Abstract: The invention proposes a deactivating element (1) for a valve train of an internal combustion engine. The deactivating element (1) comprises a housing (2) and an inner element (4) that is axially displaceable in the bore (3) of the housing (2). According to the invention, the pistons (7) arranged in the inner element (4) for coupling into an annular groove (12) in the housing (2) possess two flattened regions (10, 15) arranged diametrically opposite each other in axial direction of the deactivating element (1). The height of the annular groove (12) is reduced by a measure of a height of the second, additional flattened region (15). Due to the reduction of height of the annular groove (12), its volume is also reduced.     This results in advantages activation and deactivation times.

IPC: D21C9/147
Filed: 2005-09-05
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the improved oxygen delignification of cellulose pulp with a medium consistency of 8-16 %. The fraction of dissolved oxygen can be maintained at a high level throughout the process by the use of high pressure, greater than 15.0 bar, and by repeated agitative mixing while maintaining the high pressure, such that as large a fraction as just over 20%  of the total oxygen added is dissolved in the fluid phase, and such that the amount of oxygen in the fluid phase is maintained at a high level throughout the complete high pressure section. This means that the amount of oxygen that is dissolved in the fluid phase and that penetrates the cellulose fibres can be maintained at an optimal high level throughout the process for improved delignification of the cellulose.

Inventor: USHER PERNILLE AUTZEN
IPC: A61K39/395
Filed: 2005-03-30
Abstract: Disclosed is a method for improving cancer therapy that relies on induction of apoptosis in malignant cells. It has been found that docking of protease inhibitors PAI-1 and TIMP-1 renders malignant cells expressing these inhibitors more sensitive to apoptosis, whereas non~-malignant cells do not change their sensitivity to apoptosis induction. It is therefore possible to increase the effect of various anti-cancer treatments in a rational manner and to predict whether or not an apoptosis-inducing cancer treatment will be effective in a patient or not. The invention also provides for methods of identifying agents that inhibit the apoptosis sensitivity modulating effects of protease inhibitors and to methods of identifying anti-cancer compounds that are not dependent on an apoptosis inducing mechanism which can be modulated by protease inhibitors.

Title: Airfoil prognosis for turbine engines
Inventor: TULPULE SHARAYU
IPC: F02C9/00
Filed: 2007-02-02
Abstract: A method and control for predicting the remaining useful life of an airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes the steps of monitoring conditions of the blade such as flutter, leaning, etc. A measured amount of deflection of the airfoil is compared to tabulated data to predict an expected crack length which is likely causing the deflection, etc. Once a predicted crack length has been identified, the amount of accumulated damage to the airfoil at the crack is monitored and stored. The amount of useful life for the blade can be predicted by compiling the accumulated damage over time. The useful life remaining can be displayed such that flight plans or maintenance schedules for the aircraft can be modified as appropriate.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for precorrecting a constant envelope input signal. A phase precorrection component generates a precorrected input signal by applying a phase precorrection to the input signal. The applied phase correction alters an associated phase of the input signal without applying amplitude modulation to the signal. A linear distortion source applies amplitude distortion and phase distortion to the precorrected input signal. The applied phase correction mitigates the phase distortion applied by the linear distortion source.

Title: Evanescent wave multimode optical waveguide and sensor with high mode coupling
Inventor: FOUGERES ANDRE
IPC: G02B6/032
Filed: 2007-06-04
Abstract: There is provided an evanescent wave multimode optical waveguide sensitive to a chemical species or to a physical parameter. The optical waveguide comprises a core and a cladding having a cladding refractive index lower than that of the core for guiding light to be propagated in the optical waveguide. The cladding defines with the core an optical waveguide providing mode coupling. A chemical indicator is provided in the cladding for causing a variation of the optical absorption of the cladding as a function of the chemical species or the physical parameter. The cladding is interrogated by the evanescent wave of the propagated light. The mode coupling causes unabsorbed light power to be redistributed among the multiple modes while light propagates along the optical waveguide.

Abstract: A compact catalytic reactor for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (50) comprises a reactor module (70) defining a multiplicity of first and second flow channels arranged alternately, for carrying a gas mixture, and a coolant respectively.  A removable gas-permeable catalyst structure (82) with a substrate for example of metal foil is provided in each flow channel in which the synthesis reaction is to occur. The reactor module (70) is enclosed within a pressure vessel (90), the pressure within the pressure vessel being arranged to be at a pressure substantially that of the high pressure reacting gas mixture.  Consequently all the flow channels within the module are either at the pressure of their surroundings, or are under compression; no parts are under tension. This simplifies the design of the module, and increases the proportion of reactor volume which can be occupied by the catalyst.
