Abstract: A self-supporting electric power cable is disclosed. The electric power cable includes an outer jacket portion and a core portion. The core portion includes at least one insulated conductor and at least one supporting cord. The at least one insulated conductor includes a number of individual wires, and the at least one supporting cord includes synthetic fibers. The number of individual wires, individually or arranged in bundles, are arranged in a first lay direction. The at least one insulated conductor and the at least one supporting cord are arranged in a second lay direction. The at least one supporting cord is arranged as a separate unit in a cross sectional sector of the self-supporting electric power cable. Thus flexible and durable power cable for sea use is provided. Also an offshore arrangement is disclosed herein.

Abstract: The present invention is related to the field of breeding domestic livestock, in particular to animal nutrition for domestic livestock, more in particular to nutritional supplements and additives for breeding monogastric mammals, most specifically inorganic nitrate compounds for use in a method of improving the (re)productive performance of a female monogastric mammal. The present invention provides, among others, a method of improving the (re)productive performance of a female monogastric mammal, feed supplements and feed compositions comprising inorganic nitrate compounds.

Abstract: A battery charging system and a method for a increasing endurance of a high voltage battery in a hybrid electric vehicle includes a high voltage battery for vehicle propulsion, a generator for charging the high voltage battery, a DC/DC converter for converting a high voltage to a low voltage, a low voltage battery charged with the low voltage, and an alternator, driven by an engine, and connected with the low voltage battery in parallel with the voltage converter. The method includes registering a parameter, where the parameter is at least one of a state of charge of said high voltage battery, and energy inflow/outflow to/from said high voltage battery to said vehicle drive motor or said generator, and controlling the low voltage in dependence of the registered parameter.

Abstract: A motion of an object is controlled from a geostationary transit orbit (GTO) of an earth to an orbit of a moon. A first trajectory of the motion of the object is determined from an intermediate orbit of an earth to a neighborhood of a stable manifold of a first Lagrange point (L1). A second trajectory of the motion of the object is determined from the GTO to the intermediate orbit. A third trajectory of the motion of the object is determined from the neighborhood to the stable manifold to an L1 orbit, and a fourth trajectory of the motion of the object is determined from the L1 orbit to the orbit of the moon. A trajectory from the GTO to the orbit of the moon is determined based on a combination of the first, the second, the third, and the fourth trajectories.
