Abstract: The invention relates to a ringed tubular sheath including at least one internal means (5) for clamping a tube (11) in particular, and more specifically a smooth tube, located inside said sheath, said sheath being unique in that at least one flexible area (8) is associated with the internal clamping means (5). The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing such a sheath, and to a method for maintaining a ringed tubular sheath on a tube (11), in which: a ringed tubular sheath is used according to the invention; the flexible area(s) (8) are controlled such as to the deform the sheath; the tube (11) is inserted in the ringed tubular sheath, and the flexible area(s) (8) are then released.

Abstract: A method for production of hydrogen from organic matter, includes: pyrolysis of a feed of organic matter by passing a gaseous treatment stream essentially having carbon dioxide through the organic matter, the pyrolysis producing, on the one hand, a pyrolysis gas stream having the gaseous treatment stream, steam and volatile organic compounds originating from the organic matter, and on the other hand pyrolysis chars having carbon components; oxycombustion of at least a proportion of the volatile organic compounds present in the pyrolysis gas stream, by injection of oxygen, upstream of a layer of redox filtering matter comprising high-temperature carbon components; and after the oxycombustion, passing the oxidized pyrolysis gas stream through the redox layer, the passage producing a synthesis gas stream comprising hydrogen obtained by deoxidation of steam by the high-temperature carbon components.

Abstract: Temporally segmenting an instrumented gesture executed by a user with a terminal having an inertial navigation module, which measures a vector of inertial characteristics representative of movement of the terminal. Segmenting includes, at each current instant: calculating an instantaneous power value of the vector; estimating a gesture indicator based on variation between the instantaneous power value and a mean power value estimated over a preceding time window; determining a start of gesture at a first instant, when the estimated gesture indicator is greater than or equal to a first threshold during a time interval greater than or equal to a first interval; and determining an end of gesture at a second instant when, at the current instant, the estimated gesture indicator is less than or equal to a second threshold during a time interval greater than or equal to a second time interval.

Abstract: Method of reducing acoustic vibratory phenomena in the environment of a combustion chamber of a turbomachine, said chamber being positioned in a cavity delimited by an exterior casing and an interior chamber casing, characterized in that it includes at least the following steps: producing an analysis of at least one vibratory mode of the chamber and the cavity and identifying its resonant frequency and the associated pressure nodes and antinodes, choosing for the vibratory mode to be processed a pressure antinode existing at the level of one of the walls, installing at the level of said antinode a bleed air intake pipe, resuming the analysis of the vibratory mode and identifying the new resonant frequency, determining the length and diameter parameters for said pipe by iteration until the required frequency shift for the vibratory mode concerned is obtained.

Abstract: This present invention relates to the use of an endothelin receptor antagonist for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of early stage idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract: A coextruded polymer molding product includes a notched structural carrier and a polymer seal material over the structural carrier. The structural carrier has notches along its length A first plurality of specific regions of the structural carrier have notches. A second plurality of specific regions of the structural carrier are relieved from having notches. The notched regions and relieved regions are arranged with respect to each other such that consecutive notched regions are spaced apart at non-uniform intervals to provide desired bending characteristics for conforming to a specific molding application.

Abstract: A correct inversion formula of projections of tomography is proposed by supposing improved deformation of the object (E), that is, comprising translations, rotations and homotheties comparable to uniform dilations. Generalisations to other deformation situations of the object in question and other radiations are possible.
