Patent number: 11968385Abstract: An object of the embodiments is to achieve an improved reference picture handling. That is achieved by taking into account whether the reference pictures in the decoded picture buffer are long-term reference pictures or short-term reference pictures when determining how they should be marked when the information of the reference picture set is received. The reference pictures are marked as “used for short-term reference” or “used for long-term reference” in the Decoded Picture Buffer (DPB) depending on whether they are included as short-term pictures or long-term pictures in the RPS of a current picture.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Jonatan Samuelsson, Rickard Sjöberg

Publication number: 20240073412Abstract: An encoder is configured to encode a representation of a current picture of a video stream of multiple pictures. The encoder is further configured to encode, for each of a plurality of reference pictures included in a buffer description for the current picture, a respective one-bit flag according to one of two available values for the one-bit flag. The two available values for the one-bit flag include a first value explicitly indicating to a decoder to include the reference picture in a reference picture list for decoding the current picture. The two available values for the one-bit flag further include a second value explicitly indicating to the decoder not to include the reference picture in the reference picture list for decoding the current picture. The encoder is further configured to output the representation of the current picture and the one-bit flags.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 1, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Jonatan Samuelsson, Rickard Sjöberg

Patent number: 9797312Abstract: A supporting structure for a gas turbine engine includes an inner ring, an outer ring, and a plurality of circumferentially spaced, load carrying radial elements connecting the inner and outer rings. The radial elements have an airfoil shape with a leading edge directed towards the inlet side of the supporting structure, a trailing edge directed towards the outlet side of the supporting structure, and two opposite sides connecting the leading edge and the trailing edge. At least one of the radial elements includes a gas passage arrangement configured to lead a separate bleeding gas flow from the supporting structure. The gas passage arrangement includes a radially extending gas channel arranged inside the radial element and at least one opening in communication with the gas channel. The at least one opening is arranged at one of the two opposite sides of the radial element.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2012Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: GKN Aerospace Sweden ABInventors: Goran Johnsson, Rickard Samuelsson

Patent number: 9228446Abstract: A gas turbine engine component includes a ring element and a plurality of circumferentially spaced load carrying vanes extending in a radial direction of the ring element. At least one of the vanes is made of a composite material. The at least one composite vane is fastened to the ring element. The component further includes first and second wall portions that are fixed in relation to the ring element and arranged on opposite sides of the composite vane. At least a first hole extends through the first wall portion, the composite vane and the second wall portion. The first hole is adapted to receive a first insertion member. The component is arranged such as to, with regard to the first hole, provide a tight fit for the first insertion member in the first wall portion as well as in the composite vane and to provide a loose fit with a radial play in the second wall portion.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2009Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: GKN Aerospace Sweden ABInventors: Rickard Samuelsson, Robert Reimers

Patent number: 8757919Abstract: A component includes a first member, a second member and a device for fastening the first member to the second member. A first hole extends through a portion of the first member and a second hole extends through a portion of the second member. The first member and the second member are positioned such that the first hole and the second hole coincide. The fastening device includes an elongated fastening element arranged in the coinciding holes and a bushing arrangement arranged around the fastening element and adapted to establish a load transmission path between the first member and the second member. A first part of the bushing arrangement is arranged such that an inner surface thereof is positioned at a distance from an exterior surface of the fastening element for establishing a first load transmission path via the bushing arrangement and bypassing the fastening element in a first load condition.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2008Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Volvo Aero CorporationInventors: Rickard Samuelsson, Niklas Jansson

Patent number: 8459942Abstract: A gas turbine engine component is provided including at least one ring element, and a plurality of circumferentially spaced load carrying vanes extending in a radial direction of the ring element. The load carrying vanes have an internal structure with an anisotropic load carrying property, and the internal structure is configured so that a main load carrying direction is in parallel with the extension direction of the load carrying vane. The component includes a stiffening structure bridging the distance between at least two adjacent load carrying vanes in the circumferential direction of the ring element, and the at least two adjacent load carrying vanes are attached to the stiffening structure.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2008Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Volvo Aero CorporationInventors: Anders Sjunnesson, Niklas Jansson, Robert Reimers, Rickard Samuelsson

Publication number: 20120213634Abstract: In a gas turbine engine at least one vanes is made of a composite material and an end part of the vane is fastened to the ring element by at least a first bracket member arranged in a corner region formed by the vane and a ring element. The first bracket member is fastened to the vane by a first fastening device arranged in association with a first hole extending through the vane. The first bracket member is fastened to the ring element by a second fastening device arranged in association with a second hole extending through the ring element. An opening is arranged in the ring element. A second bracket member at least partly has an angular cross section. The second, angled bracket member is arranged through the opening such as to be positioned on an opposite side of both the vane and the ring element in relation to the first bracket member. The second, angled bracket member is fastened to the first bracket member by the first and second fastening devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2009Publication date: August 23, 2012Applicant: VOLVO AERO CORPORATIONInventors: Rickard Samuelsson, Robert Reimers
