Abstract: A marine survey system and method for ultrahigh resolution (UHR) mapping of a marine bottom (B) below a body of water (W) by means of a frame (20) towed as a whole by one or more towing cables (12) at a distance (Xf) behind a marine vessel (10) moving over the water (W) in a movement direction (V). The frame (20) comprises a rigid framework (23) and a plurality of independent acoustic sources (21), wherein each acoustic source (21) is independently controlled to emit a separate acoustic wave (A) propagating through the water (W) and reflecting off bottom regions of the marine bottom (B) for the mapping thereof. The acoustic sources (21) are kept fixated by the rigid framework (23) at a source-to-source distance (Ys) less than four meters in a transverse direction (Y) perpendicular to the movement direction (V) of the vessel (10) to distinguish the bottom regions with an ultrahigh resolution (Ry) of less than two meters at least in the transverse direction (Y).

Abstract: An artificial gravity heating system includes a cylindrical compartment formed of a hollow cylinder having a bottom base and an open top end. An electric motor rotates the cylindrical compartment to provide centripetal motion of materials inside the cylindrical compartment. While rotating, the materials move towards an inner wall of the cylindrical compartment. A heating element is conductively coupled along an outer wall of the cylindrical compartment for heating the materials against the inner wall via conduction. A temperature sensor is operatively coupled to the cylindrical compartment for monitoring a temperature of the cylindrical compartment. A controller is configured to control operation of the heating element based on the temperature monitored via the temperature sensor. An artificial gravity heating method is used to process materials including heating ingredients to cook food. The artificial gravity heating system may also be configured as a vapor generator, dehydrator or a gasification generator.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system for enriching a flowing liquid with a dissolved gas inside a conduit. The system comprises two or more capillaries, each capillary delivering a stream of a gas-enriched liquid to the flowing liquid. The first ends of the capillaries are positioned to form an intersecting angle with respect to the effluent streams such that these streams of gas-enriched liquid collide with each other upon exit from the first ends of the capillaries, effecting localized convective mixing within the larger liquid conduit before these gas-enriched streams are able to come into close contact with the boundary surfaces of the conduit, whereby the gas-enriched liquid mixes with the flowing liquid to form a gas-enriched flowing liquid. In the preferred embodiment, no observable bubbles are formed in the gas-enriched flowing liquid. Methods of making and using such system are also provided.

Abstract: A system implements an emergent web space to bind a host computer to one or more client computers. A host computer generates data aspects of characteristically random data to create emergent web spaces in which website resources can be rendered by one or more client computers intersecting the same emergent web spaces. A binding is established between the host computer and one or more client computers when a block of true random data generated by the host computer is provided to the one or more client computers. A unique block of true random data together with the remote storage of data aspects constitutes a zone. A software application executing on the one or more client computers is configured to retrieve data aspects from within the same zone, and further configured to resolve and then render website resources.

The first container includes a projection extending away from the first container along a stacking direction. An edge portion extends from the projection along a plane substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction. The second container includes a recess.

A bias control circuit includes an on-state bias control circuit (806), a first off-state bias control circuit, and a second off-state bias control circuit to provide bias voltages to control terminals of the plurality of cascode transistors. The on-state bias control circuit (806) controls the bias voltages during operation. In a first off-state, an electrostatic charge may cause a destructive voltage on the output node (816). The first off-state bias circuit (808) generates bias voltages based on the electrostatic charge. A second off-state condition occurs in an inactive amplifier circuit coupled to an output node on which a voltage is generated by a parallel active amplifier circuit coupled to the output node (816).
