摘要:
A process for preparing a proppant charge comprising individual sand particles coated with a pre-cured thermosettable resin. Sand is mixed with melted resin, and the resin-coated sand is heated under conditions which cure the resin. Mixing is carried out with sufficient mechanical shearing action to limit agglomeration of the resin-coated sand particles.

The present invention provides methods for preventing low train voltages and managing interference, thereby improving the efficiency, reliability, and passenger comfort associated with commuter trains. An algorithm implementing neural network technology is used to predict low voltages before they occur. Once voltages are predicted, then multiple trains can be controlled to prevent low voltage events. Further, algorithms for managing inference are presented in the present invention. Different types of interference problems are addressed in the present invention such as “Interference During Acceleration”, “Interference Near Station Stops”, and “Interference During Delay Recovery.” Managing such interference avoids unnecessary brake/acceleration cycles during acceleration, immediately before station stops, and after substantial delays. Algorithms are demonstrated to avoid oscillatory brake/acceleration cycles due to interference and to smooth the trajectories of closely following trains. This is achieved by maintaining sufficient following distances to avoid unnecessary braking/accelerating. These methods generate smooth train trajectories, making for a more comfortable ride, and improve train motor reliability by avoiding unnecessary mode-changes between propulsion and braking. These algorithms can also have a favorable impact on traction power system requirements and energy consumption.

Software systems, arrangements and processes for evaluating an image associated with at least one portion of an anatomical structure are provided. For example, first information associated with the at least one portion of the anatomical structure second information associated with the at least one portion of the anatomical structure can be received. Third information can be generated by determining a relationship between the first information and the second information. Further, the image can be evaluated using a predetermined pathological scoring criteria and the third information.

A transfer seat base for a vehicle, including a rail frame having rails; a carriage frame positioned to ride along the rails and configured for receipt of a seat mounted thereto; a powered motive mechanism for, upon actuation, longitudinally moving the carriage frame along the rails between a forward driving position and a rearward occupant transfer position; a locking mechanism operable upon cessation of actuation of the motive mechanism to automatically lock the carriage frame against longitudinal movement at various positions between the forward driving position and rearward occupant transfer position.

摘要:
A musical instrument comprises a tremolo apparatus which may be converted from a semi-floating mode in which a spring urged stop engages a movable sustain block in some positions thereof to a free-floating mode in which the spring-urged stop does not engage the sustain block in any position thereof. The spring-urged stop is provided with a releasable latch for latching it into the non-engaging position, the latch including a bayonet joint. An indicator apparatus indicates the position of the sustain block relative to a fixed reference target, to enable rapid location of the sustain block for the tuned position of the strings of the instrument. A pusher block of magnetic material is provided for insertion between the sustain block and the spring-urged stop for assistance in urging the spring to the position in which it is locked out of engagement with the sustain block, to establish the free-floating mode.
摘要:
A composite brazing material is described, composed of a layer (usually an ingot) of high manganese content aluminum alloy (3000 series alloy; the "core") and a layer of high silicon content aluminum alloy (4000 series alloy; the "cladding") with a layer of aluminum alloy having the following composition:______________________________________ silicon 6.8-8.2 wgt. % iron up to 0.8 wgt. % copper up to 0.25 wgt. % manganese up to 0.10 wgt. % zinc up to 0.20 wgt. % other elements up to 0.15 wgt. % aluminum balance ______________________________________ disposed between the cladding and core layers and in contact with both. Subsequent hot rolling of the multi-layer composite produces a good bond between the core and the cladding through the intermediate layer. The resulting brazing material has the external properties of a simple two-layer composite of core and cladding without the intermediate layer. The three layer composite of the present invention, however, has a much stronger interlayer bond and is not subject to the serious delamination or bond failures of the prior art two-layer materials. Additional composite layers can also be used, with a layer of the intermediate alloy as described herein placed between each successive pair of the 3000 and 4000 series alloy layers. One typical configuration is composed of a 3003 core, clad each side with 4104 alloy sheets and with a 4343 intermediate alloy sheet on either side of the core between the core and each cladding sheet.
