20120001406NON-ELECTRICAL METHODS FOR ILLUMINATION OF AIRBAG EMBLEMS - Methods for illuminating (backlighting) an emblem on a steering wheel cover or other indicia within a vehicle include the use of a material that is self-illuminated without electricity. This can involve using self-luminous microspheres or phosphorescent additive materials. Such materials will not be illuminated during the daylight, but when night falls (or other periods of relative darkness), they will illuminate the emblem or other indicia. These materials may be added directly to the plastic that is used to make the emblem.01-05-2012

20090088530NOVEL POLYMER COMPOUND AND USES THEREOF - The present invention is related to novel polyolefin polymer compositions and methods of use thereof, in particular use in passenger and driver airbag cover applications for vehicles, wherein airbag covers are required to perform at extreme temperatures with no failures, brittle or ductile fractures. The polyolefin polymer includes: a first component having at least one polypropylene copolymer or homo propylene polymer present in the range of up to about 70% by weight of the polymer composition; a second component having at least one ethylene/octene copolymer present in the range of up to about 85% by weight of the polymer composition; and optionally, a third component having at least one metallocene elastomer comprising ethylene and a co-monomer. A method of forming an airbag cover from the polyolefin polymer is also described.04-02-2009

20090099948Two-Stage Estimation of Real Estate Price Movements for High Frequency Tradable Indexes in a Scarce Data Environment - Indexes of commercial property prices face much scarcer transactions data than housing indexes, yet the advent of tradable derivatives on commercial property places a premium on both high frequency and accuracy of such indexes. The dilemma is that with scarce data a low-frequency return index (such as annual) is necessary to accumulate enough sales data in each period. This invention presents an approach to address this problem using a two-stage procedure with frequency conversion, by first estimating lower-frequency indexes staggered in time, and then applying a generalized inverse estimator to convert from lower to higher frequency return series. The two-stage procedure can improve the accuracy of high-frequency indexes in scarce data environments, and also can mitigate an errors-in-variables problem that arises at very high frequency even with plentiful data (e.g., monthly indexes). In this paper the method is demonstrated and analyzed via simulation analysis and by application to empirical commercial property repeat-sales data.04-16-2009

20100221453BIAS ENHANCED NUCLEATION OF DIAMOND FILMS IN A CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION PROCESS - Diamonds are used to nucleate diamond and diamond-like carbon films in a chemical vapor deposition process using bias enhancement. A negative bias is applied to the substrate, such that a cationic form of the diamond is accelerated toward the substrate during the nucleation phase of the deposition. In this manner, the diamondoid may be embedded or partially embedded in the substrate and/or growing film, increasing the adhesion of the film to the substrate. According to the present embodiments, it is not necessary to mechanically pre-seed the substrate for nucleation purposes.09-02-2010
