| 20120045328 | POWER TRANSMISSION SYSTEM - A wind turbine transmission system includes a rotor, at least one hydraulic pump coupled to the rotor, a branch manifold, a plurality of hydraulic motors, and a plurality of generators each coupled to at least one of the plurality of hydraulic motors. The branch manifold includes a trunk portion defining a main flow path connected to an outlet port of the hydraulic pump and a plurality of branch portions each defining a branch flow path extending from the main flow path and connected to an inlet port of at least one of the hydraulic motors to provide fluid communication between the hydraulic pump and the plurality of hydraulic motors. | 02-23-2012 |
| 20120035747 | SCALING AND PARAMETERIZING A CONTROLLER - Controller scaling and parameterization are described. Techniques that can be improved by employing the scaling and parameterization include, but are not limited to, controller design, tuning and optimization. The scaling and parameterization methods described here apply to transfer function based controllers, including PID controllers. The parameterization methods also applies to state feedback and state observer based controllers, as well as linear active disturbance rejection controllers. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the application. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims. 37 CFR 1.72(b). | 02-09-2012 |
| 20100267638 | EXOSITE-DIRECTED THROMBIN INHIBITORS - Disclosed are an amino acid sequence of the human blood clotting factor Va, peptides containing such sequence, and additional peptides of interest that significantly inhibit thrombin generation. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions containing these peptides and related therapeutic methods for inhibiting thrombin generation and treating blood coagulation disorders. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100048657 | CONTROL OF MALIGNANT CELLS PROLIFERATION THROUGH THE INHIBITION OF CASEIN KINASE 2 - Methods and related compositions are disclosed for treating an array of myeloproliferative disorders and hematological malignancies. In particular, treatment methods and compositions for treating chronic myelogenous leukemia are disclosed. The methods and compositions utilize certain casein kinases, and specifically CK2α agents. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20090191056 | WIND HARNESSING SYSTEM - A wind harnessing system comprises a substantially helical structure including at least a portion of a spiraling groove and at least one energy converter positioned at least partially within the portion of the spiraling groove. In other embodiments, wind grooves formed by adjacent bands which are fixed with respect to one another, carry energy converters which are moveable with respect to these fixed bands. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090143871 | CONTROLLERS, OBSERVERS, AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF - Controller scaling and parameterization are described. Techniques that can be improved by employing the scaling and parameterization include, but are not limited to, controller design, tuning and optimization. The scaling and parameterization methods described here apply to transfer function based controllers, including PID controllers. The parameterization methods also apply to state feedback and state observer based controllers, as well as linear active disturbance rejection (ADRC) controllers. Parameterization simplifies the use of ADRC. A discrete extended state observer (DESO) and a generalized extended state observer (GESO) are described. They improve the performance of the ESO and therefore ADRC. A tracking control algorithm is also described that improves the performance of the ADRC controller. A general algorithm is described for applying ADRC to multi-input multi-output systems. Several specific applications of the control systems and processes are disclosed. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090054507 | CONTROL OF MALIGNANT CELLS BY KINASE INHIBITION - Inhibitors of casein kinase 2 are described that have been found to arrest uncontrolled cell proliferation, thereby suggesting their use in cancer treatment strategies. Specific applications include treating breast cancer, colon cancer, melanoma, chronic myelogenous leukemia, bladder cancer, renal cancer, and brain cancer. Various methods and compositions utilizing the inhibitors are described. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090015017 | WIND POWERED ELECTRICITY GENERATING SYSTEM - An electrical energy generating system converts wind power to electrical power with a wind deflecting structure that divides wind impinging on the structure into two separate accelerated flow paths. One or more turbines are positioned in proximity to the wind deflecting structure such that a portion of the vanes of the turbine is placed within one of the accelerated flow paths. An energy converter is coupled to the turbine that converts rotary motion of the turbine into electricity. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090005886 | Extended Active Disturbance Rejection Controller - Multiple designs, systems, methods and processes for controlling a system or plant using an extended active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) based controller are presented. The extended ADRC controller accepts sensor information from the plant. The sensor information is used in conjunction with an extended state observer in combination with a predictor that estimates and predicts the current state of the plant and a co-joined estimate of the system disturbances and system dynamics. The extended state observer estimates and predictions are used in conjunction with a control law that generates an input to the system based in part on the extended state observer estimates and predictions as well as a desired trajectory for the plant to follow. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20080279690 | WIND HARNESSING SYSTEM - A wind harnessing system comprises a substantially grooved shell disposed about a rigid frame. The grooved shell can be constructed of lightweight shell panels connected to one another and to the frame. Alternatively, the grooved shell can be constructed of inflatable shell sections. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20080223734 | NITRIC OXIDE SENSOR - Electrodes comprising ruthenium oxide nanoparticles are disclosed. The ruthenium oxide nanoparticles are located within the electrode or as a coating thereon. The electrode is especially suited for measuring the presence and/or concentration of nitric oxide in a sample. | 09-18-2008 |
