Abstract: A process of casting a molten metal to form a cast metal strip ingot while controlling heat flux from the cast metal. The process comprises continuously supplying molten metal to a casting cavity formed between a pair of moving continuous casting surfaces that withdraw heat from the molten metal to cause metal solidification, and continuously withdrawing a resulting cast strip ingot from the casting cavity. A gas (e.g. air) containing water vapour substantially without liquid water (i.e. a moist gas) is supplied to the inlet of the casting cavity in a region containing the meniscus formed where the molten metal first contacts the casting surfaces. The moist gas has the effect of adjusting the heat withdrawal by the casting surfaces to minimize surface defects in the cast strip ingot and to avoid undesired distortion of the casting cavity. Furthermore, in those cases where a parting agent is applied to the casting surfaces, the amount of parting agent applied to the casting surfaces may be reduced. The invention also relates to equipment provided for the delivery and dewpoint control of the moist gas.

Abstract: A multiband antenna applicable as an internal antenna in small mobile terminals especially. The antenna (200) is a PIFA placed inside the housing of a mobile station with at least two operating bands. A first resonance falling into a lower operating band is produced by means of a radiating conductive pattern (B21) in planar element (220). To improve characteristics of the antenna in the upper operating band the planar element further comprises a slot (232) which goes between the feed point (F) and the short-circuit point (S) of the antenna. The radiator provided by this slot can be considered a quarter-wave slot radiator or a half-wave loop radiator. The PIFA further may have another radiator, which resonates in the upper operation band. By means of said slot the upper operating band of an antenna can be widened or the radiation in the horizontal plane in the upper operating band can be made more effective. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An evaporator in a steam generator extracts heat from high temperature gases to convert heated water into saturated steam. The evaporator includes two sections-a once-through section and a circulation section, both of which include tubes located in the flow of hot gases. Heated water flows through the tubes of the once-through section at a rate sufficient to maintain the interiors of its tube fully wetted while enabling steam to develop in that water, with the steam having a quality of at least 20%. The circulation section includes a drum that is connected to the tubes of that section such that water from the drum circulates through the tubes and then back to the drum, with the circulation being such that the water in the tubes of the circulation section keeps the tubes fully wetted while steam develops in that water. The water from the tubes of the once-through section discharges into the drum as does the water circulating back from the tubes of the circulation section. Within the drum, the steam formerly entrained in the water escapes. Since the tubes of both sections remain fully wetted the heat transfer occurs most efficiently. The presence of the once-through section enables the circulation section to be reduced in size and this shortens start up. The drum confines most impurities to the liquid water that is circulated in the circulation section, and these impurities may be removed through a blowdown.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for the development of effective cancer therapies using mitotic inhibitors which have limited general toxicity to normal, non-cancerous cells and tissues are provided. The methods and compositions utilize cytotoxic compounds comprised of a cell-binding agent (e.g., antibodies) conjugated to an anti-mitotic compound (e.g., maytansinoids). The invention further provides antibodies which are substantially incapable of inducing antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), thereby ensuring that the therapeutic effect is mediated primarily by the anti-mitotic component of the cytotoxic compound, rather than by indirect cell killing via ADCC and/or CDC. The antibodies of the invention further are capable of differentiating between polypeptide antigens which are more highly expressed on proliferating cancer cells as compared to proliferating non-cancer cells.
