Abstract: A system, and associated components and methodology, having a dunnage supply with an outlet through which one or more crumpled strips are supplied, a positioning device that positions in juxtaposition portions of the one or more strips of dunnage, and a stapler for connecting the juxtaposed portions to hold them together. In a particular system, the system includes a converter that has a conversion assembly that converts a sheet stock material into a crumpled strip of dunnage and has an outlet through which the strip of dunnage is emitted. The system also includes a coiler that rolls the strip of dunnage into a coil, and a stapler that secures the trailing end portion of the strip of dunnage to at least the next-innermost portion of the strip in the coil by inserting a staple through the trailing end portion and the juxtaposed portion of the coiled strip.

Abstract: A bidirectional module for activation of gene expression and regulation of transcription in both directions is disclosed. The bidirectional module comprises multiple cis regulatory DNA sequence elements, strategically arranged to give a "Transcription Activating Module" that achieves high level expression from a "Transcription Initiation Module". The latter functions like a minimal promoter. The former activates transcription simultaneously in both the directions from the latter and also responds to several transcription inducing, external stimuli in both the directions. Since it is an artificially designed bidirectional transcription module, it has no equivalent DNA sequence in plant genome. This reduces the chances of the genes from being silenced by homology based mechanisms. A bidirectional promoter module as this, can therefore be used to develop efficient vectors for genetic engineering in plants.

Abstract: A power control apparatus of an internal combustion engine that is connected to a transmission through an automatic clutch. When the transmission shifts gears, the automatic clutch selectively connects and disconnects the internal combustion engine and the transmission to and from each other. The power control apparatus executes power control of the internal combustion engine to meet various power demands. The power control of the internal combustion engine includes gear shifting power control for achieving power to meet a power demand when the transmission shifts gears, and normal power control for achieving power to meet a power demand reflecting factors including non-gear shifting factors. The power control apparatus has an engine control computer. When the transmission shifts gears, the engine control computer gives priority to the execution of the gear shifting power control over the normal power control.

Abstract: The rheometer comprises two concentric cylinders (5,6) between which there is a sample of the fluid under test. An ultrasound transducer is mounted outside the outer cylinder, in order to direct ultrasound pulses towards the fluid. The fluid contains particles which are reflecting for ultrasound, enabling viscosity characteristics of the fluid to be determined. The apparatus comprises a rheometer (1) and an ultrasound transducer (2) linked to a pulse generator and receiver (3). This is linked to a data collection card (4) linked to a microcomputer (7). The rheometer comprises two concentric cylinders (5,6) between which there is a sample of the fluid under test. The gap between the cylinders is between 0.5 and 1.1 mm, and the interior cylinder comprises a rotor turned by the rheometer. The transducer is a wide band piezo-polymer transducer mounted outside the outer cylinder, which serves as a stator. The fluid contains particles which are reflecting for ultrasound, and these may be a natural part of the fluid, or specifically added. The viscosity characteristics of the fluid may be determined by analysis of the signals detected by the transducer.
