Translation of "Was gleichbedeutend ist mit" in English

Which, for you, is like the equivalent of getting totally blotto.

Which is tantamount to creating lives.

On 1 January 2012, the terms of Council Directive 1999/74/EC will enter into force, laying down minimum standards for the protection of hens, tantamount to the abolition of conventional battery cages as a system of rearing for the production of eggs.

The three-pillar approach involves a solution for the financial sector and fiscal stimulus packages, regulating and - I would say - correcting the defects within the system and regenerating global trade, which means pressing for renewed discussions with Doha within a WTO framework.

As regards the objectives of improving European policy by making it more transparent, the Commission has stated that its objective is to reduce the volume of legislation and to get rid of ineffective legislative acts, which is not the same thing as deregulation.

The international frenzy about this fundamental idea - sustainability, which is the same as saying solidarity with the generations to come and solidarity between peoples - is more the result of complying with a timetable established several years ago than of having fulfilled a strategy.

The 75-year-old conceived his "language" with bright colours and imaginative forms - which are however by no means synonymous with "funny" pictures.

It erodes by 10 metres a year, which means a million square metres lost every year.

Having in mind the limitations of the prior art, it is the object of the present invention to lower the high specific weight of the plastisols used for purposes of automobile undercoat protection while avoiding the known drawbacks, which is tantamount to a reduction in the total weight of the motor vehicle.

Figure 2 shews the steep rise in refrigerating capacity with increasing air humid­ity, equivalent to increased water vapour condensation inside.

In other words, too much attention is paid to assessment and evaluation, in comparison with improvements.

With increasing moisture content, the thermal conductivity also increased in this case, which is equivalent to a control of the heat transport depending on the exposure.

With increasing moisture content, the thermal conductivity also increased in this case, which is equivalent to a control of the heat transport depending on the exposure.

Each pair of separation transistors TT serves to couple or decouple the pair of internal bit lines BL, BL assigned to it, to or from the pair of external bit lines XB, XB, as a function of the applicable outlet of the bit line decoder DEC. This is equivalent to "select a pair of internal bit lines BL, BL".

Since in optical displays the aperture x, the picture size and the object size, respectively, are all constant, a larger aperture angle of the optical system before the light source that is, a more efficient light collection) can be realized only with point light sources.

This exposed gap area fills with gas which is equivalent to an increase in the radial force acting on the base body.

These known devices are no longer regarded fully appropriate in view of today's requirements with respect to processing throughput rate and yield, while, on the other hand, the precision which is possible is unsatisfactory. This means a loss in yield which today is no longer tolerable, which loss is also added to by the shape of the decapitation cut.

At the phase boundary between the microporous solid particles and the non-porous polymer matrix the further penetration of the printing ink is stopped so that lateral flowing apart, synonymous with a reduction in outline sharpness, is prevented.

This can lead, after only a short time, to an overload and can cause the portion carrying the sealing lip proper to be torn from the holding section, and this is tantamount to a complete failure of the sealing device.

In comparison with the actual conveying process, higher conveying speeds are needed to whirl up the deposited material again, and this is synonymous with greater energy requirements and consequently once again greater wear on the pipes.

So the mere generation of the inverted or complementary, and of the non-inverted or true output signal (which corresponds to the generation of an in-phase and of an out-of-phase signal) out of a given input signal is frequently not sufficient for ensuring the desired qualitative characteristics of the phase splitter.

At a control voltage of -70 V, the output current is approximately zero, and would correspond to no charge being deposited on a receptor surface.

This is so much the more surprising, since the OECD-Screening-Test and the OECD-Confirmatory-Test are based upon an assessment of biological degradability when surfactants are degraded to 80% within 19 or, as the case may be, 21 days, which for waste water treatment purposes is a slow reduction in surfactants.

In the event of an interruption of the capacitor C 2 the voltage at the capacitor C 7 assumes the value of the reference potential m, which is equivalent to “flame not present”.

If both that limiting value and the dimensions of the configuration are fixed, it is possible to achieve an increase in the roadability by avoiding so-called "hot spots", that is to say spots where the temperature is substantially higher by comparison with their surroundings, something which is equivalent to uniformly generating and dissipating heat over the configuration.

The invention is also based on the recognition of the fact that instead of being dependent on the mean image value (being the same as the density of the image) in a window around the relevant pixel, the modification may also be dependent on the variation of the image values in such a window; this is notably so when the aim is to avoid enhancement of the noise upon enhancement of the contrast.
