Abstract: A method is claimed for the regulation of the speed of rotation of rolls during the continuous casting of thin metal products between rolls. The continuous casting installation incorporates two rolls (1, 2) with parallel axes defining between them a neck (8) situated in the plane of the axes of the rolls. The speed of rotation of each roll is enslaved to a parameter representative of the difference in the tangential speeds at the neck and is regulated in a manner that ensures that these speeds are equalised. Preferably, this representative parameter is a difference in the peripheral speeds (Vt1, Vt2) measured at a point some distance from the neck.

Abstract: Cells are genetically modified to express a luminophore, e.g., a modified (F64L, S65T, Y66H) Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP,EGFP) coupled to a component of an intracellular signalling pathway such as a transcription factor, a cGMP- or cAMP-dependent protein kinase, a cyclin-, calmodulin- or phospholipid-dependent or mitogen-activated serine/threonin protein kinase, a tyrosine protein kinase, or a protein phosphatase (e.g. PKA, PKC, Erk, Smad, VASP, actin, p38, Jnk1, PKG, IkappB, CDK2, Grk5, Zap70. p85, protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1C, stat5, NFAT, NFkappaB, RhoA, PKB). An influence modulates the intracellular signaling pathway in such a way that the luminophore is being redistributed or translocated with the component in living cells in a manner experimentally determined to be correlated to the degree of influence. Measurement of redistribution is performed by recording of light intensity, fluorescense lifetime, polarization, wavelength shift, resonance energy transfer, or other properties by an apparatus consisting of e.g. a fluorescence microscope and a CCD camera. Data stored as digital images are processed to numbers representing the degree of redistribution. The method can be used as a screening program for identifying a compound that modulates a component and is capable of treating a disease related to the function of the component.

Abstract: Automatic refuelling of vehicles, primarily cars, is effected by a fuelling robot. An optical sensor is disposed adjacent the fuelling robot and is adapted to detect optically the position of the fuel-tank flap of a vehicle parked for fuelling purposes, relative to the rest position of the robot head. The sensor is also adapted to detect the position of the orifice of the fuel-tank filler pipe relative to the position of the robot head. A computer receives position signals from the sensor and guides a robot-carried opening device into abutment with the fuel-tank flap to open the flap, and to effect docking of a fuelling nozzle within the fuel-tank filler pipe orifice.

Abstract: An interface arrangement including the cascade connection of a differential pre-amplifier (HPA1, HPA2) and a comparator (DA), and generally known as fast Low Voltage Differential Signal  LVDS­ circuit for interfacing electronic chips. The current standards for such a LVDS circuit specify a minimum switching threshold voltage for the small differential input signal, while the common mode input signal varies over a very large range, both at a very high frequency. This is achieved owing to the fact that the differential pre-amplifier comprises a first (HPA1) and a second (HPA2) half pre-amplifier, each receiving the arrangement inputs (INN, INP) in an opposite way. Each half pre-amplifier (HPA1/HPA2) having first input inverter means (NN1, PN1) coupling an input (INN/INP) to an output (OUT1/OUT2) thereof, and second input inverter means (NP1, PM1, PM2; PP1, NM1, NM2) coupling the other input (INP/INN) to the output via current mirror means (PM1, PM2; NM1, NM2). The output current of the second input inverter means is thereby inverted with respect to the output current of the first input inverter means. To obtain a controlled gain, the half pre-amplifier further includes a short-circuited inverter.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing position information from satellite positioning system satellites and from cellular based communication signals. In one example of a method according to the invention, a SPS receiver receives SPS signals from at least one SPS satellite. This SPS receiver is coupled to and typically integrated with a communication system which receives and transmits messages in a cell based communication system. In this method, a message is transmitted in the cell based communication signals between a communication system and a first cell based transceiver. A time measurement which represents a time of travel of a message in the cell based communication signals between the cell based transceiver and the communication system is determined. Another time measurement which represents a time of travel of the SPS signals is also determined. A position of the SPS receiver is determined from a combination of at least the time measurement which represents the time of travel of a message in the cell based communication signals and from a time measurement which represents the time of travel of the SPS signals. The cell based communication signals are capable of communicating data messages in a two-way direction in one embodiment between the cell based transceiver and the communication system.
