Abstract: The movement of a predetermined zone of a surface of a vibrating object is measured by separating a laser beam (12) having a predetermined coherence length into a probe beam (14) and a reference beam (15). The reference beam (15) is then delayed relative to the probe beam (14) by a predetermined time interval sufficient for the probe beam (14) to travel through a predetermined distance at least corresponding to the coherence length, before being combined with the probe beam (14) to form a combination beam (24). The combination beam is then subdivided into a plurality of substantially equal component beams each (25,26,27) of which is conducted along a separate path to a location spaced from the predetermined zone substantially by one-half of the distance traveled by light in the predetermined time interval between the above location and the predetermined zone. A predetermined portion of each component beam is reflected at the respective location back into the respective path, while the remainder of each component beam is directed to the predetermined zone (35) for return therefrom at least predominantly back toward the respective location and into the respective path with attendant coherent interference of the returned probe beam part with the reflected reference beam part of the same component beam. The return light beams (50) are demodulated to obtain an indication of the movement of the predetermined zone.

Abstract: A sequence of impulses is determined which eliminates unwanted dynamics of a dynamic system. This impulse sequence is convolved with an arbitrary command input to drive the dynamic system to an output with a minimum of unwanted dynamics. The input sequence is time optimal in that it constitutes the shortest possible command input that results in no unwanted dynamics of the system subject to robustness and implementation constraints. The preshaping technique is robust under system parameter uncertainty and may be applied to both open and closed loop systems.

Title: Self-propelled pit cleaner for agricultural stable
IPC: A01K1/01
Filed: 1991-08-21
Granted: 1993-04-21
Abstract: The cleaning of agricultural stables is to be carried out in a manner treating the floor carefully by means of one or more sliding plates (figure) mounted on a travelling frame (a). An electrical drive (d) attached to the travelling frame and having a current supply from outside the region of the animals makes it possible to travel over the predetermined runway. In semi-automatic or fully automatic operation, the pit cleaner runs under or through animal partitions (n) adapted to the cleaner. During the return also, it is to be possible, if the farmer so desires, to remove dung which has occurred in the meantime. The use of the self-propelled pit cleaner is intended to improve low-straw or strawless stable systems in conjunction with the appropriate floor design. Operating reliability is to be increased in comparison with existing installations. The travelling frame (a) of the pit cleaner will, as far as possible, not exceed a constructional height of ten to twenty centimetres. A low running speed of up to approximately three metres per minute will have no adverse effect on the behaviour of the animals. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a purification process for brine, impurities such as calcium, magnesium and/or sulphate are precipitated by the addition of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3). Following NaCl crystallisation by evaporation of the brine, a mother liquor is obtained which still contains among others sulphate, potassium and bromide ions. Further concentration of this motherliquor by evaporation results in the precipitation of both NaCl and Na2SO4 and a more strongly concentrated motherliquor with respect to both potassium and bromide remains. This concentrated motherliquor is drained off. Either the prcipitated naCl and Na2SO4 are dissolved in water or the Na2SO4 is dissolved in purified brine or crude brine and then returned to the brine purification process, thereby lowering both the potassium and bromide ion levels in the purified brine. As a consequence the contents of both potassium and bromide of the NaCl are reduced.

Abstract: The present invention defines a biological role for the following sequence of amino acids that is found in the nucleocapsid domain of the gag precursor polyproteins of all replication-competent retroviruses: -Cys-X-X-Cys-X-X-X-X-His-X-X-X-X-Cys-, wherein X represents variable amino acids. The invariant residues constitute part of a vital protein structure, at least one of which are found in all retroviruses and which are involved in the selection and packaging of genomic viral RNA into infectious virus particles. Disruption of this structure leads to the formation of virus-like particles which appear to be structurally normal, but which do not contain the normal complement of viral RNA. Therefore, their infectivity is drastically reduced or completely eliminated. The infectivity of any retrovirus, including human retroviruses, and more particularly human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), can be drastically reduced or completely eliminated by generating mutants that lack some or all of the invariant residues required to form the structure. In addition, any means of disrupting the functions of this array will in turn disrupt the viral life cycle. Thus, with the knowledge provided by this invention, chemotherapeutic reagents aimed toward this array may be devised.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the bleaching of chemical pulp, process which comprises one or several oxidation steps and one or several alkali treatment steps and in which the pulp is treated with an enzyme. The essential idea of the invention is that the pulp is treated with an enzyme in two or more different steps of the process, an oxidation and/or alkali treatment being most preferably carried out between the enzyme treatment steps. The oxidizing chemical used is most preferably oxygen, although peroxide and/or chlorine and/or chlorine dioxide can also be used in addition to or instead of it, and in the enzyme treatment steps, which preferably number 2-4, the same enzyme or alternatively two or more different enzymes may be used. By the enzyme treatment according to the invention, the amount of toxic organic compounds inthe bleaching effluent is decreased and at the same time the chemical oxygen consumption of the effluent is decreased.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process interface system (1), in which single-channel modules (D, A) designed on the basis of compact IC technique are housed in terminal block-like blocks of the same type as standard terminal blocks (6a-6d) for mounting rails (4). The single-channel modules (D, A) are designed in few different versions which are programmed during installation for their field of use as AI or AO interface unit and as DI or DO interface unit, respectively, as well as for their voltage range. Each interface unit communicates directly with the system computer (PC) via a serial bus (2) in the form of electrically conducting paths (5a, 5b, 5c) applied to the mounting rail (4) on which the respective interface module (D, A) has been mounted. The modules are supplied with power also through conducting paths (5a, 5b, 5c) on the surface of the mounting rail. Connection of transducers (3a, 3d) is made direct to the respective interface module. The terminal blocks (6a-6d) can be freely mixed with the interface modules (D, A) for, for example, voltage distribution to the transducers.
