20140356575 | Structural Micro to Nano Layered Composite - A composite made of alternating layers of elastic and plastic material provides desirable mechanical properties including high toughness. Each layer has a thickness of between 10 nanometers and 500 microns. Plastic materials that may be used include thermoplastic/thermoset elastomers, aluminum, alloys of aluminum, titanium, and alloys of titanium. Elastic materials include various thermoplastic or thermoset polymers, Al | 12-04-2014 |
20120165505 | Beta Helical Peptide Structures Stable in Aqueous and Non-Aqueous Media - Disclosed are peptide structures that are stable in aqueous and non-aqueous media where a first linear peptide chain comprising alternating D,L- or L,D-amino acids having an N and C termini is joined by at least one turn region to a second linear peptide chain comprising alternating D,L- or L,D-amino acids having an N and C termini. The peptide chains can be joined at the C terminus of one of the linear peptide chains with an N terminus of the other linear peptide chain, a C terminus of one of the linear peptide chains with a C terminus of the other linear peptide chain, or an N terminus of one of the linear peptide chains with an N terminus of the other linear peptide chain. | 06-28-2012 |
20110055210 | Robust Adaptive Data Clustering in Evolving Environments - A computer-implemented method for automated data clustering and analysis. A computer takes a database having multiple entries and transforms the entries in the database into a set of intrinsic attributes for each entry. The computer then receives data defining one or more clustering trials to be run on the attributes from the entries in the database, each clustering trial being defined by a set of relevant intrinsic and extrinsic attributes. The computer automatically identifies the most significant intrinsic and/or extrinsic attributes of the entries being clustered for each clustering trial, and runs a clustering script to cluster the attributes in accordance with the significant attributes. The computer forms hierarchical linkages of the profiles and automatically calculates the cophenetic correlation coefficient for the linkages in each clustering trial. The invention then automatically calculates linkage threshold values for the linkages in each trial, creates cluster groups based on the threshold values, and outputs dendrograms and maps showing the results. | 03-03-2011 |
20100173155 | SYNTHESIS OF ELASTOMERIC POLY(CARBORANE-SILOXANE-ACETELYENE)S - A linear polymer comprising carborane, siloxane, and acetylene units, which may be cross-linked to a cured polymer and/or pyrolyzed to a ceramic. | 07-08-2010 |
20100126219 | Process of Making Low Loss Visible - IR Transmitting Glass - Ceramic Spinel Composites - This invention pertains to a process of bonding a magnesium aluminate spinel article or articles and a germanate glass article or articles including the step of heating them together above the softening temperature of the glass. | 05-27-2010 |
