Filed: 2006-11-03
Abstract: To compute, with a comparatively small processing load, a movement amount or a movement distance when a camera is mounted on a moving body such as an automobile or the like and moves freely, a movement amount computation system extracts matching inspection areas of a prescribed shape and size from frames captured by the camera, executes pattern matching between the frames, calculates positions of subject points that correspond to identical characteristic points in each frame, determines a displacement amount between the two calculated subject point positions, and uses the displacement amount as a movement amount between the frames. The movement amount computation system includes a steering angle detection unit that detects a steering angle of the moving body on which the camera is mounted.

Abstract: A nozzle box includes a torus (12), bridge (14) ring and nozzle ring (16) portions wherein steam flowing generally circumferentially in the torus portion is redirected for flow generally axially by the bridge ring portion. The steam exiting the bridge ring portion flows into nozzles formed by adjacent partitions (26) of the nozzle ring portion. Bridges in the bridge ring portion are tangentially leaned to exactly match the angle of inclination of the leading edges of the axially adjacent partitions at like circumferential locations. For strength purposes, there are two bridges (20) for each partition. Every other bridge axially registers with the leading edge of the axially downstream partition matching its angle while remaining bridges are equally spaced between the aligned bridges. In this manner, the steam flow is straightened by the bridges to match the angle of the leading edge of the nozzle partitions with consequent reduction of passage area loss.

Abstract: A vehicle-mounted detecting device and corresponding method for detecting a distance between the vehicle and an object outside the vehicle. The detecting device extracts edge intersection points from images of individual frames photographed by a camera. A set of edge intersection points for which the relative position in images does not change between frames is then specified as an observation point group; the movement of the specified observation point group in images is observed; and pitching by the vehicle is detected. Any two points with differing heights on an object present in an image are extracted as feature points, and after the effect of pitching is eliminated from the feature points, the position of a vanishing line in the image is calculated based on the ratio of the velocities of the feature points in images after the length between the two feature points and the effects of pitching are eliminated.

Abstract: The method involves isolating a spatial domain of non-zero volume containing each face of grid cells of a reservoir model, and extracting cells of a geological model contained in the domain to have a local model. Boundary conditions of the local model are determined relative to each face of the cells and are perturbed in three spatial directions to construct three sets of boundary conditions. Steady, single-phase flow simulations are carried out according to the conditions on each local model. Flow rate and pressure gradient values associated with each cell of the domain are calculated.

Abstract: A telecommunications network is provided comprising a plurality of interconnected communications nodes, each of the communications nodes being connected to at least one of the other communications nodes in the telecommunications network via a communications channel. The communications nodes are arranged to communicate user data to and/or from the other communications nodes to which the communications nodes are connected in accordance with current operating communications parameters. Each of the communications nodes is adapted to communicate status report data to a policy control server, the status report data including an indication of the current operating communications parameters of the communications node and/or the communications channel via which the communications node. The policy control server is operable to determine, from the status report data, a current communications capability of the communications nodes , to identify a change in the operating parameters of one or more of the communications nodes or the communications channels, which could improve the performance of the telecommunications network and to communicate control data to the one or more communications nodes, the change control data indicating the identified change in the operating parameters. The policy control server can provide an improved allocation of network resources and network routing, because the policy control server is provided with a more global view of the telecommunications network. In one mode of operation the policy control server can re-configure the communications nodes and communications channels as a result of a failure of one or more of the nodes or channels.
