Abstract: Disclosed is a method of making a huge elongated space of square or rectangular cross section under the ground. The outer shell of the huge elongated space is built in the form of integral arrangement of lateral shell-units having shielded passages therein. Such a huge underground space can be made without requiring any large-scale equipments on the ground. The huge outer shell can be made with accuracy and efficiency by skiving and jointing adjacent parallel lateral shell-units and by using selected lateral passages of shell-units to discharge the soil or mud removed in making the underground space. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Methods of making sustained release bactericidal cannulas or catheters through which aqueous biological fluids can pass. The bactericidal cannula for catheter including a tube having an inner surface, defining and interior lumen, and an outer surface. The tube has a polymeric matrix and antibacterial agent residing within at least a portion of the polymeric matrix. The polymeric matrix includes cured silicon rubber and the antibacterial agent is a finely divided nitrofuran compound which is soluble in water and effective to prevent proliferation of certain bacteria in an otherwise growth supporting aqueous environment when dissolved in the aqueous environment to the limit of its solubility therein at 37 DEG  C. The solubility of the nitrofuran compound is about 0.2% by weight or less at a pH of about 6 and a temperature of about 25 DEG  C. A portion of the polymeric matrix proximate the outer surface includes an amount of from about 10 to about 60% by weight of the nitrofuran compound and the amount of the nitrofuran compound and the solubility thereof cooperate to provide a potential for a sustained release diffusion thereof for a period of not less than about three weeks during normal use of the cannula within the human body.

Abstract: Information recording/reproducing apparatus and method by use of probe electrodes are disclosed. In this method, information to be recorded on a recording medium is encoded. The encoded information is distributed to a plurality of probe electrodes. The plurality of probe electrodes are driven on the basis of the distributed information so as to record the information on the recording medium. In reproduction, the information recorded on the recording medium is read out from the recording medium by use of the plurality of probe electrodes. The information read out from the recording medium is stored by use of the plurality of probe electrodes. The stored information is decoded to reproduce the information recorded on the recording medium. The encoding is performed by changing the information to be recorded to information added with an error correction code. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A torque control device in the form of a brake (10) includes a number of pairs of actuators (18) located on either side of a friction disc by spacers (120) having tear-shaped cross-sections. The actuator pads (32) are removable and held by a spring (80) loaded locking pin (70) in a hole (68) of a backing plate (62) for the pads. A notch formed in the pad and backing plate engages a rail (66) extending from the actuator to prevent rotation about the pin. The friction disc includes long an short upright fins (42, 43) equally spaced between the component discs (40, 41). The fins are free of circumferential interconnections to allow air to pass radially in between. This allows heat energy generated during engagement in clutches or brakes to be efficiently transferred. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A failsafe avionics interface unit serves as a protocol converter system for translating data for control purposes from a digital communication bus to an analog control channel as an upgrade or interface to an existing analog control system. The avionics interface unit includes digital interface bus logic, a digital data processor module, an analog interface, and a mode selection circuit. Data communicated over the digital interface bus is periodically translated into equivalent analog control signals. For safety purposes, the avionics interface unit ensures the integrity of the system by repetitively looping back or wrapping the digital equivalents of the analog output signals and comparing them to commanded digital control values. The protocol converter system additionally monitors communications over the digital data bus for data continuity. If the difference between a wrapped digital equivalent of an analog output signal and an expected value exceeds tolerable limits or if communication fails, the system disconnects its interface from control using redundant software and hardware and returns control to the analog control system.

The voice message is converted into a digital voice file which is stored on the shared memory device corresponding to the intended recipient's mailbox. Thereby, one mailbox can contain both voice and text messages. The same message handling mechanism is used for handling both voice and text messages. A list of the messages currently stored for each mailbox can be pulled for display by their respective terminals. A selected voice message may be selected for playback over the phone. Likewise, a text message may be selected for display by the terminal. Call answering and remote playback functions are also provided. <IMAGE>
