| 20100306157 | Method and computer implemented system for social decision making - The method and computer implemented system for social decision making is disclosed. The method commences with a decision maker working interactively with a computer system via the Internet. Decision maker identifies a topic for discussion and the initial pros and cons factors pertinent to a topic; each pro and con factor is attributed by a set of values and criteria. Decision maker then uses a set of social collaboration tools to gather opinions of the others. The others agree or disagree with a set of values and criteria attributed to initial cons and pros. The others can also submit their opinions in a form of the pros and cons pertinent to a topic each attributed by a set of values and criteria. The data is being stored in a machine readable format on a facilitator's server. A computing algorithm then calculates the sets of values, prioritizes criteria, and analyzes the data. Upon completion, a computer system transmits a visualization of data from a facilitator's server to a user computer displaying information in a format that allows a user to use emotional intelligence to make a conclusive decision. | 12-02-2010 |

| 20100255386 | Method and system for anode gas recirculation in fuel cells - One of the main objects in providing optimal mass exchange for fuel cells, especially mobile fuel cells, is anode gas supply to fuel cell stack based on stoichiometric characteristics depending on variable loads and anode gas recirculation. External loads may vary in wide range and arbitrary change, thus complicate the optimal mass exchange in fuel cell stack. A new original technology is disclosed for anode gas supply using a multi-stage ejector. This technology, an ejector design and control system allow increasing fuel cell efficiency with quick loads changing from minimal to maximal as well as at cold start. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20100181231 | Method and apparatus for oil recovery from tar sands - A process for bitumen extraction from hydrocarbonaceous solids, such as tar sand or oil shale, is performed in fluidized bed of a swirl reactor. This provides active interaction of three phases: 1) liquid phase—bituminous oil with solvent; 2) solid phase—sand grains, clay; 3) gaseous phase—steam and gasses. The process also involves the step of pressure decrease inside the reactor to activate a gas desorption dissolved in bituminous sand mixture. The process of separation of the bitumen and sand combines centrifuging and discharging individual products for further processing. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100037586 | Method and system for feeding a gas-turbine engine with liquid fuel - A method is provided for supplying a liquid fuel to a gas-turbine engine, e.g. aviation engine. It includes selective fuel delivery through several fuel delivery lines for different engine operating modes based on a required engine power, providing, e.g. feeding the engine operating at minimal power with base or traditional for this type of engine fuel through a base fuel delivery line; in other operating modes the fuel is fed to the engine either through conditioned fuel delivery line with preliminary conditioning of base fuel or through both said fuel delivery lines simultaneously with mixing both fuel flows directly before entering an engine combustion chamber, e.g., in a line connecting intake manifold for the base fuel and each individual fuel injector. | 02-18-2010 |
| 20090248642 | SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ORGANIZING AND ACCESSING WEBSITES - A system includes server and client computers communicating over a network. The server includes a database of websites. A user logs into one of the client computers and is presented with a stand-alone application for organizing and accessing websites that is separate from a web-browser. The application presents the alphabet to the user and allows the user to select one or more letters of the alphabet. When a letter is selected, the application presents a list of websites to the user and allows the user to select a website. The web address of the selected website is then sent to the web-browser for display of the webpage. The application also presents advertisements to the user that are not blocked by ad blocking programs. | 10-01-2009 |
