20110053126 | SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING ROADMAPS FOR BUILDING PROFICIENCIES IN SKILL AREAS - A system is described for providing roadmaps for building proficiencies in skill areas. The system may include a memory, interface, and processor. The memory may store skill area and skill level identifiers, and associated job experience data items describing tasks of a user within the skill area and skill level, formal learning data items describing learning activities of a user within the skill area and skill level, and collaborative data items describing collaborative roles of a user within the skill area and skill level. The processor may receive the skill area and skill level identifiers. The processor may retrieve the job experience, formal learning and collaborative data items associated with the skill area and the skill level identifiers. The processor may transform the data items into a roadmap describing the job experience, formal learning and collaborative data items recommended to reach the skill level, and provide the roadmap to the user. | 03-03-2011 |

20080223632 | Hybrid drivetrain with waste heat energy conversion into electricity - A thermal-to-electrical conversion system converts internal combustion engine exhaust heat into useful electrical energy in a hybrid vehicle system. The converted energy is sent to an energy-storage control system via a DC-DC converter. High power-density storage medium (e.g. ultracapacitors) is used in the designated “short-cycle” hybrid design to maximize transfer efficiency and capacity while minimizing weight. An upconversion circuit within the control system allows high use of the storage capacity. Employed in a lightweight vehicle platform, the system addresses the most significant barriers to achieving high transportation efficiency-mass and combustion energy loss to waste heat. | 09-18-2008 |
20080223637 | Safe, Super-efficient, Four-wheeled Vehicle Employing Large Diameter Wheels with Continuous-Radius Tires, with Leaning Option - A “super fuel efficient”, safe, low-cost and yet high performance 4-wheeled vehicle is configured with motorcycle wheels and tires having continuous radius tires and of outside diameter (20-26 inches). A special configuration of the invention permits a 4-wheeled vehicle to naturally camber while engaging a corner, or while maneuvering on a slope. Integration of a “short-cycling”, low storage mass hybrid drivetrain into the vehicle, and further, an exhaust heat energy recovery system, secures the efficiency opportunity. | 09-18-2008 |

20110281339 | System And Method To Create A Traveling Wave Within A Photobiotic Reactor To Enhance Algae Growth - A photobioreactor with a gas input is disclosed herein. The photobioreactor is tilted about an axis of rotation at various angles to provide for various flow patterns of bubbles created by the gas input. The flow patterns may vary, but include: bubble flow; slug or plug flow; churn; annular flow; or wispy annular flow. In certain configurations, a bubble flowing through the photobioreactor may increase algae growth within the reactor. | 11-17-2011 |
