Abstract: A behavior selection control system (100) includes: a plurality of element behaviors for outputting a behavior when selected; a behavior value calculation section (120) for calculating a behavior value AL of each element behavior by referencing a database according to information from an inner state management section (91) and an outer stimulus recognition section (80); and a behavior selection section (130) for selecting the element behavior having the largest behavior value AL as a behavior to be performed. Each behavior is correlated to a predetermined inner state and an outer stimulus. The behavior value calculation section (120) calculates the behavior value AL for each behavior according to a desired value for the behavior corresponding to the inner state input and an expected satisfaction degree change based on the expected inner state change expected to change by the outer stimulus which has been input.

Abstract: A printed circuit board component includes a housing carrying a peg that engages a printed circuit board hole. This peg has a radially projecting detent lug extending beyond the plug outer periphery. The lug is located and formed on the peg so the peg outer periphery is smaller in the area of the lug than the diameter of the hole. The outer periphery of the section of the peg projecting into the hole is such that, between the outer periphery of this section and the hole inner wall, a space having a capillarity for solder is formed over a portion of the outer periphery. During soldering, solder on the printed circuit board surface enters and fills the space by capillary action.

Abstract: If the exothermic activity of the catalyst exceeds a safety threshold value for the turbocompressor during application of a second, higher temperature regeneration strategy, the fuel feed is controlled to reduce it progressively; if it is above the threshold after a first period the feed switches to a first strategy and if it is still above the threshold after a second period the regeneration is stopped. A system for helping the regeneration of means of depollution (1) associated with an oxidation catalyst (2) and integrated into the exhaust pipe (3) of a vehicle's Diesel engine (4). The engine is connected to a common fuel feed injecting fuel into all the cylinders, in the manner of a post-injection. At least two regeneration strategies are put into operation by isocouple at a first and second level (10, 11) depending on the different engine operating control parameters to obtain different heat levels in the exhaust pipe. The heat level corresponding to the second level strategy (10) is greater than that of the first level strategy (11). The fuel feed is designed to operate two successive post-injections. During regulation, the fuel feed is designed to progressively reduce the flow of fuel in the second injection using a correction factor between 0 and 1 determined from the gap between the exothermic level (NT) and the safety threshold value (seuil-secu) by a non-linear gain PI regulator. The means of recording the exothermic level are at least one temperature detector (9). The threshold safety value can be calibrated. The means of depollution include a particle filter and/or NOx trap and/or SOx trap and/or oxidation catalyst. The fuel includes an additive designed to be deposited onto the means of depollution with the particles with which it is mixed to aid regeneration, or an additive which forms a NOx trap.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the process of the grafting of monomers onto polyolefins in the presence of organic peroxides, whereby the monomer(s) and organic peroxide have been absorbed into a carrier polymer that, under the grafting conditions, undergoes chain scission in preference to cross-linking in the presence of organic peroxides. The described grafting process allows to obtain an impact-modified graft-polyolefins useful as adhesives to polar polymers, metals, epoxy resins, cellulosic substrates and other polyolefins. Moreover, the described grafting process allows to obtain impact-modified, grafted polyolefin compounds with improved extrudability, heat stability and reduced gels or imperfections.
