Abstract: The lid of the container comprises an upper sub-assembly (I) including a metal layer (3) and a lower sub-assembly (II) including a hot-reactivatable upper layer (4) placed in a non-adhering manner against the metal layer (3) and a lower heat-sealable layer (5) sealed against the peripheral rim (1). The hot-reactivatable layer (4) and the heat-sealable layer (5) are layers of a synthetic material which can be separated by peeling, from the metal layer (3) and from the peripheral rim (1) respectively. Moreover, the hot-reactivatable layer (4) possesses, in a vertical line with the peripheral rim (1), a peripheral part (6) adhering to the metal layer (3) consequent upon its heating when sealing the heat-sealable layer (5) onto the peripheral rim (1). The upper sub-assembly (I) can be separated from the lower sub-assembly (II), this allowing the container to be introduced into a microwave oven since, after the separation, the lid includes no metal layer. <IMAGE>

Abstract: On prend successivement des images d'objets en mouvement au moyen d'une caméra statique et on génère avec ces prises de vues une séquence d'images. On forme avec la différence entre cette séquence d'images et une séquence d'images de référence une séquence différentielle d'images. En utilisant un seuil, on convertit en binaire la séquence différentielle d'images et on forme des masques binaires d'objets. On forme de manière récursive dans le temps la séquence d'images de référence, étant donné qu'une image de référence correspondant à une image dépend de la différence entre l'image précédente et l'image de référence correspondant à l'image précédente, l'image de référence initiale ayant une valeur initiale sélectionnable. La séquence d'images de référence ne dépend ainsi que de l'image présente et de l'image de référence, de sorte que l'on obtient une adaptation à des modifications lentes de l'intensité de l'image. On évite ainsi des erreurs de détection.

Abstract: En ajustant l'activité catalytique des métaux nobles lors de la production de compositions catalytiques en alliages de métaux nobles au moyen d'alliages capables d'assumer des états de valence multiples, on améliore la charge en métaux d'alliage. On précipite sur un substrat un métal noble contenu dans un liquide. Avant d'ajouter un métal d'alliage capable d'assumer un état de basse valence, ayant une solubilité réduite, et un état de haute valence, ayant une solubilité élevée, on réduit l'activité catalytique du précipité de métal noble. On provoque la réduction en ajustant la température et/ou le pH du liquide, de sorte qu'une quantité minimale du métal d'alliage soit convertie de l'état de basse valence à l'état de haute valence. En maintenant le métal d'alliage à l'état de basse valence, on provoque la précipitation sur le substrat d'une quantité plus important du métal d'alliage dissous dans le liquide, ce qui permet d'obtenir des charges élevées, de réduire les métaux d'alliage rejetés, de rendre prévisibles les charges et de rendre les liquides rejetés moins polluants.

Abstract: A digital encoder for compressing a digital input signal derived from an analog signal to reduce the number of bits required to represent the analog signal with low quantizing noise. In the encoder, a digital input signal representing the analog signal is divided into three frequency ranges. The digital signal in each of the three frequency ranges is divided in time into frames, the time duration of which may be adaptively varied. The frames are orthogonally transformed into spectral coefficients, which are grouped into critical bands. The total number of bits available for quantizing the spectral coefficients is allocated among the critical bands. In a first embodiment and a second embodiment, fixed bits are allocated among the critical bands according to a selected one of a plurality of predetermined bit allocation patterns and variable bits are allocated among the critical bands according to the energy in the critical bands. In the first embodiment, the apportionment between fixed bits and variable bits is fixed. In a second embodiment, the apportionment between fixed bits and variable bits is varied according to the smoothness of the spectrum of the input signal. In a third embodiment, bits are allocated among the critical bands according to a noise shaping factor that is varied according to the smoothness of the spectrum of the input signal. All three embodiments give low quantizing noise with both broad spectrum signals and highly tonal signals. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In dynamic force, pressure, acceleration and strain measuring processes, particularly in cyclic processes as, for example, injection moulding, there is the problem of accurately analysing partial signals by means of magnification and better resolution. The amplifier circuit essentially comprises a first measurement amplifier (Messverst.) following the pick-up, and, in series therewith, a second measurement amplifier consisting of a charge amplifier V1 and a voltage amplifier V2 with capacitive coupling to the output of the first measurement amplifier. Measurement signals can be picked up both at the output A (Ausg.A) of the first measurement amplifier and at the output B (Ausg.B) of the second measurement amplifier (V1, V2). The voltage Ua at the output A is representative of the total signal and the voltage Ub at the output B is representative of the amplified partial signal with better resolution. The second measurement amplifier can be activated by opening a previously closed switch bypassing the feedback capacitor Cg by means of a control signal (transition from reset to operate position). This process can be repeated any number of times during the entire measuring process so that the partial signals of several time intervals can be amplified and better resolved. <IMAGE>

