of a file as it is being communicated through the pipeline. Headers and chunking of data occurs when beneficial without the application ever having to be aware. Faster access times and storage mapping offer enhanced user interaction.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de télémétrie par voie passive. Le principe est de découper la lumière focalisée en plusieurs faisceaux dirigés vers des capteurs d'image se trouvant chacun à une distance différente de trajet optique à partir du plan focal. Le degré de flou obtenu sur deux capteurs d'image au moins pour différents objets ponctuels donne une information servant de base au calcul de l'éloignement des objets dans le champ de la caméra. Le système de découpage en faisceaux, spécifique de l'invention, permet de diriger vers différents capteurs d'image plusieurs images sensiblement identiques tout en conservant des dimensions physiques relativement faibles, ce qui permet de minimiser les dimensions et le poids de la caméra. Cette invention permet une télémétrie en temps réel en continu convenant aussi bien pour des objets statiques que des objets mobiles.
