Abstract

The invention relates to an iminosugar prodrug compound of General Formula (I) or General Formula (II): Compounds and compositions comprising the same exhibit low toxicity and are efficacious against Lysosomal Storage Disorders (LSDs), neurodegenerative disorders and Down Syndrome. Further, by masking the iminosugar API, well documented adverse effects associated with iminosugar APIs, including diarrhoea and other gut-related issues can be minimized or even eliminated. The invention also relates to methods of treating LSDs, neurodegenerative disorders or Down Syndrome using the compounds of General Formula (I) or General Formula (II).

Abstract

A method of controlling an electricity distribution network, wherein the electricity distribution network is a mesh network including a plurality of loads and there is a voltage-source converter connected to a point in the network. The method comprises, while using the voltage-source converter to try to hold the voltage magnitude constant at said point, establishing a record of how, at said point, the real power flowing between the network and the voltage-source converter varies with variation of the reactive power that the voltage-source converter causes to flow between itself and the network, using a reactive-power value, proportional to the sum of the reactive-power draws of the loads, in order to look up a real-power value from the record, and configuring the voltage-source converter to supply into the network at said point reactive and real power at said reactive- and real-power values, respectively.

Abstract

The present invention concerns a snow stake for measuring snow depth. This invention also concerns a method of manufacturing a snow stake for measuring snow depth. The snow stake comprises an elongate body and a strip of dual-purpose emitters/detectors mechanically attached to the elongate body. Each dual-purpose emitter/detector is configured to be able to both emit light and detect light. A control unit controls the dual-purpose emitters/detectors to emit light, or detect light and switch the function of the dual-purpose emitters/detectors over the course of a measurement process. Each of the dual-purpose emitters/detectors is an LED.

Abstract

A method of non-destructive testing using Lamb waves. The method is suitable for obtaining an indication of the thickness of a structure, such as a structure comprising a composite material. The method comprises the following steps: subjecting a structure (106) to excitation so as to generate Lamb waves within a region of interest (104) within the structure, wherein the excitation is multi-frequency excitation and generates a steady-state response within the region of interest; obtaining a set of spatial domain wavefield data which defines a velocity response of a surface of the structure at a plurality of sample locations within the region of interest; transforming the spatial domain wavefield data to the frequency domain to obtain a set of frequency domain wavefield data; using the set of frequency domain wavefield data to determine a frequency-wavenumber relationship for antisymmetric mode Lamb waves generated in the region of interest; calculating a plurality of mode filters using the frequency-wavenumber relationship so determined; and using each of the mode filters so calculated to obtain an indication of the thickness of the structure at the sample points. There is also provided a non-destructive testing apparatus (100).

A method of controlling an electricity distribution network, wherein the electricity distribution network is a mesh network including a plurality of loads and there is a voltage- source converter connected to a point in the network. The method comprises, while using the voltage-source converter to try to hold the voltage magnitude constant at said point, establishing a record of how, at said point, the real power flowing between the network and the voltage-source converter varies with variation of the reactive power that the voltage-source converter causes to flow between itself and the network, using a reactive- power value, proportional to the sum of the reactive-power draws of the loads, in order to look up a real-power value from the record, and configuring the voltage-source converter to supply into the network at said point reactive and real power at said reactive- and real- power values, respectively.
