Abstract: An electrical generator system is provided with a housing. A first rotor is on the housing for rotation relative to the housing in response to fluid flow through the first rotor. A second rotor is on the housing for rotation relative to the housing in response to fluid flow through the second rotor. A first armature is driven for rotation by the first rotor for rotation in a first rotary direction. A second armature is oriented coaxial with the first armature and driven for rotation by the second rotor for rotation in a second rotary direction that is opposite to the first rotary direction to generate electricity.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for managing and preventing liability issues relating to regulating usage and control of controlled substances. Systems include various means of administering controlled substances that are designed to prevent misuse and injury. Methods include various means of controlling dosage and preventing usage by minors or unapproved consumers. Methods include transparent labeling wherein all ingredients are clearly labeled and described as well as any potential health risks associated with use on the product packaging. Methods also include product marking tracing scenarios.

Abstract: A diaphragm valve is provided, in which there is improved sealing of a closing cover (15) against the valve housing (3). The seal includes a cylindrical sealing washer (25), which is connected to the valve housing (3) in one piece and into which a cylindrical wall section (18) of the closing cover (15) can be inserted with press fit.

Abstract: An astragal boot is mounted onto a lower end of an astragal disposed on a free end of a semi-active door in a double-door set disposed over a threshold. The astragal boot includes a platform and a pair of lateral fins spaced from one another and being flexible and projecting downwardly from the platform to seal against the threshold. Primary fins are flexible and project downwardly from the platform a greater distance than the lateral fins and are joined to and extend between the lateral fins. The lateral fins are joined to the primary fins and hold the primary fins into sealing engagement with the threshold to prevent the penetration of water between the astragal boot and the threshold. The lateral fins hold the primary fins against the threshold because the primary fins are thinner thereby minimizing the effort required to close the semi-active door over the threshold.

Abstract: Pipeline data and satellite data are used to provide surveillance for a pipeline. The satellite data is integrated with the pipeline data to produce a current pipeline map. The current pipeline map is then compared with a previous pipeline map to determine whether the route of the pipeline or a surrounding environment of the pipeline has changed. The satellite data includes very high resolution (VHR) satellite imagery and the pipeline data includes location data that is a series of global positioning system (GPS) coordinates.

Abstract: A composite holographic element (10) comprises a substrate (11) having on one surface (12) a relief pattern providing a holographic image when viewed in reflection, a partially reflective layer (14) facing the said surface, and a thin optically absorbent layer (13) adjacent the substrate.

Abstract: A batchwise process for dyeing hydrophobic fibres at 110.degree. C. to 135.degree. C. with a disperse dye in the presence of an adduct of an average of 1 to 4 molar proportions of ethylene oxide, propylene oxide or styrene oxide or a combination of these oxides with 1 molar proportion of a phenol compound having the formula ##STR1## in which n is a number from 1 to 4,R.sub.1 is hydrogen, chlorine an alkyl group with 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group with 1 to 8 carbon atoms or an alkenyl group with 2 to 8 carbon atoms.R.sub.

Abstract: A process for the colouration of polyacrylonitrile textile fibres, wherein said fibres are coloured by printing or pad-steaming with a cationic dye in the presence of a carrier consisting of least one compound having the formula ##EQU1## in which Y is an oxygen or sulphur atom and m is a number from 1 to 2, obtaining on said fibres a rapid fixation of the cationic dye and a high colour yield.
