Patent GB-0403365-D0 (GB)
Title: "Packaging for foodstuffs and a method of packaging same"
IPC: A23B9/18
Filed: 2004-02-16
Abstract: The method involves purging of the oxygen content from within the interior of a flexible-walled container by flushing it with an inert gas such as nitrogen. Ideally, the residual oxygen content should be less that 2%, or most preferably, less than 1%. The flushing step may be implemented before, during or after introduction of the foodstuff dependant upon whether the foodstuff is in solid or liquid form, or a mixture of both. After introducing the foodstuff and before sealing, the container is inflated with nitrogen gas and may optionally be subsequently squeezed to remove a selected volume of nitrogen gas. Where discrete pieces of a foodstuff have a tendency to agglomerate during packaging, transport and storage, a higher volume of nitrogen is retained within the container after sealing to counter this effect and ensure that the product is more appealing to the consumer.

Title: Method and system for dynamic analysis of complex systems
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2005-04-15
Abstract: Methods for performing a dynamic analysis of complex systems are described. The dynamic analysis of complex systems is performed by sub-structuring of the system into a plurality of sub-structures. The sub-structures and the interfaces between the sub-structures are modelled using a generalised eigenvector analysis of a discretised model of a full system or a subassembly thereof comprising at least two sub-structures. The sub-structures then are combined at the interfaces into a combined system. The combined system then is solved. Optionally, selected sub-structures may be reduced. Performing such a dynamic analysis allows studying characteristics such as e.g. vibration and/or acoustical effects in a computational efficient way. Such methods can be applied for optimising designs of such complex systems.

Title: Method and apparatus for identifying components of a network having high importance for network integrity
IPC: G16B5/00
Filed: 2003-10-29
Abstract: Initially network data (s4-1) defining a plurality of nodes and a plurality of links between the nodes is stored. The stored network data is then processed to identify (s4-2 - s 4-5) a set of nodes of importance for the structural integrity of the network defined by the stored network data. The set of nodes of importance may include: hub nodes in the network (s4-2); nodes in the network that are difficult to route around (s4-3); and nodes in the network involved in links between sub-networks of interconnected nodes which have more links to other nodes in the sub-network than other nodes in the rest of the network (s4-5). Second order nodes being nodes of the network associated with links to nodes in the identified set of nodes of importance for the structural integrity of the network are then identified (s4-6) and data identifying the second order nodes is output (s4-8).

Title: Communication system
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 1992-02-07
Abstract: A method of analysing a communication system to locate the source of a fault. The communication system comprises a signal carrying medium (9) coupled to a series of end station ports (2-6) which enable respective end stations (24) to transmit signals onto and receive signals from the medium and a controller (8) to control connection of end stations (24) to the medium via the ports (2-6). The method comprises disconnecting end stations (24) in series from the medium (9) in response to detection of a fault and then detecting whether the fault still exists. A fault analyzer (10) adapted to respond to the detection of a fault causes the controller (8) firstly to disconnect an end station (24) which has previously been characterised as the most likely source of a fault. The controller (8) may disconnect groups of end stations (24) and reconnect subgroups if no fault is present in the group which was not disconnected until the faulty end station is identified. <IMAGE>
