Title: Compositions lipidiques chargees et procedes d'utilisation desdites compositions
Inventor: SPARKS DANIEL L
IPC: A61P31/04
Filed: 2001-07-31
Abstract: Composition pharmaceutique qui comporte un phospholipide chargé synthétique ou naturel, préparée sous une forme galénique destinée à être administrée à un sujet ou qui est administrée en tant qu'additif alimentaire. Des compositions phospholipidiques négativement chargées augmentent la charge négative nette sur les lipoprotéines intravasculaires, favorisent l'élimination du cholestérol et régulent la fonction des enzymes lipolytiques, retardent la formation de la prothrombine et contribuent à l'élimination des particules virales et bactériennes. Des compositions lipidiques négativement chargées peuvent par conséquent être administrées aux humains et aux animaux pour le traitement de l'hyperlipidémie et des troubles de la coagulation sanguine et pour réduire les taux de virus, de bactéries et d'endotoxines dans le flux sanguin. Des compositions lipidiques chargées positivement peuvent être administrées pour retarder l'élimination des lipoprotéines plasmatiques et prolonger l'action de médicaments associés à ces lipoprotéines.

Title: Methods for determining characteristics of earth formations
Inventor: SPROSS RONALD L
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2002-10-01
Abstract: A method for measuring one or more characteristics of an earth formation whereby energy is emitted circumferentially about a borehole (16) into the formation, and the amount reflected back is detected during a plurality of sample periods. The samples are grouped into two or more groups by the azimuthal sector in which the sample was collected. Within a group, each sample is mathematically weighted according to the standoff of the detector from the borehole wall when the sample was taken. Within a group, the weight ed samples are summed to produce a weighted total amount of energy detected within a sector. The weighted total is then transformed into the one or more characteristics.

Patent CA-2486773-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WOBBEN ALOYS
IPC: E04H12/08
Filed: 2003-05-16
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour assembler deux brides, notamment deux brides montées sur les segments (portées) d'un pylône d'une éolienne pour relier ces segments, les brides communiquant par liaison de force. Cette invention se base sur le fait qu'il est possible de faire une économie de temps notable lorsque la couche à appliquer sur un des éléments du raccord à brides ne doit pas être appliquée sur le chantier, mais qu'elle est déjà appliquée au préalable, cette couche étant, par exemple, en matière thermoplastique (plastique). On peut ainsi réaliser une couche de qualité homogène dans des conditions contrôlées et on peut éliminer de manière fiable le risque, par exemple, d'inclusion de matériau étranger dans ladite couche lors d'un traitement en plein air. En outre, cette couche peut être placée sur la surface de contact soit avant le transport des segments individuels d'un pylône, soit sur le chantier, après avoir été retirée d'un emballage de transport, par économie de temps. La présente invention porte également sur un procédé pour assembler deux brides, selon lequel une couche est formée dans la zone de raccordement, cette couche étant moins malléable dans un premier espace temporel antérieur à l'assemblage et dans un troisième espace temporel postérieur à l'assemblage que dans un deuxième espace temporel, qui se trouve entre le premier et le troisième espace temporel et pendant lequel la viscosité de la couche augmente.

Title: Annuleur d'echo numerique
Inventor: LANEY ANDREW D
IPC: H04B3/23
Filed: 2003-06-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil supprimant la réflexion du signal tel qu'un annuleur d'écho. Dans le procédé et l'appareil d'écrit, des retards sont appliqués aux échantillons de signaux, ces retards permettant le traitement en rafales d'échantillons consécutifs de signaux d'émission et de réception dans un réseau de communication tel qu'un système téléphonique. Ce procédé permet de réduire considérablement la largeur de bande de la mémoire par rapport au traitement conventionnel des signaux par échantillons successifs. Ces annuleurs d'écho peuvent être mis en oeuvre dans un réseau prédiffusé programmable par l'utilisateur (FPGA). Ce procédé permet d'annuler les échos dans plus de mille canaux au moyen d'un FPGA et d'une mémoire externe. Les modes de réalisation destinés à l'annulation d'un signal de réflexion font appel à des étages d'estimation d'écho multiples.
Patent CA-2490472-A1 (CA)
Title: Electric power line on-line diagnostic method
Inventor: ENNIS MICHAEL G
IPC: G01R31/02
Filed: 2003-06-12
Abstract: An arrangement and method is provided for determining the present condition and/or expected life of electric power lines via the measurement and analysis of the current into and the current out of the electric power line, thus permitting preventive action on electric power lines before problems arise. In this way, any departure from normal operation may also be detected, e.g. such as caused by a high-impedance fault or the like. The phase angle difference between the input and output currents provides a measure of the condition of the line, i.e. specifically, this phase angle shift between the input and output currents increases as the line ages and loss factors increase. Due to the inherent noise in the current signals, in one embodiment the phase angle shift is measured via a cross-correlation between the input and output current signals to provide the measured phase angle. This phase angle is compared to that of acceptable lines and a determination is then made as to the condition or quality of the measured line. Where the signals are extremely noisy, an auto-correlation process is carried out on one of the current signals to provide an error factor that is a measure of the possible error in the cross-correlation process. This error factor is then subtracted from the phase shift as measured in the correlation process to provide a more realistic estimate of the phase angle shift between the input and output currents.
