Abstract: A liquid crystal device is constituted by a pair of substrates having mutually opposing electrodes thereon, and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the substrates so as to form a pixel comprising a pair of the opposing electrodes and the liquid crystal layer therebetween. The liquid crystal layer in a pixel is divided into a plurality of regions having mutually different liquid crystal layer thicknesses, and the pixel is constituted so as to show an applied voltage-transmittance characteristic having an improved linearity suited for gradational display. More specifically, for example, the liquid crystal layer in a pixel is provided with locally varying thicknesses by forming on a substrate pluralities of stripe-shaped projections and indentations at locally different indentation widths so that the projections have a smaller width in a region having a smaller indentation width than in a region having a larger indentation width. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sector servo, zone bit recording disk drive includes a sector architecture in which the recording head locates and identifies data sectors without using data ID fields, but instead using information obtained from electronic storage and from servo sectors which need not be adjacent to the data sectors. The tracks contain servo information and data, but not data sector ID information. The tracks in each zone are circumferentially divided into segments. Included in each segment is a number of data regions separated from one another by servo sectors. The data regions may contain partial data sectors and complete data sectors. The format information provided to identify and locate data sectors, including ones whose region locations are not adjacent to servo sectors, includes an entry for each region in the section. Each entry includes the lengths of the first and last data sections in the region, whether the sectors represented by those sections are split between two regions, the total number of data sectors in the region, and the sector number of the first data sector in the region. The information provided in the servo sectors consists of a servo sector number or other indicia which enables the disk drive to determine the position of the recording head and begin reading or writing immediately upon settling on-track and without incurring a latency penalty. <IMAGE>

Date Jun. 6, 1996A ray tracing method for construction an image of a notional scene from data concerning a plurality of objects in the scene and the illumination of the scene, involves allocating surfaces of objects in the scene into a plurality of subsets, projecting from a notional viewing position a plurality of straight line paths and storing data for all said paths, determining which, if any, of those straight line paths intersect any surface in a selected subset or a zone of illumination, and repeating that step for all the other subsets until all the paths have been tested for intersections against all surfaces in the scene. The method also determines, for each path, which intersection is nearest the viewing position and stores data on the co-ordinates for that intersection and on the surface of the object or zone of illumination at that intersection. The intensity in colour of light which will pass along the path through the notional viewing position from that intersection is then calculated and stored, and the stored intensity and/or colour is then used to produce a picture signal for a visual display. A plurality of paths are tested for intersections against a given subset of surfaces before the paths are considered in relation to other subsets, thereby reducing the number of times the subsets have to be called up from the database. The method can be conducted on apparatus which uses parallel ray processors.

Abstract: An attenuated phase shift mask comprises a first layer having a thickness to provide a transmission in the range of about 3 to 10% formed on a transparent substrate and a second layer comprising a transparent material having a thickness to provide a desired phase shift, formed on said first layer. For a phase shift of 180 DEG  and i-line wavelength (365 nm), where chromium is used as the first layer, then a thickness within the range of about 25 to 75 nm is employed; where silicon dioxide is used as the second layer, then a thickness of about 400 to 450 nm is employed. While the oxide may be dry-etched, an isotropic wet etch provides superior aerial images.

Abstract: The invention relates to anchorage assemblies and in particular to anchorage assemblies having a novel wedge arrangement, wedges for use with anchorage assemblies and an anchorage member. In order to improve wedge performance in an anchorage assembly, a wedge (21) is provided having both internally (24) and externally (25) relieved portions to give a nose area (26) which is tapered to a greater extent than the rest of the wedge (21). Under normal load conditions, the wedge (21) behaves like a short wedge having no nose relief and is highly efficient. However, under high load or load limit conditions, the nose portion (26) of the wedge (21) is arranged to deform plastically so that fretting of the stressing element (23) gripped by the wedge (21) does not occur. As well as the high performance wedge, an improved anchorage member for the anchorage assembly is provided, the anchorage member having a number of steps (34-74). The provision of steps (34-74) in the anchorage member reduces the tendency for anchorage members to be drawn into prestressed concrete structures and reduces the bursting forces within such structures. The combination of an anchorage assembly having the improved wedge and improved anchorage member is a particularly effective and advantageous one.

Abstract: A non-woven web of fibrous material is produced using a moving foraminous element in the practice of the foam process. A first foam slurry of air, water, fibers and a surfactant is generated and centrifugally pumped into contact with the moving foraminous element. Substantially fiber-free foam is withdrawn from the foraminous element while forming a non-woven web of fibrous material on the foraminous element, and at least a part of the substantially fiber-free foam is used in the generation of the first foam slurry. Recycling is also typically practiced using a centrifugal pump, and the centrifugal pumps are preferably degassing pumps which remove some of the gas from the foam. By practicing the invention it is possible to produce fibrous webs using the foam process that are more than two meters wide, and at a forming speed of more than about 100 m/min (e.g. about 200-500 m/min).

Abstract: A crystalline polymer resin, such as poly(ethylene terephthalate), is heated to melting. One or more blowing agents is selected wherein at least one of the blowing agents has a boiling point greater than the glass transition temperature for the resin and less than the forming temperature, such as the temperature of the mold used to form the useful article. The blowing agent(s) and resin are combined to create a mixture with a blowing agent concentration sufficient to produce a theoretical sheet foam density of less than 0.4 g/cm3. The mixture is cooled to a temperature approaching the freezing point of the mixture, and then extruded into a substantially uniform closed cell polymer foam sheet of density less than 0.4 g/cm3. The extruded sheet is then cooled by direct contact with a cooling surface at a surface temperature below the glass transition temperature such that the blowing agent(s) condenses and the sheet has a density of greater than 0.4 g/cm3 and a sheet crystallinity of less than 15%. An article is then formed from the cooled sheet by applying heat such that the condensed blowing agent(s) vaporizes and the article crystallizes at a density of less than 0.4 g/cm3 with a crystallinity of greater than 20%.
