Abstract: A multi-dimensional processing and display system is used with a sonar tracking system to monitor ocean-going vessels. The system arranges data in a three-dimensional matrix, which is then reformatted into a two-dimensional matrix. The two-dimensional matrix is decomposed into singular vectors and singular values. Certain data elements in the two-dimensional matrix are enhanced or diminished by modifying selected angular values. A history database is maintained by saving certain of the singular vectors, which is concatenated with the two-dimensional matrix. An enhanced two-dimensional matrix is generated by multiplying the two-dimensional concatenated matrix by the modified singular values and the singular vectors. After data enhancement, the two-dimensional enhanced matrix is reformatted back into a three-dimensional matrix. All or portions of the enhanced three-dimensional matrix can then be displayed.

Abstract: The cooking of potato chips in fryers is expensive, causes pollution and has drawbacks from the nutritional point of view. In order to avoid these disadvantages, cooking devices have been proposed in which the chips are cooked by radiant heat or in a stream of air. The results have not yet proved satisfactory. A chip-cooking device is therefore proposed which is fitted with air-directing devices (8, 26, 33) which circulate the air past the heater (11), then parallel to the longitudinal axis of a basket (2), towards the apertures in the basket (2), radially through the apertures, and back, parallel to the longitudinal axis of the basket (2), to the fan.

Abstract: Fibre materials can be modified by treating them at a temperature between 60 and 230 DEG C with an aqueous, alkaline solution of hetero-cycloaliphatic compounds which contain at least one primary, secondary or tertiary amino group or quaternary ammonium group and in which the hetero moiety in the cycle is a carbonic ester radical of the formula -O-CO-O- or a carbamic acid radical of the formula -O-CO-NH-. The modified fibre material has the property of being dyeable using low-electrolyte or completely electrolyte-free and/or low-alkali or completely alkali-free solutions of water-soluble, anionic textile dyes. A dyeing process carried out in that way has the advantage, in particular for fibre-reactive dyes, that there is no need to fix the dyes under alkaline conditions.
