Abstract: The problems caused by chemical and thermal shrinkage of hard roll covers, are reduced by the inclusion of one or more intermediate compressive layers between the metal roll and the outer cover, or "topstock". A compressive layer has the properties of being rigid enough to allow the cover to be applied to the roll, and compressible enough to buffer and absorb the stresses which occur as the cover is shrinking during processing. In one embodiment, the intermediate compressive layer comprises a three dimensional fabric that is filled preferably with a thermoset resin system which cures at lower temperature than cover. In a second embodiment, the precise amount of shrinkage in the roll can be predetermined to a high enough degree of accuracy so that a depth for the fabric layer can be used to compensate for the amount of shrinkage, thereby eliminating the need for filling. In a third embodiment, the compressive layer is comprised of a wax material. The problems caused by chemical and thermal shrinkage are further reduced through a method based on applying a polymeric cover layer over one or more intermediate compressive layers, curing at an elevated temperature, and, allowing the cover to shrink during curing or hardening.

Abstract: A wall of a four-piece mold is made by machining cooling channels into one side of a steel backup member. The cooling channels are filled with wax which is then covered with conductive paint or tape. A layer of copper is now electroplated onto the side of the backup member with the cooling channels, and nickel and chromium are plated over the copper in succession. Upon completion of plating, the wax is removed from the cooling channels by melting the wax. Alternatively to machining the cooling channels into the backup member, strips of plastic are adhesively secured to the backup member prior to plating. The plastic strips, which have widths and heights equal to the desired widths and depths of the cooling channels, are placed on the backup member at the intended locations of the cooling channels. Copper is plated onto the backup member to the height of the strips which are then removed to form the cooling channels. The cooling channels are filled with wax and the process of making the mold wall is then completed as before.

Abstract: The procedure enables processing signals representing the waves reflected or transmitted by an object (O) in order to carry out an analysis of the structure of the object. The process includes transmission of waves incident on the structure and reception of the waves reflected by the object using a number of detection elements (D1 - Dn) independent of one another. After reception and digitisation the information is stored in a field memory (MC). For each point of the object (Pij) a calculation is carried out for the positions occupied in the field memory for the signals detected by each of the detection elements at a given instant. This position information is then applied to a further process which allows the determination of the size and form of the reflected wave, in order to determine the structure of the object (O).

Abstract: Method and data processing system for determining the type, the number and the volume of financial instruments for funding of a loan with an interest rate adjustment with an equivalent proceeds to a debtor, the loan being at least partially refinanced during the remaining term to maturity of the loan. In the data processing system, data are loaded, which data indicate the principal of the loan, the term to maturity of the loan, the profile of repayment, and a desired/intended profile of refinancing. Furthermore, data are loaded, which data indicate requirements as to maximum difference in proceeds, maximum difference interest rate, and maximum difference in balance between on the one side the creditor and on the other side the debtor. On the basis of these data as well as a first guess at an interest rate, the volume of a number of financial instruments to be applied for funding of the loan is calculated. The results of the calculations can be applied by the debtor, for instance a financial institution such as a mortgage credit institution, to secure that the loan is funded in such a way that interest rate risks such as imbalance in the payment flow is avoided or minimized. By applying the results of the method according to the invention, the creditor has the possibility of creating a hedge between lending and funding.

Abstract: In a radio communications system, a method of configuring a first radio unit involves downloading data blocks from a second memory element of a second radio unit into a computer 152, via radio service software (RSS), processing the data blocks in the computer 163 and partitioning at least product specific data blocks into a first memory block of the computer 175 and at least common data blocks, such as channel data and bandwidth, into a second memory block of the computer 170. The common data blocks are then uploaded from the second memory block of the computer into a first memory element of the first radio unit 172. For system compatibility, the data is preferably transferred via ASCII characters. This method enables common data programming of one radio communication product using the data stored in a different product and thus reduces the amount of information stored, and time taken, for the reconfiguration of radio units such as mobile phones.

Abstract: A magnetic structure generating a substantially uniform magnetic field within a region of interest comprising at least one pair of magnetic wedges of substantially identical shape arranged symmetrically about a first axis and abutting one another along a common edge. Each magnetic wedge has a first side and a second side which terminate at the common edge. The first wedge of each pair is positioned to define a first angle between the first side and the first axis and a second angle between the second side and the first axis, and is uniformly magnetized in a direction relative to a second axis (perpendicular to the first axis) which is a function of the sum of the first and second angles. The second wedge of each pair is magnetized such that the absolute values of components of the magnetization along the first and second axes are equal to components of the magnetization of the first wedge along the first and second axes, respectively, and one of the magnetization components of the second wedge is opposite to the respective magnetization component of the first wedge. The region of interest containing the substantially uniform field is between the first sides of the pair of wedges, the second sides of the pair of wedges, or both. To minimize or eliminate the surface charge density along the third side of each wedge, the third side of each wedge is preferably parallel to the direction in which the wedge is magnetized.
