Title: Coding of transform coefficients for video coding
Inventor: SOLE ROJALS JOEL
IPC: H04N19/61
Filed: 2015-10-28
Granted: 2017-08-24
Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for coding transform coefficients associated with a block of residual video data in a video coding process. Aspects of this disclosure include the selection of a scan order for both significance map coding and level coding, as well as the selection of contexts for entropy coding consistent with the selected scan order. This disclosure proposes a harmonization of the scan order to code both the significance map of the transform coefficients as well as to code the levels of the transform coefficient. It is proposed that the scan order for the significance map should be in the inverse direction (i.e., from the higher frequencies to the lower frequencies). This disclosure also proposes that transform coefficients be scanned in subsets as opposed to fixed subblocks. In particular, transform coefficients are scanned in a subset consisting of a number of consecutive coefficients according to the scan order.

Title: Buoyant turret mooring with porous turret cage
Inventor: CARRICO TODD VINCENT
IPC: B63B21/50
Filed: 2015-05-01
Granted: 2018-07-12
Abstract: A disconnectable buoyant turret mooring system for an FPSO is vulnerable to damage from collisions between the buoy and the buoy turret cage during mating and de-mating operations. It is therefore desirable that the buoy separate quickly from the turret of the FPSO vessel during a disconnect operation. A buoy turret cage is provided with a certain degree of porosity that allows a flow of seawater from the outside of the receptor to the inner surface of the receptor. Introducing water in this way relieves the suction forces and allows for a quicker separation of the buoy from the turret of the FPSO vessel, minimizing the time during which an uncontrolled collision between the buoy and the FPSO vessel is most likely. Filling a portion of the turret above the mooring buoy with water prior to releasing the buoy also decreases the separation time.

Abstract: Contacts of a relay (1500) may glue together during operation. This state may be measured and a controller (1100) may issue a pulse width- modulated signal at a certain duty cycle and frequency in order to vibrate the relay contacts to make them open again. Once this is the case, the process is stopped. This process may be repeated a certain number of times, and if success- fully degluing is not possible, a notification may be generated (1160). Also after a certain number of degluing cycles, a signal may be generated to indicate replacement of the relay (1500).
