Abstract: Circuits, apparatus, and methods for avoiding deadlock conditions in a bus fabric. One exemplary embodiment provides an address decoder for determining whether a received posted request is a peer-to-peer request. If it is, the posted request is sent as a non-posted request. A limit on the number of pending non-posted requests is maintained and not exceed, such that deadlock is avoided. Another exemplary embodiment provides an arbiter that tracks a number of pending posted requests. When the number pending posted requests reaches a predetermined or programmable level, a Block Peer-to-Peer signal is sent to the arbiter's clients, again avoiding deadlock.

Abstract: Polymer materials are useful as electrode array bodies for neural stimulation. They are particularly useful for retinal stimulation to create artificial vision, cochlear stimulation to create artificial hearing, or cortical stimulation many purposes. The pressure applied against the retina, or other neural tissue, by an electrode array is critical. Too little pressure causes increased electrical resistance, along with electric field dispersion. Too much pressure may block blood flow. Common flexible circuit fabrication techniques generally require that a flexible circuit electrode array be made flat. Since neural tissue is almost never flat, a flat array will necessarily apply uneven pressure. Further, the edges of a flexible circuit polymer array may be sharp and cut the delicate neural tissue. By applying the right amount of heat to a completed array, a curve can be induced. With a thermoplastic polymer it may be further advantageous to repeatedly heat the flexible circuit in multiple molds, each with a decreasing radius. Further, it is advantageous to add material along the edges. It is further advantageous to provide a fold or twist in the flexible circuit array. Additional material may be added inside and outside the fold to promote a good seal with tissue.

Abstract: A compact catalytic reactor (20) comprises a channel for a rapid reaction having an inlet (26) for a gas mixture to undergo the reaction. The channel is provided with two different catalyst structures (32, 34), a first catalyst structure (32) in the vicinity of the inlet (26) and a second catalyst structure (34) further from the inlet, such that a gas mixture supplied to the inlet flows past them both.

This is applicable to combustion of gas mixtures containing hydrogen, for which the first catalyst structure (32) may comprise uncoated oxidised aluminium-containing terrific steel, while the second catalyst structure (34) may incorporate Pt and/or Pd in an alumina support. Exhaust gases may also be recycled to the inlet (26) to inhibit combustion.

Abstract: Image sensors and a depth sensor of a monoscopic video sensing device are utilized to capture a 2D video and corresponding depth information. Regions of interest (ROls) for the captured 2D video are selected based on the captured corresponding depth information. The monoscopic video sensing device selectively processes the captured 2D video and the captured corresponding depth information based on the selected ROls. A 3D video is composed from the processed 2D video for display. The captured depth information that is synchronized to the captured 2D video is stored as metadata, and may be interpolated to match video resolution of the captured 2D video. The captured 2D video and the captured corresponding depth information are enhanced through scalable video coding. With 3D video rendering, relevant image/video components of the captured 2D video are selected based on the selected ROls to compose the 3D video together with the corresponding depth information.

Abstract: Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Rotorblatt für eine Windenergieanlage, mit einem eine Rotorblattvorderkante und eine Rotorblatthinterkante aufweisenden aerodynamischen Profil. Weiterhin betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung eine Rotorblattspitze für ein Rotorblatt mit einem eine Druck- und eine Saugseite aufweisenden aerodynamischen Profil, wobei die Rotorblattspitze in ihrem Endbereich in Richtung der Druckseite des Rotorblattes abgebogen oder abgewinkelt ist. 
     Um die Schallemissionen von Windenergieanlagen weiter zu verringern, ist das Rotorblatt in seinem Endbereich in Richtung der Hinterkante des Rotorblattes in der Rotorblattebene abgebogen oder abgewinkelt. Dabei liegt der Erfindung die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass bei einem sich an der Spitze nicht zuspitzenden Rotorblatt die wirksame Rotorblattoberfläche gerade im äußeren Bereich, in welchem die Wirkung am größten ist, unverringert erhalten bleibt. Durch das Abbiegen bzw. Abwinkeln des Endbereiches des Rotorblattes wird jedoch die Hinterkante im Endbereich des Rotorblattes nach hinten verlegt, so dass sich die Strömung an der Rotorblatthinterkante mit einem zeitlichen Versatz im äußeren Bereich löst. 
     Alternativ kann zur Lösung der Aufgabe eine Rotorblattspitze derart weitergebildet werden, dass sich der "Außenbereich" verjüngt. Dieser Ausbildung der Rotorblattspitze liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass durch die sich verringernde Blatttiefe eine verringerte Umströmung der Blattspitze erfolgt, da sich deren Energie vorher auf die Hinterkantenwirbel verteilt, aber gleichzeitig auch die wirksame Rotorblattoberfläche verringert wird. Durch das Abwinkeln der Rotorblattspitze bleibt die wirksame Rotorblatttiefe bis zur abgewinkelten Rotorblattspitze hin optimal.
