20100191517 | METHOD FOR DETERMINING THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURES OF DYNAMIC MOLECULES - The present invention relates to a method for determining three-dimensional structures of molecules, particularly, but not exclusively, dynamic organic molecules of biological interest such as peptides, carbohydrates, proteins and drug molecules. A first aspect of the present invention provides a method for generating data representing an ensemble of three-dimensional structures of a molecule, the molecule comprising first and second atoms linked by at least one bond, said bond having an associated angle, and the angle varying to generate a plurality of three-dimensional structures of said molecule, the method comprising: receiving data representing said molecule, said data comprising data indicating variability of said angle; and generating an ensemble of structures such that the angle has an associated value selected based upon said variability. A second aspect of the present invention provides a computer implemented method for simulating the variability of the three-dimensional structure of a molecule. | 07-29-2010 |

20080318816 | Method of Increasing Hydrolytic Stability of Magnesium Overbased Products - The hydrolytic stability of magnesium overbased products is significantly improved by the addition or inclusion of a mixture or reaction product of an alkylphenol resin with a mixture of an alkenyl succinic anhydride and the acid thereof, and an alkyl amine. These magnesium overbased products are useful additives to fuel oils to improve their corrosion-causing tendencies. In one non-limiting embodiment, the alkylphenol resin is nonylphenol resin and the succinic anhydride is a partially hydrolyzed succinic anhydride having from 14 to 26 carbon atoms, along with the acid thereof. The mixtures and reaction products also serve as asphaltene inhibitors in the fuel oils. | 12-25-2008 |

20100089696 | Barrier Assembly - A barrier assembly includes an upright frame that supports a barrier including a pair of slidably coupled barrier members that are adjustable in length and are supported by a stirrup as well as the frame. The frame attached to the barrier members to support the barrier members is able to attach to a supporting surface. The frame extends upwardly from the supporting surface to support the barrier members at a position spaced from the supporting surface. The frame has a clamp device that engages the members to prevent sliding movement between the barrier members and thereby removably fixes the barrier members at a desired length and fixes the barrier members to the frame. | 04-15-2010 |
