| 20100221070 | TOPSIDES LOAD-OUT TO BARGE CATAMARAN FOR FLOAT-OVER INSTALLATION - The present invention provides an improved method and system for load-out of a topsides onto at least two float-over barges without requiring an intermediate transportation barge. The topsides and float-over barges create a catamaran system that can be used to install the topsides to an offshore structure, such as a Spar hull, using a float-over method. The load-out process offers several advantages and can be less time-consuming and less expensive than a typical procedure using the intermediate transportation barge. | 09-02-2010 |

| 20110284685 | Wheel Structure for Integrating an Electric Drive Motor - A wheel design is provided for an aircraft landing gear wheel that is configured to maximize the space available within a landing gear wheel well to support a motor driver assembly that drives the aircraft wheel when the aircraft is on the ground. The wheel includes inboard and outboard support walls that are spaced apart a selected distance along the wheel axle so that the motor driver assembly components are substantially completely contained within the wheel space defined by the support walls. The preferred motor driver assembly includes an electric motor and a gear and clutch assembly operatively connected to the wheel to drive the wheel and move the aircraft on the ground. The wheel and motor driver assembly described herein may be retrofitted in an existing aircraft wheel without changing existing landing gear components, including tires, piston, and axle. | 11-24-2011 |

| 20090207061 | Sigma-delta conversion circuit suitable for photocurrent measurement applications - A sigma-delta converter suitable for measuring a photocurrent comprises an input node adapted to receive a current to be measured (I | 08-20-2009 |
| 20100097257 | SIGMA-DELTA CONVERSION CIRCUIT SUITABLE FOR PHOTOCURRENT MEASUREMENT APPLICATIONS - A sigma-delta converter suitable for measuring a photocurrent comprises an input node adapted to receive a current to be measured (I | 04-22-2010 |
| 20110049986 | ADAPTIVE PHASE OFFSET CONTROLLER FOR MULTI-CHANNEL SWITCHING POWER CONVERTER - An adaptive phase offset controller for use with a switching power converter having first and second channels. The controller includes a discriminator which detects a ‘critical condition’ in which a switching signal for the first channel transitions during a critical time interval so as to give rise to crosstalk that can corrupt the operation of the second channel's control circuit. When the discriminator detects a critical condition, a phase offset circuit offsets the phase of the first channel's switching signals, such that subsequent transitions occur outside of the critical time interval. A second discriminator and phase offset circuit are preferably employed to detect critical conditions which can give rise to crosstalk that can corrupt the operation of the first channel's control circuit. | 03-03-2011 |

Also, a method of securing a metal ion yielding material, as well as a method of manufacture of an article, by first adhering the metal ion yielding material to a structure and then forming the structure into an article for placement in a body of water to maintain the desired metal ion concentration therein. | 12-18-2008 |

| 20090216113 | Apparatus and Methods for Using an Electromagnetic Transponder in Orthopedic Procedures - Electromagnetic transponders as markers are used to localize and guide orthopedic procedures including: knee replacement, hip replacement, shoulder replacement, damaged bone reconstruction, and spine surgery, and more particularly, to guide orthopedic surgical navigation and alignment techniques and instruments. For example, the marker could further be used in any number of guides or templates that attach to the bony anatomy, such as a surgical guide, cutting guide, cutting jig, resection block and/or resurfacing guide. Further, the marker could be incorporated into an existing intramedullary guide rod for a femur and an extramedullary guide rod for a tibia in a knee replacement surgery; or into an external surgical guide system, or the marker could eliminate the need for an external template altogether. According to yet another anticipated use of the tracking system, the marker could be used in conjunction with or replace an optical alignment system. | 08-27-2009 |

| 20080241815 | Methods for Inducing the Differentiation of Blood Monocytes into Functional Dendritic Cells - Methods are provided for inducing differentiation of blood monocytes into functional antigen presenting dendritic cells. The blood monocytes are treated by exposing the monocytes to proteins adhered to the surface of a treatment device to induce differentiation of the monocytes in to dendritic cells. The treated monocytes may be co-incubated with disease effector agents which have been rendered apoptotic or other source of antigens. The apoptotic disease effector cells are phagocytized by the maturing dendritic cells. In a preferred embodiment, the blood monocytes are treated in the plastic device without use of a photoactivatable agent and light. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20100183735 | METHOD FOR INDUCING SELECTIVELY SUPPRESSED IMMUNE RESPONSE TO TRANSPLANTED TISSUE OR CELLS - Transimmunization methods incorporating skin immunologic challenges are described for either selectively suppressing the immune response of recipients of transplanted tissue or cells or monitoring induced anti-cancer immunity. In one embodiment, skin from the transplant donor is allografted to the transplant recipient to induce an immunological response to the transplanted skin. A quantity of blood is taken from the recipient and treated to render the T cells in the blood apoptotic and to induce differentiation of blood monocytes into dendritic cells. The treated blood is incubated and administered to the recipient to induce formation of suppressor T cell clones which reduce the number of T cells attacking the transplanted tissue or organ. This tolerogenic approach can be complemented by also feeding the immature dendritic cells apoptotic or necrotic cells from the organ donor. In a second embodiment, dendritic cells loaded with tumor antigens are injected intradermally to monitor the anti-cancer immunity induced by Transimmunization. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100209409 | METHOD FOR SUPPRESSING IMMUNE SYSTEM RESPONSE TO TRANSPLANTED TISSUE OR CELLS - Methods are provided for suppressing the immune system response in recipients of transplanted organs, tissues or cells. An extracorporeal quantity of blood from the intended transplant recipient is treated to induce monocytes contained in the blood to differentiate and form dendritic cells. The maturation of the dendritic cells is truncated at a stage where the dendritic cells can inactivate T cell clones which would otherwise generate an undesired immune system response. The immature dendritic cells can be directly administered to the transplant recipient, or the dendritic cells can be co-incubated with the bone marrow or stem cell preparation, prior to transplantation, in order to suppress or eliminate anti-recipient donor T cells contaminating the bone marrow or stem cell preparation. The methods can be used to suppress graft versus host disease in recipients of transplanted bone marrow or stem cells, or to suppress rejection of transplanted organs or tissue. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20100267137 | METHODS FOR INDUCING THE DIFFERENTIATION OF BLOOD MONOCYTES INTO FUNCTIONAL DENDRITIC CELLS - Methods are provided for treating blood monocytes to produce functional antigen presenting dendritic cells. An extracorporeal quantity of a subject's blood is treated to separate the blood into a plasma component containing proteins, a platelet component and a buffy coat component. A plastic treatment device is provided having plastic channels that allow transmittance of light to the interior of the plastic device and a light source that produces light of a wave length selected to activate the photoactivatable agent. The plasma component containing proteins is first pumped through the plastic treatment device, followed by the platelet component and finally the buffy coat component. The resulting treated cells may be incubated or reinfused directly to the subject. | 10-21-2010 |

| 20110187859 | Monitoring and camera system and method - A monitoring system includes an image sensor configured to produce pixel data. An ambient light sensor such as a photocell produces ambient light level data. A processing subsystem is programmed to adjust the pixel data based on the ambient light level data. For example, the gain of an analog to digital converter can be increased or decreased based on the ambient light level data to adjust analog pixel data output by the imager as it is converted to digital data. If the ambient light level is high, for example, the gain can be decreased. | 08-04-2011 |
