International Classification:

B64C 25/68

US Classification:

244110C

Abstract:

The aircraft landing arrest cable has wear resisting sleeves positioned thereon in spaced relation to each other to thereby hold the cable out of contact with a non-skid landing surface in a lowered position of the cable. Stresses imposed on the cable when engaged by a tail hook suspended from aircraft during landing, are absorbed by the wear resisting sleeves which are held clamped in positions on the cables by fluid adhesive previously injected into the sleeves. The wear resisting sleeves are respectively formed from pivotally connected sleeve sections made of an impact shatter-proof and durable material such as polyurethane with abutting edges held in contact with each other under a clamped condition of the sleeves on the cable, established by the injected adhesive.

International Classification:

A23L 1/221
A23G 4/00

US Classification:

426533, 426 3, 426534

Abstract:

Novel cooling compositions having a natural status are object of the present invention. These compositions comprise a combination of menthol, together with a nature identical ingredient and at least one natural extract. They can be added to flavoring compositions to impart cooling sensations devoid of mentholic flavoring notes.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

US Classification:

726 25

Abstract:

A method is provided for determining a rating of a likelihood of a victim system receiving malicious traffic from an attacker system at a point in time. The method comprises: generating a first forecast from a time series model based on past history of attacks by the attacker system; generating a second forecast from a victim neighborhood model based on similarity between the victim system and peer victim systems; generating a third forecast from a joint attacker-victim neighborhood model based on correlation between a group of attacker systems including the attacker system and a group of victim systems including the victim system; and determining the rating of the likelihood of the victim system receiving malicious traffic from the attacker system at the point in time based on the first forecast, the second forecast, and the third forecast.

International Classification:

A23G 4/00

US Classification:

426003000

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a flavored food product, and to a method for reducing loss of flavors in a flavored product due to heat treatments. Loss of flavors by evaporation at high temperatures could be prevented by applying coating solutions in which water and encapsulated flavors have been mixed at 0.5% to 30 wt. % of capsules based on micro-organisms, a matrix component and encapsulated flavors. The coating solution was applied in high temperature coating processes or processes including heat treatment following the coating step and resulted in surprising retention of flavors in the coated food product.

International Classification:

F28D 19/00

US Classification:

165010000

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a flavor and skin sensation composition providing a hot or warming sensation upon consumption or application, respectively. The composition comprises a hot, warming component, a cooling component and a bitter component. In an embodiment, the composition further comprises an acid component. The composition provides a clean hot taste free of oily or earthy off-notes. Consumers prefer the composition over hot, warming compositions comprising essentially natural extracts.

Assignee:

Firmenich SA - Geneva 8

International Classification:

A23L 1/221

US Classification:

426650

Abstract:

A sensate composition that includes a salivating component, a tingling component and a flavor, the salivating component being formed of at least a mixture of citric, malic and succinic acid, or one of each of their salts, and the tingling component being formed of a Jambu oleoresin, spilanthol, any extract containing either or both, and their mixtures. The sensate composition allows the preparation of consumer products having improved salivating properties.
