Abstract: PCT No. PCT/CH95/00080 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 19, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 19, 1996 PCT Filed Apr. 13, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/29308 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 2, 1995A conical anchoring system to anchor one or more loaded, stressed or pre-stressed tension elements (9) comprising a conical anchoring casing and an anchor body (7) fitting into the casing and retaining the tension element(s). The boundary surface between the anchor body and the casing wall is substantially designed to allow free sliding. To prevent the tension elements from being torn out of the anchor body or rupturing the anchor body itself, the rigidity of the gradient material forming the anchor body increases from the site of entry of the tension element at the cone, that is from the front zone, to the rear part of the anchor cone. Substantially improved shear distribution along the surface of the tension element(s) is achieved thereby over the case of substantially uniform rigidity of the anchor body.

Abstract: A DC-biased axial magnetic bearing includes a rotating member (50) (or shaft) having a radially extending tab (or support) (52) located between a pair of teeth (62, 64) of a C-shaped control member (60). A permanent magnet (68) provides a DC magnetic field (82) which travels through an overhanging arm (70) and provides a DC bias attractive force between a surface (72) of the arm (70) and an upper surface (74) of the shaft (50) which levitates the shaft (50) such that the tab (52) is equally spaced between the surfaces (62, 64). Coils are wrapped circumferentially around the shaft (50) within the C-shaped control member (60) and current through the coils provides electromagnetic trim control of the position of the tab (52) between the surfaces (62, 64) in response to changes in axial position of the shaft (50) indicated by position sensors (96). The bearing may also be used in horizontal applications, e.g., in an engine.

Abstract: A control method for operating aqueous microorganism growth processes is disclosed which can maintain viable growth conditions for many types of microorganisms which have heretofore not been easily reproduced in commercially valuable quantities. The primary control parameters are the degree of turbulence in the aqueous growth medium and the scale of the apparatus relative to the scale of the turbulent eddies in vessels which are partially filled with the aqueous medium directly affect conditions which are required for optimum growth: light exposure, nutrient supply, sedimentation rate, bulk temperature, gas exchange rate and cell integrity. These control elements can be cast in terms of the Reynolds number (NRe) and controlled dimensions of the apparatus (LK) in relationship to the scales of turbulent eddies to define the dissipation  lambda K as LK/L. Alternatively, these can be recognized to show that the delivery of nutrients to the microorganism mass is dependent upon the dissipation rate  epsilon  in the fluid, which allows a definition of Lk to be quantified. The broadest ranges generally useful in this invention are NRe=2000 to 106, preferably 4000 to 250,000; apparatus scale relative to eddy scale is such that the level of fluid in the reaction chamber relative to eddy scale is 10-1:1 preferably 10-1.2:1; and turbulent energy dissipation rate  epsilon  between 10-3 and 10 W/kg. The invention is particularly useful in controlling growth processes in which the microorganisms are unicellular algae, phytoplankton, issues of vascular plants, tissues of macroalgae, and the like.

Abstract: A semiconductor memory which is improved in reliability by preventing the lowering of capacitance and defective insulation, especially, electrode separation caused by the formation of the passivation film (insulating film) of a capacitor using a high ferroelectric material by plasma processing at a relatively low temperature and a method for manufacturing the memory. The semiconductor memory has an integrated capacitor composed of a capacitor structure constituted of an upper electrode (105), a lower electrode (102), and a high ferroelectric oxide thin film (103) which is held between electrodes (105 and 102) and serves as a capacitor insulating film and an insulating protective film (106) which covers the capacitor structure and is formed by plasma processing. An oxygen introducing layer (104) is further formed on the surface of the thin film (103) constituting the capacitor insulating film. In the manufacturing process of the memory, for example, the oxygen introducing layer (104) is formed on the surface of the high ferroelectric material (103) by introducing oxygen to the boundary between the electrode (105) and the material (103) by conducting heat treatment in an oxygen atmosphere before the protective insulating film (SiO2 passivation film) (106) is formed by plasma processing after the formation of the electrode (105). Therefore, lowering of capacitance, defective insulation, and especially, electrode separation, which are caused by the formation of the passivation film (insulating film), can be prevented. In addition, the occurrence of defective insulation can be reduced by suppressing the lowering of the capacitance when an alternating electric field is impressed. When a ferroelectric material is used as the dielectric film, moreover, such an effect as an increase in residual polarization, a decrease in coercive voltage, etc., can be obtained.
