A stabilization arrangement for stabilization of an antenna mast

Abstract: A stabilization arrangement (10) for stabilizing an antenna mast (3), comprising an antenna mast (3) and a gyroscopic stabilizer device (12), wherein the gyroscopic stabilizer device (12) in turn comprises a flywheel (11), a flywheel axis (14), wherein the flywheel (11) is arranged about the flywheel axis (14), and a gimbal structure (13), wherein the flywheel (11) is suspended in the gimbal structure (13) and the gimbal structure (13) is configured to permit flywheel precession or tilting about at least one gimbal output axis (16). The gyroscopic stabilizer device (12) is fixedly arranged in connection to a first end portion (31) of the antenna mast (3) and the antenna mast (3) is fastenable to a supporting structure at a second end portion (32) of the antenna mast (3), wherein the gyroscopic stabilizer device (12) is configured to reduce movements in a plane perpendicular to the extension of the antenna mast (3).

What software engineering can learn from research on affect in social psychology

Abstract: Social psychology researchers have, traditionally, focused on the construct of thinking rather than on feeling. Since the beginning of the 21st century, social science researchers have, however, increasingly explored the effects of affect. Their work has repeatedly recognized that affects play a crucial role in determining people's behavior. In this short paper, we argue that software engineering studies on affect would benefit from using more of the knowledge that social science researchers have acquired. Without accounting for their findings, we risk re-inventing the wheel. Also, without a profound understanding of the complex interplay between social context and affect, we risk creating overly simplistic solutions that might have considerable long-term adverse effects for software engineers.

Support structure for a screen

Abstract: According to the invention there is provided an elongate support member (5) for use in a support structure for a screen (80) made from flexible screen material, said support member (5) being adapted to receive one or more elongate rolls (50) of said screen material, wherein said support member is a visually impenetrable beam whose sectional configuration defines an open W-shaped or M-shaped profile.

Gate driver circuit for a monolithic microwave integrated circuit power converter

Abstract: The invention provides a power converter comprising a gate driver circuit (300) and a DC/DC converter, the gate driver circuit (300) is arranged to supply the DC/DC converter with a switching voltage. Both the gate driver circuit (300) and the DC/DC converter comprise at least one transistor (301-303) and at least one further component (315,321). The DC/DC converter being arranged to convert an input voltage V in to an output voltage V out and to supply V out to a load. The gate driver circuit (300) is designed such that the transistors are in the form of transistors being suitable for being manufactured in an MMIC-process (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit) or RFIC-process (Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit).
