Abstract: The dictates of production mean that the access times of semiconductor memories are subject to fluctuations, even given identical technological parameters. The fluctuations lead to a proportion of slow memory chips. The access time is shortened by raising the internal supply voltage of the slower semiconductor memories by an absolute value which is dependent on the respective semiconductor memory. The method is employed in semiconductor memories, in particular in dynamic semiconductor memories.

Abstract: An unlocked self-loading pistol and a conversion kit for modifying a locked self-loading pistol adapted for firing normal and powerful cartridges into an unlocked self-loading pistol capable of firing weak cartridges as well as normal and powerful cartridges is disclosed. The unlocked self-loading pistol includes a return spring which is closely surrounded on the outside by a sleeve composed of an elastomer material. The length of the elastomer sleeve corresponds approximately to the length of the compressed return spring. The sleeve absorbs a part of the movement energy of the breech and passes it on into the grip. The conversion kit can be used to convert a locked self-loading pistol into an unlocked self-loading pistol as stated above and vice versa. The disclosed conversion kit includes: an alternate barrel which does not come into locked engagement with the breech, the abovementioned elastomer sleeve, and, optionally, a substitute return spring. The locked self-loading pistol and the conversion kit together form a weapon system which can be used to assemble a locked self-loading pistol or an unlocked self-loading pistol, as desired. The unlocked self-loading pistol can fire very lightly filled ammunition and normally filled ammunition without malfunction, and additionally ensures that the breech will withstand the firing of heavily filled ammunition.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for recording ultrasound images of a moving object is disclosed. The apparatus includes an ultrasound transmitter, an ultrasound receiver, and an image processor. At least one of the ultrasound transmitter and receiver is moved in relation to an object. Images of the object are acquired, and a movement state of the object is determined and classified into one of two movement states. Based on the movement state of the object, images are either not acquired, or not processed. If the image of the object is not processed, the image processor filters out the images which were acquired during a movement state of the object when the movement is high. The image processor then assembles the images and displays the assembled images.

Abstract: An artificial line, particularly an artificial electric line, and specifically an artificial line having a constant group delay in a wide frequency range (octave bandwidths). The artificial line comprises two identical inductors of the magnitude L connected in series and having a mutual inductance M, and a capacitor of the magnitude C1 over the inductors and a shunt capacitor C2 to earth. The element values as a function of the cut-off frequency fc and the characteristic impedance Z0 are selected according to specific equations. The artificial line can then be realized as a continuously tunable artificial line or as a self-switched artificial line. The two types of artificial lines can also be cascade-coupled.

Abstract: The invention relates to a biofeedback method, whereby a biosignal that is continuously measured on the body of an individual user, e.g. heart rate, skin resistance, muscular tension, is optically or acoustically fed back to said user in order to achieve individual stress relief at will in competitive situations. Initially, the individual's ability to achieve instantaneous stress relief is measured, evaluated according to speed and stored. The competitive situation and modification thereof in relation to the state of stress/stress relief is displayed to at least one user. The inventive method can be used, for instance, in competitive sports training or in stress prevention.

Abstract: A broadband diffractive diffuser contains at least three levels, with approximately a phase shift of  pi  between at least two of the at least three levels. Such a diffuser provides light with more than two phasor vectors at the zero order. The presence of the more than two phasor vectors reduces the zero order diffraction efficiency at non-design wavelength, increasing the usefulness of the diffuser at wavelengths other than the design wavelength. Preferably, the diffractive diffuser includes a plurality of regions, approximately 50% of an area of the plurality of regions presenting a phase shift of  pi  at a design wavelength, approximately 25% of the area of the plurality of regions presenting a phase shift of 2 pi  at the design wavelength, and approximately 25% of the area of the plurality of regions presenting a phase shift of 0 at the design wavelength. Such a diffractive diffuser may be formed by logical operations between two diffractive diffuser patterns, by adding two diffractive diffuser patterns, or by pixel-by-pixel scanning.

Abstract: The invention relates to a quick switching hydraulic valve (7, 8) which opens or can be kept closed using an electric signal of low energy and which can switch very quickly with large passage. Regarding the known valves the switching valve according to the invention has the advantage that a tight embodiment with a very simple construction is possible and that spontaneous opening or spontaneous closing cannot occur in actual circumstances. Additionally the switching as regards timing is less critical and leakage via the controlling auxiliary valves (1, 2) or via internal leakage connections does not occur.
