Patent CA-2627013-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SEUL MICHAEL
IPC: G16B40/00
Filed: 2006-10-23
Abstract: Disclosed are methods for establishing the compatibility between two blood types on the basis of cross-matching (under a designated rule of stringency) the minor blood group genotypes of recipient and prospective donors. To determine compatibility, the blood group genotypes are mapped to corresponding phenotypes according to the expression states associated with a set of underlying haplotypes, and compatibility is established by establishing the compatibility of blood types constructed as a combination of constituent phenotypes. The bit strings are matched, preferably using an algorithm expression. Where ambiguity in mapping genotypes to haplotypes exists, it can be reduced based on frequency of occurrence of the haplotypes in the sample population, or resolved by gametic phasing. Such reduction or resolution of ambiguity is particularly desirable where mismatches in the antigens expressed by the constituent haplotypes have greater clinical significance.

Abstract: The twist of a railway track (36) can be measured with a vehicle which includes a frame (25). This frame (25) carries a roll sensor (40) to measure the rate of roll (w) about a longitudinal axis, and sensors (38) to monitor the variations in the relative tilt between the frame (25) and the rails (35).  The signals from these sensors (38) and (40) enable the changes in cant (.DELTA.c) between one instant and the next to be determined, and so the twist of the track can be calculated by summing successive changes in cant. This method of determining twist can operate at substantially any vehicle speed, and gives consistent measurements in real-time.
