Abstract: A Method is described for synchronizing the output of end-terminals. The method is used in a system comprising a station, which transmits a packetized stream to at least a first and second end-terminal. Each end-terminal comprises a variable delay unit and is connected to at least one synchronization unit for calculating delay information. Further, each end-terminal is capable of determining the arrival time of a packet in the stream. In the method a direct communication channel between the first end-terminal, the second end-terminal and the synchronization unit is established. First arrival time information of a packet arriving at the first end-terminal and second arrival time information of a packet arriving at the second end-terminal is received and delay information for the first and second end-terminal is calculated on the basis of the first and second arrival time information. Thereafter, the first end-terminal and second end-terminal are provided with the delay information enabling the variable delay unit of the end-terminals to delay transmission of the stream such that the output of the end-terminals is substantially synchronized.

Abstract: The method involves determining load-dependent operating parameters of a door drive and switching from a fast running mode to a normal running mode based on the parameters for preventing overloading of the door drive. Temperature of a component e.g. engine and power electronics, of the door drive is measured. Torque produced by the engine is determined. The parameters are matched to the measured temperature and a change of the measured temperature. Electrical current and electrical power for an operation of a drive motor of the door drive are determined.

Title: Method of conditioning natural gas in preparation for storage
Inventor: LOURENCO JOSE
IPC: F25J1/02
Filed: 2007-01-31
Abstract: A method of conditioning natural gas in preparation for storage, involves taking an existing stream of continuously flowing natural gas flowing through a gas line (12) on its way to end users and diverting a portion of the stream of continuously flowing natural gas to a storage facility through a storage diversion line (22). The pressure of the natural gas is lowered, as is the temperature by the Joule-Thompson effect. The natural gas is passed in a single pass through a series of heat exchangers (18, 28, 30, 32) prior to resuming flow through the gas line (12) at the lowered pressure. The diverted natural gas is liquefied in preparation for storage by effecting a heat exchange with the natural gas.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé qui permet de récupérer le cuivre à partir d'un sulfure de cuivre contenant de la pyrite. Selon ce procédé, le minerai est concassé puis lessivé dans une solution contenant de l'acide sulfurique dans des conditions atmosphériques au moyen du cuivre trivalent. A mesure que s'effectue le lessivage du sulfure, le fer trivalent est réduit en fer divalent puis réoxydé en fer trivalent avec de l'oxygène pendant le lessivage. Le lessivage est effectué dans un réacteur fermé, le gaz non dissous se dégageant de la solution dans la partie supérieure du réacteur étant renvoyé dans la partie dans la suspension de solution, de solide et de gaz. Le lessivage est effectué en présence de fer divalent et de fer trivalent, avec de préférence du cuivre dissous fonctionnant comme un catalyseur destiné à promouvoir le lessivage. Les conditions sont ajustées pour faire en sorte que la pyrite ou le minerai ne soit pas sensiblement dissous.

Abstract: In a game device (200), a storage unit (201) stores a position of a player character, a position of an enemy character, and candidate positions for new enemy character appearance. A measuring unit (202) measures an elapsed time from the start of the game. The calculating unit (203) calculates a reference distance for determining a position where the new enemy character is to be produced based on the elapsed time measured by the measuring unit (202). The reference distance monotonically increases with respect to the elapsed time measured by the measuring unit (202). When a new enemy character is to be produced in the game, an appearance setting unit (204) selects from among the candidates stored in the storage unit (201) the candidate having a distance to the player character that is closest to the reference distance, and sets the selected position as the appearance position of the new enemy character.
