Budinger
Bruce O. Budinger, Chagrin Falls, OH US
| Patent application number | Description | Published |
|---|---|---|
| 20090114083 | Encapsulated ceramic composite armor - A composite armor including a disrupting layer and a backing layer provides protection against blast and ballistic threats. The disrupting layer includes ceramic particles or tiles that disrupt the incoming projectile, while the backing layer prevents penetration past the armor by the disrupted projectile. The disrupting layer may include a layer of polygonal ceramic tiles with a deflecting front surface, encased by a retaining polymer, and may also include fire-retarding particles. | 05-07-2009 |

| 20090060724 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR FABRICATING GAS TURBINE ENGINES - Methods and apparatus of fabricating a gas turbine engine component are provided. The method includes selecting a surface of a component to apply a wear-resistant material, applying a formed wear pad fabricated from a wear-resistant alloy and a braze material, and vacuum brazing the component and applied wear pad wherein the wear-resistant alloy is bonded to the component surface using the braze material. | 03-05-2009 |

| 20100198063 | Multi-Modality Phantoms and Methods for Co-registration of Dual PET-Transrectal Ultrasound Prostate Imaging - Herein are described methods and tools for acquiring accurately co-registered PET and TRUS images, as well as the construction and use of PET-TRUS prostate phantoms. Ultrasound imaging with a transrectal probe provides anatomical detail in the prostate region that can be accurately co-registered with the sensitive functional information from the PET imaging. Imaging the prostate with both PET and transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) will help determine the location of any cancer within the prostate region. This dual-modality imaging should help provide better detection and treatment of prostate cancer. Multi-modality phantoms are also described. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20090272095 | ICE SHED REDUCTION FOR LEADING EDGE STRUCTURES - A leading edge structure for use in an aerospace vehicle includes a body having a flowpath surface which defines a leading edge adapted to face an air flow during operation; and a metallic icephobic plating comprising nickel applied to at least a portion of the flowpath surface. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20090272850 | ICE SHED REDUCTION FOR LEADING EDGE STRUCTURES - A leading edge structure for use in an aerospace vehicle includes a body having a flowpath surface which defines a leading edge adapted to face an air flow during operation, and an opposed inner surface. The body is segmented into a plurality of portions having varying thermal properties and/or mechanical discontinuities, so as to promote stress concentrations in ice attached to the flowpath surface. | 11-05-2009 |
