    Abstract: A system for performing minimally invasive cardiac procedures. The system includes a pair of surgical instruments that are coupled to a pair of robotic arms. The instruments have end effectors that can be manipulated to hold and suture tissue. The robotic arms are coupled to a pair of master handles by a controller. The handles can be moved by the surgeon to produce a corresponding movement of the end effectors. The movement of the handles is scaled so that the end effectors have a corresponding movement that is different, typically smaller, than the movement performed by the hands of the surgeon. The scale factor is adjustable so that the surgeon can control the resolution of the end effector movement. The movement of the end effector can be controlled by an input button, so that the end effector only moves when the button is depressed by the surgeon. The input button allows the surgeon to adjust the position of the handles without moving the end effector, so that the handles can be moved to a more comfortable position. The system may also have a robotically controlled endoscope which allows the surgeon to remotely view the surgical site. A cardiac procedure can be performed by making small incisions in the patient's skin and inserting the instruments and endoscope into the patient. The surgeon manipulates the handles and moves the end effectors to perform a cardiac procedure such as a coronary artery bypass graft.

    Abstract: Non-stressed, high strength, substantially inflexible, rigid, cement-containing pipe, for example, asbestos-cement pipe well adapted as high pressure water pipe, comprising a tubular article body of spirally wound up layers of asbestos-cement, and a plurality of helical windings of a continuous filament of an aromatic polyamide fiber known and obtainable as KEVLAR aramid fiber about one or more of the asbestos-cement layers within the interior of the pipe without being stretched and without being in tension. The aromatic polyamide fiber of the continuous filament is of high tensile strength of about 390,000 psi or higher and a low elongation capability of no more than 7%, and the continuous filament of the belical windings is maintained about the cement-containing composition within the interior of the pipe without being stretched and without being in tension. Non-stressed, high strength concrete pipe is also embodied in the invention. The outer exposed main surface of the pipe is usually free or substantially free of the continuous filament.

    Abstract: A thermic torpedo for preparing and delivering reinstatement materials has an internal chamber defining at least one compartment for containing graded aggregate and a second compartment for containing a stabilising agent, an external skin for insulating the contents of said internal chamber, a cap or lid for securely containing the contents of the torpedo in which is located at least one telescopic probe which can be driven through the compartments to heat and/or mix the contents thereof and at least one aperture through which the reinstatement materials may be expelled for delivery to a work site.
