Abstract: A method of controlling an engine-operating-characteristic changing device operable
between a first and a second operating state and including a locking device for locking the
changing device in the first operating state in which a compression ratio of an intake air of an
internal combustion engine (e) is maintained at a value higher than that in the second
operating state, the method including steps of determining whether there is a possibility that
the engine-operating-characteristic changing device is locked in the first operating state by
the locking device, where the changing device should not be placed in the first operating
state, and if it is determined that there is the possibility, implementing a preventive operation

Title: Fuel cell
Inventor: HORIGUCHI MUNEHISA
IPC: H01M8/10
Filed: 2002-08-14
Abstract: The present invention is to provide an efficient cooling by supplying
air and cooling water simultaneously while keeping cooling and wetting of a
membrane without having a fuel cell large-sized. A fuel cell includes a
separator 10B between unit cells 10A adjacent to each other. The separator
includes an air pass S1 on a front surface side abutting at least on a cathode of
the unit cell and it includes a cooling space S2 supplied with air and water on
the rear side thereof to cool the unit cell with latent heat of water evaporated
by heat of the unit cell transmitted to the cooling space. Thereby, the unit cell
is cooled via the separator and clogging up of the air pass caused by water
entering is prevented.

Abstract: A method and system for shrinking dilatations of a body, removing excess,
weak or diseased tissue, and strengthening remaining tissues of the lumen walls. A
catheter is disposed near the dilatation and fixed in position by inflatable occlusion
balloons. Body fluids present in the occluded dilatation are evacuated and
treatment fluid is exuded under pressure into the dilatation. Pressure is maintained
by the treatment fluid while energy is applied by the catheter to heat the treatment
fluid, causing the lumen walls to absorb the treatment fluid. Additional energy is
then applied so as to preferentially heat the lumen wall tissues which have
absorbed the treatment fluid, while at the same time treatment fluid is circulated to
cool the inner surface of the lumen walls. The dilatation is occluded, a saline
solution is introduced and absorbed into the lumen-wall tissue in the occluded
region of the dilatation and then heated by application of radio frequency ("RF")
or other energy in order to soften only the lumen-wall tissue of the dilatation, the
dilatation is shrunk by application of a chilled saline solution and a vacuum, and
additional RF or other energy is emitted to ablate, further shrink, and harden only
the lumen-wall tissue of the dilatation, without destroying the inner surface of the
lumen or other tissues of the body beyond the lumen walls, thereby promoting the
growth of epithelial cells.

Abstract: Système qui détermine l'assiette en trois dimensions d'une plate-forme en mouvement à l'aide de signaux émis par deux antennes GPS rapprochées. Ledit système comporte trois gyromètres et trois accéléromètres montés à demeure de manière fixe sur la plate-forme pour aider à déterminer l'assiette. Ledit système applique des signaux provenant d'une première des deux antennes GPS à suffisamment de canaux d'un récepteur GPS destinés à supporter la navigation. Le système applique des signaux provenant de la seconde des deux antennes GPS aux canaux récepteurs restants qui sont destinés à supporter l'interférométrie. Ledit système sélectionne de manière optimale les canaux de navigation et d'interférométrie pour fournir une solution interférométrique de cap. Ce système permet de résoudre l'ambiguïté normalement associée à la solution interférométrique de cap du fait de la présence des deux antennes GPS rapprochées et grâce à l'utilisation de l'interférométrie pour rendre plus précise une estimation grossière de cap à partir d'une solution d'alignement de transfert provenant de mesures GPS et de l'unité de mesure inertielle (UMI). Ledit système permet un écartement rapproché, inférieur au mètre, des deux antennes GPS par fusion de nombreuses mesures interférométriques temporelles qui résultent d'une mémoire d'assiette fournie par la solution temps-historique de l'UMI.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés permettant de compenser les variations de luminosité dans un dispositif à émission de champ. Dans un premier mode de réalisation, ce procédé et ce système permettent de mesurer la luminosité relative des rangs dans un affichage à émission de champ (FED), de stocker des informations représentant la luminosité mesurée dans une table de correction et d'utiliser cette table de correction pour produire une luminosité uniforme dans les rangs de l'affichage en réglant les tensions de rangs et/ou les périodes de mise sous tension des rangs. L'invention concerne également un procédé de mesure spécial permettant des mesures précises du courant dans les rangs. Cette forme de réalisation permet de compenser les variations de luminosité dans les rangs, p. ex. dans les rangs situés à proximité des parois séparatrices. Dans un second mode de réalisation différent, un signal périodique, p. ex. un signal de bruit haute fréquence est ajouté à l'impulsion déterminant la période de mise sous tension du rang, afin de camoufler les variations de luminosité à proximité des parois séparatrices. Dans un troisième mode de réalisation, la zone comprise sous l'impulsion de durée de mise sous tension du rang est réglée de manière à produire une compensation rang par rang de la luminosité en fonction des valeurs de correction stockées dans une table de correction résidente. Dans un quatrième mode de réalisation, une mesure de la luminosité de chaque rang est effectuée, et ces mesures sont compilées dans un profil de données pour l'affichage FED. Ce profil de données est utilisé pour réguler les processus de vieillissement de cathode de manière à corriger les variations de luminosité par une modification physique des caractéristiques des émetteurs dans les rangs.
