Abstract: An image processing system in which sets of image elements having display values outside of a target range B of display values are each respectively morphologically dilated. The intersection between the morphologically dilated sets of image elements is then identified and those image elements within the intersecting region are removed from the set of image elements having the target range B of display values. This removes image elements incorrectly appearing to have display values corresponding to the target range B of display values due to aliasing effects between regions of image elements having display values either side of the target range B of image values. The imaging may be two-dimensional or three-dimensional imaging. The morphological dilatation is preferably performed with a quasi-circular or a quasi-spherical structuring element having a radius of between two and three voxels.

Abstract: A blower having a fan mounted perpendicularly relative to an airflow discharge port. The fan is disposed within a volute formed in the housing at a rear area of the housing. This places the volute slightly behind the user's leg or hip when the blower is suspended or being held by a user along one side of the user's body. This significantly increases the ergonomics, efficiency and comfort of the blower by allowing the blower to rest more comfortably along the user's side without interference from the volute portion of the housing. This also allows the motor to be located directly underneath the handle of the housing to provide a better balance and feel to the housing when the user is holding onto the blower via the handle.

To each concentrator, a set of electricity meters is connected, such that bi-directional communication between each meter and its associated concentrator is possible. The intelligence of the system is distributed between the central server, the concentrators and the electricity meters. To this end, each meter comprises at least a first processor, a first data memory and a first program memory for bi-directional communication with the associated concentrator. The first data memory serves to at least temporarily store and/or transmit the data which have already undergone a first processing by the first processor. Each of the concentrators comprises a second processor, a second program memory and a second data memory as well as means for a bi-directional communication with a central server. The second data memory serves to temporarily store and/or transmit the data processed by the second processor. The concentrators reproduce a virtual image of electricity meters downstream of the respective concentrator for the transactions, exchange of data or for receiving controls and/or programs from the central server. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A density/solute monitor having at least one ultrasound probe, a signal processing unit, and a computing mechanism, and process for using the same, to measure phase shift between emitting and receiving ultrasound, sound velocity, compressibility, density, and solute concentration of fluid flowing through a fluid processing system. The ultrasound probe emits and receives ultrasound waves through the fluid and the signal-processing unit and computing mechanism process the ultrasound waves to determine phase and time shift. The computing mechanism converts phase shift to density, compressibility, and solute concentration measurements of the fluid. Calibrating fluids calibrate the detected phase shift in terms of sound velocity in the factory. Measurements provide information about passage of solutes and flow to achieve better solute collection efficiency, solution purity, and control of fluid processing systems. The density/solute monitor can include other detection modalities such as an optical probe, making concentration measurements of the density/solute monitor more specific to selected solutes.
