  • Publication number: 20180023535
    Abstract: A method is for exploiting the energy of a water current with an energy plant. The energy plant has at least one rope extending around at least two turning stations, and carries at least one at least partially submerged foil which is approximately symmetrical around its chord. The velocity and direction of flow of the water together with the moving speed and direction of the foil gives a resulting water velocity and direction acting on the foil. The method includes pivoting the foil until it has a desired angle of attack to the resulting water direction when the foil is being displaced co-currently; and pivoting the foil until it has a desired angle of attack to the resulting water direction when the foil is being displaced counter-currently, the angle of attack being the same or different co-currently and counter-currently.

  • Publication number: 20070112291
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved cerebrospinal fluid shunt system comprising a coating covering at least part of the system and a flow restricting component exerting a passive and essentially constant resistance to flow. The present invention also relates to methods for implanting different catheters of a cerebrospinal fluid shunt system into a brain ventricle and the sinus system, respectively, of an individual. The present invention further relates to methods for shunting cerebrospinal fluid from a brain ventricle to the sinus system of an individual.

  • Patent number: 7118548
    Abstract: A cerebrospinal fluid shunt system comprises a brain ventricular catheter for insertion into the brain ventricle so as to drain cerebrospinal fluid from the brain ventricle. The system also comprises a sinus sagittalis catheter for insertion into the sinus sagittalis for feeding the cerebrospinal fluid into sinus sagittalis. A shunt main body is connected at one end thereof to the brain ventricle catheter and at another end thereof to the sinus sagittalis catheter. The shunt main body can provide fluidic communication between the brain ventricle catheter and the sinus sagittalis catheter. The system further comprises a tubular flow passage restricting member defined within the shunt main body. The tubular flow passage restricting member defines a resistance to flow of 8-12 mm Hg/ml/min.
