Abstract: In a process to manufacture a roller for use in paper production, the drum core is steel of a grade suitable for welding, onto which a mantle is welded. The final material characteristics are achieved by heat treatment e.g. annealing. The material characteristics determined by the annealing process are toughness, crystalline structure, form stability, internal tension and hardness. The mantle is harder than the core material. The mantle consists of two layers of tungsten carbide. Application of the weld layer is effected under a layer of powder or inert gas. The weld layer is applied as a spiral ribbon or wire. After application the welded mantle hardness is in the Vickers range 530 to 800 HV. Each layer is about 3 mm thick. The welded outer mantle is up to 10 mm thick.

Abstract: In automotive exhaust gas catalysts with a metallic honeycomb composed of corrugated and smooth sheet layers, it is known that the heat capacity and thermal conductivity of the honeycomb can be reduced by perforations in the sheet layers. As a result, the honeycomb heats up more rapidly and the catalytic coating applied on the honeycomb reaches its operating temperature more rapidly. A disadvantage here is the reduction in the support surface area by the perforations in the sheet layers. According to the invention, suitable adjustment of the properties of the coating suspension used for the catalytic coating and of the dimensions of the holes relative to one another allows the holes to be filled permanently with catalyst material. The resulting catalyst has, at the same coating concentration as a catalyst with unperforated sheet layers, a significantly reduced heat capacity and thermal conductivity.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and arrangements that enable uplink timing adjustment in a UTRAN while minimizing the signalling overhead. This is achieved by a solution where the information about the estimated reception time is used by the NB to determine whether the UEs need to be time adjusted on the UL in order to avoid TTI overlapping and thus interference. The estimated reception time of a UE UL signal is compared with an ideal reception time (the reference time) which can be defined based on the overall knowledge of the estimated reception times. If the difference between the estimated and the ideal reception time is larger than a pre-defined threshold value, meaning that the overlapping with some other UEs TTI will be big, a timing adjustment is initiated.

Abstract: A method of identifying femto base station handover targets for user equipment in a wireless communications network, a computer program product and a femto base station gateway are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: storing location history information identifying femto base stations previously visited by user equipment; receiving an indicator from user equipment identifying a detected femto base station as a handover target; and correlating said indicator against said location history information for that user equipment to identify those femto base stations hdving that indicator which have previously been visited by that user equipment as handover candidates. By using information identifying previously visited base stations, the number of potential handover targets can be dramatically reduced which in turn reduces the likelihood of an unsuccessful handover occurring and reduces the number of femto base stations which need to be unnecessarily prepared.
