Abstract: A method for producing a rotor of a fan, which has support disks and lamellae which each have a curved cross-sectional profile, is proposed. The method is distinguished by the fact that firstly the lamellae are pushed axially into receiving openings in the support disks. Then, the profile height of each lamella is increased as a result of the lamella being plastically deformed in the region of the receiving opening, in such a manner that the lamella becomes clamped in its receiving opening.

conveyer (27) for conveying a soil to be modified from
the soil hopper (28), a soil conditioner supply device
(29) for supplying a soil conditioner to the soil and a
mixer (22) for crushing and mixing the conveyed soil and

soil conveyer (27) to make small a gap between the
endless belt member (36) and the drum (45) so that a
large lump in the material soil having a large particle
size does not pass this gap. According to such structure,
since the large lump of soil does not fall to the impact
hammer (33), the soil can be crushed and mixed by the
impact hammer so that the soil conditioner can be fully
infiltrated into the soil, thus the soil condition being
effectively modified as a modified soil to be recycled as
backfill or roadbed material.

Abstract: An optical filter having a wide tuning range and a method
of making the same. A fiber Bragg grating member (408) having a
selected grating pitch is coupled to a plurality of
actuating members such as Shape Memory Alloys (406A-406F). A current
source or thermal source is included for providing a
controlled amount of current or heat so as to cause a
change in the length of the actuating members. The length
of the fiber Bragg grating member is accordingly changed
also. The grating pitch is correspondingly altered,
thereby causing a change in the Bragg resonance wavelength
of the grating. In response, a reflected optical signal
selected from incoming multiplexed optical signals tunes to
a different wavelength. A closed-loop controller is
provided for controlling energy inputs to the actuating
members to modulate the tuning of the reflected optical
signals.

Abstract: There is provided a cavity resonator for reducing the phase noise of electromagnetic
waves output from a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) voltage controlled
oscillator (VCO) by utilizing a semiconductor (e.g., silicon, GaAs or InP) micro machining
technique. In the cavity (500), instead of an existing metal cavity, a cavity, which is
obtained by micro machining silicon or a compound semiconductor, is coupled to a
microstrip line (400) to allow the cavity resonator to be adopted in a reflection type voltage
controlled oscillator. A coupling slot (210) is formed by removing a predetermined size of
the part of an upper ground plane film (200) of a cavity facing to the microstrip line (400).
Consequently, the cavity resonator reduces the phase noise of microwaves or millimetre
waves which are output from a voltage controlled oscillator.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for identifying one or more low abundance sequences differing by one or more single-base changes, insertions, or deletions, from a high abundance sequence in a plurality of target nucleotide sequences. The high abundance wild-type sequence is selectively removed using high fidelity polymerase chain reaction analog conversion, facilitated by optimal buffer conditions, to create a restriction endonuclease site in the high abundance wild-type gene, but not in the low abundance mutant gene. This allows for digestion of the high abundance DNA. Subsequently the low abundant mutant DNA is amplified and detected by the ligase detection reaction assay. The present invention also relates to a kit for carrying out this procedure.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil d'évaluation de la prédisposition d'un patient aux attaques. Ce procédé consiste à recueillir des signaux électriques du cerveau du patient examiné. Les données de signaux correspondants aux signaux électriques recueillis sont comparées à au moins un étalon. Dans un des modes de réalisation de l'invention, cet étalon représente un signal électrique neuronal provenant d'un sujet connu pour être prédisposé au risque d'attaques. Le résultat de comparaison positive indique que le patient en examen présente une prédisposition aux attaques. De plus, on peut utiliser le résultat de la comparaison pour caractériser la configuration de l'écoulement du sang neuronal et le degré de prédisposition aux attaques. Une forte similitude avec un étalon provenant d'un autre patient prédisposé aux attaques indique que le patient en examen subit un écoulement de sang neuronal similaire, et de ce fait, il est prédisposé aux attaques à un degré similaire. On peut également utiliser cette information pour déterminer à la fois le besoin de test supplémentaire et/ou le type approprié et un supplément de thérapie. Dans une variante, l'étalon représente un signal électrique neuronal provenant du patient sous examen à un moment antérieure. Une comparaison positive de ce cas indique que l'état du patient sous examen n'a pas changé. Le résultat d'une comparaison négative indique que l'activité électrique neuronale du patient sous examen a changé, impliquant des changements possibles dans l'écoulement du sang neuronal. Ceci peut indiquer que le patient est prédisposé aux attaques et que des tests supplémentaires et/ou une thérapie pharmaceutique ou autre sont nécessaires. Par ailleurs, l'appareil de collecte de signaux électriques du cerveau comprend un casque pourvu d'électrodes concentrées dans une zone qui correspond à une région crânienne particulière recherchée.
