Abstract: A pump assembly with improved sealing includes an outer housing and an insert arranged therein. The insert includes a rotatable shaft and at least two pressure stages. Each pressure stage has a housing, an impeller, and a seal that separates a first pressure chamber from a second pressure chamber. At least one of the pressure stage housings includes a first casing part having a first region having an enlarged inner diameter and a second region having a reduced inner diameter, and a second casing part having at least one first portion having a reduced outer diameter and a second portion having an enlarged outer diameter. The first region surrounds the first portion and at least partially surrounds the second portion, such that an annular chamber is formed between the first casing part and the second part, with the annular chamber being connected to the second pressure chamber.

Abstract: A solution is provided that significantly reduces the complexity of existing solutions for creating interfaces in a computer system. More particularly, a middleware common to such solutions is removed and a low-level approach is taken where customer-specific logic is processed on an Extensible Stylesheet Language transformation (XSLT) processor instead. Additional transformations may also then be imported from external XSLT editors making it very easy to generate a backend configuration for interfaces.

Abstract: Provided are a system and method for generating a database scheme for storing different types of data structures. In one example, the method includes receiving a first data object having a first data structure and a second data object having a second data structure that is different than the first data structure, generating a database scheme based on the first data structure and the second data structure, wherein the generated database scheme retains information about a structure of the first data structure and a structure of the second data structure, and storing the first data object and the second data object, in a database, according to the generated database scheme. According to various aspects, by at least partially retaining the original structure of the data objects, further searching and processing may be performed on different types of data objects stored in a relational database.

Abstract: A centrifugal pump with a barrel casing and a ventilation arrangement is provided. A plug-in unit is arranged in the barrel casing. The plug-in unit has a shaft, and at least one impeller is arranged on the shaft. The impeller is enclosed by a stage casing. The stage casing separates an inner pressure space from an outer pressure space. At least one venting device is arranged in the stage casing.

Abstract: Searching for documents using different sources includes receiving a search statement containing information for the documents, and determining a search strategy based on the search statement. The search strategy includes first and second search activities for searching first and second sources, respectively, where the first and second search activities are weighted. The first and second sources are searched using the first and second search activities, respectively, where an order in which the first and second search activities are performed is dictated by weightings of the first and second search activities.

Abstract: Disclosed in a method and arrangement for performing a spatially resolved non-collinear measurement of the autocorrelation function of the first or higher order by means of a matrix of beam shaping individual elements, such that there is a local splitting of the beam into a beam matrix of conical component beams, where each component beam represents spatially integrated information regarding the partial area of the matrix through which it passes, the interference resolution is thus determined by the matrix geometry, and the interference pattern produced in space by each component beam in a certain plane imaged on a matrix camera supplies an autocorrelation function of the first order or, by utilizing non-linear interactions in a suitable medium, of a higher order accordingly, so that the coherence time or the pulse period of individual laser pulses or trains of multiple laser pulses can be determined as a function of location.
