Abstract: Est décrit un procédé de traitement d'images permettant le stockage et l'affichage hiérarchiques d'images numériques de haute résolution dans un environnement à usages multiples. Le procédé permet de disposer de versions de résolution réduites de l'image originale, disponibles pour un affichage rapide sur des moniteurs vidéo, tout en donnant accès à l'image de pleine résolution pour des tirages de qualité photographique. Ce procédé multirésolutions permet également un stockage efficace de ces données par l'intermédiaire d'une code hybride basé sur des images résiduelles. Plusieurs modes de réalisation de l'invention sont décrits.

Abstract: A process is described for removing dissolved silica from process solutions or slurries formed in the Bayer process for producing alumina from bauxite. In the novel process, a Bayer process solution or slurry is contacted with porous agglomerates of a material containing Bayer process desilication product and bonded together by a polymer resin which is resistant to chemical degradation by high concentrations of caustic present in Bayer process liquors. The desilication product is essentially complex hydrated sodium aluminum silicates and typical bonding resins are polyvinylchloride or polypropylene.

Abstract: A method for increasing the capacity of a garbage dump to allow additional garbage to be dumped therein, in which a depth packing device, such as a vibrator or ram, is lowered from the surface of the dump down to a predetermined depth to form a hole surrounded by compacted garbage; additional garbage is then placed in the hole and additionally compacted by the same depth packing device used to form the hole. If a vibrator is used, the additional garbage is dispensed from the vibrator tip as the vibrator is withdrawn from the hole so that a compacted column of garbage is formed. A ram device comprising a pipe having a removable closure at the lower end may also be used. As the pipe is withdrawn from the hole, additional garbage is placed through it and out through the lower closure; the additional garbage is compacted with a weight guided through the pipe.

Abstract: A device for measuring displacement and force comprises two masses of material linked together by a parallel beam linkage which permits displacement of one mass relative to the other in a single direction. The displacement or force input to be measured is applied to one of the masses in the allowable direction. The displacement of the masses with respect to each other is sensed by a sensor. In a preferred embodiment, the sensor comprises a Hall effect sensor attached to one of the masses positioned between two magnets attached to the other mass. Movement of one mass relative to the other changes the magnetic field around the Hall effect sensor. The change is sensed by the Hall effect sensor.
