A highly effective and also inert active penetrator, an active projectile, an active airborne body or an active multipurpose projectile with a constructively adjustable or settable relationship between penetrating power and lateral effect. The end ballistic total effect which is obtained from the penetrating depth and covering the surface or stressing of the surface is initiated in an active case by means of a releasable arrangement or installation which is independent of the position of the active body.

In a power conversion device provided with a power semiconductor device and a semiconductor driver circuit for driving the power semiconductor device, false firing can be prevented, and improvement in reliability can be achieved. The power conversion device is provided with: a first switch element inserted between a power supply voltage and an output node; a second switch element inserted between a ground power supply voltage and the output node; and a gate driver circuit for controlling turning ON / OFF of the second switch element. When the second switch element is controlled to be turned OFF, the gate driver circuit drives a gate-source voltage at, for example, a level of 0 V. However, when the first switch element is shifted from an OFF state to an ON state at a first timing in a state that the gate-source voltage is driven at, for example, the level of 0 V, the gate driver circuit temporarily applies a level of a negative voltage as the gate-source voltage during a first period which crosses over the first timing.

A pharmaceutical composition for transdermal delivery comprisingone or more physiologically active agents;one or more dermal penetration enhancers; anda volatile pharmaceutically acceptable carrier comprising a volatile solvent;and wherein the physiologically active agent and dermal penetration enhancer form an amorphous deposit upon evaporation of the volatile carrier, said amorphous deposit forming a reservoir within the stratum corneum; and(A) wherein the composition has a release rate profile of physiologically active agent so as to provide a ratio of the maximum concentration (Cmax) to the average concentration (Cavg) for the physiologically active agent over the dosage interval within the range of 1 to 10.

A triangular microphone assembly (101) for use in a vehicle accessory includes a mirror housing (106) adapted for attachment to the interior of the vehicle. A mirror is disposed in an opening of the mirror housing (106) and a plurality of virtual digital microphones (108a, 108b, 108c) are arranged in a substantially triangular configuration in the mirror housing (106). A digital signal processor (DSP) (537) is used for receiving signals from the plurality of digital microphones (108a, 108b, 108c) such that the digital microphones exhibit directional characteristics for reducing undesirable noise in at least one direction by normalizing the phase of the received signals as a function of signal frequency.

The invention relates to a method for operating a synchronous machine, comprising the following steps: determining a difference value between the rotor inductance of the synchronous machine in the polar axis direction and the rotor inductance of the synchronous machine in the pole-gap direction for each of a plurality of different 2-tuples from values of useful current adjusted in the rotor-fixed coordinate system of the synchronous machine; preparing a characteristic diagram for the determined difference values in dependence on the 2-tuples of the values of useful current; determining a torque-dependent operating-point trajectory for the 2-tuples of the values of useful current taking into account the magnitude of the determined difference values along the operating-point trajectory to be determined; and operating the synchronous machine according to the determined operating-point trajectory.

In a magnetic resonance system and a method and device for generating a control command sequence for operating the magnetic resonance system, a magnetic resonance data acquisition sequence is provided to a processor and is modified in the processor. The sequence operates the magnetic resonance system to acquire magnetic resonance data from a subject in multiple individual data acquisitions for subsequent automated evaluation of the individual data acquisitions with respect to an evaluation parameter. The individual evaluation results are combined into an overall evaluation result. The control command sequence is automatically modified in the processor by varying at least one sequence control parameter between different individual data acquisitions so that a variance of a measurement error in the overall evaluation result is minimized.

The present invention overcomes all the above drawbacks and provides a versatile method for the fabrication of multilayer hollow tubes that uses a layer-by-layer rod dipping approach using different biomaterials. The device enables fine control over fabrication parameters, such as ascending / descending speeds, rod rotational velocity, and crosslinking or polymerization time. All these technologies allows the generation of more complex multilayer hollow tubes such as vessel-like structures, urethral grafting, prostate grafting and the like.
