Abstract:
The present invention relates to new IL-11 muteins of which site I hydrophobocity has been increased. These muteins act as IL-11 agonist or hyperagonist, and are notably useful as anti-thrombocytopenia agents, and as agents improving the resistance of an organism to the deleterious in vivo effects induced by radiation or chemotherapy during the treatment of cancer or for the preparation of patient to transplantation.
Abstract:
A fast handoff method of an Access Router includes receiving and storing at an Access Point a Router Advertisement message periodically sent from the Access Router to which the Access Point is connected, the Access Point being connected to at least one mobile node in wireless manner and supporting services to the at least one mobile node; generating at least one Care-of Address (CoA) at the Access Point, performing Duplicate Address detection, and storing the CoAs for which the Duplicate Address detection is successfully completed; forming, when a new mobile node enters a service-available range of the Access Point, a link to the new mobile node at the Access Point, including any of the stored CoAs in the Router Advertisement message, and sending the Router Advertisement message including the stored CoA to the new mobile node; and communicating the new mobile node to a network using the CoA included in the sent Router Advertisement message.

Abstract:
A motor drive assembly has a motor, a gearbox and a control module. The control module has a printed circuit board, flat contacts formed on the PCB and a micro control unit mounted to the PCB. The flat contacts are resiliently pressed by respective motor terminals to establish electrical connection. The micro control unit comprises a data processing unit for processing signals from a sensor such as Hall sensors and a analog drive unit for operating a relay that controls the electrical connection between the flat contacts and an external power supply.
Abstract:
A pipeline cleaning and renovating method of the present invention comprises introduction of abrasive particulates by pressurized air through the pipelines to remove the incrustation adhering to the inner surface of the pipelines. Water or other liquids are introduced into the pipelines to generate or increase a moisture content in a flow of the pressurized air. The air flow through the pipelines is controlled to induce a substantially helical flow pattern such that a substantial amount of abrasive particulates are driven by the air flow to move along the inner surface of the pipeline in order to efficiently remove the incrustation. After the pipelines are cleaned, a coating material is added into the pipelines and driven by the air flow in the substantially helical flow pattern to provide an even coating film on the cleaned inner surface of the pipelines. This method can be broadly applied to various types of pipelines and various diameters of the pipelines from 13 mm to 300 mm. The length of the pipeline being cleaned at one time can be from several hundred meters to more than one kilometer, depending on the type of pipeline.
