Abstract: A process for determining an actual reference profile depth on a tire on a vehicle axle, comprises determining the wear on the profile of a tire on a second axle, using the reference profile depth, and then determining the actual reference profile depth from the wear and the wear relationship between the two tires. A process for determining an actual reference profile depth on a tire on a vehicle axle, comprises determining the wear on the profile of a tire on a second axle, using the reference profile depth, and then determining the actual reference profile depth from the wear and the wear relationship between the two tires. The reference rotational frequency of the reference tire is measured, along with the rotational frequency of the tire on the second axle. A quotient is then formed from the reference rotational frequency and the rotational frequency, which is then multiplied by the reference profile depth to determine the actual depth. The arrangement used to determine the profile depth includes a sensor (47), a data storage unit (49), a computer (48) and a display (55).

Abstract: A sample module for use in a downhole tool includes a sample chamber (110) for receiving and
storing pressurized fluid. A piston (112) is slidably disposed in the chamber to define a sample cavity (110c)
and a buffer cavity (110p), and the cavities have variable volumes determined by movement of the
piston. A first flowline (54) is provided for communicating fluid obtained from a subsurface
formation through the sample module. A second flowline (114) connects the first flowline to the
sample cavity, and a third flowline (126) connects the first flowline to the buffer cavity for
communicating buffer fluid out of the buffer cavity. A first valve (118) capable of moving between a
closed position and an open position is disposed in the second flowline for communicating flow
of fluid from the first flowline to the sample cavity. When the first valve (118) is in the open position,
the sample cavity (110c) and the buffer cavity (110p) are in fluid communication with the first flowline (54) and
therefore have equivalent pressures.

Abstract: An analogue-to-digital sigma-delta modulator for converting analogue input
signals to digital output signals comprises a feedback path (1, 101, 201) for
producing analogue feedback signals that are a function of the digital output
signals (y, Y), an ' N '-stage (' N '≥2) integrator path (9 to 14, 109 to 114) for
integrating analogue difference signals that are a difference function of the input
signal and the analogue feedback signals, and a quantizer (3, 103) responsive to
the signals integrated by the integrator means (9 to 14, 109 to 114) for producing
the digital output signals (y, Y) at clock intervals. The feedback path includes 'N'
feedback stages (15 to 17, 115 to 117) for respective integrator stages (9 to 14,
109 to 114). 
     Each of the 'N' feedback stages (15 to 17, 115 to 117) comprises finite
impulse response ('FIR') filters (15 to 19, 115 to 117), each of the FIR filters being
of the same order 'M', where 'M' is at least two; at least the filter (15, 115) of the
feedback stage that feeds back to the first integrator stage is a low pass filter. 
     The integrator stages may be discrete-time integrators; the FIR filters reduce
their sensitivity to feedback voltage step changes that would cause non-linearities
due to slew-rate limitations. Alternatively, the integrator stages may be continuous-time
integrators; the FIR filters reduce their sensitivity to clock pulse jitters. In the
embodiment shown in Figure 11, the first integrator stage (109, 110) is a
continuous-time integrator stage, and the remainder of the integrator stages (11 to
14) are discrete-time integrator stages.

IPC: E04B2/74

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing
sections having a particular, novel shearing of a
sheet, preferably a metal sheet, that allows sections
which can be easily bent by hand to be provided in
order to manufacture curved structural elements
characterized in that they have a very reduced
segmentation of the continuous non-sheared surface and
that they can be stiffened without using weld
material. The section has "Y"-shaped shearing and is
provided with a certain pitch crosswise to the section
so that the upper vertexes of the "Y"-shape lie on the
bending line of the non-sheared side. When the section
is bent, the continuous non-sheared side is segmented
at the contact points of the vertexes of the "Y"-shape.
Therefore, under the same number of slotting,
the section of the present invention has a greater
segmentation, thus providing a more uniform bending.
In addition, the curved section can also be self-stiffened
because of the fastening of the bent and
squashed extension tabs to the adjacent tabs of the
sheared side only by punching.

Abstract: Manufacture of nanoparticles on the basis of methyl vinyl ether and maleic
acid for the administration of pharmaceuticals of an hydrophilic nature, in
particular analogs of puric and pyrimidinic bases. 
     The nanoparticles are obtained by desolvation with an hydroalcoholic
phase of a methyl vinyl ether and maleic acid copolymer solution in acetone. The
particles obtained are next treated with cross-linking agents (diamines or proteins)
for the purpose of prolonging their useful life and are, possibly, incubated with a
pharmaceutical which will be transported on the surface. The nanoparticles can
carry the pharmaceutical likewise encapsulated which would then be added
during the desolvation. In the case of the nanoparticle-ligand conjugates, the
nanoparticles previously obtained and containing inside the pharmaceutical to be
transported are incubated with the ligand or molecule which will contribute the
property of specifically recognising a particular receptor of the organism. 
     These pharmaceutical forms have as objective to improve the transport of
the pharmaceutical or biologically active molecule to its site of action and/or
absorption. This property improves the specificity and effectiveness of said
pharmaceuticals.
