Abstract: A device with several points of closure securement, particularly for a sectional closure, of the type comprising a central bolting member (1) for example a lock, and at least one blade (2) for actuating a closure securement block (3). Each actuating blade (2) is in at least two portions (4a, 4b) connected successively by a connecting member (5) with double articulation (6a, 6b), so as to permit the articulation of the sections (A, B) of the closure at least in the open and closed positions of the closure.

Abstract: The provision of methods and apparatus to determine package identity for an application build. The idea is based on providing a mapping of package with affiliated attributes such as paths used for include or linking, along with reverse mappings. This mapping could be provided through any number of conventional environments such as program development environments or operating system registries: Tools would access this information through a programmatic interface, and use that information to identify packages affiliated with some information. For example, a symbol in a program would be defined in some file. That file would be in a path, which maps to the package identity. Thus, the symbol definition can be conceptually affiliated with a package.

Abstract: A system and method for processing documents, such as XML documents, wherein the method includes the steps of: receiving a query comprising search criteria; receiving at least a portion of a document; modifying the search criteria such that constraints specifying a backward relation may be reformulated into constraints specifying a forward relation; processing the document using the modified criteria; and locating one or more nodes that satisfy the search criteria; and, emitting the selected nodes as output.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a non-iterative method of processing seismic traces. A constrained High Resolution Radon decomposition is performed at various frequencies in which the Radon decomposition at a given frequency is constrained as a function of the Radon decomposition at at least a lower frequency. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope of meaning of the claims.

Abstract: A coating (22) with a high coefficient of friction and low thermal conductivity covers a turbomachine low pressure shaft (12) in the vicinity (17) of a concentric high pressure shaft (11), in the area at which high friction contact between the two shafts could occur if a bearing (13) on the low pressure shaft (12) breaks following a failure causing the appearance of an out-of-balance mass. Friction would also more quickly equalize shaft speeds and reduce overheating in them.

Abstract: This invention relates to a protective box for the sterilization of organic material. The box includes a box body adapted to receive and immobilize a packing, a box lid fitting on the body and forming, internally, at least one protuberance for cooperation with the capsule of the packing, removable connecting means designed to bring the body and the lid relatively closer axially when the box is closed, and at least one opening provided in the body and/or the lid to place the inner volume of the closed box in relation with the ambiant medium. The invention is more particularly applicable to bone transplants.
