Abstract: A process for the manufacture of a glycerol ester by percolation of a fatty acid and glycidol (or deriv.) through a bed of a macro-porous anionic resin, acting as a catalyst vis-a-vis condensation of the fatty acid with the glycidol (or deriv.). The stages of the process are as follows: (a) the moist resin is distributed in a fixed bed and de-mineralised water is circulated through the bed; (b) a conditioning phase is effected by percolating the fatty acid through the bed, so as to displace and eliminate the water therein and to impregnate the resin with fatty acid and expand the bed; (c) the fatty acid and glycidol (or deriv.) are then passed through to effect the reaction in the absence of water and solvent; and (d) the glycerol ester is then recovered. Also claimed, is the installation for effecting such a procedure. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A joint construction for a medical guide wire joining a tubular member (282 or 331) to a helical coil (288) has an elongate element extending therethrough. The tubular member has an outside diameter no greater than the outside diameter of the coil. A wall of the tubular member defines a passage extending through the tubular member and has an exterior surface. The tubular member has an end portion with a helical recess (286 or 333) formed therein extending through the outer surface to form a helical thread. The helical coil has a passage extending therethrough and an end portion threaded into the helical recess which fixedly secures the coil to the tubular member so that the passage in the tubular member and the passage in the coil are in alignment.

Abstract: The method involves calculating the difference (RTD=R12-0, R12-1) between a first time reference of a first oscillator and a second time reference of a second oscillator at two successive instants (t0,t4). This is determined as a function of the propagation time difference associated with the first and second oscillators. The variation between the calculated reference time differences is determined by a time unit. The frequency difference between the oscillators is determined in response to a variation in the calculated time differences which is greater than a given threshold.

Abstract: Programmable material is a collection of substantially cubic shaped bricks called monomers that move relative to each other under computer control to sculpt engineering structures (5) and mechanisms (6) (walking machine) illustrated in the figure. The monomers have features to lock to other monomers and slide relative to other monomers without separating. The monomers are fault tolerant against damage; functional monomers move faulty monomers and replace them with functioning clones. Movement of monomers is broken down systematically into streamers, gateways, highways and reservoir methods to obtain individual monomer movement paths required to synthesise a structure. Specialised monomers can carry tools which together with synthesis of custom structures create custom machines.

Abstract: Switchable electro-optic medium (2) between two substrates (3, 4) at least one of which carries a grating structure (7, 8) at the side of the electro-optic medium, which grating structure has refractive indices which are substantially identical to those of the medium in the non-isotropic state.
