Patent EP-1374399-A1 (EP)
Inventor: EKSTRAND PER
IPC: G10L25/00
Filed: 2002-03-28
Abstract: The present invention proposes a new method and apparatus for the improvement of digital filterbanks, by a complex extension of cosine-modulated digital filterbanks. The invention employs complex-exponential-modulation of a low-pass prototype filter and new methods for optimizing the characteristics of this filter. The invention substantially reduces artifacts due to aliasing emerging from independent modifications of subband signals, for example when using a filterbank as an spectral equalizer. The invention is preferably implemented in software, running on a standard PC or a digital signal processor (DSP), but can also be hardcoded on a custom chip. The invention offers essential improvements for various types of digital equalizers, adaptive filters, multiband companders and spectral envelope adjusting filterbanks used in high frequency reconstruction (HFR) systems.

Abstract: A guideway structure for the high-speed track-bound transportation is
composed of the lower-layer main load-bearing girders and the guideway-surface
structure elements. The structural elements are connected by the steel elements at
the functional zones and the reinforced concrete plates on the guideway body to
form an integral. The guideway structure has the following special features:
   (1) The reinforced concrete plate girders are elements of small-size type.
Many of the reinforced concrete plate girders are longitudinally disposed on the
lower-layer main load-bearing girders along the guideway line; Between two
adjacent reinforced concrete plate girders is reserved a gap of certain width for
expansion and contraction;   (2) The said connection-mechanism is composed of the supporting steel
girders, the weld nails, the high strength bolts and the steel bearing plates. The
supporting steel girders are connected with the lower-layer main load-bearing
girder by the high strength bolts, the steel bearing plates and the connecting
steel plates; The weld nails are on the top of the supporting steel girder and
deeply inserted into their respective post-poured holes on the reinforced
concrete plate girder; The connection will be completed by pouring concrete
on-site after the reinforced concrete plate girder has been accurately positioned;   (3) In the case of double-track guideway, between the lateral surfaces of
both lower-layer main load-bearing girders are disposed cross beams for
supporting purposes.    
     The invention is one of the guideway structures especially suitable for the
guideway structure across a river of medium- or small-width.

Abstract: In a human or animal organ or other region of interest, specific objects, such as liver metastases and brain lesions, serve as indicators, or biomarkers, of disease. In a three-dimensional image of the organ, the biomarkers are identified and quantified. Multiple three-dimensional images can be taken over time, in which the biomarkers can be tracked over time. Statistical segmentation techniques are used to identify the biomarker in a first image and to carry the identification over to the remaining images.

Inventor: MORIN BRIAN G
IPC: C08K5/098
Filed: 2002-05-15
Abstract: This invention relates to improvements in heat and moisture-shrink problems in polypropylene fibers. Such fibers require the presence of compounds that quickly and effectively provide rigidity to the fiber after heat-setting. These compounds include structures that nucleate polymer crystals within polypropylene after exposure to sufficient heat to melt the polymer and allowing the melt to cool. The compounds must nucleate polymer crystals at higher temperatures than the polypropylene without the nucleating agent during cooling. Thus, the "rigidifying" nucleator compounds provide nucleation sites for polypropylene crystal growth. After drawing the nucleated composition into fiber form (11), the fiber is exposed to sufficient heat to grow the crystalline network (26), thus holding the fiber in a desired position. The preferred "rigidifying" compounds include dibenzylidene sorbitol based compounds, as well as less preferred compounds, such as sodium benzoate, certain sodium and lithium phosphate salts (such as sodium 2,2'-methylene-bis-(4,6-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphate).

Abstract: The present invention features a coke drum de-heading system (10) without having to physically remove the head units. This is accomplished using a specially designed dual seated, linear motion goggle blind gate valve, or de-header valve (12), that is removably coupled to and seals against the flanged (42) portion of a coke drum (18) much the same way a conventional head unit would be attached. The de-header valve (12) is equipped with, among other things, a sliding blind (122) that is contained and capable of moving within an upper (34) and a lower (38) seat, wherein one of such seats is a floating dynamic, live loaded seat that is capable of automatic adjustment through one or more loading zones so as to seal the blind (122) between the upper (34) and lower (38) seats. The movement of the sliding blind (122) serves to open and close the de-header valve (12), wherein in a closed position, the de-header valve (12) is prepared to receive the resid byproduct feed from the refinery process used to manufacture coke (4). Once the drum (18) is full, the de-header valve (12) may be actuated (opened), wherein the coke (4) that has accumulated on the blind (106) is sheared by the upper (34) and lower (38) seats, thus de-heading the coke drum (18) and facilitating the removal of coke (4) using methods commonly known in the art.
