Abstract: The invention relates to a cooling system (1) comprising at least: a Stirling heat pump (2) designed to cool an inlet gas (Ge) down to a cryogenic temperature so as to form a cryogenic liquid (L), a primary electric motor (3), intended to put said Stirling heat pump (2) into operation, a primary pump (4) intended to cause said cryogenic liquid (L) to circulate under pressure, and a cooling means (5) intended to cool said primary electric motor (3) with the aid of the cryogenic liquid (L) output by said primary pump (4). The invention is particularly suitable for the production of a cryogenic liquid and the applications thereof.

Abstract: A computer implemented method generates a Petri Net simulation model of an industrial controls system. The method includes providing a basic Petri Net system model employing a generic component model. The system model has at least two component places for generating parameterisation tokens, at least two family places for generating component instantiation tokens, and an architecture place for generating family instantiation tokens for the family place in response to an initial token. The method further includes providing a component family library including component family data, providing a component parameter list including component parameter data for each individual component of the Industrial Control System. Furthermore, the method includes assigning a unique identifier to each component of the component parameter list, assigning each component present in the component parameter list to one component family, and instantiating the basic Petri Net model by processing the component parameter list.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for detecting analytes, including a plastic substrate at least partially covered by bonding polymers attached to the substrate in a non-covalent manner, said bonding polymers comprising a polysaccharide backbone provided with aromatic groupings and carboxylic acid groupings.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for making a ground coating made of a thermoplastic material, that comprises the steps of (a) depositing a layer of a liquid component on a substrate, the liquid component being selected from a plastisol, an organosol or an SBR rubber emulsion, (b) powdering solid particles on the liquid component layer, and (c) applying press heat in order to form a ground coating having a smooth surface. The invention also relates to a device for obtaining such coatings.
