  • Publication number: 20190124878
    Abstract: Quartz is a variety of winter oilseed rape that arose from a long-term breeding program focused on key output traits of (1) winter survival, (2) seed yield and (3) financial return for farmers in this order. Breeding objectives were restricted to these 3 so as these traits could be quickly identified.

  • Patent number: 10108027
    Abstract: Method of determining configuration of interferential filtering elements for an optical device having an optical substrate for a user, includes: providing a first set of parameters representative of at least one main line of sight of the user; determining a first selected range of angles of incidence based on the first parameters; providing a second set of parameters characterizing, for the user, a range of wavelengths to be at least partially inhibited; determining a first selected range of wavelengths of incident light to be at least partially inhibited, based on the second parameters; and configuring a first selective interferential filtering element and a first zone of a surface of the optical substrate based on the first selected range of angles of incidence and wavelengths such that the first selective interferential filtering elements inhibit, at a first rate of rejection, transmission of the first selected range of wavelengths of incident light.

  • Patent number: 6443070
    Abstract: The invention concerns a floor making it possible to circulate between two vehicles connected together by an articulated connection. The floor according to the invention includes a first deck fixed to the end of one of the vehicles and a second deck fixed to the end of the other vehicle. These two fixed decks are each partially covered by a movable deck, and are connected to each other by two deformable members including links and connecting rods. The movable deck is thus guided kinematically by the deformable parallelogram during the movements of the vehicles, notably when going round bends.
