Title: Mineral processing tailings disposal
Inventor: BRACKEBUSCH FRED W
IPC: B09B1/00
Filed: 1996-12-12
Abstract: A process is disclosed for disposing mineral processing tailings. The process includes the step of treating the tailings to produce a flowable paste including a mass comprised of particles at least approximately 15% of which are less than 20 microns in diameter. The process further includes the step of preparing an unconfined ground surface tailings disposal site by grading a selected site to produce a substantially level paste receiving bed. The flowable paste is then deposited onto the paste receiving bed from a discharge station to flow by gravity to a natural angle of rest of between approximately 1° and 10° slope. The paste is allowed to consolidate from flowable to a solidified state, retaining the natural angle of rest. Overburden is then placed over the solidified paste. The process is particularly useful in ore processing using cyanidation in which cyanide destroying chemicals are used at or prior to preparation of the flowable paste.

Title: Methode et appareil servant a ameliorer le service de tele payante d'un serveur video par ordonnancement des taches entre un petit nombre de gros processeurs
Inventor: OZDEN BANU
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 1997-01-31
Abstract: Méthode et appareil servant à améliorer le service de télé payante d'un serveur vidéo. La présente invention permet de programmer périodiquement un groupe de tâches non sujettes à préemption correspondant aux vidéos d'un serveur vidéo possédant un nombre déterminé de processeurs. Chaque tâche débute à des périodes déterminées et comprend une série de sous-tâches séparées par des intervalles déterminés. Pour programmer le groupe de tâches, la présente invention divise les tâches en deux groupes, selon qu'elles peuvent ou non être programmées en fonction d'un seul processeur. Chacun des groupes est programmé séparément. Le nombre de processeurs requis pour traiter les tâches ne pouvant être programmées en fonction d'un seul processeur est déterminé et ces tâches sont programmées pour débuter à un temps déterminé. Quant au groupe de tâches programmable en fonction d'un seul processeur, l'invention détermine si les tâches de ce groupe peuvent ou non être traitées par les processeurs disponibles, en fonction d'un ensemble de créneaux temporels. Si ce groupe de tâches ne peut être programmé en fonction des processeurs disponibles, il est alors divisé, de façon récurrente, en sous-ensembles et l'invention procède encore à la deuxième analyse de programmabilité. Les divisions récurrentes se poursuivent jusqu'à ce qu'il soit jugé que le groupe de tâches est programmable ou qu'il n'est plus divisible. Lorsque le groupe de tâches n'est plus divisible, il est considéré improgrammable.

Patent CA-2199616-A1 (CA)
Title: Layered silicate-epoxy nanocomposites
Inventor: GIANNELIS EMMANUEL P
IPC: C08G59/14
Filed: 1995-08-29
Abstract: An epoxy-silicate nanocomposite is prepared by dispersing an organically modified smectite-type clay in an epoxy resin together with diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA), and curing in the presence of either nadic methyl anhydride (NMA), and/or benzyldimethyl amine (BDMA), and/or boron trifluoride monoethylamine (BTFA) at 100-200 ~C. Molecular dispersion of the layered silicate within the crosslinked epoxy matrix is obtained, with smectite layer spacings of 100.ANG. or more and good wetting of the silicate surface by the epoxy matrix. The curing reaction involves the functional groups of the alkylammonium ions located in the galleries of the organically modified clay, which participate in the crosslinking reaction and result in direct attachment of the polymer network to the molecularly dispersed silicate layers. The nanocomposite exhibits a broadened Tg at slightly higher temperature than the unmodified epoxy. The dynamic storage modulus of the nanocomposite was considerably higher in the glassy region and very much higher in the rubbery plateau region when compared to such modulus in the unmodified epoxy.

Title: Developing a channel impulse response by using distortion
Inventor: WANG JIN-DER
IPC: H04B1/10
Filed: 1997-03-12
Abstract: A digital audio broadcasting (DAB) system includes a radio-frequency (RF) receiver that develops a characterization signal representative of a respective mobile communications channel as a precursor to estimating a channel impulse response. The latter is used to set coefficients of an equalizer of the receiver to compensate for distortion such as intersymbol interference. In generating the channel impulse response a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the characterization signal is performed. The resulting FFT is then clipped such that frequency components above a predetermined upper threshold and less than a predetermined lower threshold are set to the respective threshold values. This allows coefficients for the equalizer to be generated such that the equalizer converges even in the presence of strong reflections in a mobile communications environment.

Title: Scheme for wire line data transmission in mobile communication system
Inventor: NAKAMURA TAKEHIRO
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 1997-03-13
Abstract: A wire line data transmission scheme in a mobile communication system for reducing the wire line transmission const. Radio state qualities of a plurality of radio channels between the plurality of base stations and the mobile station are measured, and a validity and a redundancy in composition of each radio channel is judged according to the corresponding measured radio state quality. Then, a transmission in the wire line transmission paths is controlled by stopping a transmission of transmission signals for those radio channels which are judged as invalid or redundant according to the obtained judgement result. All of measuring, judging, and controlling can be carried out by each base station, or by the mobile station. Also, measuring and judging can be carried out by the mobile station while controlling is carried out by each base station, or measuring can be carried out by the mobile station while judging and controlling can be carried out by each base station.

Patent CA-2206644-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GIRARD ALAIN
IPC: A61M60/174
Filed: 1997-05-30
Abstract: The present invention relates to a Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) comprising an axial flow blood pump which can be used as bridge to heart transplantation and as a permanent implant. The pump of the present invention is of an enclosed-impeller axial flow design, in which the rotor comprises impeller blades that intersect at an axis of rotation to form a hub of a relatively small size. The minimization of the hub volume allows a larger internal volume of the rotor to be occupied by the fluid. The pump can also be viewed as a double casing axial flow blood pump in which the permanent magnets required for the DC motor can be embedded in the enclosing tube (rotor) and the motor windings can be enclosed in the pump casing (stator). The configuration thereby optimizes the electrical coupling and this minimizes power requirement. In a preferred embodiment, the axial flow blood pump of the present invention is implantable in the ventricle of a patient. In such an intra-ventricular VAD, although the pump has a continuous speed, the pump output is pulsatile when inserted in the native heart.
