Abstract: The invention provides an impact absorbing member of a motor vehicle which can correspond to an energy caused by a low impact value (5 kN or lower) as well as absorbing an energy caused by a high impact value (20 kN or higher) at a time of being collided with and brought into contact with the other motor vehicle or the other body, can secure a desired impact absorbing performance even in the case that a thickness of an impact absorbing member is limited, is particularly excellent in an impact absorbing performance just after an impact is applied, and is excellent in a functionality and a styling characteristic which can maintain a high impact absorbing performance.  An impact absorbing member (1, 11) of a motor vehicle is interposed between a bumper facia (2, 12) and a vehicle body so as to absorb an impact, and is constituted by a bumper beam (3, 13) arranged in a side of the vehicle body, and a hollow body (4, 14) arranged in a side of the bumper facia (2, 12). The hollow body (4, 14) structuring the impact-absorbing member (1, 11) for the vehicle is formed by blow molding thermoplastic plastics. A plurality of concave ribs constituted by one concave ribs (5, 15) and the other concave ribs (6, 16) having weld surfaces (7, 17) which are depressed to an inner side in an opposing manner and are welded to each other are provided in a first wall (8, 18) in a side of the bumper facia (2, 12) and a second wall (9, 19) in a side of the bumper beam in the hollow body (4, 14). Further, a connection rib (26) rising up in a forward moving direction of the motor vehicle is interposed between the adj acent concave ribs. The concave ribs are arranged on a virtual straight line, and the connection rib (26) is also formed on the virtual straight line. Further, one plate-like rib (22) and the other plate-like rib (23) are formed in the first wall (8, 18) and the second wall (9, 19) so as to connect a plurality of concave ribs (5, 15). The one plate-like rib (22) and the other plate-like rib (23) are integrally formed by welding leading ends thereof to each other by a weld portion (24).

Abstract: The present invention describes methods involving the use of muscle derived cells (MDCs), preferably obtained from skeletal muscle, to support the innervation and repair of damaged tissues and organs, particularly associated with nerve damage or neuropathy. The invention relates to MDCs for use in methods for promoting or enhancing innervation of nerve cells, particularly in the peripheral nervous system, and their ability to contribute to the development of neuronal tissue when MDCs are introduced at or near a tissue or organ site in need of repair due to injury, damage, disease, or dysfunction. Such methods arc useful for the treatment of central and peripheral nervous system disorders and to alleviate, abate, or eliminate the symptoms of neurologic or neurodegenerative diseases in animals, particularly mammals, including humans. The methods are also useful for treating both nerve and muscle tissue following injury, damage, or dysfunction to these tissue types.

Abstract: The invention discussed above provides a reinforcing element for a lower impact region of a front bumper of a motor vehicle for the protection of pedestrians during the impact of a lower leg section against the lower impact region of the front bumper. The reinforcing element is thus connected behind, in direction of travel, the lower front bumper region to the latter. The reinforcing element has a base plate with reinforcing ribs attached thereto. It extends essentially in horizontal direction, approximately over the width of the front bumper. It is thus proposed for the first time that the reinforcing element is designed as a separate plate which can be integrated in the lower bumper region. The above invention also discusses a front bumper equipped therewith for a motor vehicle.

Abstract: A system consisting of a base GPS receiver with a clear view of the sky, one or more remote GPS receivers with restricted views of the sky and a processing center that batch processes range information provided by the GPS receivers determines the positions of the remote GPS receivers to within tight tolerances. The base GPS receiver and the remote GPS receivers produce range information based on the satellite signals that the respective receivers can track at a given time, and provide the range information to the processing center. The range information includes both code and carrier measurements for each of the signals that are being tracked by the respective GPS receivers. The center collects the range information over an extended period of time, for example, hours, days or weeks, and then batch processes the collected information in multiple passes through the data, to calculate the precise latitude, longitude and height of the receiver. The center batch processes the data using a floating ambiguity filter that, after a first pass through the data, is initialized with the position calculated in an earlier pass. The center also calculates the quality of the collected range information by fixing the position and position covariance of the floating ambiguity filter and using double differences with the base GPS receiver measurements, to ensure that the information used in subsequent position calculations is sufficiently reliable.
