Abstract: Est décrit un article thermosensible monométallique ne nécessitant pas de liaison de métaux disemblables comme dans un bimétal. L'article thermosensible se compose d'un alliage ou d'un métal, et présente au moins deux parties. Les deux parties sont caractérisées par différents coefficients de dilatation thermique sur une plage donnée de températures, la différence étant suffisamment grande pour avoir comme résultat la déflection de l'article lorsqu'on le chauffe ou qu'on le refroidit. Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'article, l'alliage ou le métal est présent dans une première phase dans une partie de l'article, dans une seconde phaase dans l'autre partie. Le procédé d'obtention de l'arrangement à double phase consiste à soumettre une partie d'une forme intermédiaire à un traitement à froid, une réduction à froid, une décarburation, ou une combinaison de ces derniers, selon la matière utilisée. Un tube cathodique employant l'article thermosensible comme dispositif de compensation de température est également décrit.

Abstract: In a metallic vapor condenser for use in recovering, in the form of liquid metal, metallic vapor of a metal having a medium boiling point, the liquid metal of the molten metal is sent from a splash chamber(11) to be circulated through a skimming sump (12), a cooling sump (13), and a casting bath (14) to the splash chamber (11). The liquid metal is always refreshed by circulation in the casting bath (14) to avoid solidification of the metal. A subsidiary chamber (15) may be coupled to the splash chamber (11) to reserve the liquid metal to decrease dust and dross floating on the liquid metal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel and useful cosmids for cloning and expressing the isolated DNA gene cluster which directs the synthesis of tetracycline and chlortetracycline, in a heterologous host such as Streptomyces lividans. The claimed plasmids (cosmids) are isolated by screening a cosmid library, constructed in Escherichia coli, for the expression of tetracycline resistance in S. lividans. Plasmids LP<2>127 and LP<2>128 are recovered from such tetracycline-resistant S. lividans isolates shown by HPLC analysis of agar and broth fermentations to direct the synthesis of tetracycline and chlortetracycline.

Abstract: In a tone-in-band (TIB) single-sideband-modulated communication system used to communicate digital data:-   a) In order to compensate for variations due, eg, to doppler shift of the pilot tone in the received signal, during the sweep of the frequency of a local oscillator used to tune the receiver, the output of a narrow band filter is monitored for the presence of the expected pilot tone. When the pilot tone appears to be present, the sweep is interrupted and the error rate of the demodulated digital signal is tested, the sweep being resumed if an excessive error rate is encountered. b) In order to counter misreception due to co-channel interference, the pilot tone is offset by a small but detectable amount from that used in a co-channel transmission in preparing the TIB transmission either by using a different frequency split-point or by producing the signal in a slightly different part of the channel.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A high speed bus structure comprises an active bus wherein a number of logic functions which control the operation of the bus are removed from the modules (40) and centrally incorporated into the bus. The amount of bus functionality provided by the modules (40) is minimized, decreasing the complexity and computational overhead of the modules (40) and traffic on the bus that are attributable to supporting the functionality of the bus. The number of bussed signal lines (10) is minimized by eliminating the bused lines relevant to the centralized bus functions and substituting dedicated signal lines (30) to connect the modules (40) inserted into the bus and the bus components (20) providing the centralized logic functions. Thus certain states or commands which were separate commands are incorporated into the basic bus commands or communicated through the dedicated signal lines (30) which connect the centralized bus components (20) and the modules (40).

Abstract: Logical hybrid ring arrangements are disclosed which can withstand a cut communication path or a failed node. A logical ring is formed by a cascade of (i) physical hybrid ring segments (301-304), each composed of a pair of unidirectional communication paths (e.g., 3011 and 3012) propagating multiplexed subchannels and interposed add-drop multiplexer nodes (311-319), and (ii) cross-connect nodes (320, 330) terminating the segments. Each cross-connect node routes an incoming subchannel from one segment to an outgoing subchannel on another segment. Each segment may operate at a different multiplexed signal rate, so a logical ring can be composed of segments operating at different rates. Moreover, subchannels on an incoming segment may be allocated to a plurality of outgoing segments, thereby configuring multiple logical rings which may serve to balance communication traffic over the logical rings.

Abstract: The catalytic activity of a conventional DeNOx catalyst which is used to decrease the nitrogen oxides in flue gas sharply decreases with falling operating temperature, so that at operating temperatures below 250@C, a relatively large catalyst volume is required to achieve a predetermined degree of reduction of NOx. To increase the catalytic activity of a DeNOx catalyst in the low temperature range, according to the invention it is provided that on the catalyst (8) surface facing the flue gas, a layer (52) of particularly high adsorption capacity for ammonia and nitrogen oxides is provided. As a result, the diffusion of the ammonia and the nitrogen oxides from the gas phase to the surface and into the pores of the DeNOx catalyst is improved, which leads to an increased catalytic conversion of ammonia and nitrogen oxides on the catalytically active centres of the DeNOx catalyst. The DeNOx catalyst according to the invention can be used in principle in any plant for decreasing the nitrogen oxides in flue gas, in particular in the low temperature range. <IMAGE>
