20100253950Carrier-Envelope Phase Shift Using Linear Media - The carrier-envelope phase in a train of optical pulses is varied utilizing the dispersive properties of lossless plates while the total dispersion in transmission is maintained practically constant. The plates include sloped surfaces and are mounted for displacement such that the ratio of the thicknesses of the two plates through which the optical pulses will pass can be varied by displacing the plates so as to shift the carrier-envelope phase in the optical pulses. In one embodiment, the plates include a barium fluoride wedge and a fumed silica wedge, wherein the wedges are bond together to form a composite structure with thicker and thinner portions of the wedges inversely matched.10-07-2010

20090283098SPEECH VALVE - A speech valve comprises a generally cylindrical body and a closure member which is slidably movable within the body between a closed position and an open position. The valve body and the closure member are formed of a rigid, smooth material which is resistant to the growth of biofilm such as a ceramic. A particular suitable ceramic is partially stabilised zirconia. The valve body is provided with an outer sleeve which is provided with radially outward extending annular flanges, which are used to retain the speech valve in a fistula between the oesophagus and the trachea.11-19-2009

20090272643Composite Anode Well and Revitilization Method - A composite reconstituted anode well. The composite well has a first while section and a second regenerative section. The first well section has a pre-existing anode well earthen wall, pre-existing sacrificed carbon material, pre-existing sacrificed anode materials, and pre-existing sacrificed well casing. The second regenerative section has a regenerative well casing, regenerative anodes, and regenerative carbon material. The regenerative well casing is driven into the first well section which compacts the pre-existing sacrificed carbon material, pre-existing sacrificed anode materials, and pre-existing sacrificed well casing against the pre-existing anode well earthen wall which forms a first outer section of the composite reconstituted anode well. The regenerative anodes are placed inside the regenerative well casing, and regenerative carbon material is filled inside the regenerative well casing which encases the regenerative anodes and forms the inner well section. The first outer section and the first inner section result in the composite reconstituted anode well.11-05-2009

20100220884MULTIPART COMPARTMENT FOR A HEARING SYSTEM - A hearing system and/or earpiece assembly is comprising an assembly structure with at least three parts. The parts are removably connectable and at least one of the parts can be arranged in relation to another one in a different orientation. Alternatively or in addition, at least one part is made out of a flexible material.09-02-2010

20120095800PREDICTING FINANCIAL STATUS OF A PROJECT - A computer implemented method, system, and/or computer program product predicts the profitability of a current project. Historical data from the current project represents profit data points at predetermined intervals of time during the current project. If a linear regression model of the historical data does not adequately describe the historical data, then a polynomial regression model to describe the historical data is generated. If the polynomial model does not adequately describe the historical data, then another project that is similar to the current project is located. This other project has its own set of historical data. If the historical data from the other project fits the polynomial regression model created from the historical data of the current project, then the polynomial regression model is trusted to accurately predict the profitability of the current project, even though the current project's historical data did not adequately fit the polynomial regression model.04-19-2012

20090282916System and Method for Providing High-Range Capability with Closed-Loop Inertial Sensors - An inertial sensing system including an inertial sensor having a proof mass providing a deflection signal in response to application of an inertial force, wherein the proof mass has a physical deflection limit and a selected saturation limit set below the deflection limit, elements for providing a closed-loop output in response to the deflection signal from the inertial sensor, wherein the closed-loop output is proportional to the inertial force until the saturation limit of the inertial sensor is reached, elements for providing an open-loop output in response to the deflection signal from the inertial sensor once the saturation limit is reached, and elements for summing the closed-loop output with the open-loop output when the saturation limit of the inertial sensor is reached, to provide a high-range output response for the system.11-19-2009
20090288485High bandwidth inertial measurement unit - An inertial measurement unit is disclosed which includes a system of gyros for sensing angular rates, a system of accelerometers for sensing angular accelerations, an integrator for deriving gyro-less angular rates from the sensed angular accelerations, and a complimentary filter for blending the sensed angular rates and the gyro-less angular rates to produce a virtual angular rate output for the inertial measurement unit.11-26-2009
20100058860INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTING THE SAME USING TWO ORTHOGONAL SURFACES - A method of mounting in-plane sensors of an inertial measurement unit. The method includes the steps of: providing a structure having first and second planar surfaces oriented orthogonally to one another, positioning a plurality of sensors on the first planar surface such that each of the sensors has a sense axis extending parallel to the first planar surface, positioning at least one other sensor on the second planar surface such that the at lease one other sensor has a sense axis extending parallel to the second planar surface, and orienting the sensors on the first and second surfaces so that the angles formed between any two sense axes are equal.03-11-2010
