Title: Reading from a tape storage medium
Inventor: CHERUBINI GIOVANNI
IPC: G11B5/584
Filed: 2013-09-30
Abstract: A tape storage system simultaneously receives readback signals from a set of data readers DRi reading from data tracks DT1-14 of a set of adjacent data tracks extending along a longitudinal extension x of a tape. Each data track has a width wDT and each data reader has a width wDR that exceeds the width of a data track. In the readback signal of one of the data readers a simultaneous presence of two waveforms is detected stemming from two different servo patterns SP1, SP2 arranged in servo sections of adjacent data tracks. Lateral position, velocity, gain or timing information is derived from a measure of the energy of the two waveforms detected in the readback signal of the one data reader and another of the data readers and is used in the operation of the tape storage system. The servo patterns can have at least two different servo patterns, the servo sections of adjacent data tracks being longitudinally offset and partly overlapping.

Title: Medicament Delivery device
Inventor: WILLOUGHBY ALASTAIR MCKEAN
IPC: A61M5/145
Filed: 2013-10-28
Abstract: A medicament delivery device 10 e.g. for infusion, comprising a first container 12 having a delivery outlet 16a at a front end thereof and a first stopper 14 axially moveable in the first container 12, the first stopper 14 defining and separating a first chamber 16 and a second chamber 18 in the first container 12, where the first chamber 16 is axially forwards of the first stopper 14 and the second chamber 16 is axially rearwards of the first stopper 14. The medicament delivery device further comprising a second container 20 having a second stopper 22 axially moveable in the second container20, the second stopper 22 defining and separating a third chamber 24 and a fourth chamber 26 in the second container 20, where the third chamber 24 is axially forwards of the second stopper 22 and the fourth chamber 26 is axially rearwards of the second stopper 22, and where the third chamber 24 has a vent outlet 24a in fluid communication with a venting chamber. The first stopper 14 is connected to the second stopper 22 by a tensile member 28 such that axially forwardly movement of the first stopper 14 causes axially forwardly movement of the second stopper 22 due to tensioning of the tensile member 28. The first stopper 14 is driveable in an axially forwardly direction, the first chamber 16 is configured to contain medicament for delivery through the delivery outlet 16a as the first stopper 14 moves axially forwards, the third chamber 24 contains a viscous fluid that enters the venting chamber via the vent outlet 24a as the second stopper 22 moves axially forwards, and the fourth chamber 26 has a pressure that is substantially equal to or greater than the pressure of the venting chamber. As the first stopper 14 is driven axially forwardly, the tensile member 28 is tensioned and causes the second stopper 22 to move axially forwardly and the venting of viscous fluid into the venting chamber via the vent outlet 24a retards the axially forward movement of the second stopper 22 and the first stopper 14.

Title: Marine Threat monitoring and defense system
Inventor: GRANT JOHN
IPC: G08G3/02
Filed: 2012-05-22
Abstract: Monitoring a marine threat to a target marine structure comprises monitoring marine obstacle O1, O2 near a structure 20 which is conducting set operations; predicting a threat to the structure or set operation from the obstacle; planning multiple response scenarios to the predicted threat and presenting them to a user. The obstacles may be icebergs, pack ice, flotsam, submerged or floating objects, marine animals or fish. The structure may be a stationed rig performing drilling or production operations or a seismic survey vessel performing exploration operations with a planned route. The threat may be determined by comparing the size, distance, speed, shape, depth or track of the obstacle to a sustainable impact threshold or a time required to cease the set operation or move the structure. The response scenarios may include deploying support vessel 30, tracking beacon 40, aircraft or ROV to observe, divert, tag or break up the obstacle.

Title: Network topology optimization
Inventor: John Crickett
IPC: H04L12/26
Filed: 2014-11-28
Abstract: Determining the optimum topology of a network for satisfying multiple service requirements. The method comprises generating a set of candidate network topologies 508 from a set of network resources 502, one or more constraints 504 and a demand matrix relating to the multiple service requirements 506. The candidate network topologies satisfy each demand requirement for each service to be handled. Each candidate network topology is then evaluated 510 to determine if a stop condition is satisfied 512 based on a respective fitness value. If the stop condition is not satisfied then the set of candidate network topologies is evolved 514 and re-evaluated iteratively. If, however, the stop condition is satisfied then the best candidate network topology based on the evaluation is selected as the network topology 516, 518. Constraints input may specify e.g. delay/latency, cost, adjacency, protection/redundancy etc. requirements. The arrangement may be seeded with a worst-case (highest-demand) scenario to more quickly converge to the optimum. Instead of optimising the individual service requirements the focus is on optimising the network topology as a whole for all service requirements under one or more constraints.

Title: Self-correcting drive and motor control for cargo canopy system
Inventor: CHENOWTH RORY H
IPC: B61D39/00
Filed: 2013-07-19
Abstract: In the coupling of bi-directional, non- freewheeling-type DC motors (24,25) to the pulling spool (23) of a canopy (1 1) deployment strap (21,22) and to a take-up roller (15), ratchet gears (26,27) assure automatic alignment and synchronization of the deployment and retraction mechanisms. The reverse direction rotation of the unwinding motor can be uninhibited through the slipping of its ratchet gear when the winding motor is slow to take up the pulling strap or the tarp (11) being wound thereon. The slipping provides sufficient slack to accommodate changes of spool and roller diameters as more material is successively wound thereon. A friction brake acting against a flange of die spool keeps it from spinning freely when not engaged by the motor. Winding motors can be protected against excessive power use by measuring the level of drawn current with a digital ammeter. If the current exceeds a threshold level of operation, a timer is started. As soon as a given absolute safe period of operation is surpassed, a breaker switch is tripped interrupting the motor power supply. A plural number of trip points can be programmed into the device.
