Title: Dispositif d'amortissement et de propagation son/bruit sous-marin transmis par un liquide
Inventor: ELMER KARL-HEINZ
IPC: E02B3/06
Filed: 2009-04-01
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif (3) d'amortissement et de propagation son/bruit sous-marin transmis par un liquide, notamment par l'eau, et des mouvements ondulatoires dans un liquide, notamment dans l'eau (8), au moyen d'un corps enveloppant (1) contenant un gaz. L'invention a pour but de créer un dispositif (3) permettant de réduire la transmission et la propagation du son et des mouvements ondulatoires dans l'eau (8), le dispositif (3) pouvant être utilisé de manière exempte de défauts et de façon contrôlée, aussi bien dans les eaux courantes ou stagnantes que dans les eaux impliquant de forts écoulements. Le dispositif doit par ailleurs présenter, indépendamment de la profondeur, une faible consommation d'énergie et n'occasionner, dans la mesure du possible, aucun frais d'exploitation; son utilisation à grande échelle doit être en outre avantageuse économiquement. Ces buts sont atteints grâce au dispositif (3) selon l'invention, lequel est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend : plusieurs corps enveloppants (1) contenant respectivement un gaz; ainsi qu'un élément support (2) et un corps massique (10), et en ce que les corps enveloppants (1) sont disposés, à distance entre eux, sur l'élément support (2). En raison des corps massiques (10), le gaz contenu dans le corps enveloppant (1) empêche la montée dans l'eau (8), de sorte que les volumes de gaz sont conservés et ne doivent pas être constamment renouvelés. Une alimentation en air comprimé, coûteuse et complexe notamment en zone offshore et à de grandes profondeurs, n'est pas nécessaire. De ce fait, il est possible que le gaz demeure conservé, sous forme de bulles, et indépendamment des conditions d'environnement dans l'eau, telles que courants ou pression d'eau. Le gaz contenu dans le corps enveloppant (1) ne peut ni fusionner, ni se répartir avec d'autres bulles de gaz.

Abstract: A transmitting/receiving system and a data processing method of the same are disclosed herein. The receiving sys-tem may include a receiving unit, a signaling decoder, and an FIC handler.  The receiving unit receives a broadcast signal includ-ing mobile service data configuring a data group. Herein, a transmission frame consists of multiple sub-frames, a sub-frame con-sists of multiple slots, and the data group is allocated to at least one slot. The signaling decoder acquires an FIC segment from the broadcast signal. Herein the FIC segment consists of an 35-byte FIC segment payload including a portion of signaling information between at least one ensemble and at least one mobile service, and an 2-byte FIC segment header including current/next (C/N) in-dication information indicating whether data of the FIC segment payload corresponds to information of a current transmission frame or to information of a next transmission frame. The FIC handler recovers at least one of an FIC chunk including signaling information between at least one ensemble and at least one mobile service of the current transmission frame and an FIC chunk in-cluding signaling information between at least one ensemble and at least one mobile service of the next transmission frame, from the payload of each FIC segment by using the C/N indication information.

Abstract: The present invention provides engineered tissue scaffolds, engineered tissues, and methods of using them. The scaffolds and tissues are derived from natural tissues and are created using non-thermal irreversible electroporation (IRE). Use of IRE allows for ablation of cells of the tissue to be treated, but allows vascular and neural structures to remain essentially unharmed. Use of IRE thus permits preparation of thick tissue scaffolds and tissues due to the presence of vasculature within the scaffolds. The engineered tissues can be used in methods of treating subjects, such as those in need of tissue replacement or augmentation.

Abstract: An absorbent article having colored regions. The absorbent article has at least three colored regions. The colored regions are spaced apart from one another. Each colored region has a major axis. The major axis of each colored region converges towards a common focal region on the longitudinal centerline of the absorbent article. The purpose of the colored regions arranged as described herein is to create the visual impression of depth, e.g. that the absorbent article is thick enough to deliver excellent absorption performance. Designers can provide for high absorbent capacity by employing advanced absorbent materials that are thin yet still are able to absorb a large quantity of fluid. By creating the visual impression of depth, designers of absorbent articles may provide to consumers absorbent articles that use less material, that will thus be less expensive, while they still appear to be thick.

Abstract: A method of analyzing a composition and a method of processing the composition are provided. The composition contains impurities and has a boiling point less than ambient temperature and/or a vapor pressure greater than water at 14.5 °C.  The method of analyzing the composition comprises a step of providing the composition in a liquid state within a vessel. The composition is chilled in the liquid state within the vessel at a temperature below the boiling point of the composition, thereby maintaining the composition in the liquid state. The chilled composition in the vessel is converted to produce at least one of a vaporized composition and a nebulized composition, which converted composition is introduced into an analytical device. A  measurement of content of the impurities of the composition is obtained from the analytical device. The method of processing the composition includes the same steps as the method of analyzing the composition, and but further requires that at least a portion of the composition remains in the supply tank.
