Abstract: In particular, a tissue making process is disclosed in which wet pressing is coupled with molding to create tissue products having good bulk and low density characteristics. During the process, a wet web containing papermaking fibers is first dewatered and then transferred to a fabric which may be a coarse fabric for molding the web against the fabric. According to the process of the present invention, the web is dewatered and transferred to the fabric under a suction force without a substantial amount of rewetting of the tissue web occurring. The problems associated with rewetting upon transfer to the fabric are minimized by incorporating into the process a transfer conveyor, such as a felt, that has particular characteristics or is made from a particular construction.

Abstract: A line scan imager is used to determine the motion of a subject. Each line of image data from the line scan imager is compared with a reference image. The location of a matching line in the reference image reveals the displacement of the subject. The current subject displacement can be determined based on each line of image data. The resulting displacement information can be used to correctly place other optical beams on the subject. The method can be applied to tracking the human eye to facilitate measurement, imaging, or treatment with a beam of optical radiation.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de mesurer la consistance à l'aide d'un dispositif de mesure de la consistance rotatif. Ce procédé consiste à hacher (900) à l'aide des dents d'une structure de hachage le rayonnement optique transmis par une source optique à un détecteur optique, au fur et à mesure que les barres du dispositif de mesure de la consistance rotatif tournent. De plus, une référence de la structure de hachage hache (902) le rayonnement optique pour former au moins une impulsion de référence indépendamment du pivotement entre les barres. La durée de chaque impulsion de référence est mesurée (904) lors de la mesure de la consistance. Une variation au niveau de l'impulsion de référence est définie (906) sur la base d'une comparaison entre la durée de l'impulsion de référence mesurée et la durée de l'impulsion de référence prédéfinie. La durée de chacune des impulsions de mesure est corrigée (908) en fonction de la variation au niveau de la durée de l'impulsion de référence.

Abstract: Biodegradable carriers synthesized from ricinoleic acid oligoesters and aliphatic molecules having at least one carboxylic acid and at least one hydroxy or carboxylic acid group that are liquids or pastes at temperatures below 370C and methods of making and using thereof are described herein. The polymers described herein significantly increase their viscosity upon immersion in aqueous medium. These polymers can be used as hydrophobic biomedical sealants, temporary barriers to prevent adhesions, such as organ to organ adhesion, cell supports, carriers for drug delivery, and coatings on implantable medical devices, such as stents. The polymers made from ricinoleic acid oligoesters are less viscous and easier to inject compared to polymers of similar composition and molecular weight prepared from ricinoleic acid monomers, possess a higher molecular weight, retain an incorporated drug for longer periods, and degrade into soft degradation products at a slower rate compared with polymers synthesized from ricinoleic acid monomers.  Pharmaceutically active agents can be incorporated into the liquid or pastes without the use of organic solvents.
