Abstract: An apparatus for controlling the power supplied from an AC power supply to an
ohmic load comprises a switch for connecting the load to the AC power supply, a
controller for providing a control signal to the switch, and a rectifier bridge having an
input and an output. The input is adapted for connection to the AC power supply and the
output is connected to a series connection of a first inductor, the load and the switch.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and specific test
bench arrangement for measuring the screening effectiveness
of cables by the evaluation of the transfer impedance (Zt)
and the transfer admittance (Yt). 
     The currents injected in the external screen of cables and
the corresponding longitudinal voltages induced in the
conductors are, first of all, measured, then a very accurate
estimation of Zt and Yt is obtained through the claimed
model, starting from an initial approximate value of them, by
imposing a good match between the measured and the calculated
values of the induced voltages. 
     In the model the coupling between the shield current and
the internal conductors is modeled by concentrating the
distributed voltage and current sources in lumped voltage and
current generators at one end of the line, considering the
remaining part as a simple passive transmission line (TL).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a simple method for
efficiently producing aromatic-substituted chlorinated
hydrocarbons, for example, high-purity cumyl chloride
(1,4-bis(2-chloro-2-propyl)benzene,  p -DCC) that can be used as
an initiator for cationic polymerization. 
     A corresponding tertiary alcohol such as
1,4-bis(2-hydroxy-2-propyl)benzene is mixed with aqueous
hydrochloric acid and subjected to stirred, and then the resulting
organic layer is brought into contact with a hydrogen chloride
gas to produce high-quality aromatic-substituted chlorinated
hydrocarbon in high yield. Furthermore, in order to purify a
mixture containing a chlorinated hydrocarbon compound, the
mixture being produced by reaction between an aqueous solution
of a metal hypochlorite and a protonic acid, the mixture is allowed
to react with an aqueous alkaline solution to form an alcohol
compound. Then, a solid is isolated by solid-liquid separation
and chlorinated again with the aqueous hydrochloric acid. As
a result, a high-purity chlorinated hydrocarbon compound is
produced in high yield.

IPC: B60L50/16
Filed: 2003-07-07
Abstract: Under the condition of a large variation ΔTm in motor
torque demand Tm*, the significant torque change may lead to
some vibration of a vehicle to temporarily heighten an angular
acceleration α. The temporary rise of the angular
acceleration α may cause the angular acceleration α to exceed
a preset threshold value αslip and result in misdetection of
the occurrence of a 'phantom' skid in an angular acceleration
α- based skid state determination (step S112). The drive
control of the invention accordingly specifies a potential for
misdetection of the occurrence of a 'phantom' skid when the
variation ΔTm in motor torque demand Tm* exceeds a preset
threshold value Tthr at step S108. The drive control thereby
does not execute skid occurring state control (step S120) with
torque restriction but performs grip state control at step
S116.

Abstract: Formulations have been developed for pulmonary delivery to treat or reduce the infectivity of diseases such as viral infections, especially tuberculosis, SARS, influenza and respiratory synticial virus in humans and hoof and mouth disease in animals. Formulations for pulmonary administration include a material that significantly alters physical properties such as surface tension and surface elasticity of lung mucus lining fluid, which may be a surfactant and, optionally, a carrier. The formulation may be administered as a powder where the particles consist basically of the material altering surface tension. The carrier may be a solution, such as an alcohol, although an aqueous solution may be utilized, or a material mixed with the material altering surface tension to form particles. These may include proteins such as albumin or polysaccharides such as dextran, which also has surface active properties, or polymers such as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or biodegradable synthetic polymers which can be used to encapsulate or deliver the materials to be delivered. Drugs, especially antivirals or antibiotics, may optionally be included with the formulation. These may be administered with or incorporated into the formulation.

IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2003-09-03
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système destinés à assurer une restriction de divulgation statistique (SDL) de microdonnées continues ou catégorisées, tout en maintenant la qualité analytique des microdonnées. La nouvelle méthodologie de SDL exploite l'analogie entre (1) prendre un échantillon (au lieu recensement), avec quelques réglages, comprenant l'imputation, pour des informations manquantes et (2) produire un sous-ensemble, au lieu de l'ensemble de données d'origine, avec quelques réglages pour des enregistrements à risque de divulgation. L'échantillonnage d'enquêtes réduit le coût monétaire par rapport au recensement, mais engendre quelques pertes d'informations. De manière similaire, la production d'un sous-ensemble réduit le coût de la divulgation par rapport à la base de données complète, mais engendre quelques pertes d'informations. Ainsi, des procédés optimaux d'échantillonnage d'enquêtes peuvent être utilisés pour une restriction de divulgation statistique. Ledit procédé comprend la division de la base de données en strates à risques, la substitution probabiliste optimale, le sous-échantillonage probabiliste optimal, et l'étalonnage de poids d'échantillon optimal.
