Abstract: According to the on-line process of the invention, haemodialysis solution produced or processed by the dialysis apparatus (1) is removed at the blood side from the dialyser (8) and pumped through the blood tube lines (10, 11), either by means of the blood pump (14) belonging to the apparatus or by the pump included in the haemodialysis solution circulation, where appropriate using the machine-specific filling program. This dispenses with the need to clean and fill the extracorporeal blood circulation with a saline solution, which has hitherto incurred considerable costs.

Abstract: The monitoring system uses intelligent agents which are installed on each server. These agents execute, after formulation of client requests, a control state for each server by measuring and storing the parameters indicating the state and the condition of the server at a given instant. The data is collected automatically as a function of the domains examined and processed by the server in a systematic manner. The data is presented in the form of presentation reports contained in constructed pages evolving in a dynamic manner. The clients navigator (search engine) accesses these dynamic pages presenting the collected and processed pages responding to the request. The method use the following modules: - a page constructor module; - a semantic knowledge module; - a system data construction module; - a generic tool module which helps in construction of high level hyper-text language pages.

Abstract: An electrically powered vehicle transportation system utilizes a guideway with parallel enclosed rails. Each enclosed rail has an electrical bus bar for supplying power to vehicles on the guideway. The guideway will accommodate dual-mode vehicles that are capable of usage on conventional streets as well as on the guideway. The guideway also accommodates conventional vehicles and ferries that operate only on the guideway. The enclosed rails have a downward facing slot on an inner wall. The vehicle axles are offset, with a portion extending through each slot. The dual-mode vehicle has a body with axles that are extensible. The axles move from a retracted position, with the wheels recessed within the wheel wells, to an extended position. In the extended position, the wheels locate within the enclosed rails. Conventional vehicles and freight are carried on ferries that move along the guideways.

Abstract: A simulator for testing the performance accuracy or calibrating a collision avoidance radar system. The simulator includes circuitry for receiving a signal from the collision avoidance radar system and for generating a signal tracking the frequency of the radar system. Circuitry is further included in the simulator utilizing the tracking signal to generate a signal offset in frequency from the collision avoidance radar system output signal and to transmit the offset signal to the collision avoidance radar. The offset is controlled so that the collision avoidance radar should indicate an object is located a distance (D) away. Circuitry is further included in the simulator so that the offset has a first value when the radar system output is increasing in frequency and a second value when the radar system output is decreasing in frequency. The first and second offset values are controlled so that the radar system should indicate an object is moving at a rate (dD/dt) upon receiving the offset signal. The simulator further indicates the frequency range and amplitude of the radar system output as determined from the tracking signal.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for inhibiting immune responses by inhibiting the biosynthesis of the sialyl galactosides that are involved in immune responses. In particular, B lymphocyte-mediated immune responses are mediated by interfering with synthesis of alpha2,6 sialylgalactosides, while T lymphocyte-mediated immune responses are inhibited by blocking synthesis of alpha2,3 sialylgalactosides. The inhibition is accomplished by, for example, inhibiting the activity of a glycosyltransferase involved in synthesis of the respective sialyl galactoside.

Abstract: A spinal fixation assembly is provided that includes a bone engaging fastener and an elongated member, such as a spinal rod. The fixation assembly is a multi-axial assembly that permits fixation of the bone engaging fastener to the spinal rod at any of a continuous range of angles relative to the rod in three-dimensional space. The fixation assembly includes a receiver member having a bore therethrough, the walls of which are tapered near the bottom, and a channel communicating with the bore and having an upper opening at the top of the receiver member for insertion of a spinal rod. Also included are an outer wedge member and an inner wedge member, both of which have generally the shape of a washer and a bore therethrough. In each wedge member, the respective bore is not parallel to the central axis of the respective wedge member. Additionally, the outside surfaces of the wedge members may be tapered, and the respective bores may be tapered, so as to self-lock when seated and tightened. The bone engaging fastener fits within the bore of the inner wedge member, which in turn fits within the bore of the outer wedge member, which in turn fits within the tapered sides of the receiver member. When the desired position of the bone engaging fastener in three-dimensional space is attained, the components are seated to achieve a tight friction fit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a simplified method for biologically cleaning almost any-sized area of soil which is contaminated with mineral oil-based hydrocarbons (MHC), and especially the leftover pollutants associated with mineral oil-based hydrocarbons. According to said method, the contaminated soil is treated with concentrated nutrients to stimulate and help the growth of MHC-consuming micro-organisms so that they can be cultivated and reproduce more quickly. The inventive method is characterised in that it is particularly easy to carry out and in that after a) advance dampening/watering if necessary, b1) the soil being cleaned is broken up to a considerable depth in at least one process, b2) the concentrated nutrients are added in the form of an aqueously dilute emulsion and/or dispersion, said concentrates being sprayed essentially evenly, also in at least one process, and c) the soil is then thoroughly re-watered. Steps b1) and b2) can be carried out once or repeatedly. The following sequences are preferable: (b1)=>(b2); (b2)=>(b1); (b1)=>(b2)=>(b1) or (b2)=>(b1)=>(b2).

Abstract: A method for mold heater startup and sequencing detects the heater zones associated with greater mass and allows them to heat up before zones of lesser mass, thereby reducing wear of the associated mechanical components and minimizing degradation of plastic material. The zones of smaller mass are kept at minimal temperatures until the zones with greater mass reach a set point. The system is capable of detecting multiple levels of thermal load and provides appropriate sequential startup of the identified thermal loads. The operator may also manually program the system to override certain automated sequences in order to ensure an optimal startup sequence. The sequencing of power application to large heaters also minimizes the peak current draw of the system.

Abstract: Processes and systems for exhaust gas treatment are described in which a much less amount of an alkaline agent is used for neutralization, the amount of discharged salt can be reduced, and high-purity acids can be recovered for recycling. An exhaust gas is deacidified in a first spray tower to remove acid gas components. A cleaning solvent after absorbing HCl gas is withdrawn from the first spray tower and then introduced into a stock solution chamber of an electrodialyzing vessel. Meanwhile, a thin HCl solution is introduced into a permeation chamber of the elctrodialyzing vessel from an HCl tank. The electrodialyzing vessel comprises section chambers which are formed by cation exchange membranes and anion exchange membranes alternately disposed. The cleaning solvent after the absorption of HCl gas goes into every second one of the section chambers, so that a thin HCl solution is concentrated and recovered. <IMAGE>
