Patent EP-0979055-A1 (EP)
Inventor: RICHARDSON CAROLYN ANNE
IPC: A61B5/0488
Filed: 1998-05-08
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant d'évaluer la fonction des muscles profonds stabilisateurs d'articulations. Les muscles superficiels sont surveillés au moyen d'une unité EMG (3) pendant la réalisation d'une activité qui requiert essentiellement l'utilisation de muscles profonds stabilisateurs lorsqu'elle est réalisée correctement. Si la fonction des muscles profonds est adéquate, les muscles superficiels ne bougent que très peu. Inversement, si la fonction des muscles profonds est inadéquate, l'activité des muscles superficiels augmente. La surveillance des muscles superficiels peut être combinée à la surveillance de muscles profonds stabilisateurs d'articulations par imagerie ultrasonore (12) et/ou feedback biologique indiquant les variations de tension. L'appareil comprend une unité EMG (3), une unité ultrasonore, une unité de feedback biologique (16) indiquant les variations de tension et un vitalographe (9), en combinaison avec un ordinateur (5) programmé pour analyser les données provenant de ces appareils et donner des informations sur la fonction musculaire.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des éléments génétiques régulateurs, qui font partie d'un système régulateur négatif d'ARN naturel antisens dans des cellules eucaryotes. Lorsque ces éléments génétiques régulateurs, ci-après dénommés séquence d'initiation antisens, sont placés en aval d'une molécule d'ADN et liés de manière opérationnelle à cette molécule, ils peuvent transcrire cette molécule d'ADN en transcrits d'ARN à polarité de brins négative. Ces transcrits sont destinés à se fixer à des transcrits d'ARN signifiants, formant ainsi une double hélice d'ARN, ces transcrits d'ARN étant en outre produits à partir d'un gène cible destiné à être régulé. L'invention concerne également des vecteurs recombinés destinés à être introduits dans des cellules eucaryotes, ainsi que des procédés d'utilisation de ces vecteurs permettant de réguler l'expression d'un gène cible, ces procédés consistant à introduire lesdits vecteurs recombinés dans des cellules eucaryotes hôtes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un bac (16) de mise en contact vapeur-liquide doté d'un conduit de descente d'amont (46) et d'un conduit de descente d'aval (48) qui forment un conduit de descente à deux étages. La sortie d'évacuation de la descente d'amont (46) envoie du liquide dans le conduit de descente d'aval (48) pour isoler de manière étanche la sortie d'évacuation (58) du conduit de descente d'aval (48) et empêcher l'entrée de vapeur à des débits de liquide inférieurs et pour permettre le positionnement de la sortie d'évacuation (58) au dessus du déversoir situé sur le bac inférieur (16). Etant donné que le conduit de descente d'amont (46) n'évacue par le liquide directement sur le sommet du bac inférieur (40), la zone du sommet (40) du bac se trouvant au-dessous du conduit de descente d'amont (46) peut contenir des ouvertures (68) pour l'écoulement de vapeur de sorte que la surface active et l'efficacité de transfert de masse du bac (16) soit accrue.

Abstract: Procédé et dispositif améliorés permettant de protéger les logiques de clés publiques, sur la base de l'exponentiation modulaire (RSA et Diffie-Hellman notamment), contre les techniques crypto-analytiques indirectes, telles que les attaques basées sur la séquence des opérations et les fautes. Typiquement, les procédés connus permettant d'implémenter des logiques théoriques de nombres qui résistent à ces attaques doublent le temps d'exécution, tandis que les nouveaux procédés et dispositifs décrits dans ce brevet n'ajoutent qu'une surcharge système négligeable. Cette amélioration est particulièrement significative pour les cartes à puce et les implémentations reposant sur un logiciel, dans lesquelles l'opération d'exponentation modulaire est assez lente et où le doublement de leur durée risque d'être une solution inacceptable.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device
according to the invention comprises an N-type semiconductor
substrate which contains N-type impurities and has a
predetermined resistance value, a P layer consisting of a
P-type electric conductor formed on one face of the N-type
semiconductor substrate, an N +  layer which is formed on the
other face of the N-type semiconductor substrate and consists
of a high concentration N-type electric conductor and a buffer
layer formed by heat treatment after irradiating ion of small
mass to the vicinity of said N +  layer of the N-type semiconductor
substrate. A resistance value of the buffer layer is
established to be a value between resistance values of the
N-type semiconductor substrate and the N +  layer. The
semiconductor device can be formed by changing resistance value
of only a region having a predetermined depth without being
influenced by heat treatment after ion implantation.

Abstract: A reflecting material for antennas containing a three-axis
woven fabric usable for high frequency band ranging
from 20 to 60 [GHz]. A reflecting material (1) for high-frequency
band is fabricated by adjusting the weave density n,
volume resistivity ρ and denier η of the three-axis woven
fabric (2), without marring the merits of the three-axis woven
fabric (2). In particular, parameters are set according to the
composite model reflection factor Γ, which is the sum of a
first reflection factor Γs based on the surface resistance of the
three-axis woven fabric and a second reflection factor Γp
based on the aperture portion of the three-axis woven fabric. It
is preferable that the weave density n is about 5 to 28
[yarns/in], the denier η is about 10 to 460 tex (g/1000 m), and
the volume resistivity ρ is about 0.7 to 2.0 x 10 -3  [Ω.cm].

Abstract: The measuring device for contactless detection of a rotational angle (α) comprises a carrier plate (12) serving as a rotor and made from a soft-magnetic material. Two segments (15, 16) are separated by a slot (17) are arranged on a plane lying parallel to the carrier plate (14). A backflow part (20) is arranged on one of the segments (16), whereby all said parts are made from a soft-magnetic material. The backflow part (20) and the segments (15, 16) are designed to guide the magnetic flow generated by a permanent magnet (13) that is mounted on the carrier plate (12). Since the backflow part (20) projects beyond the carrier plate (12) or the carrier plate (12) projects beyond the backflow part (20) in another embodiment, interference immunity is achieved in relation to axial or radial play. The measuring device also has a relatively simple and compact design.

Abstract: A method for determining the location of an object in a passenger compartment of a
vehicle in which ultrasonic waves are transmitted from a first transducer into the passenger
compartment, waves reflected off an object in the passenger compartment are received by the first
transducer and a first distance from the first transducer to the object is calculated based on the
time difference between the transmitted waves and reflected waves when received by the first
transducer. Further, different ultrasonic waves are transmitted from a second transducer into the
passenger compartment which then receives reflected waves off the object and a second distance
from the second transducer to the object is calculated based on the time difference between the
transmitted waves and reflected waves when received by the second transducer. The approximate
location of the object in the passenger compartment is determined based on the first distance and
the second distance.
