Abstract: A method of forming a can end comprises the step of forming a substantially circular metal blank having a periphery and a center panel. An annular recessed panel is subsequently formed in the blank. The recessed panel has a first depth in relation to a substantially annular portion of the blank contiguously formed with the recessed panel. The substantially annular portion of the blank is then coined while the recessed panel is re-formed to a second depth in relation to the substantially annular portion of the blank. The second depth is greater than the first depth. Forming the can end in this manner minimizes warpage of the can end, and thereby allows the can end to be formed from a relatively thin sheet of metal.

The arrangement comprises an essentially windtight and vapourtight climate screen (12) which is arranged in such a manner that it divides the crawl space (2) into at least one upper (10) and at least one lower (11) climate zone and forms a tight partition between the climate zones. The climate screen (12) is located at such at height in the crawl space (2) that the outdoor air vents (9) in the foundation walls (1) communicate with only the lower climate zone (11). The upper climate zone (10) is provided with at least one supply air opening (18) which is connected to a room above in the building, and an exhaust air opening (21; 22) which is connected to a discharge duct (23; 24).

Abstract: A ring-wing aircraft suited particularly, although not exclusively, to use in micro-unmanned air vehicles (UAV's) with ring-wings. An aircraft (10) according to the invention comprises a ring-wing (11) defining a duct (16) with a longitudinally-extending central axis (31), propulsion element (15) located within the duct and moveable aerofoils (13, 18) for controlling the aircraft in flight, the ring-wing being truncated obliquely at one end, that end being the rear (11b) when in horizontal flight, to form a ring-wing with opposed sides of unequal length. This arrangement produces center of mass offset from the central axis of the ring-wing, the pendulum effect will ensure that the aircraft will roll so that its center of mass will always be at the lowest height possible when the aircraft is airborne. Therefore the aircraft has a preferred orientation, and the control surfaces can be oriented with respect to this preferred orientation. In addition, the oblique truncation at the rear keeps the center of mass towards the front of the aircraft thereby giving improved stability in all three axes.

Abstract: A narrow band infrared water fraction meter detects a full water cut range of a liquid hydrocarbon flow stream and a flow stream of a gas well. The water fraction meter includes a light source probe for irradiating the flow stream with a narrow band of infrared light and a light detector probe for sensing attenuation of infrared light passed through the flow stream. For a narrow band of infrared light of a predetermined wavelength, there is a substantial difference in the absorption of infrared radiation between the gas and water content of a flow stream of a gas well. At such a wavelength, the narrow band of infrared light is substantially transmitted through gas content and liquid hydrocarbon content of the flow stream and substantially absorbed by water content of the flow stream. The water fraction meter thus differentiates water by treating liquid hydrocarbon like gas. Injection of corrosion/hydrate inhibiting chemicals into the flow stream can be controlled based on the attenuation of infrared light detected by the water fraction meter. In the case of a liquid hydrocarbon flow stream, the infrared light is substantially transmitted through its liquid hydrocarbon phase and substantially absorbed by its water phase. The water fraction meter also measures a water fraction of a multi-phase flow stream. The emitted infrared light is substantially transmitted through a first set of phases of the flow stream and substantially absorbed by a second set of phases of the flow stream.

Abstract: A micromovement measuring device records creeping and dynamic infraprocesses both of natural and artificial origin, including seismic processes or infrasound and gravitational waves. The device has a sensitivity for measuring in a wide dynamic range. The device includes a measuring element, a sensitive element, a membrane, a signal conditioner, a fixing electromagnet, and a pulling electromagnet. The pulling electromagnet is located on the membrane which increases the range of the measurable movements. A hermetic housing prevents the formation of oxides or similar films at the working surfaces of the measuring and sensitive elements. A method of converting movement to electric signals is performed by the device, which takes an electronic field emission current to be a characteristic of quantization, and so movements in the range of Angstroms may be recorded.

Abstract: A mobile communication system which is capable of, when carrying out mobile communication using a shared channel, increasing in efficiency of transmission timing of the data transmission rate request value to prevent wasteful power consumption and hence reduce power consumption. The mobile station apparatus 102 of the mobile communication system measures CIR of the received signal from the base station apparatus 101 at the CIR measuring section 306, and decides the data transmission rate request value corresponding to the measured CIR value at the rate request value deciding section 307. Also, it detects an error of the received signal at the CRC section 304, and, when no error is found, calculates a difference between the average data transmission rate from the base station apparatus 101 and the data transmission request value at the rate request value transmission controlling section 308. Then, it transmits the data transmission rate request value to the base station apparatus 101 only when the obtained difference is larger than a threshold value. <IMAGE>
