Abstract: When a grounding fault occurs at a point 2 in a power line (1A), power line breakers (3A, 4A) at one or both ends of the power line (1A) are operated to disconnect the power line (1A) from external circuits (22A, 23A). Such disconnection may not immediately distinguish the current at the fault point 2 and therefore the ends of the power line (1A) are grounded by closing grounding switches (5A, 6A) connected thereto. The grounding switches (5A, 6A) have subsequently to be opened for normal operation to resume. If the current through the grounding switches (5A, 6A) is not zero, for example because a direct current component is induced in the power line (1A) by other adjacent power lines (1B, 1C), then the grounding switches (5A, 6A) may be damaged. Therefore, resistors (9, 10, 16) are placed in series with the grounding switches to attenuate any direct current component and/or the current through the grounding switches is monitored (11, 12) and the opening of the grounding switches is prevented when the current is non-zero.

Abstract: A method is provided for forming an integrated circuit contact structure. A conductive region (12) is formed on a semiconductor device (10). Thereafter an insulating layer (14,16,18) is formed over the conductive region (10). An opening (22) is then formed through the insulating region (14,16,18) to the conductive region (12). A thin barrier layer (26) is deposited over the integrated circuit contact structure. A portion of the thin barrier layer (26) is removed by backsputtering the integrated circuit contact structure so that only a thin barrier sidewall (28) remains. Finally, a conductive metal (30) layer is deposited over the integrated circuit contact structure. In one embodiment, the integrated circuit contact structure is baked before the conductive metal layer (30) is deposited.

Abstract: An NMR excitation coil includes a plurality of conductive elements having varying lengths and arranged parallel to one another to define a cylindrical volume. A planar loop connects one end of the conductive element together with conductive segments between pairs of the conductive elements. A non-planar loop connects the other ends of the conductive elements with a series of conductive segments between pairs of the conductive elements. Some of the non-planar loop segments are formed by a coaxial cable having a central conductor connected between ends of two conductive elements and a shield that electrically floats. A separate capacitor is located in those segments of the two loops that are not formed by coaxial cables. Each capacitor has a capacitance which is defined by the inductance of the conductive elements connected to that capacitor.

Abstract: The method of management, according to the invention, of a refuse pit (1) can be broken down into two parts, firstly an application on the admission of the refuse to and an application on the removal of the refuse from the pit, it being possible to apply the two parts independently or simultaneously. During management of the admission of the refuse, the average lower calorific power (PCi) of the refuse charging is estimated (21), the lorry (30) then being directed, following a calculation carried out by calculation means (6), towards a given access (10) to the pit, in such a manner that the PCi of the pile of refuse (5) contained in the pit is as homogeneous as possible. For the management of the removal of the refuse, detection means (8) make it possible, also with the aid of calculation means (6), to determine the general shape of the pile contained in the pit and to order the grab (12) of the travelling crane (11) for emptying in order to take the refuse from a given place in the pile. The management of a pit according to the process of the invention makes it possible to economise on the work of the travelling crane as well as the presence of a crane operator, which reduces the cost of incineration of the refuse. <IMAGE>

Title: Two-step electrochemical process for coating magnesium
Inventor: BARTAK DUANE E
IPC: C25D11/30
Filed: 1993-02-09
Abstract: A two-step process for the coating of magnesium and its alloys is disclosed. The first step comprises immersing the magnesium workpiece in a first electrochemical solution comprising about 3 to 10 wt-% of a hydroxide and about 5 to 30 wt-% of a fluoride having a pH of at least about 12. By controlling a current density to about 10 to 200 mA/cm<2>, an increasing voltage differential is established between an anode comprising the pretreated article and  a cathode also in contact with the electrolytic solution. Next, the article is immersed in an aqueous electrolytic solution having a pH of at least about 11 and which solution is prepared from components comprising a water soluble hydroxyde, a fluoride source and a water soluble silicate in amounts to result in an addition of about 2 to 15 g of a hydroxide per liter of solution, about 2 to 14 g of a fluoride per liter of solution and about 5 to 40 g of a silicate per liter of solution. Again, by controlling the current density to about 5 to 100 mA/cm<2>, an increasing voltage differential of at least about 150 volts is established between an anode comprising the pretreated article and a cathode also in contact with the electrolytic solution. This process results in a superior coating which has increased abrasion and corrosion resistance.
