Abstract: The invention relates to an electric energy supply system for a ship, in particular for a navy ship that can be operated with a low IR signature and that is configured as an <<all electric ship>> (AES). Said system comprises a direct current network (DC), supplied by fuel cells, as a ship electrical system and network for normal propulsion and an alternating current network (AC) comprising generators, in particular for generating energy for high-speed propulsion. According to the invention, the generators are motor-driven, e.g. by means of at least one gas turbine or one diesel motor, preferably supercharged and the AC and DC network are interconnected in such a way that electric energy can be exchanged between them, in particular that electric energy can be withdrawn from the DC network and transferred to the AC network to start the motor-driven propulsion.

Abstract: L'invention a trait à une source de rayons X comportant une source d'électrons à haute énergie circulant le long d'une trajectoire longitudinale. Un matériau cible se trouve sur la trajectoire longitudinale, et un rayonnement X est généré par la rencontre des électrons à haute énergie avec la cible. Un matériau de blindage est placé autour d'au moins une partie de la cible. Le matériau de blindage définit une rainure s'étendant depuis la cible vers une surface extérieure du matériau de blindage, qui permet le passage du rayonnement généré. La rainure possède un axe transversal à la trajectoire longitudinale. L'axe peut être perpendiculaire à la trajectoire longitudinale. Le matériau de blindage peut définir une pluralité de rainures ayant un axe transversal. La source d'électrons à haute énergie peut être un accélérateur linéaire, par exemple. L'invention concerne également des systèmes de balayage intégrant de telles sources. Le système de balayage selon l'invention comprend un système transporteur possédant un axe longitudinal, et la source de rayonnement peut être placée de manière que la trajectoire longitudinale forme un angle aigu avec l'axe longitudinal, de façon à réduire la taille de l'unité de balayage par rapport à une unité dont l'axe longitudinal est perpendiculaire à la trajectoire longitudinale. L'axe longitudinal peut être parallèle à la trajectoire longitudinale, afin que soit formé un système de balayage de dimensions plus compactes. Une pluralité de rainures peuvent être définies dans le matériau de blindage, et un nombre correspondant de systèmes transporteurs peuvent permettre à une pluralité d'objets d'être examinés simultanément. L'invention se rapporte également à des procédés de génération de rayonnement, et à des procédés destinés à examiner des objets.

Title: Method for producing uv absorption layers on substrates
Inventor: BAUER MICHAEL
IPC: B05D3/02
Filed: 2003-10-08
Abstract: A process for forming UV absorber layers on an inorganic or organic substrate is described. That process comprises a) allowing a low-temperature plasma, a corona discharge or high-energy radiation to act on the inorganic or organic substrate, b) applying to the treated inorganic or organic substrate at least one free-radical-forming initiator and at least one UV absorber containing at least one ethylenically unsaturated group, and, optionally in the form of melts, solutions, suspensions or emulsions, at least one synergist and/or at least one ethylenically unsaturated compound, c) heating the coated substrate and/or irradiating it with electromagnetic waves. The invention relates also to a substrate provided with a UV absorber layer in accordance with that process. That process substantially eliminates vacuum conditions and excessive thermal stress or energy stress and also destruction of the UV absorber. Clear, transparent UV absorber layers that exhibit good adhesion are formed, the properties of which, such as, for example, the optical density, are advantageously controllable.

Abstract: A single-use lancet device is provided for drawing capillary blood samples. The device includes a body having an upper portion and a lower portion and a trigger carried by the upper portion of the body. The trigger is movable between a first raised position wherein the device is cocked and a second depressed position wherein the device is fired. A needle assembly is provided which is movable between a cocked position and a striking position. A free-floating drive spring is provided for moving the needle assembly from its cocked position to its striking position. A bounceback spring is integrally molded with the needle assembly and includes a pair of generally V-shaped spring arms. A trigger bar has a first position wherein it holds the needle assembly in its cocked position, and the trigger bar has a second position wherein it allows the needle assembly to move to its striking position as the drive spring expands. The trigger carries a pair of guillotine-type blades which sever the trigger bar and thereby releases the needle assembly from its cocked position. Alternate trigger bars are provided which may be deformed rather than severed. The device is also capable of assembly by automatic equipment. The device is incapable of a second use because of the deformation or severing of the trigger bar.

Abstract: A hydrogen fuel cell power system having improved efficiency comprises a fuel cell, a source of hydrogen gas, a compressor for creating a pressurized air stream, and a liquid supply which is heated by waste heat form the power system and evaporates into the pressurized air stream to produce a pressurized air and steam mixture. The pressurized air/steam mixture, which is preferably used as the oxidant in the fuel cell, is combusted with fuel in a burner to produce a high-temperature steam-laden exhaust stream. The high-temperature steam-laden exhaust stream drives an expander to produce a power output, and a power take-off from the expander uses the expander power to, for instance, drive an electrical generator, or drive other system components.; The evaporation of liquid can take place external to the fuel cell, or can take place directly within the fuel cell, preferably using a cooling liquid that is directly injected into the fuel cell. The fuel cell power system advantageously uses the low-temperature waste heat of the fuel cell to evaporate liquid into the pressurized air, resulting in a steam/air mixture having a relatively large expansion potential. The systems and related methods of the invention are applicable to a wide range of fuel cell power systems, including a "pure" or "non-hybrid" fuel cell power system, powered by hydrogen from either an external source, such as a hydrogen storage tank, or from "direct" reforming of a fuel at the anode. The invention is also applicable to integrated or "hybridized" fuel cell power systems which contain a local fuel reformer.; In these systems, the fuel cell is powered by hydrogen-containing reformate generated by the reformer.

Abstract: A method to perform adaptive channel filtering on a Radio Frequency (RF) bursts in a cellular
wireless communication system. This method first filters an input signal with a first stage filter
having a first bandwidth to produce a first stage output signal. Then the first stage output
signal is filtered with a second stage filter having a second bandwidth narrower than that of the
first stage filter to produce a multi-stage output signal. A comparison between first stage
performance measurements and multi-stage performance measurements determine the mode of
operation of the adaptive multistage filter. A first mode of operation, selected when the first
stage performance measurement compares favorably with the second stage performance
measurement, selects the output of the first stage filter as the output of the multi-stage filter.
Otherwise, a second mode of operation selects the output of the second stage filter as the output
of the multi-stage filter.
