Abstract: A stress or magnetic field sensor comprises a generally elongate magnetically soft amorphous or nanocrystalline electrically resistive element and biasing means for applying to the element a bias magnetic field of which the component directed along the length of the sensor has an amplitude variation pattern along the element. A periodically varying pattern has the effect of reducing the sensitivity of a stress sensor to external ambient fields (figure 3 shows that with a sawtooth bias field the sensitive portions <u>a</u> of a sensor move to positions <u>b</u> in the presence of an ambient field, but their number remains the same). A ramped bias field enables the position of the sensitive region of the sensor to be controlled, for measuring local stress, or for mapping an external magnetic field. Control of the regions where the sensor is active may include selective conductive coating of portions of its length. Potential uses of the stress sensor include a pressure sensor, embedment in moving parts (using rf communication) such as vehicle tyres, aircraft wings or machine parts, and in structures such as bridges where stray magnetic fields are a problem.

Abstract: Switch arrays such as keyboards are described. The switch arrays may include an array of dome spring elements. Each dome spring element may define a chamber, and a plurality of channels may interconnect the chambers of the dome spring elements such that each chamber of each dome spring element is in fluid communication with the chamber of at least one of the other dome spring elements. The array of dome spring elements may provide a hermetic seal to the bottom side of individual dome spring elements to avoid the sticky key phenomenon.

Abstract: A security system (100) purposely damages at least a portion of content material, using a damaging process that is easily reversible, until a verification of authorization is determined. While the authorization to access the content material is in an unverified state, an undamaged version is provided for immediate rendering, but any stored versions of the content material is stored in the damaged state. When the authorization is verified, the damaging process ceases, and the stored damaged version is repaired, thereby allowing unimpeded subsequent access to the authorized content material. If sufficient evidence is obtained to warrant a determination that the content material is unauthorized, the access to the material is terminated, and any stored content material remains in the damaged state, thereby precluding subsequent access to the unauthorized content material.

Abstract: A multicolumn selectivity inversion generator has been developed in which bismuth-213 is selectively extracted from an HCl solution of the actinium-225 parent (and its radiogenic descendents) by a primary separation column containing a separation medium containing a neutral oxygenated organophosphorus extractant. After rinsing with dilute HCl, the bismuth-213 is stripped with a buffered NaCl solution. The stripped solution is passed through a cation-exchange resin guard column that retains the actinium-225 and radium-225 contaminants while the bismuth-213 elutes. This generator method minimizes the unpredictable effects of radiation damage to the support material and permits the reliable production of bismuth-213 of high chemical and radionuclidic purity.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système pour extraire un soluté à partir d'un matériau solide, tel que de l'huile à partir de denrées alimentaires contenant de l'huile. Ce système met en oeuvre un filtre à membrane sensiblement tubulaire pour séparer une masse du milieu d'extraction et les denrées alimentaires en un miscella et des denrées alimentaires à contenu en huile réduit. Dans un procédé discontinu ou continu, après chaque étape d'extraction, la masse de la cuve d'extraction est transportée vers un filtre à membrane qui possède des pores le long de ses parois cylindriques calibrés de façon à permettre à un miscella de passer en tant que perméat, tout en faisant en sorte que les denrées alimentaires à contenu en huile réduit soient transportées axialement le long des tuyaux et à l'extérieur de ses extrémités en tant que rétentat. Dans un procédé continu, des cellules d'extraction ou étapes, consistant en une cuve d'extraction, une pompe, et un filtre à membrane, sont utilisées dans des étapes séquentielles, de préférence en mettant en oeuvre un miscella de l'étape successive en tant que milieu d'extraction. Dans un procédé continu, un réservoir de stockage de miscella peut être utilisé pour stocker le miscella de l'étape finale destiné à être utilisé pour le lot suivant. Dans tous les cas, seul le miscella possédant le contenu en huile le plus élevé, en d'autres termes le miscella de la première étape, est transporté vers un séparateur pour le retrait de l'huile. L'utilisation de ce procédé ou de ce système est particulièrement intéressante pour extraire l'huile à partir de denrées alimentaires qui sont sous forme de poudres, qui possèdent un contenu en huile élevé, ou qui sont sensibles à la chaleur.
