| 20080278000 | Methods and Systems for Intentionally Isolating Distributed Power Generation Sources - A method and system for operating a mini-grid including one or more power generation sources and one or more loads independently from a utility grid is provided, where the mini-grid is disconnected from the utility grid in response to a power disruption over the utility grid. A universal interconnect device forms a connection between the mini-grid and the utility grid. In the disconnected state, the mini-grid operates independently from the utility grid, such that the power generation sources of the mini-grid supply the loads. Frequency and voltage regulation are provided by the universal interconnect device through a monitoring function performed by a controller in conjunction with at least an energy storage device, which can absorb or generate power as needed. | 11-13-2008 |

| 20110260076 | Thermal Management technology for polarizing xenon - A polarizing apparatus has a thermally conductive partitioning system in a polarizing cell. In the polarizing region, this thermally conductive partitioning system serves to prevent the elevation of the temperature of the polarizing cell where laser light is maximally absorbed to perform the polarizing process. By employing this partitioning system, increases in laser power of factors of ten or more can be beneficially utilized to polarize xenon. Accordingly, the polarizing apparatus and the method of polarizing | 10-27-2011 |

| 20100138163 | METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR MONITORED APPLICATION OF MECHANICAL FORCE TO SAMPLES USING ACOUSTIC ENERGY AND MECHANICAL PARAMETER VALUE EXTRACTION USING MECHANICAL RESPONSE MODELS - The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for monitored application of mechanical force to samples using acoustic energy and mechanical parameter value extraction using mechanical response models. One aspect of the subject matter described herein includes a method for determining mechanical property parameters of a sample. The method includes applying acoustic energy to a sample to apply a mechanical force to the sample. The method further includes measuring a response by the sample during the application of the acoustic energy to determine a value for a first mechanical property parameter of the sample. The method further includes measuring a recovery response of the sample following cessation of the application of the acoustic energy to determine a value for at least one second mechanical property parameter of the sample. The method further includes determining a value for at least one additional mechanical property parameter of the sample based on a mathematical relationship between the first, at least one second, and at least one additional mechanical property parameter. | 06-03-2010 |

| 20110208060 | Non-contact Biometric Monitor - A non-contact system utilizing an air-propagated ultrasound for monitoring biometric parameters is disclosed. A non-contact sensor transmits an ultrasonic wave toward a subject. The wave is reflected by the subject's skin surface back toward the sensor. Electronics in the sensor measure the small changes in displacement of the skin surface to derive a plurality of biometric parameters, including but not limited to respiration rate, heart rate, eye motion, and limb movement. | 08-25-2011 |
