20120285956 | Pressure Discharge Valve For Storage Tanks - A pressure discharge valve for storage tanks on land or trucks including a valve body having a through hole therein adapted to mate and communicate with a through hole in a wall of the storage tank, a first vent means comprised of a eutectic composition which automatically provides a partial release of storage tank liquid at a first predetermined temperature lower than critical combustion and/or explosive temperatures of liquid in the storage tank, to provide a visual signal and warning to firefighters of these hazardous conditions, and a second vent means comprised of a eutectic composition to automatically vent liquid in the storage tank through the hole in the valve body when the liquids therein reach a predetermined critical temperature. In addition, the pressure discharge valve preferably comprises a eutectic solder material disposed between the valve body and the second vent means, which changes phase (i.e., reaches its eutectic point) below the eutectic point of the second vent means, thereby providing a lubricant between the plug and the valve body. | 11-15-2012 |
20130291754 | Pressure Discharge Valve - The present invention relates in general to a pressure discharge mechanism for closed vessels having an internal chamber designed to hold volatile and/or explosive substances in a sealed manner comprised of an at least one eutectic composition and a threaded joint designed to open or vent the closed vessel when the contents of the closed vessel reaches a predetermined temperature while maintaining full structural integrity during normal operation. In one aspect, the closed vessel is a munitions casing which functions as intended under normal operating environments, but then when exposed to extreme temperatures, reduces the munition's high order explosion capability, and is transformed into a safe, low order reaction with significantly less reactive potential. In one aspect, the closed vessel is a transport tanker which should not release substances contained therein. However, if the tanker catches fire, the pressure relief mechanism of the present invention reduces risk of explosion. | 11-07-2013 |
20130320010 | Pressure Discharge Valve for Storage Tanks - A pressure discharge valve for storage tanks on land or trucks including a valve body having a through hole therein adapted to mate and communicate with a through hole in a wall of the storage tank, a first vent means comprised of a eutectic composition which automatically provides a partial release of storage tank liquid at a first predetermined temperature lower than critical combustion and/or explosive temperatures of liquid in the storage tank, to provide a visual signal and warning to firefighters of these hazardous conditions, and a second vent means comprised of a eutectic composition to automatically vent liquid in the storage tank through the hole in the valve body when the liquids therein reach a predetermined critical temperature. In addition, the pressure discharge valve preferably comprises a eutectic solder material disposed between the valve body and the second vent means, which changes phase (i.e., reaches its eutectic point) below the eutectic point of the second vent means, thereby providing a lubricant between the plug and the valve body. | 12-05-2013 |

Intra-cochlear surfaces of at least one first structure of interest (SOI) of the normal contralateral ear in the first image are segmented using at least one active shape model (ASM). Next, the segmented intra-cochlear surfaces in the first image is projected to the second image using a transformation function, thereby obtaining projected segmented intra-cochlear surfaces for the implanted ear in the second image. | 12-31-2015 |

20150043809 | Automatic Segmentation of Articulated Structures - Disclosed herein is a framework for segmenting articulated structures. In accordance with one aspect, the framework receives a target image, a reference image, statistical shape models, local appearance models and a learned landmark detector. The framework may automatically detect first centerline landmarks along centerlines of articulated structures in the target image using the learned landmark detector. The framework may then determine a non-rigid transformation function that registers second centerline landmarks along centerlines of articulated structures in the reference image with the first centerline landmarks. Mean shapes of the statistical shape models may then be deformed to the target image space by applying the non-rigid transformation function on the mean shapes. The framework may further search for candidate points in the mean shapes using the local appearance models. The mean shapes may be fitted to the candidate points to generate a segmentation mask. | 02-12-2015 |

20130331299 | BIOSENSOR ARRAY FORMED BY JUNCTIONS OF FUNCTIONALIZED ELECTRODES - The present invention provides a sensor array device with multiple sensor junctions which have been created through the assembly of two or more differently functionalized surfaces. The functionalizing of the prospective sensor junction areas with sensor compounds occurred when the different surfaces were physically separated from each other before the assembly of the sensor array. By these means, sensor junctions can be built smaller than conventional deposition techniques like printing and photolithography would allow for otherwise. As a consequence, each individual sensor junction contains two potentially different sensor compounds. The sensor array identifies and quantifies different biomolecules. | 12-12-2013 |
20140018262 | BIOSENSOR ARRAY FORMED BY JUNCTIONS OF FUNCTIONALIZED ELECTRODES - We provide a sensor array device for the measurement of mixtures of organic compounds comprising an assembly of sensor half elements which have been functionalized through sensor compounds before the assembly.
