Patent DE-69118645-T2 (DE)

Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic system for measuring fluid flow velocities through Doppler techniques is provided which eliminates the effects of tissue motion from fluid flow velocity information. Doppler information signals are discriminated to determine the presence of signal components resulting from moving tissue, which signal components are located at frequencies of a Doppler spectrum other than the predetermined frequency location of stationary tissue signals. The tissue motion signal components present are shifted to the predetermined frequency location and removed by high pass filtering the Doppler signals. The remaining signals are then shifted back to their original frequency location and transmitted to a Doppler velocity estimator for further processing of the fluid flow velocity information and ultimate display of the information. To overcome problems of Doppler frequency inaccuracies at discrete spatial positions, the Doppler signals from a plurality of neighbouring spatial locations are examined in the aggregate to determine the frequency location of tissue motion signal components. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Process for the production of natural vanilla extract, consisting in processing crushed green vanilla pods by means of an enzymatic system capable of destroying plant cell membrane systems and hydrolyzing glycosylic precursors of volatile compounds. Preferably, the enzymatic system consists of one or more enzymes having a gloucosidase activity, the number of glucosidase units per gram of green vanilla pods being between 20 and 500 units. The process substantially reduces the time for transforming the aromatic precursors of the pod, especially glucovanillin into vanillin with, moreover, an excellent yield. The present invention also concerns natural vanilla extract obtained by said process.

Abstract: Titanium based metal matrix composites reinforced with ceramic particulate are well known, based on a blend of titanium alloy powders with ceramic powders, e.g., aluminum oxide powders, utilizing a low energy ball milling process, followed by cold compacting and sintering to produce an appropriate composite. This prior art process is disadvantaged from the point of view that there are virtually no particles in the blend below the micrometer size range, which lack has a deleterious effect on the subsequent processing of the composite. This problem has been overcome by utilizing dry high energy intensive milling in the process, which has the effect of providing the necessary number of small particles below the micrometer size range as well as enhancing the reactivity of different particles with one another. In order to produce a titanium base alloy alumina metal matrix composite, titanium dioxide powder is blended with aluminum powder and subjected to dry high energy intensive milling until the separate particle phases achieve a size of 500 nanometers maximum. The intermediate powder product is then heated to form the titanium alloy/amumina metal matrix composite in which the ceramic particles have an average diameter of no more than 3 mu, and the oxide consists of more than 10% and less than 60% by volume fraction of the total composite. The composites have extensive application to tough and strong engineering alloys.
