摘要:
A drive system for a refrigeration compressor such as is used in a natural gas liquefaction plant, allowing the desired compressor speed and maximum turbine efficiency to be maintained throughout varying ambient temperature conditions. A gas turbine is used with an electric starter motor with drive-through capability located on a common drive shaft between the turbine and the compressor. A variable frequency drive (VFD) is connected between the electrical power grid and the electric motor for smooth startups, but also to allow excess turbine mechanical power to be converted to electrical power by the motor operating as a generator, and delivered to the grid at the grid frequency. Pulse width modulation technology may be used to reduce harmonic distortion in the VFD's output. The starter motor also functions as a helper motor when the turbine output is insufficient to drive the compressor at the rotational speed needed to meet throughput requirements.

A method for dynamically configuring a video stream, including: identifying player control metadata attributes for an input video stream, wherein the input video stream is received from an origin server; storing the identified metadata attributes to a memory device; and dynamically inserting the metadata attributes into an output video stream in real-time.

This invention relates to the use of one or more cannabinoids in the treatment of epilepsy and more particularly to the use of one or a combination of cannabinoids in the treatment of generalized or partial seizure. In one embodiment it relates to the use of the cannabinoid THCV, as a pure or isolated compound, or as a plant extract in which significant amounts of any THC naturally present has been selectively removed. In another embodiment the phytocannabinoid is CBD.

Systems and methods for downloading algorithmic elements to a coprocessor and corresponding processing and communication techniques are provided. For an improved graphics pipeline, the invention provides a class of co-processing device, such as a graphics processor unit (GPU), providing improved capabilities for an abstract or virtual machine for performing graphics calculations and rendering. The invention allows for runtime-predicated flow control of programs downloaded to coprocessors, enables coprocessors to include indexable arrays of on-chip storage elements that are readable and writable during execution of programs, provides native support for textures and texture maps and corresponding operations in a vertex shader, provides frequency division of vertex streams input to a vertex shader with optional support for a stream modulo value, provides a register storage element on a pixel shader and associated interfaces for storage associated with representing the “face” of a pixel, provides vertex shaders and pixel shaders with more on-chip register storage and the ability to receive larger programs than any existing vertex or pixel shaders and provides 32 bit float number support in both vertex and pixel shaders.

A structural support column with telescopically adjustable head, includes a base, and an elongate support member extending substantially vertically from the base. The support member has a remote end opposed to the base with a cavity. A centralizing member covers the cavity at the remote end of the support member. The centralizing member has an aperture which is axially aligned with the longitudinal axis of the support member. A levelling screw is provides having a first end with a head and a second end. The second end of the levelling screw extends through the aperture in the centralizing member and is secured against removal by a levelling nut. The first end of the levelling screw is received in the rectangular cavity at the remote end of the support member. The head at the first end of the levelling screw is received in close fitting engagement in the cavity. A support bracket is positioned at the second end of the levelling screw.

An optical reflectometer in which the output from a laser 11 is passed through a ramped phase modulator 12 and an optical fibre bi-directional coupler 13 to a transmission path 15, e.g. an optical fibre. Part of the light is coupled out to a mirror 14 and is reflected to form a local oscillator signal which is mixed in the coupler with backscattered light from the fibre. The mixed signals are applied to a detector 16.

A strain sensor providing an optical read-out that is suitable for use in electrically noisy environment or one subject to mechanical vibration consists of one or a set of single mode optical fibres wound round an expanding strain member. The principle of operation relies upon the fact that transverse straining of a single mode fibre destroys mode degeneracy thereby producing birefringence effects that can be rendered obversable using polarized light and a polarization analyzer.

A method may include receiving, from a network, a call request in a communication device, the call request including an identification of a calling party; notifying a user of the communication device of the call request; receiving an indication to deny the call request; prompting the user of the communication device, in response to receiving the indication to deny the call request, regarding automatically denying call requests having the identification of the calling party; receiving, from the user, an indication to deny call requests having the identification of the calling party; and sending an instruction to the network to automatically deny the call requests having the identification of the calling party.
