Abstract: A control system/method for an automated transmission system including a splitter-type, semi-blocked mechanical transmission (12) is provided. The control provides a technique for sensing auxiliary section engagement faults or auxiliary section and main section engagement faults and for operation in a fault-tolerant mode upon sensing such faults. In one embodiment, auxiliary section (214) engagement faults are sensed when the main section (212) is confirmed as engaged in an appropriate ratio and the transmission is confirmed as engaged in a ratio (GRN) other than the target ratio (GRT). In another embodiment, engagement faults are sensed when one section is confirmed as properly engaged and the transmission does not achieve engagement in a target ratio after a preset period of time. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Multichamber tubular containers are made by extrusion or injection stretch blow molding. The containers usually will have two or three chambers and one or more web walls. The web walls are relatively rigid as formed. The web walls must be stretched laterally to increase their flexibility which is needed for the uniform dispensing of product from the tubular chambers. The webs can be stretched mechanically by the rotation of rods, such as stretch rods, or pneumatically by a differential gas pressure in the chambers while the webs are at or near the glass transition temperature and can flow. The web walls for a circular tubular container can be stretched up to about one-half the diameter of the tubular container.

Abstract: A semiconducting, cross-linkable and silane-containing polymer composition is disclosed, as is a cable sheathing for an electric cable which, as semiconducting layer, includes the cross-linked polymer composition. The composition is based on ethylene and contains carbon black. Preferably, the polymer is a terpolymer of ethylene, a (meth)acrylate of an alcohol having 1-8 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl or butyl acrylate, and an unsaturated silane compound, such as vinyltrimethoxy silane. The polymer composition is distinguished by the fact that the carbon black has a specific surface area of approximately 30-80 m2/g, which reduces the problems associated with undesirable cross-linking of the polymer composition, for instance in extrusion.

Abstract: An array of electrodes at the atomic or nano scale (nanoelectrodes) is built on a chip. The spatial distribution, height, width and electrochemical composition of the nanoelectrodes is varied, such that protein-specific electronic receptors are built directly on the chip with the nanoelectrodes without the use of any specific binding agents or molecules. Because of their size, a very large number of different receptors can be built as arrays on a single chip. The chip can be used to detect, characterize and quantify single molecules in solution such as individual proteins, complex protein mixtures, DNA or other molecules.
