Abstract: In an alpine ski (1) comprising a body (2) which is composed of several elements and has on its underside a gliding surface (3) and on its upper side (7) a binding mounting area (8), and includes at least one upper chord element (4) subjected primarily to pressure loads and at least one lower chord element (5) subjected to tensile loads, the upper chord element (4) has in the middle region of the ski the shape of a flat, upwardly curved arc (6) extending in the longitudinal direction of the ski and spanning the lower chord element (5). The arc (6) of the upper chord element (4) is adapted to deflect in the direction of the lower chord element (5) in dependence upon the load exerted by the binding and is supported in the end regions of the ski in such a way that a displacement of the ends of the upper chord element (5) resulting from the deflection of the arc (6) increases the load carrying share of the end regions of the ski.

Abstract: A method for the manufacture of a cylinder liner for combustion engines and a cylinder liner which can be manufactured by the method according to the invention are disclosed. The method comprises a thermal spray-deposition, such as by an arc spray-deposition process, of a wearing layer on a supporting body and a spray-deposition of a protective or connecting layer on the wearing layer. The wearing layer comprises a hypereutectic aluminum-silicon alloy and the protective or connecting layer comprises a hypoeutectic aluminum-silicon alloy. A melt retarder of iron, for example, may be interposed between these two layers. The melt retarder comprises a higher melting temperature than the two aluminum-silicon alloys, thereby preventing the wearing layer from partially melting when the cylinder liner is cast into a cylinder bore.

Abstract: Optical mirror elements for high bandwidth free space optical communication are produced by an electroforming replication technique. Onto the precision surface of a mandrel that is a negative of the required optical surface a layer of metal is deposited forming an exact copy of the mandrel surface and is then separated to form the required optical element. During the production process the mandrel may be coated with a variety of materials that are then separated together with the electrofomed optical element during the release step to form a monolithic structure that includes a reflective coating. The mandrel remains unchanged by the process and can then be re-used. The high cost of conventional polishing techniques is therefore limited to the production of the mandrel. The replication process results in the production of low cost optical elements suitable for high bandwidth free space optical data transmission. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A graphics system comprising a rendering engine, a sample buffer and a filtering engine. The rendering engine receives graphics primitives, generates sample positions, computes a depth value and color values for each sample position interior to each primitive. The blur value is assigned to each sample based on its depth value relative to an estimate of the concentration depth of the viewer. The per-sample data are stored in the sample buffer. The filtering engine reads samples in a neighborhood of a current filter position, and filters the samples to generate a video output pixel which is transmitted to a display device. The filtering engine applies to each sample in the neighborhood a corresponding filter function. The filter function has a spatial cutoff frequency determined by the sample's blur value.
