Abstract: A belt including notches alternating with bushings on its inside surface is arranged around a disk, so as to encase it and to squeeze its periphery, the bushings penetrating into slot necks designed to house blade roots, so as to apply an elastic tightening force on the teeth and prevent fatigue cracks from forming during inertial friction welding of the disk with other parts of the rotor, these cracks possibly appearing at fillet connections of the teeth to the central part of the disk. The belt is made from elastic polymer with good internal viscosity, and damping properties.

Abstract: When layered coded content is transmitted over a fixed capacity network link, bitrate peaks may occur at similar time instances at the base layer and enhancement layer. To more efficiently use the bandwidth, the present principles propose different methods, such as adding a delay to a base layer bit stream or an enhancement layer bit stream, and shifting an “over-the-limit” portion of bits by a time window. At the receiver side, the present principles provide different channel change mechanisms to allow a user to change channel quickly even given the delay added in the bit streams. In particular, a decoder can start rendering the base layer content, without having to wait for the enhancement layer to be available. In one embodiment, the decoding of the base layer content is slowed down in order to align in time with the enhancement layer content.
