20150068261 | ACTIVE RECONFIGURABLE STRETCH FORMING - This invention concerns an active reconfigurable stretch forming tool, and in another aspect the invention is a method of stretch forming. The tool comprises an array of extensible shape forming elements which are driven in extension to produce the same force per unit area across a workpiece during shape forming. An array of limit switches are located in front of the array of shape forming elements, such that each shape forming element is driven in extension towards a respective limit switch during shape forming. In use, each limit switch is activated by the workpiece as it is shaped and each switch, upon activation, prevents further extension of the respective driven element. The tool and method are useful in the forming of three dimensional shapes in solid sheet metal or mesh, to produce panels for reflector antennas. | 03-12-2015 |
20140326078 | OPTICAL SENSING APPARATUS - The present disclosure provides an optical sensing apparatus for measuring a change in a first property. The optical sensing apparatus comprises first and second optical fibre portions and a sensing region for exposing both the first and second optical fibre portions to a change in an applied force. The force is, or is related to, the first property and has a component that is transversal to the optical fibre portions. The apparatus further comprises a holder for holding the first and second optical fibre portions in the sensing region. The first and second optical fibre portions are arranged relative to each other such that the change in the force results in a first change of an optical property of the first optical fibre portion and in a second change of the optical property of the second optical fibre portion and wherein the first change differs from the second change. | 11-06-2014 |
20130305923 | GAS LIQUID CONTACTOR - A gas and liquid contacting vessel comprises a distributor apparatus. The distributor apparatus comprising at least one housing rotatable about an axis of the housing for receiving liquid. Each rotatable housing having a distributor region comprising at least one liquid outlet or arrangement of liquid outlets formed in the housing from which liquid is projected from the housing as at least one liquid sheet onto an inner wall of the vessel. A pressurised source of liquid such as via a pump for providing liquid through the liquid outlets in the distributor apparatus to project liquid from the housing at least initially, in a stream of liquid extending continuously along the length of the liquid outlet corresponding to the inner wall of the vessel, and a gas inlet communicating with the gas liquid contacting space, the gas inlet directing gas into contact with the liquid sheets projected from the outlets in the housing. | 11-21-2013 |
20130276170 | FIBER SELECTIVE PROMOTERS - The present invention relates to materials and methods for the expression of a gene of interest selectively in cotton fibers. In particular, the invention provides an expression cassette for regulating fiber-selective expression in plants. | 10-17-2013 |
20120192322 | Grapevine plant named 'M 48-42' - A new and distinct variety of diploid grapevine is provided which abundantly forms early-ripening juicy relatively large bunches of small substantially spherical berries that develop an intense black-purple coloration upon maturity. A propensity for high stenospermocarpic fruit production is displayed. Superior resistance to downy mildew and powdery mildew has been observed during evaluations to date. The plant is particularly well suited for the production of dried currants. The fruit also can be used in the table grape market or be used to make wine or grape juice. | 07-26-2012 |
20100167040 | IDENTIFICATION OF A NOVEL TYPE OF SUCROSE SYNTHASE AND USE THEREOF IN FIBER MODIFICATION - Methods and means are described to modify fiber characteristics in a fiber producing plant, such as cotton, based on the use of a novel type of sucrose synthase protein or related nucleic acids. | 07-01-2010 |
20100093104 | Method and apparatus for positioning nano-particles - A method of positioning a sample at a desired location relative to a magnetic sensor, for measurement of magnetic characteristics of the sample. A sample mounting substrate is provided, and an amphifunctional molecule is bound to the sample mounting substrate at the desired location. The amphifunctional molecule has a portion for binding to the sample mounting substrate, and a portion for capturing the sample. The sample is then provided for capture by the amphifunctional molecule. | 04-15-2010 |
20090303473 | Method of monitoring and controlling of mixing processes - A method for determining the degree of mixing between components in a mixing process, the method including the steps of: a) mixing at least two components and at least two luminescent materials to form a mixture, wherein the luminescent materials are added to the mixture separately from each other, and wherein each luminescent material has a uniquely detectable luminescence emission wavelength; b) detecting emitted luminescence from a sample of the mixture, wherein the emitted luminescence includes different luminescence intensities at the uniquely detectable luminescence emission wavelengths of the luminescent materials; c) wherein the ratio of luminescence intensities and/or the absolute or relative intensities of luminescence at the uniquely detectable luminescence emission wavelengths is indicative of the degree of mixing between the components. | 12-10-2009 |
20090303053 | Method and System for Controlling Termites - A method of controlling pest termites. A vibrational signal which is perceptible to and behaviourally influential upon the pest termites is generated, and coupled into a medium for perception by the pest termites. Repellent termite alarm signals may be utilised. A new type of foraging signal is disclosed and may be applied to lure termites to a bait. | 12-10-2009 |
20090292265 | MOISTURE MONITOR SYSTEM FOR DIAPERS AND ALIKE - The present invention relates to a system suitable for monitoring multiple leakage events such as wetting of a diaper or alike sanitary product. The system includes two or more than two electrodes that are supported in a spaced apart relationship and a liquid permeable substrate between the electrodes that lacks or has a low capacity for holding or storing liquid. In the event of liquid leakage, an electrical bridge connecting the electrodes can be formed by the liquid, and before the product becomes saturated liquid can freely drain from the permeable substrate and disconnect the electrodes. Upon further liquid leakage, electrical connection between the electrodes can be reformed indicating multiple liquid leakage events. In the situation where the sanitary product becomes saturated and liquid is prevented from draining from the permeable substrate, the electrical connection will continue, indicating that the sanitary product requires changing. | 11-26-2009 |
20090162393 | Vaccine composition and uses thereof - The present invention provides a vaccine composition including a nucleic acid that encodes an amoeba-derived antigen (or a peptide molecule encoded thereby), or fragments or variants thereof.
