Abstract: A pair of elongated cylindrical members are constructed with first and second collars extending axially beyond their adjoining ends. The first and second collars have adjoining indentations and projections at their end edges which are adapted to interlock with one another so as to prevent rotation of the two elongated members with respect to one another. A coupler is removably fitted over the exterior of the first and second collars and holds them together against axial movement with respect to one another. The collars are each welded to the axial ends of the first and second cylindrical members.

Abstract: To provide a digital servo control system in which the number of bits required in calculation (dynamic range) does not depend on the amplitude of a target value, state variables of a plant 30 are inputted to an inverse system 34 having an opposite characteristic to an internal model 32 and output of the inverse system 34 is inputted to the internal model 32. If the state variables of the plant 30 cannot be directly observed, a state estimator 40 is used. In that case, the inverse system 34 receives input and output of the plant 30 and provides output thereof to the state estimator 40. Input of the internal model 32 may be inputted to the state estimator 40 instead of inputting the input of the plant 30 to the inverse system 34.

Abstract: Circuit de mesure de débit pour débitmètre comprenant une ligne de débit de fluide possédant une jonction ou réservoir amont où le débit de fluide se trouve divisé en un flux d'entrée vers un appareil de mesure fluidique et un flux d'entrée vers une résistance de dérivation laminaire, et une jonction ou réservoir où un flux de sortie provenant de l'appareil de mesure fluidique et un flux de sortie provenant de la résistance de dérivation sont recombinés. Les caractéristiques de fonctionnement combinées des jonctions (si elles sont présentes) et de la résistance de dérivation sont sélectionnées et adaptées aux caractéristiques de fonctionnement requises du débitmètre, de telle sorte que l'importance relative des deux flux varie dans la plage de fonctionnement requise. Pour un débit élevé, au maximum de la plage de débit requise, la plus grande proportion de fluide passe à travers la résistance de dérivation, alors que pour un faible débit, la plus grande proportion du fluide passe à travers l'appareil de mesure fluidique. L'invention concerne également un débitmètre équipé d'un appareil de mesure fluidique (4) destiné à être placé parallèlement à une résistance de dérivation de débit laminaire (5).

Abstract: The sequences encoding two isoforms of human cellular retinoic acid binding proteins, CRABP-I and CRABP-II, have been cloned and sequenced and are set forth with their corresponding amino acid sequences in SEQ ID NOS. 1-4. The indentification of human CRABP nucleic and amino acid sequences provides the basis for the construction of recombinant human CRABP vectors and expression constructs. Human CRABP can also be synthesized or produced ex vivo, e.g. in bacterial or other production systems. Ligand binding assays, including recombinant and chimeric receptor reporter assays, and direct and competition hybridization assays employing the human CRABP sequences herein described can be used to test drugs for retinoic induction and tissue specificity for pathologies in which retinoids are implicated. Immunoassays utilizing antibodies or binding fragments produced to human CRABP can also be used to test patient tissues for the presence and levels of CRABP for diagnosis and to monitor treatment. The indentification of the nucleic and amino acids sequences for human CRABP-I and CRABP-II also contributes to the elucidation of the function and interaction of the retinoid-binding proteins. The CRABP-II gene, isolated from a human placenta genomic library, spans 6 kilobases and includes 4 exons. One major transcription initiation site was mapped to an A residue 137 nucleotides upstream of the ATG initiation codon. CRABP-II mRNA was rapidly induced within 2-6 hours in culture by retinoic acid, primarily due to an increased rate of transcription which required on-going synthesis. The human CRABP-II gene is thus apparently transcriptionally regulated by a newly synthesized regulator protein. Once the CRABP-II is produced, message stabilization may provide means by which elevated CRABP-II in mRNA is maintained.
