Abstract: L'invention concerne de façon générale la cryopréservation et un procédé destiné à prévenir les accidents causés par réfrigération et réchauffement des tissus et destiné à réduire la toxicité des solutions de vitrification. Ce procédé permet de réaliser la réduction ou l'élimination d'accidents par augmentation de la tonicité du milieu supérieur à l'isotonie avant réfrigération. Ce procédé a été développé dans le but de simuler sans congélation, les événements ayant lieu durant la congélation de cellules vivantes et/ou de tissus. Un autre avantage du procédé est que, à partir du moment ou le milieu de cryopréservation est hypertonique, il peut être dilué à un degré plus extrême en une seule étape une fois le système réchauffé, sans engendrer le degré de gonflement des cellules qu'engendrerait le même facteur de dilution lors de la dilution d'un milieu de cryopréservation isotonique.

Abstract: The present invention is a technique to minimize crosstalk in multilayer IC packages. According to one or more embodiments of the present invention, signal routing layers are separated by planes for power and ground. Signal trace routing on the routing layers follows either horizontal, vertical or diagonal directions for obtaining high routing densities in the package as is the present design practice. The power and ground planes in one embodiment of the present invention are constructed as a mesh having groups of colinear perforations. The groups are oriented at an arbitrary angle that is chosen to minimize the crossings of groups of signals over mesh openings. It is guaranteed that the number of mesh openings that any given set of three traces encounters is reduced by at least a factor of two. Thus the present invention reduces crosstalk in the package by approximately 50%.

Abstract: A diesel engine particulate filter (DPF) (1) comprising
a case cylinder (2) with a filter space (26) formed by the inner
retention cylinder (9) and outer retention cylinder (11) which
traverse the radial symmetry of the case cylinder (2). In filter
space (26), the low temperature exothermic catalyst granules
group (30) component of precious metals, such as platinum, coexist
with a mixture of medium temperature exothermic catalyst carried
by granules group(29) filter of foaming stone group (29a) made
of base metals, such as nickel and cobalt. Exhaust flow travels
from the inner space (24) of the inner side retention cylinder
(9) to the filter space (26) where particulate matter (PM) is
trapped. PM burned by the medium temperature exothermic catalyst
functions by the rise in exhaust temperature obtained from the
low temperature exothermic catalyst where hydrocarbon (HC) is
burned. As a result, a DPF (1) that burns PM even when the exhaust
temperature is low can be realized, without using an electric
heater.

Abstract: In the disclosed flexible buffer transport system for staging accumulated
documents for transfer to a synchronous downstream transport, control of
movement of accumulations in the buffer is independent of the length of the
documents. The system includes a plurality of roller nips N in series. The roller
nips are spaced a uniform distance apart. Each of the roller nips is driven by an
independently controllable motor (M) in communication with a controller (100).
Position sensors (S) also communicate with the controller. The sensors sense
positions of lead and trail edges of accumulations of documents within the buffer
transport system. For each sampling period in the operating cycle and for each
roller nip, the controller determines motion control. First, the controller determines
which nips should be slaved together based on which are needed to control a
particular accumulation of documents under its control. The motion of the roller
nips are also controlled in accordance with a predetermined algorithm to bring a
lead edge of an accumulation within a predetermined gap distance from a trail
edge of a downstream accumulation

Abstract: A circuit configuration for introducing bias in balanced lines capable of high
frequency operation comprises top (30H) and bottom layers (30E) formed on a
semiconductor substrate (30). The circuit includes two balanced metallized lines
(33,32) positioned on the substrate (30). Each metallized line has a serpentine line
(34,35,36,37) configuration connected thereto. The space between the lines is a
virtual ground (31). The serpentine line configurations are congruent with elements on
the substrate layers (30H,30E) to provide a completed circuit. The elements are
coupled to a central metallic area (39), which in turn is coupled to a bias line (38)
through an open-line stub (50), which extends beyond the virtual ground (31) and
which provides equal capacitive coupling to the balanced lines (33,32). In this
manner, the balanced line configuration includes capacitors and inductors which are
symmetrically distributed and which provide resonance at the designed operating
frequency. The bias line (38) thus formed is RF grounded due to the virtual ground
(31) and is disconnected from the actual balanced lines (33,32).
