Inventor: DUPAS ANDRE
IPC: G01N27/24
Filed: 2002-06-11
Abstract: Pre-stressed cables (3) and a hydraulic binding grout (4) are contained in a sheath (2) and used to support concrete art works. Grout abnormalities or cavities containing air or water may lead to cable failure and are detectable by portable equipment (5) which has cylindrical electrodes (11, 12) connected (13, 14) to an oscillator (15). The oscillator produces varying frequencies which depend on the inter electrode capacitance and hence grout condition. <??>An Independent claim is included for equipment which uses the oscillator and electrode method for detecting grout abnormalities.

Patent EP-1449076-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HOOGERBRUGGE JAN
IPC: G06F9/46
Filed: 2002-10-28
Abstract: The invention is based on the idea that for a large data structure with N entries, memory space for the locks corresponding to said entries can be saved by performing a hashing function on a value that represents an entry into a hashed value 1 to M. This hashed value is used to index the table of M locks. The value of M is typically much smaller than the value of N thereby reducing memory space requirements. If M is chosen large enough and a good hashing function is selected problems with collisions will be very small. Additionally, problems relating to deadlock occurring, when the hashed value of a second entry equals the hashed value of the a first entry, are being addressed by swapping said hashed values of said first and second entry, when the hashed value of the second entry is smaller than the hashed value of the first entry.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a heat exchanger in which a header in
the heat exchanger is made of a material of plastic so that a
regulator plate to define a passage of pipe can be formed
freely. Also, not only a passage between pipes but also a
passage between fine tubes in the same pipe can be formed.
Accordingly, formation of a passage to accomplish maximal heat
exchange efficiency is possible. 
     In addition, the heat exchange performance is improved by
forming a more number of fine tubes having a less small
diameter, compared to the pipes of the material of aluminum,
using the pipes of the material of plastic. 
     The heat exchanger according to the present invention
constructed as above can accomplish the improvement of heat
exchange performance by the maximum of 30% over the heat
exchanger of the material of aluminum.

Abstract: The invention provides an indirect pressure sensing system for non-invasive measurement of primary pressure in a sealed container, which communicates primary pressure changes from within the container, via a flexible diaphragm, to a secondary chamber wherein there is a defined relationship between the primary and secondary pressures, which enables a pressure sensor in the secondary chamber to generate a signal representing primary pressure in the sealed container, but to remain isolated from the contents of the sealed container. The pressure sensor can provide electrical outputs representing the pressure detected, and the outputs are fed to data processing means capable of producing a measurement of primary pressure. The system can have a liquid culture of cellular material (eg. micro organisms, plant tissue cells, animal cells etc) partially filling the container, whereby the metabolism and/or growth of cellular material causes gas exchanges between liquid and headspace, which can result in primary pressure changes.
