Abstract: On the sheet music changes in the tempo of playing are indicated by a background to the music staves which is of a graduated colour or intensity, e.g. with one colour to indicate a quickening and another a slowing down of the tempo. An increase in the intensity of the colour, for example, shows the player how quickly to increase or reduce the tempo of playing. Other symbols in the form of connecting curves between notes or background colours to individual notes can be used to indicate the rate at which notes are to be played, or the length of pauses between notes. The colours, their intensity and the shapes of symbols are selected so that they do not distract attention from the music.

Abstract: An improved laser diode assembly includes a laser diode unit which is mounted directly on a compact thermoelectric cooler, which is mounted on a heat sink. A thermally insulating gasket, mounted around the thermoelectric cooler, seals the thermoelectric cooler from the ambient environment, thereby preventing condensation from forming on the cold face of the thermoelectric cooler. A bushing concentrically positions the laser diode unit in the proper optical alignment with respect to the optical assembly, while thermally and electrically insulating the laser diode. A thermally conductive gasket, mounted around the circumference of the laser diode window, returns heat from the heat sink to the window to prevent condensation from forming on the window. The laser diode is the only component cooled by the thermoelectric cooler. Since a portion of the heat transferred by the thermoelectric cooler is utilized to warm the laser diode window, a separate heating element is not required. This increases the overall efficiency of the laser diode assembly.

Abstract: A power control apparatus for an electrosurgical generator is used for controlling output power from the generator to the tissue or bodily fluids of a patient. The control apparatus rapidly determines the range of impedance of the load on the electrosurgical generator and adjusts the output power accordingly. Output current and output voltage from the electrosurgical generator are monitored and sent to a microprocessor. The microprocessor runs an algorithm that determines the impedance range of the load on the generator. The algorithm uses computational techniques, such as comparisons and bit shifting, that avoid long division and other time-consuming operations. The microprocessor can then adjust a high voltage power supply that effects the radio frequency amplifier stage. A method for controlling the power of the electrosurgical generator, including steps in the algorithm, is also disclosed.

Abstract: A pivotal shaft (130) is provided along the Z-axis
on a semiconductor substrate (100), whose upper surface
extends along the XY-plane, to fit a rotor (200) consisting
of dielectric material. The rotor is supported by the
pivotal shaft so that it can be inclined and can be
rotated. The peripheral portion of the rotor constitutes
weight bodies (211, 212), and stators (111, 115) consisting
of conductive material are disposed at the periphery thereof.
When a.c. voltages of predetermined period are delivered to
the stators, the rotor is rotated while floating in accordance
with the principle of the induction motor. When angular
velocity ωx about the X-axis is applied to the substrate
100, Corioli's force Fcz in the Z-axis positive direction
is applied to the weight body (211) passing through the
X-axis with velocity component in the Y-axis positive
direction so that it becomes away from the substrate.
Corioli's force -Fcz in the Z-axis negative direction is
applied to the weight body (212) passing through the X-axis
with velocity component in the Y-axis negative direction so
that it becomes close the substrate. Capacitance elements
C1, C2 are formed by fixed electrodes (141AB, 142AB) on the
substrate and movement electrodes (231, 232) on the rotor.
Difference between electrostatic capacitance values of both
the capacitance elements is obtained to detect magnitude of
applied Corioli's force. The magnitude of the detected
Corioli's force is outputted as a value of angular velocity
ωx about the X-axis. Even under the environment where
acceleration is applied, the acceleration component is
canceled by obtaining difference.

Abstract: The molecular weight of NYLON 11 TM  (a polyamide made from aminoundecanoic acid) has been found to be a reliable indicator of the mechanical properties and remaining useful life of parts made therefrom. By periodically monitoring the molecular weight, and comparing the measured molecular weight to a standard curve or table, the expected useful life remaining, rate of deterioration, time of part replacement, and mechanical properties of a part can be determined. The molecular weight may advantageously be determined using witness coupons placed in close proximity to the part such that they are exposed to the same processing and environmental conditions as the part. These witness coupons can advantageously be retrieved at the required time period using a spooled piece of pipe or the like. Alternatively, the molecular weight may advantageously be determined from core samples taken from the part being monitored, during use in the field, on a periodic basis. In addition, the molecular weight might also be inferred from a sample held in a laboratory which is exposed to substantially the same environmental conditions as the part. The molecular weight measurements can be made using standard techniques and equipment such as a viscometer, gel permeation equipment, or light scattering equipments.
