Abstract: A plastic drink-through lid (10) of the type having a deck
(26), a peripheral skirt (19), and a partially separable,
preformed tab (12) in the deck to form a drink-through hole
which does not extend through the peripheral skirt (19). The
tab (12) has an upstanding thumb catch (14) preformed
thereon. A fold back hinge (28) is formed in the deck (26)
immediately adjacent the tab (12) and spaced less than about
one-half of the lid radius from the periphery. This creates
a very short throw which allows a user to open the tab (12)
and lock it back with the thumb of the same hand that is
holding a cup.

Abstract: A system and method of controlling clearance in a turbomachine (10)
includes adjusting the machine case cooling (33) air in response to the difference
between the desired clearance and the actual clearance. An accurate estimate of
the actual clearance is made with a real time mathematical model on-board engine
controller (40). The model computes thermal growth of the turbomachine
components (41, 43, 50) each with a difference equation derived from a closed form
solution to the 1 st  order differential equation obtained through the application of 1 st 
law of thermodynamics. The resulting equation is conveniently formulated in
terms of equivalent time constant and steady state growth both correlated with
thermo-physical characteristics of multiple fluid streams (48) exchanging heat with
the component (41, 43, 50). The solution is applied over a time step of the control
software. Approximating coefficients are strategicay placed in the model to allow
calibration of the model to a particular version of the engine hardware.

Abstract: For determining characteristics of components of a
communication channel, for example of a transponder in a
communication satellite, a clean carrier signal f(t) is
modulated with a pseudo noise signal PN(t) and transmitted
through the communication channel at a level below the
level of a payload signal which is transmitted via the
communication channel simultaneously. The received signal
s'(t) is correlated with same pseudo noise signal PN(t) to
obtain a recovered carrier signal f'(t). Both the clean
carrier signal f(t) and the recovered carrier signal f'(t)
can be used to determine the desired characteristics. Since
the PN modulated clean carrier signal s(t) is transmitted
at a low level, it is possible to perform measurements
without switching off the payload signal.
