Abstract: A new type of dry connector for wood and concrete mixed structures is proposed. In particular, the connector is to be utilized to strengthen historic floors but it can be used also to strengthen recent and new structures. The connector consists of a metal pin (1) which is conceived in such a way as to permit a strong engagement in wood by means of a threaded stem (3) and this is the reason why no auxiliary stirrups are required while the solidarization of the connector with concrete is permitted by the adherence between the connector head (2) and concrete. The connector head can be shaped like a hexagon or square or it can be a cut head or other suitable type of head depending on the requirements. Preferably, the head (2) shows a lower narrower neck that anchors the concrete and forms a screwing part to screw the connector in the beam. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A thrombin derivative having a lowered fibrinogen activity, a process for producing thereof, an anhydrothrombin derivative having a lowered fibrinogen activity, and a process for producing thereof are provided. This invention is to provide a thrombin derivative formed by modifying carboxyl group(s) of the thrombin and an anhydrothrombin derivative formed by modifying carboxyl group (s) of the anhydrothrombin. The thrombin derivative can be utilized as a composition for inducing platelet aggregation and further as a reagent of specific aggregation for clinical testing and the like. By the affinity chromatography having carboxyl group(s) bound with anhydrothrombin as a ligand, it is made possible to carry out necessary purification with high selectivity relative to the blood coagulation factor VIII. Further, the anhydrothrombin derivative which results from modifying carboxyl group(s) of anhydrothrombin produces sufficient antithrombogenic effects at a smaller amount as compared with the previous anhydrothrombin and, therefore, can be utilized as an agent for inhibiting the thrombogenesis.

Abstract: A floating drive on dry dock includes a variable buoyancy beam positioned below the deck of the dock. The beam is formed of separate cells that can be filled with air from a common feeder line. Separate inlet risers allow air into each cell. As the air moves into each cell, water is displaced out an opening in the bottom of the cell. The flow of air and water is restricted or damped to assure even filling of the cells in a beam. The feeder line and risers can be back filled with water to limit air flow between cells. Multiple beams can be used to achieve the desired buoyancy.

Abstract: An audio encoder and decoder use architectures and techniques that improve the efficiency of quantization (e.g., weighting) and inverse quantization (e.g., inverse weighting) in audio coding and decoding. The described strategies include various techniques and tools, which can be used in combination or independently. For example, an audio encoder quantizes audio data in multiple channels, applying multiple channel-specific quantizer step modifiers, which give the encoder more control over balancing reconstruction quality between channels. The encoder also applies multiple quantization matrices and varies the resolution of the quantization matrices, which allows the encoder to use more resolution if overall quality is good and use less resolution if overall quality is poor. Finally, the encoder compresses one or more quantization matrices using temporal prediction to reduce the bitrate associated with the quantization matrices. An audio decoder performs corresponding inverse processing and decoding.

Abstract: In a hydroforming process low pressure fluid (LPF) is supplied through inlet means (3) to a working chamber (2) and the pressure of said fluid is then considerably raised for deforming the workpiece against a die (22). Vacuum (V) is applied to the working chamber through separate outlet means (5) as low pressure fluid is fed thereto. This application of vacuum is then terminated prior to raising the fluid pressure to the forming pressure (HPF), and the outlet means is simultaneously blocked. Through the application of vacuum the pre-filling of the working chamber with low pressure fluid will be will speeded-up to a considerable degree, while the fluid supply may still be performed in a closed fluid system. Since the pre-filling of the working chamber with low pressure fluid conventionally constitutes a considerable part of the complete hydroforming cycle, such a speeded-up fluid supply will have a significant effect on the productivity of the forming technique.
