Patent AT-E429183-T1 (AT)

Abstract: A catheter is provided having a catheter body whose distal end has an anchoring device and a stabilizing device that are adapted to respectively sit in and sit outside of an opening of a tubular region, such as an ostium of a pulmonary vein. A sheath covering the catheter body forms the anchoring device and the stabilizing device. In particular, the anchoring device and/or the stabilizing device comprises a plurality of slits cut into the sheath where the slits create spines. In one embodiment, the sheath is fixed at its distal end to the distal end of the catheter body. The spines of the anchoring device and the stabilizing device are deployed into radial expansion by distal movement of the sheath relative to the catheter body. Upon radial expansion of the anchoring device, the spines of the anchoring device exert pressure against the walls of the tubular region thereby generally anchoring the distal end of the catheter body inside the tubular region against proximal and/or radial movement relative to the tubular region. Upon radial expansion of the spines of the stabilizing assembly, the spines of the stabilizing device exert pressure against the ostium of the tubular region thereby generally stabilizing the distal end of the catheter body against distal and/or radial movement relative to the tubular region. Accordingly, the pressure exerted on the walls of the tubular region by the anchoring device and on the ostium by the stabilizing device minimizes, if not prevents, the distal end of the catheter body against both translational and rotational movement. In particular, the pressure exerted on the ostium of the tubular region by the stabilizing device stabilizes the catheter within the heart for delivery of ablation energy to treat the desired area of the heart. Other embodiments of the catheter are also contemplated, such as those having a telescoping portion extending distally from the distal end of the catheter. As such, the anchoring and stabilizing devices are deployed by proximal movement of a puller wire whose distal end is affixed to the distal end of the telescoping portion.

Abstract: Method and device for the detection of an essentially rectilinear contrast edge (E) in a direction, whereby a periodic sweep (Ω) of global visual angle (Δψ) of the optical sensors, by translation (S) in another direction transverse to the first direction, is carried out. The translation provides a periodic sweep of non-uniform angular speed (ψ) during a part of the period of sweeping and a measurement of a time difference (t) from the signals provided by the sensors (D1, D2), depending on the angular position of the contrast edge (E) with relation to a reference direction (OY12) within the global visual angle (Δψ) from the sweep law (Ω), the reference direction being connected to a specific value for the time difference (t). The above is of application to spatial stabilization of a sight line and the fine following and fixing of an object with at least one contrast edge.

Abstract: A flexible nonwoven mat of polymeric fibers is liquid water transmission resistant and is particularly well suited for use as a prefabricated building construction underlayment. The polymeric fibers may be standard polymeric fibers or sheathed polymeric fibers that have fiber sheaths with a lower softening point temperature than the softening point temperature of the fiber cores. Preferably, the polymeric fibers are spunbond fibers and are bonded together through the application of heat and pressure. Where the fibers are sheathed fibers, interstices of the nonwoven mat are at least partially filled by a portion of the polymeric material of the sheaths that is dispersed into the interstices to reduce the porosity of the mat. In certain embodiments, the polymeric fibers on the top major surface of the mat are coated with a hydrophobic binder coating material, which is overlaid with a water repellant coating material, such as a filled asphalt, modified bitumen, or a non-asphaltic polymeric film, to increase the liquid water impermeability and enhance other physical properties of the mat.

Abstract: The present invention is based on the finding that a sound-reproduction system, which can generate a spatial sound impression in a reproduction environment, can be efficiently and intuitively controlled by means of a graphic user interface when an impulse response associated with a spatial direction with respect to the reproduction environment is graphically represented, and when the possibility is created for a user to change the impulse response graphically so that, based on the user input of a change, the changed impulse response can be graphically represented and the changed graphical representation can be detected, in order to control the sound-reproduction system. Since it is system-theoretically possible to describe all known linear signal processing operations by impulse responses, it is possible, with the inventive graphic user interface, to provide a sound mixer, through a graphical representation, with an intuitive access to sound effects depending on the direction.

Abstract: Solutions to the problem of reversing seismic fault movements are formulated using a model based on elasticity theory, and using finite element and boundary element methods for generating a solution. The solution involves defining slip vectors from known formations in the fault and applying a space constraint restriction to traction values on the fault surface. The method may be applied in either 2D or 3D applications. The method is computationally fast enough to allow interactive fault reversal, and permits experimentation with various unfaulting scenarios so that a geologically acceptable solution is provided.
