Abstract: A method and apparatus for conditioning and monitoring a planarizing medium used for planarizing a microelectronic substrate. In one embodiment, the apparatus can include a conditioning body having a conditioning surface that engages a planarizing surface of the planarizing medium and is movable relative to the planarizing medium. A force sensor is coupled to the conditioning body to detect a frictional force imparted to the conditioning body by the planarizing medium when the conditioning body and the planarizing medium are moved relative to each other. The apparatus can further include a feedback device that controls the motion, position, or force between the conditioning body and the planarizing medium to control the conditioning of the planarizing medium.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un générateur de gaz pour coussins de sécurité gonflables amélioré du point de vue de la sécurité et de la fiabilité. Même lorsqu'un agent (9a) de génération de gaz brûle dans une première chambre (5a) de combustion, on évite la combustion d'un agent (9b) de génération de gaz du fait qu'une fine plaque métallique (11) obture l'orifice (10) de communication conduisant à une seconde chambre (5b) de combustion. L'allumeur (1112) est pourvu d'un élément cupuliforme (1190) percé d'un trou (1191), et les flammes produites au moment de la mise à feu forment un flux droit étroit en direction d'une charge (1116) de transfert. Ainsi, la charge (1116) de transfert brûle complètement, et produit, de façon fiable, suffisamment de flammes pour entraîner la combustion complète d'un agent (1109) de génération de gaz. Une chambre (2008) contenant un dispositif d'allumage renferme l'allumeur et la charge de transfert, et la densité de remplissage de la charge (2016a) de transfert à l'intérieur d'une chambre (2015a) contenant la charge de transfert est comprise entre 0,1 et 5 g/cm3. Un orifice (3010) de communication entre la première et la seconde chambre (3005a, 3005b) est fermé par un ruban d'étanchéité (3011) constitué de deux couches prenant en sandwich une couche d'adhésif. Après le déclenchement, le ruban (3011) d'étanchéité n'éclate pas sous l'effet de l'augmentation de la pression interne régnant dans la première chambre (3005a) de combustion, mais se décolle facilement sous l'effet de l'augmentation de la pression interne régnant dans la seconde chambre (3005b) de combustion.

Abstract: The invention concerns an efficient strategy for sharing link bandwidth in a mixed rigid-elastic traffic environment, as well as a strategy for sharing bandwidth among elastic traffic flows. The idea according to the invention is to share the link bandwidth among rigid and elastic traffic by dividing the link bandwidth into a first common part (C_COM) for elastic as well as rigid traffic and a second part (C_ELA) dedicated for elastic traffic. Subsequently, one or more admission control parameters (N_ELA) for the elastic traffic are determined in order to restrict the number of elastic traffic flows simultaneously present on the link. In particular, by formulating a call-level model for elastic traffic and determining a maximum number (N_ELA) of admissible elastic traffic flows based on call-level constraints for the elastic traffic related to throughput and/or blocking, the so-called throughput-to-blocking trade-off for the elastic traffic can be fully considered.

Abstract: A flexible, armoured pipe has an impermeable inner liner ( 3 ), which is surrounded by at least two reinforcement layers ( 5, 6, 7, 8 ). Between the reinforcement layers an impermeable membrane ( 10 ) is provided, which ensures that fluids do not permeate into the inner reinforcement layers ( 5, 6 ) from the pipe's outer reinforcement layers ( 7, 8 ). The outer layers are not isolated from influence from the surrounding environment. Moreover, the outer layers (traction reinforcement layers) are protected against the damaging effect of gases, which are diffused out through the flexible pipe. On the outside of the outer traction reinforcement layers ( 7, 8 ) a layer ( 11 ) can be applied, which is easily permeated by the surroundings, and which protects the traction reinforcement layer against mechanical influences. In this way it is ensured that the pressure reinforcement can absorb forces both from inner as well as outer pressure.

Abstract: An automated sample-on-solid-support processing system includes a treatment solution supply subsystem which feeds solvent to a dispenser to dispense a measured amount of treatment solution to each well of a multi-well plate. The dispenser measures the solution within a fill container having a plurality of reservoir wells corresponding to the number of wells in the multi-well plate. The fill container is contained within a reservoir chamber that is filled with an excess of solution. Each reservoir well is surrounded by a plurality of bores which drains excess solution from the top of the fill container so that a precise amount of solution is left in the reservoir wells when solution is drained out of the reservoir chamber. Gas pressure is introduced into the reservoir chamber to force the solution out of the reservoir well through a bundle of tubes, with one tube per well, and into the wells of the multi-well plate.

Abstract: In a liquid crystal device a substrate (1) favors at least two stable or metastable differently directed liquid crystal alignments, and switching means for causing the liquid crystal material to switch between the alignments includes means arranged for optically irradiating said device. The latter may provide linearly polarized light (3) for inducing a torque on the liquid crystal to determine the alignment direction, and may optionally cooperate with a second energy supplying means such as an electric field (V) for assisting and switching. Alternatively, the alignment of the liquid crystal may be switched by a second energy supplying means such as an electric field, the light serving to produce heat to aid the switching. Either or both energy sources may be applied locally for switching of selected areas or pixels. Energy levels at the bistable substrate may be adjusted by the use of an oligomeric additive (slippery surface). As shown, the alignment at the surface of an opposed substrate (2) optionally follows the alignment at substrate (1).

Abstract: The description relates to a dietetic food for breaking down fats, the use of which reduces the hungry feeling during the dieting period. This is achieved due to the fact that the dietetic food contains MCT. The class of compounds known under the name MCT ("medium-chain triglycerides") comprises triglycerides of fatty acids of medium chain length wherein fatty acids of medium chain length means in particular C8-C12 fatty acids. MCT as such is a known substance, e.g. as Delios V and Delios C. It is of oily consistency. What is new is the use of this substance as dietetic food for regulating the fat metabolism, supplemented by L carnitine, in particular in the form of L carnitine-tartrate which serves as transport protein in order to transport long chain fats from body stores into the mitocondria for burning, whereby L carnitine can help to speed up the breaking down of fats, and supplemented by the co-enzyme Q10 which is lipophile and takes part in the reactions of the fatty acids in the field of the energy-supplying cell reactions, and possibly further supplemented by Omega3 fatty acids. In this function it can even more speed up an enhanced burning of fats.