Before entering the transmission path (7) the flow of data (DS) is scrambled in a predetermined manner and unscrambled in the same manner on leaving the transmission path (7). A bit error function e(n) is obtained from test data (TZ) inserted into the flow of data (DS) at the data source and evaluated according to its period length (N). A bit error (BF) occurring before scrambling goes unmultiplied to the data receiver after unscrambling, whereas a bit error (BF) occurring on the transmission path (7) is multiplied by a period length (Nv) specific to the descrambling. A comparison of this period length (Nv) with the period length (N) of the bit error function (e(n)) makes it possible to locate the origin.

Abstract: S-nitrosothiols exert a potent relaxant effect, mediated by guanylate cyclase, upon non-vascular smooth muscle. Such types of smooth muscle include airway, gastrointestinal, bladder, uterine and corpus cavernosal. Thus, S-nitrosothiols may be used for the treatment or prevention of disorders associated with relaxation of smooth muscle, such as airway obstruction, and other respiratory disorders, bladder dysfunction, premature labor and impotence. Additionally, S-nitrosothiols may be used to alleviate smooth muscle contraction and spasm, and thus facilitate procedures involving diagnostic instrumentation, such as endoscopy, bronchoscopy, laparoscopy and cystoscopy.

Abstract: In conventional fabrication manufacture the thickness of the steel plates (16, 16') are often determined by the metal section required at the weld joints. The subject apparatus (10, 10') and method overcomes this problem by selectively forming a thickened edge (12, 12') along the edge (14, 14') of a thinner steel plate (16, 16') which can now be limited to the thickness required to withstand the stresses on the fabrication. The thickened edge (12, 12') is produced by passing a plate (16, 16') supported on a table (20, 20') through a forming apparatus (22, 22') having a forming roller (58, 58'). The table (20, 20') is movable in an oblique direction relative to the plate so that the shape of the thickened edge may be varied. The forming apparatus (22, 22') and table (20, 20') are automatically controlled to produce a thickened edge (12, 12') of a desired shape intermittently or continuously along a linear or non-linear edge (14, 14') of the plate (20, 20').

Abstract: Cette invention concerne essentiellement un réseau amplificateur à anticipation (200) utilisant une onde pilote à balayage de fréquence afin de réduire la distorsion produite par l'amplificateur de puissance (202) du réseau. Une onde pilote à balayage de fréquence générée par exemple par un oscillateur (213) à fréquence variable est introduite dans la voie d'entrée du signal d'entrée de l'amplificateur de puissance (202). On utilise ensuite un système d'annulation de la distorsion pour générer un signal de sortie de l'amplificateur ne comprenant pratiquement ni l'onde pilote et ni les signaux de distorsion produits par l'amplificateur de puissance (202). Le signal de sortie amplifié est ensuite détecté par un détecteur (215) qui est verrouillé en phase par rapport à l'oscillateur à fréquence variable (213) afin de vérifier l'énergie de l'onde pilote moyenne restant dans le signal de sortie amplifié. Lorsqu'il se produit une détection, plusieurs caractéristiques du réseau amplificateur sont ajustées en réponse à cette dernière, afin de réduire la quantité d'onde pilote existant au niveau de la sortie (21) du réseau amplificateur.
