Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080277030Composition and Process for Enhanced Properties of Ferrous Components - Components, such as gears and other power transmission components, are formed by near-net-forging a high strength, high toughness ferrous metal alloy, surface processing metal alloy to form a hardened surface region (11-13-2008
20090162677Metal-Free Diamond-Like-Carbon Coatings - A coating (06-25-2009
20090254286Systems and Methods for Modeling Surface Properties of a Mechanical Component - There is a method for modeling the surface fatigue life of a mechanical component. The method has the following steps: a) modeling the surface fatigue life of the mechanical component on an atomistic scale to form an atomistic model, b) modeling the surface fatigue life of the mechanical component on a mesoscale to form a mesoscale model, c) modeling the surface fatigue life of the mechanical component on a macroscale to form a macroscale model, and d) testing the surface fatigue life of the mechanical component. Feedback from the macroscale model is employed at least once to validate the atomistic model. Feedback from the macroscale model is employed at least once to validate the mesoscale model. Feedback from the testing is employed at least once to validate the macroscale model. There is also an interactive, multiscale model for prediction surface fatigue life or degradation rate for a mechanical component.10-08-2009

20090246551METHOD OF PLASMA NITRIDING OF ALLOYS VIA NITROGEN CHARGING - A method of nitriding a metal includes transforming a surface region of a generally nitrogen-free metal into a nitrogen-containing solid solution surface region. A first heating process heats the surface region at a first temperature in the presence of a nitrogen gas partial pressure to form a nitrogen-charged surface portion on the surface region. A second heating process heats the surface region and nitrogen-charged surface portion at a second temperature for a predetermined time to interstitially diffuse nitrogen from the nitrogen-charged surface portion a depth into the surface region. Coincident with the second heating process, an ionized inert or reducing gas removes the nitrogen-charged surface portion. The resulting nitrogen-containing solid solution surface region has a gradual transition in nitrogen concentration.10-01-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090251466Methods and Apparatus for Displaying Three-Dimensional Images for Analysis - Techniques for presenting at least one 3D image to at least one user through a communications network are provided. A 3D image is obtained. The 3D image is converted into two or more 2D images. The two or more 2D images are stored in a data repository. At least a portion of the two or more stored 2D images is presented to the at least one user. The portion of the two or more stored 2D images is accessible by the at least one user via a browser program.10-08-2009
20100106522SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ORGANIZING AND DISPLAYING OF LONGITUDINAL MULTIMODAL MEDICAL RECORDS - A system and method for processing data includes organizing medical information in a concept frame data structure, which is adapted to include medical measurements and related metadata. The medical information is analyzed to extract further information using information extractors and to store extracted medical information in the concept frame data structure. References are stored to appropriate visualization methods along with an associated concept in the concept frame data structure.04-29-2010

20080288251Tracking Time Using Portable Recorders and Speech Recognition - In general, the present invention converts speech, preferably recorded on a portable recorder, to text, analyzes the text, and determines voice commands and times when the voice commands occurred. Task names are associated with voice commands and time segments. These time segments and tasks may be packaged as time increments and stored (e.g., in a file or database) for further processing. Preferably, phrase grammar rules are used when analyzing the text, as this helps to determine voice commands. Using phrase grammar rules also allows the text to contain a variety of topics, only some of which are pertinent to tracking time.11-20-2008

20100047004Combination writing instrument - A writing instrument, which has an inner and outer writing element with separate writing medium reservoirs. The writing elements are coaxially mounted in an outer barrel and axially moveable with respect to one another. A driving mechanism may be actuated to allow a user to selectively extend one writing element. The inner and outer writing elements may have an inner sleeve therebetween to improve, for instance, rigidity of the outer writing element and to prevent contamination of the writing medium reservoirs. An outer sleeve may also be provided over the outer writing element. The outer sleeve can function to hold various components of the outer writing element together, and to allow for clean and easy refill of the outer writing element, especially when the outer writing element is a nib-type writing element with a filler-type reservoir. The writing instrument is designed so that a user can replace the inner and/or outer writing elements when their respective writing medium have been expended.02-25-2010
