Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système et un procédé de factorisation en signaux source indépendants d'un champ (12) d'ondes fusionnées tel qu'un champ d'ondes acoustiques fusionnées. Ce système utilise une matrice de capteurs (18) pour détecter le champ (12) d'ondes fusionnées, et un processeur (20) de signaux pour déterminer les données (38) des signaux source factorisés. Ce système et ce procédé peuvent être appliqués à des prothèses auditives pour permettre à un individu d'écouter sélectivement un autre individu faisant partie d'un groupe d'individus parlant simultanément. Ce système et ce procédé factorisent le champ d'ondes fusionnées en effectuant une prédiction des signaux source et en combinant les signaux source prédits à des valeurs (30) de retard source associées à chacune des sources sonores ou énergétiques de façon à générer des signaux de détection prédits (34). Les valeurs de retard source peuvent être établies sous forme de valeurs prédéterminées ou peuvent être calculées selon un procédé de corrélation croisée. Les signaux de détection prédits sont comparés aux signaux de détection réels émis par chaque capteur de façon à définir un facteur (36) de vérification de prédiction. Les signaux source prédits (28) sont ajustés par un procédé aléatoire qui minimise le facteur de vérification de prédiction. Le réglage et la vérification des signaux sources prédits sont effectués de manière itérative jusqu'à ce que le facteur de vérification de prédiction atteigne une valeur minimum prédéterminée. Les signaux source prédits sont ensuite émis sous forme de signaux source factorisés (38) et peuvent être sélectionnés pour un autre traitement tel que la transmission du signal à l'utilisateur.

Abstract: A solid fuel fed combustor method having a first chamber portion with an inlet feeding a metered amount of a solid fuel to a first burner stage having a first traveling conveyor firebelt. A metered amount of air is introduced in progressively increasing proportions along the length thereof to cause endothermic reduction of the solid fuel. The first stage feeds a second burner stage having a second traveling conveyor firebelt. Air is introduced in a progressively decreasing amount along the length of the second traveling conveyor firebelt to induce exothermic combustion and decomposition of fuel. The amount of air introduced and speed of the conveyors are controlled to minimize the quantity of carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides and other pollutants. Radiative energy generated from fuel traveling on the traveling conveyor firebelts is reflected on fuel traveling on the first firebelt.

Abstract: An oxidation-resistant alloy for use in a high-temperature or thermal cycling environment. The alloy comprises a nickel-based matrix having a solid solution of 19-23% chromium and 3-6% aluminum. A self-healing, thermodynamically stable oxide layer is formed upon a surface of the alloy which is exposed to an oxidizing atmosphere over a range of temperatures for extended periods of time. The oxide layer protects the alloy from the oxidizing atmosphere. Additions of calcium and yttrium are made to the matrix to substantially remove or stabilize oxygen and sulfur dissolved in the molten alloy. These additions result in retention of about 0.005-0.05% of calcium and 0.01-0.06% yttrium in the cast alloy. The matrix further includes about 2-8% iron to inhibit nucleation and growth of a "gamma prime" nickel aluminum intermetallic compound which would otherwise adversely harden the alloy and cause local disturbance of a uniform distribution of aluminum. The alloy has a VHN below about 350.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods for preparing cyclic peptides and peptidomimetic compounds in solution and bound to solid supports, and to cyclic peptide or peptidomimetic libraries for use in drug screening programmes. In particular, the invention relates to a generic strategy for synthesis of cyclic peptides or peptidomimetics that enables the efficient synthesis under mild conditions of a wide variety of desired compounds. Two approaches were evaluated for their improvements in solution and solid phase synthesis of small cyclic peptides: positioning reversible N-amide substituents in the sequence; and applying native ligation chemistry in an intramolecular sense. Systematic investigation of the effects of preorganizing peptides prior to cyclisation by using peptide cyclisation auxiliaries, and developing new linkers and peptide cyclisation auxiliaries to aid cyclic peptide synthesis gives surprising improvements in both yields and purity of products compared to the prior art methods. The combination of these technologies provides a powerful generic approach for the solution and solid phase synthesis of small cyclic peptides. The ring contraction and N-amide substitution technology of the invention provide improved methods for the synthesis of cyclic peptides and peptidomimetics. When used in conjunction with linker strategies, this combination provides solid-phase avenues to cyclic peptides and peptidomimetics.

Abstract: A method of fabricating an article from a blank (12) of material (e.g., aluminum alloy sheet) having anisotropic deformation properties, with tooling (14) which has been designed by predicting flow and deformation of the blank (12) using an analysis which decouples the anisotropic deformation properties of the blank (12). The method calculates the response of a small amount of the blank (12) using crystal plasticity theory. The blank (12) can be represented as a mesh having a plurality of elements. A strain path is predicted for each element using finite element analysis (FEA), and a stress-strain curve is defined for each element by performing a material point simulator (MPS) calculation for each element using its respective strain path. A second FEA is then carried out on the elements using the respective stress-strain curve for each element. The stress-strain curve for each element may be defined by assigning to each element a curve which lies between an upper bound curve and a lower bound curve, using various methods. The computational model requires much less CPU time compared to prior art methods.

Abstract: An improved fixed positionable toggle bolt device for fastening objects to a substrate comprising a metal anchor member having a nut portion and a selectively frangible positioning and holding assembly engaged with the metal member. The assembly comprises two elongated control legs, with the first ends of the control legs being pivotally attached to the metal member. The second ends of the control legs are movably attached to each other by an elongated undercut element interference, with movement of one leg relative to the other, effected by finger tip sliding, causing the metal anchor member to pivot from substantially in line with an insertion aperture in the substrate, to a position parallel to the substrate when the second ends of the control legs are aligned with each other. A positioning collar is engaged with both legs, holding them in place and is movable along the respective lengths of the legs. The legs are arcuate in cross section with a series of axially extending closely spaced rib-like teeth within the arcuate concavity. The collar is adapted to conform to the arcuate concavity together with a step tooth section to provide a one way ratchet with the legs. Once the metal member is positioned behind the substrate and abutted thereto the collar is ratcheted to a snug fit with the substrate and the legs are broken off to thereby fix the anchor in place.
