摘要： A gap tolerant merge element for contiguous-disk bubble devices is disclosed. The merge element includes one input track with a tip portion substantially facing the cusp portion of a second input track to form a merge region. An output track is associated with the merge region. In a preferred embodiment, the merge element is passive and does not have a conductor. In another embodiment, the merge element is active and does have a conductor.

摘要： An improved contact material for use in the fabrication of semiconductor devices is provided. This material comprises one of the mercury chalcogenides. The application of this material to a nondegenerate semiconductor may be made by the process of evaporation. The resulting contact is stable in the atmosphere, and is more electronegative than the best contact material, namely gold, that is now used.

摘要： Trafficked surfaces built on foundations which remain substantially undisturbed during seasonal climatic cycles, particularly in permafrost and near permafrost regions where considerable disturbance of the ground beneath foundations is otherwise common. The foundations include combinations of insulation layers, heat sinks and/or thermal bleeds which dampen and prevent the cyclic climatic seasonal variations from affecting the earthen support under the foundations, in both cut and fill sections, and in embankments and backfills adjacent the sections.

摘要： A data recording disk file is provided with a fixed block architecture sector format that eliminates the ID region. The servo region contains sector identification information in the form of a start-of-track indicating mark recorded in a selected sector of each track and a start-of-sector indicating mark recorded in each sector. A full track number identifier is encoded in the position field within the servo region of each sector. A look-up table is built at format time to map bad sectors out of the disk file. The table contains entries for each cluster of contiguous bad sectors, and is searched at runtime to provide conversion of logical sector location identifiers to physical sector location identifiers.

摘要： A method and means is described for writing data on a recording medium, such as a disk or tape, containing servo samples in such manner that the number of servo samples is increased with a minimal increase in overhead (non-data) regions. The tracks on the medium are divided into a plurality of maxi sections, each of which contains all fields with servo and associated overhead information and also a data field. At least one micro servo section containing only a portion of said information is located within each data field.As each micro servo section passes by an associated recording head, writing and reading of data is temporarily interrupted, but resumed when the micro servo section moves beyond the head, in such manner as to require minimal resynchronization of said data during reading.Using a phase continuous clock, data is written in both portions of a data field to either side of each micro servo section in one pass of the disk or tape relative to the head. The micro servo sections contain no timing reference address mark and require no data encoder/decoder flush or synchronization byte to resume reading in the portion of the data field following each micro servo section.

摘要： A dual element magnetic transducer in which the thin film MR read element is transversely biased by flux in the air gap of the inductive write core generated by a bias current supplied to the write winding. Flux in the air gap biases the MR element because different integral portions of the MR element have a different spatial relationship to parallel opposing portions of the inductive core. The flux which would normally pass through the gap substantially normal to the sides of the core defining the gap now tends to follow the MR element along a direction normal or transverse to the media to a point where the distance between the MR element and the core is smaller than where it entered. By appropriate control of the bias current and the spatial relationships, a relatively efficient, simple to manufacture dual element magnetic transducer is provided.

摘要： A method for suppressing the formation of ice in natural or man-made bodies of water such as lakes, rivers, sounds, straits, bays, shipping canals, shipping locks, harbors, and the like. The method is particularly useful in areas where ice breakers or the like cannot be efficiently operated. The method provides for direct replacement of heat lost to the atmosphere during the winter season by the use of heat transfer means such as permanent heat transfer apparatus located in and/or adjacent the sides of canals or rivers to prevent natural bridging of ice formations in the same or by the use of a traveling heat exchanger disposed in a barge, scow and the like.

摘要： An arrangement of insulating, thermal absorbing and/or dissipating elements controlling heat flow between a member and its environment. In certain permafrost environments, for example, one or more elements of the system can include a heat sink and/or a thermal bleed where the member is heated. The arrangement controls heat flow from a heated member at such a rate that the total heat transfer does not exceed the limits of the residual heat capacity of permafrost below the freezing point thereof during cyclic climatic influences. The arrangement takes advantage of the fact that artificial heat from the heated member can be controlled, while natural solar heat is balanced by the seasons. The elements also serve to maintain relatively stable temperature differentials between heated or cryogenic materials and their adjacent ground support, so there is a minimal effect of one on the other.
