Abstract: A tin-plated steel sheet comprising a plating layer containing tin on at least one surface of a steel sheet, and a chemical conversion coating containing P and tin on the plating layer is provided.                                              In the above steel sheet, a coated amount of the chemical conversion coating per surface is 1.0 to 50 mg/m2 or more in terms of P, an atomic ratio Sn/P obtained from the intensity of a P2p peak and that of a Sn3d peak is 1.0 to 1.5, the intensities being measured at the surface using an x-ray photoelectron spectroscopic method, and an atomic ratio O/P obtained from the intensity of the P2p peak and that of an O1s peak is 4.0 to 9Ø This phosphoric acid-based chemical conversion coating of the tin-plated steel sheet can suppress degradation in performance, which is caused by the growth of a tin oxide layer on the surface, instead of a conventional chromate coating.

Abstract: As each application is loaded for use by an operating system, a message handling application within the operating system associates the applications with relativity metrics for later use in handling interprocess messages. A cryptographic identifier associated with each application is verified and, based on the verifying, each application is associated with a relativity metric. The message handling application receives a message from an origin process. The message handling application then determines a destination process for the message, a relativity metric for the origin process, and a relativity metric for the destination process. Based on an analysis of the relativity metrics of the origin process and the destination process, the message handling application determines whether to pass the message to the destination process.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for distributing air in a cargo aircraft.  The cargo aircraft has an air distribution system (10) which is connected to at least one cargo deck. The air distribution system comprises a source (12, 14, 16, 18) for bleed air, at least one so-called air conditioning unit (28, 38) for treating the bleed air, a mixing unit (32) which receives treated bleed air from the air conditioning unit (28, 38) and delivers it to the at least one cargo deck, and at least one shut-off valve (58, 60, 62, 64) between the mixing unit (32) and the cargo deck in order to interrupt or completely release the air supply to the cargo deck. In order to reduce the bleed air requirement, a cockpit switch (82, 84, 86, 88) co-operating with the shutoff valve is provided, the operation of which switch causes the at least one shutoff valve (58, 60, 62, 64) to take up an intermediate position. For this purpose the shutoff valve (58, 60, 62, 64) is formed as a motor-operated control valve which can take up any desired intermediate position between its completely open and completely closed position. A control unit (92) establishes for each possible operating state of the air distribution system a desired air volume balance and adjusts the flow volume through the at least one air conditioning unit (28, 38) in accordance with the desired air volume balance established for the respective operating state such that the pressure in the mixing unit (32) is at a constant, predetermined value.

Abstract: The invention relates to a strand guide roller of a strand guide device for guiding a cast strand. The strand guide roller includes at least one first and one second sectional roller arranged next to each other, wherein the first sectional roller has a roller journal at its end surface adjacent to the second sectional roller. The strand guide roller includes a middle bearing, between both sectional rollers, for receiving and supporting the roller journal of the first sectional roller. In order to improve strand guidance by increasing the bearing surface of the strand, it is suggested, according to the invention, that the first and second sectional rollers be connected with each other outside of the middle bearing by a plug-in connection. Then, according to the invention, the middle bearing is formed as unsplit separate bearing with an essentially smaller window width in comparison with a split bearing.

Abstract: This invention discloses a surgical prep solution formulation, either film forming or non-film forming, that changes color upon a change in pH to indicate that the solvent has sufficiently evaporated. The major components of this surgical prep solution include: antimicrobial agents, solvents, pH adjusters, color changing pH indicators, and optionally: film forming polymers, dyes and viscosity regulators. The pH of the solution may rise or fall depending on the pH of the original solution as compared with the normal pH range of the acid mantle of the human skin or the normal pH range of a sterilizing solution. As the pH changes, the pH indicator may cause the surgical prep solution to change color. Concurrently, as the fluids evaporate, the pH indicators interact with atmospheric CO2, causing the solution to change color based on the pH of the solution. The solution may also be used as coating for medical devices.

Abstract: An Elliptic Curve scalar multiplication product involving a scalar and a base point is determined in a manner that acts as a countermeasure to side channel attacks. A key splitting strategy called Additive Splitting Using Division involves selecting a random integer and determining an integer quotient and a remainder by dividing the scalar by the random integer. The product may then be expressed as a sum of scalar multiplications, which may be evaluated using a combination of a fixed-sequence window method with the known Interleaving method. When the integer quotient and remainder are odd, major collisions may be avoided when determining the product. Accordingly, the random integer that determines whether the integer quotient and remainder are odd may be subject to some control.
