Abstract: A self-resetting bypass control circuit is disclosed for use with scan testing of integrated circuits. The bypass control circuit includes a shift register and an OR gate. A test-enable signal is input to the shift register and to the OR gate, and the output of the shift register is also input to the OR gate. The output of the OR gate is a bypass signal that goes logic high immediately when the test enable signal goes logic high, that stays logic high while the test enable signal goes logic low momentarily, and that resets to logic low when the test enable signal goes logic low for an extended period of time.

Abstract: An apparatus and related method are disclosed, for receiving, maintaining and growing biological cells ex vivo within a portable cassette, without exposing the cells to the external environment. The portable cassette is used in combination with a processor instrument that facilitates an initial inoculation of the cassette with cells of the kind to be grown and to distribute those cells in a predeterminded pattern (e.g., uniformly) throughout a cell growth chamber. Thereafter, the portable cassette is used in combination with an incubator instrument that incubates the cell growth chamber so that the cells are optimally expanded. The same processor instrument then is used to harvest the expanded cells from the portable cassette. Both instruments are configured to condition the portable cassette during stages of the cell growth process, without disturbing the cassette's sterile system. In addition, an updatable memory device associated with the cassette stores significant information about the cassette and its condition during the various steps of the cell growth process. Such information is useful both for subsequent archival purposes and for facilitating a resumption of the cell growth process in the event of any instrument failure or significant alarm condition.

Abstract: The invention refers to a method and a device for generation of mechanical work and, if desired, heat in an evaporative gas turbine process, comprising compression of air in at least one stage, transport of said air with water to a combustion chamber for combustion together with fuel and discharge of the combustion exhaust gases to a gas turbine following thereto for generation of mechanical work and heat, if desired, of the compressed air only a partial flow being humidified by addition of water while the rest of the air flow being carried to the combustion chamber without passing through the humidifier. The invention suggests that the partial air flow to be humidified constitutes less than half of the total flow of compressed air and is subjected to a high-rate humidification to a moisture content of above 0.3 kgms water per kgms dry air.

Abstract: The centre of gravity (S) can be deployed between at least two positions (10,11) using a roller weight (9) to move between the two positions within the swimming float. The weight roller should be guided in both vertical and lateral directions and has a peripheral groove (17) to be engaged by a guide rail (16) as assisted by height guide rails (21) and one or more holddowns (23). The two positions (10,11) are defined by endstops (12,13) and limited inwards by endstops (14,15), fitted in turn to the side rail (16). When in its righthand setting near the head (2) of the float, the weight roller lines up the centre of gravity so it floats horizontal in the water as opposed to the rear setting (11) in which both head and adjoining body portion emerge from the water, using the endstop (13) in this case to stabilise the float.

Abstract: A cranial spring clip for attaching a bone flap to a skull is disclosed. The clip includes a substantially flat flap clipping portion, a substantially flat skull clipping portion, an extension disposed between, connecting, and substantially perpendicular to the flap clipping and the skull clipping portions, at least one burr attached to the extension, and a fastening element. When the clip is implanted, the topography of the flap clipping and skull clipping portions, the only parts of the clip above the outer table of the skull, provides the clip with a low profile. At least a portion of the extension is resilient in nature so that, the resilient portion flexes inward upon insertion in the saw gap and then flexes back to fix the clip in place. The burr penetrates the skull to also fix the clip in place. As the extension has a length that is shorter than the thickness of the skull and the bone flap, there is minimal possibility of accidental injury to the brain. The fastening element can be located on the extension so that it is substantially perpendicular to the extension when implanted. Alternatively, the fastening element is located on the flap clipping portion so that it is substantially perpendicular to the flap clipping portion. In one embodiment, the extension is substantially flat, while in another, the extension is U-shaped.
