Abstract: A method and apparatus for separating a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) from a fixture assembly subsequent to MEA bonding within the fixture assembly involves stabilizing the first fixture of the fixture assembly. The second fixture of the fixture assembly is stabilized. While the second fixture is stabilized, the first fixture is pressurized to cause the first surface of the MEA to separate from the first fixture. While the first fixture is stabilized, the second fixture is pressurized to cause the second surface of the MEA to separate from the second fixture. The second fixture is then moved out of proximity with the first fixture to permit removal of the MEA from the first fixture.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une technique permettant de reconstruire des courants de phase en fonction de mesures d'un courant de bus CC. Des régions ne pouvant être observées d'échantillons de courant de bus CC permettant de reconstruire des courants de phase sont réduites au niveau des dimensions par mise en oeuvre d'une modulation de vecteur spatial biphasé. Les régions ne pouvant être observées peuvent être encore réduites par omission d'insertions de temps mort destinés à des commandes de commutateur quand le courant de sortie est supérieur à un seuil donné. Des vecteurs de commande de tension dans des zones ne pouvant être observées peuvent être formés par deux vecteurs supplémentaires de phase et d'amplitudes différentes, de manière à obtenir un courant de phase réfléchissant le courant de bus CC pouvant être observé. Les vecteurs supplémentaires possèdent la même valeur moyenne de temps combinée que celle du vecteur de commande de tension.

Abstract: A method and system automatically activates a mobile station in a wireless
communications network. The system includes an over the air activation function
(OTAF) processor in the network that initiates an activation process in response to
receiving a registration message from a mobile switching center serving the mobile
station requesting the activation. Each mobile station has a unit of information stored
into it at the time of its manufacture to enable it to request over the air activation. That
unit of information is either the network routing address of the OTAF processor, or
alternately, it is a value that is translatable into that address, either an OTAF ID
number that is the same value for every mobile station or it is a sequentially serialized
dummy value for the mobile identification number (a dummy MIN). When the mobile
station is turned on for the first time in the network, it requests activation over the air
by transmitting to the local mobile switching center a registration order. The
registration order will include one of the three alternative forms of the information unit
described above, either the routing address of the OTAF processor, or the OTAF ID
number, or a dummy MIN.

Abstract: Selon ce procédé et dans l'usine sidérurgique intégrée décrite, au lieu d'utiliser les gaz de cokerie, les gaz du convertisseur et les gaz de tête de hauts fourneaux comme combustibles pour générer de l'énergie ou dans d'autres buts de chauffage, ils sont utilisés de manière plus efficace comme agents chimiques pour réduire directement les minerais de fer, produisant du fer éponge. Le fer éponge est introduit dans les hauts fourneaux, augmentant la production d'acier brut, sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'augmenter la capacité des fours de cokerie et des hauts fourneaux, et sans altérer la qualité de l'acier brut ou, si l'on maintient le taux de production, la consommation spécifique de combustibles fossiles est réduite de manière significative. L'utilisation d'énergie fossile primaire selon l'invention réduit également les émissions spécifiques de CO2 par tonne d'acier brut. L'émission spécifique de CO2 dans les usines intégrées conventionnelles de traitement est d'environ 1,6 tonne de CO2 par tonne d'acier brut.
