Abstract: The present invention provides a joining structure
capable of greatly improving the proof stress and the
fatigue property by alleviating the stress concentration
and residual stress caused by welding heat at one or both
ends of a tabular member. 
     In the present invention, one or both ends 4 of a
tabular member 3 such as a reinforcing rib, fixed to the
surface of a structural member 1 in the direction of the
principal stress of the structural member 1 so as to
protrude in the shape of T, is/are bent in a direction
deviating from the direction of the principal stress and,
by this, the rigidity at the end(s) 4 of the tabular
member 3 decreases and the stress concentration is
alleviated. It is preferable to bend one or both ends of
a tabular member 3 in the shape of an gradual curve and
to the extent that each bent end is formed at a right
angle to the direction of the principal stress. The
tabular member may have the shape of a flat plate, or it
may be bent so that it has the shape of U or V as a
whole. Further, the tabular member may be welded to a
structural member or formed as an integral part of a
structural member.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne multiplexeur et démultiplexeur pour systèmes de communication par fibres optiques mono-mode avec multiplexage dense par répartition en longueurs d'ondes (DWDM). En tant que multiplexeur, le dispositif a pour fonction de combiner les signaux optiques de plusieurs sources laser opérant chacune à différentes longueurs d'ondes, puis d'injecter dans une unique fibre optique les faisceaux laser spatialement combinés. En tant que démultiplexeur, le dispositif a pour fonction de séparer spatialement les différentes longueurs d'ondes d'une liaison optique à multiplexage par répartition en longueurs d'ondes puis d'injecter les différentes longueurs d'ondes chacune dans une fibre optique. Selon une autre réalisation, le dispositif comporte des composants d'optique de volume ainsi que des composants d'optique intégrée. La séparation spatiale ou la combinaison spatiale des faisceaux laser des différentes longueurs d'ondes se fait au moyen de réseaux de diffraction d'optique de volume. On utilise également des composants d'optique de volume pour le collimatage, la mise en forme (l'aiguillage) des faisceaux laser se propageant librement dans l'espace de façon à permettre un puissant couplage de la lumière dans les fibres optiques mono-mode ou dans les guides d'ondes optiques intégrés, et pour réduire la diaphonie optique. Des séparateurs de faisceaux polarisants orientent l'axe de polarisation de la lumière de façon à permettre un maximum de puissance de diffraction au niveau des réseaux, et à réduire les pertes liées à la polarisation. En outre, les flancs de coupe des fibres optiques et des guides d'ondes optiques intégrés sont inclinés par polissage de façon à réduire la rétro-réflexion et dont à réduire le bruit provoqué par le retour à la source laser. De préférence, le réseau de diffraction et l'optique de focalisation sont définis de façon à permettre un multiplexage et démultiplexage des longueurs d'ondes laser séparées de 0,4 nm dans la bande des 1550 nm. Le champ de vision préféré des optiques permet un multiplexage et démultiplexage d'un maximum de 32 à 48 canaux de longueurs d'ondes séparés de 0,4 nm dans la bande des 1550 nm. Bien que les exemples portent sur la bande optique des 1550 nm, les composants du dispositif peuvent être conçus pour fonctionner dans d'autres bandes, notamment la bande des 1310 nm qui se distingue pour son faible niveau de perte par absorption dans la fibre optique.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for signal monitoring of messages in a telecommunications network having a plurality of switches and network elements therein alleviate the need for external hardware to be hooked up to nodes of the network to determine whether faults have occurred at the nodes. A signal monitoring application disclosed herein stores related message signals and messages in a relational database wherein messages and signals having common elements can be easily and quickly viewed. The SIMO application cross-references the messages and signals in the relational database according to a transaction table which categorizes and stores the messages according to parameters set out in the transaction table. This allows the messages to be ranked and viewed very quickly without the need to process them and expend valuable computational time and resources.

Abstract: A system for making wallboard or backerboard sheets may include a mixer for mixing materials for making aerated concrete, at least one face layer supply, and a former downstream from the mixer. The former is for forming core material having opposing first and second major surfaces and comprising aerated concrete, and for securing at least one face layer from the at least one face layer supply onto at least one of the first and second major surfaces of the core material. The system may also include a cutter downstream from the former for cutting the core material and at least one face layer secured thereto into a plurality of wallboard or backerboard sheets.

Abstract: An outer shaft is spline-fitted to an inner
shaft and, after thus assembling the shafts, an
adjustment screw is moved inwards in the radial
direction while being fastened. An interval in the
radial direction between a screw member and a
receiving member of a diameter-expanding member is
thereby expanded, thereby thrusting the inner shaft
outward in the radial direction against the outer
shaft. A thrusting force acting in the radial
direction on the inner shaft against the outer shaft
can be adjusted by controlling a fastening force of
the adjustment screw. It is therefore possible to
easily adjust a slide resistance between the two
shafts and surely prevent a "backlash" between the
two shafts.
