Abstract: A method of producing clad superconductive oxide wire (10), tape and the like is disclosed. The method comprises forming an intermediate body by surrounding a quantity of the oxide powder (e.g., Ba₂YCu₃O 6.9)  with an appropriate cladding material (typically normal metal), reducing the cross section of the intermediate body by an appropriate technique (e.g., drawing or rolling), and heat treating the elongated body such that substantial sintering of the powder results, such that, after completion of the heat treatment, the sintered oxide (11) has a composition that is associated with superconductivity in unclad bulk samples of the oxide, and such that the body manifests superconductivity at a temperature above about 77K. These conditions require that at least the portion of the cladding that is in contact with the oxide powder is substantially inert with respect to oxygen and the oxide under the conditions of the heat treatment, and that at least a portion of the oxide is in contact with an effective concentration of oxygen during at least a part of the heat treatment such that the oxide powder can take up oxygen. Silver is the currently preferred inert normal metal. Exemplarily, Ag can be used to provide a diffusion barrier (13), with other normal metal (e.g., Ni (14) and Cu (15)) surrounding the diffusion barrier, or the cladding can consist substantially of Ag. Various techniques for preventing oxygen loss and/or restoring lost oxygen from the powder are disclosed. Advantageously the elongated body is appropriately shaped (e.g., wound into a helical coil) prior to completion of the heat treatment. Elongate bodies produced according to the invention can advantageously be used as superconductive magnets, and in a variety of other apparatus and systems.

Abstract: A musical tone signal generating apparatus provides at least a waveform memory (2) which stores a plurality of fundamental waveform data based on three-dimensional coordinate address system having three coordinate axes to which respective musical tone control parameters are assigned respectively. The desirable fundamental waveform data is read out at an address corresponding to a coordinate position determined by selecting desirable musical tone control parameters. Then, an interpolation operation is carried out on the fundamental waveform data which are sequentially read out so that an interpolated musical tone waveform signal is formed. The waveform of the interpolated musical tone waveform signal is similar to and intermediate to the waveforms of the fundamental waveform data to be synthesized. Thus, the interpolated musical tone waveform signal is converted into a musical tone signal, by which corresponding musical tone is to be sounded.

Abstract: A foot and ankle supporting and orienting extension for an external fixation unit with pins driven into the tibia of a patient has a coupling member which can be separably connected to a pin holder of a fixation unit, a variable-length carrier one end of which is articulately connected to the coupling member by a first universal joint and the other end of which is articulately connected to one end of a variabele-length link by a second universal joint, and a cushioned sole-contacting brace which is articulately connected to the other end of the link by a third universal spherical joint. By properly selecting the mutual inclination of the coupling member, carrier, link and brace relative to each other and/or by properly selecting the length of the carrier and/or the link, the patient or another authorized person can move the cushion of the brace to an optimum position relative to the sole of a foot forming part of a leg wherein the tibia is pinned to a fixation unit. This ensures that the foot and the ankle can rest in an optimum orientation. The joints can be locked to prevent articulation of the carrier, coupling member, link and brace relative to each other as soon as the cushion of the brace assumes an optimum position relative to the sole.
