Abstract: A process and device for reducing the dynamic effects and concomitant noise during the discharge of bulk material (8) from a silo (1). When bulk material (8) is discharged from silos (1), the movements of the material (8) can give rise to noisy vibration in the silo walls (2). This can result in the generation of very loud noise, "silo howl", especially in silos (1) with sheet-metal walls (2). The rate of flow (9) of the bulk material in the neighbourhood of the wall can be reduced and a wide wall shear region (33) created by means (26) forming a macroscopic roughness on the wall (2), thus reducing dynamic effects and undesirable noise generation during the discharge of bulk material (8) from the silo (1).

Abstract: The invention concerns a radiation energy converter in the form of a highly effective selective absorber for converting electromagnetic radiation into heat. According to the invention, the degree of reflection in the region of a specific wavelength is increased such that a desired additive colour effect is produced. At the same time, however, it is ensured that the degree of efficiency of energy recovery is sufficient to heat water for industrial or domestic use, for example. In this way, for the first time, the design of the absorber is placed before optimization of the efficiency thanks to a novel use of the highly selective absorbers developed very recently. The invention also concerns a method of producing the radiation energy converter and its use.

Abstract: A phosphate glass doped with copper in an amount of less than 2% by weight is formed to produce a lens for use on external aircraft lights. The glass attenuates infra red radiation to a degree where it does not pose a danger of temporarily blinding a pilot wearing night vision goggles yet remains visible. The glass has little appreciable effect on light transmission in the visible spectrum. Conveniently, the glass can be formed by slumping at a softening temperature against a mold to produce intricate lens shapes. In addition, the glass is able to withstand conventional toughening processes.

Abstract: Polyesters of organic hydroxy acids and their derivatives are, because of their ester linkages prone to hydrolysis, an important group of potentially biodegradable polymers. The mechanical properties of thermoplastic materials based on them have, however, been inferior for many applications, especially when melt processability is required. By the present method which comprises a two-step reaction and the use of a linking monomer it is possible to produce copolyester based polyurethanes from lactic acid and another organic hydroxy acid having a long flexible hydrocarbon chain in its molecules or corresponding lactone, as  epsilon -caprolactone. By the proper choice of reaction parameters one can thus get materials which are unexpectedly strong, tough and/or elastic. By melt blending inherently brittle biodegradable polymers with a copolyester based polyurethane according to the invention it has been possible to prepare materials with significantly improved impact strength.

Abstract: The invention relates to improved methods and apparatus for simulating the transmission of sound from sound sources to the ear canals of a listener, said sound sources being positioned arbitrarily in three dimensions in relation to the listener. In particular, the invention relates to new and improved methods for measurement of Head-related Transfer Functions, new and improved Head-related Transfer Functions, new and improved methods for processing Head-related Transfer Functions, and new methods of changing, or of maintaining, the directions of the sound sources as perceived by a listener.
