摘要:
A pipeline extending laterally from a main pipeline is inspected from the main line by utilizing an everted hose originally located in the main pipeline to project a TV camera into and along the lateral pipeline.

The invention provides that a resin impregnated lining tube is applied to a pipeline or passageway surface to which have been pre-applied pads impregnated with the same resin, so that the resin impregnated pads bond to the liner as curing of the resin takes place.

The invention provides that a flexible liner is everted into a passageway to line same using liquid under pressure. The liner is fed through an enclosure before it everts and eversion is achieved by pressurization of the liquid in the enclosure. The feed of the liner through the enclosure is preferably controlled by the drivable feed rollers through a nip of which the liner passes. The rollers preferably have projections which engage the liner positively to engage the liner. The invention has particular applicability to the placement of liners which although flexible and evertible when being installed, set hard when in position lining the passageway.

An offshore platform support structure having a column structure including at least two sections, each section being joined to a vertically adjacent section by a plurality of circumferentially arranged joints defining a plurality of hinge axes lying in a plane substantially normal to the vertical axis of the column structure, to permit yielding tilting about any one of the hinge axis in response to excessive lateral forces exerted against the column structure, and the structure further including damping means arranged to control the rate of return of said sections to the initial position from a relatively tilted position.

A power generating system for the generation of energy from the wave motions of the sea is buoyantly supported by the sea. The system comprises spine elements defining a spine on which ducks are rockably mounted, the system further including tension cable means pressing the spine elements towards each other thereby to define a spine, and energy conversion means for converting the rocking motion into electrical power.

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for context and action-based application design. A method for implementing a business application includes, in a computer system having a context repository in which at least two context templates can be stored, each of the context templates representing a meta-model of a business situation, and an action repository in which at least two action definitions can be stored, which action definitions define at least an input or output of a service, instantiating a context based on a context template stored in the context repository such that the instantiated context can be a model of a business situation, associating at least one action definition with the instantiated context, and mapping at least one parameter of the instantiated context with at least one input or output parameter of the associated action definitions and using the mapped parameter as input data to the service or outputting data from the service to the parameter when the business application can be running.
摘要:
Methods and apparatuses provide contextual awareness to a groupware client with respect to an enterprise backend system. The groupware client generates a query or request for data within a context of the groupware client. A backend determines the context, which may include processing an indication of the context received with the query. Data is selectively chosen based on the context, and the selected data is provided to the groupware client to fulfill the request. In one embodiment, the backend determines a permission associated with the context.

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods and apparatuses facilitating groupware creation of a travel itinerary. The present invention enables querying of a backend application with an identifier of a groupware user. A past travel itinerary based on the identifier is retrieved to populate a template used to create a current travel itinerary. The template may be a graphical user interface representation of a workflow object. The user provides additional information regarding the trip. The information is submitted to the backend application, which determines options for each itinerary component (e.g. flight, car rental, and hotel) and a best match option for each component. The groupware client enables the user to select from the options to create a tentative travel itinerary. The groupware client may also enable the user to submit the tentative travel itinerary to another groupware user for approval, e.g. a supervisor.
