Abstract: Method for preparing melamine from urea via a high-pressure process in which solid melamine is obtained by transferring the melamine melt to an expansion vessel where the melamine melt is cooled by incorporated ammonia. Excess ammonia gas is added to the melamine melt to produce a gas/liquid mixture having a mass ratio of at least 0.01. This two-phase mixture is then sprayed via a spraying means into an expansion vessel, the expansion vessel having an ammonia environment with a reduced ammonia pressure. The melamine melt is cooled and solidified by the expansion and evaporation of the incorporated ammonia to form melamine powder. The melamine melt is thereby directly converted into a melamine powder after which the melamine powder is cooled further and the ammonia pressure is released.

Abstract: A block matching motion estimation algorithm uses reduced precision data when comparing blocks in the pictures to be compressed with blocks in a reference picture. This yields a plurality of best match candidates (66). The average (70) of the best match candidates (66), excluding those candidates (68) which fall outside a predetermined cluster boundary (74), is determined and then a second search is performed focused on this average (70). In this way, the amount of hardware for the block matching algorithm is decreased and the speed of its operation is enhanced.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un réseau d'électrodes conçu pour être implanté dans l'extrémité basale de la rampe tympanique de la cochlée humaine. Selon un premier mode de réalisation, le réseau d'électrodes (10) est constitué d'un support allongé et mince (12) de 6 à 8 mm. de long. Entre quatre et huit contacts d'électrode espacés (14) sont placés le long d'un des côtés plats du support, chacun étant connecté à un câble (22) incrusté dans le support. Les câbles sortent d'une extrémité proximale du support via un faisceau de câbles qui est connecté, à son tour, à un stimulateur cochléaire implantable (ICS) ou à un générateur d'impulsions équivalent. Le réseau d'électrodes (10) est inséré dans la partie relativement droite de l'extrémité basale de la rampe tympanique de la cochlée à travers une petite fente (42) ménagée dans la membrane de la fenêtre ronde qui sépare la cochlée de l'oreille moyenne. La fente est orientée de telle sorte que les contacts d'électrodes sont placés face à la paroi de la columelle (32). L'extrémité proximale du support peut présenter des ailettes (16) ou des dents maintenant le réseau d'électrodes dans la position souhaitée au sein de l'extrémité basale de la cochlée. De telles dents ou ailettes facilitent le scellement du support contre l'ouverture de la fente pour éviter que les liquides ne s'échappent de la cochlée. Ce dernier est rempli d'un fluide qui active les cellules ciliées alors que des ondes fluidiques se forment par le mouvement de la membrane. La stimulation électrique est uniquement acheminée par l'extrémité basale de la cochlée via le réseau d'électrodes pour assurer l'écoute de sons haute fréquence. Une écoute normale (activation des cellules ciliées à travers le mouvement fluidique) se produit au niveau de régions supérieure et moyenne de la cochlée permettant de capter les sons basse fréquence. Selon un second mode de réalisation, on obtient l'électrode (100) en réalisant une petite bille (120) d'environ 0,4 mm de diamètre sur l'extrémité d'un câble souple de platine/iridium (Pt/Ir) très fin (140). Au niveau de l'extrémité proximale du câble, un connecteur adapté (540) assure la connexion/déconnexion du câble à un générateur d'impulsions (500).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing pipe bends from straight, spirally welded pipes. Said pipes are produced from steel band rolls that are welded together by a double-sided butt seam consisting of a filler material. The welding seam is configured in such a way that it exceeds the inner and/or outer surface of the pipe by max. 2 mm and in such a way that the tangent with its cross-section at the transition point between the welding seam and the base material of the pipe forms an angle of max. 45<o> with the pipe surface. Having been welded in this way, the pipe is then bent in the electro-induction bending machine with a water spray, at a pipe deforming temperature T that is selected from a field of overlap of the following temperature intervals: TGM = [AC3GM - (30 to 80<o>C)] and TZM = [AC3ZM - (30 to 80<o>C)], AC3GM meaning the temperature AC3 of the basic steel material and AC3ZM meaning the temperature AC3 of the added material, AC3 being given by the following: AC3 = 910 x (203)<1/2> x 30 Mn + 44.7 Si  [<o>C].

Abstract: A simple, biocompatible system and procedure for generating nitric oxide (NO) is described. A mixture of powdered sodium nitrite, ascorbic acid, and maleic acid (or another organic acid of adequate strength) immediately generates nitric oxide (NO) on treatment with water. To slow down the NO generation, one may prepare an ointment from a nonaqueous medium (petrolatum, Vaseline(TM)) and the three powdered ingredients, which on being applied topically on the skin will release NO as water permeates through this medium; alternatively, one may convert the aqueous sodium nitrite solution into a gel with hydroxyethylcellulose (or other gel-forming compound) and combine this gel with another gel obtained from aqueous ascorbic and maleic acids with hydroxyethylcellulose for topical application (on intact skin, burns intra-cavity, burns, intra-cavity, etc.). The two gels may be admixed immediately before use (possibly from a single container with separate chambers and dual nozzle, via pushing or squeezing the two gels through the nozzle), or may be applied in sandwich-like fashion (possibly as a transdermal patch) for further slowing down the delivery of NO.

Title: Process for producing aliphatic polyester
Inventor: TERADO YUJI
IPC: C08G63/16
Filed: 2000-07-10
Abstract: This invention relates to process for producing aliphatic
polyester wherein a crystallized aliphatic polyester prepolymer
formed from an aliphatic dihydric alcohol and an aliphatic
dicarboxylic acid and having a weight-average molecular weight
of 2,000 to 100,000 is caused to undergo solid-phase
polymerization in the presence of a volatile catalyst to make
an aliphatic polyester having a weight-average molecular weight
of 50,000 to 1,000,000. This process is more efficient than any
prior process calling for a complicated step for catalyst
removal, since it enables the removal of the catalyst from the
reaction system during and/or after solid-phase polymerization.
The polyester is comparable in stability to any aliphatic
polyester having any catalyst removed therefrom.
