Patent CA-2559737-C (CA)
Inventor: PLANTAN RONALD S
IPC: F16D65/12
Filed: 2005-03-18
Granted: 2013-08-27
Abstract: A disc brake for a vehicle such as a commercial vehicle, wherein the brake rotor (8) extends from a hub (6) end of an axle (2) inboard a sufficient distance to place the friction surface of the rotor and the brake caliper (9) outside the envelope of a wheel (12) mounted at the end of the axle. The placement of the rotor friction surface and the caliper outside the envelope of the wheel enhances brake cooling, makes the brake more readily accessible for inspection and maintenance without significant vehicle disassembly, and permits the rotor outer diameter to be extended beyond the diameter of the wheel rim, thereby lowering brake components stresses and permitting use of lighter, lower cost brake components.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating a programme for presentation as a sequence of programme elements from a set of pre-recorded programme elements which may be transmitted to a receiver. Programme elements each representing for example an event are classified on the basis of programme element content, that is the nature of the event to which the programme element relates. Each programme element is allocated to at least one of a predetermined set of classes and each programme element is stored with at least one associated programme classification code. The classification codes identify the class to which the associated programme element has been allocated. A programme element is generated by selecting at least one programme classification code and presenting programme elements associated with that selected at least one programme classification code. Users are able to generate programmes based on for example the perceived value of individual programme elements.

Title: Distance-dependent spectra with uniform sampling spectrometry
Inventor: GURUPRASAD VENKATA
IPC: G01S11/02
Filed: 2006-02-14
Granted: 2014-06-17
Abstract: In a receiver of electromagnetic or other waves (210-230), scaling of received frequencies in proportion to the respective source distances, so as to reveal the source distances and permit isolation of signals from a particular source by simple spectral filtering. Phas differences between transmitted frequencies due to the common source path lead to chirp eigenfunctions registering in the receiver as scaled frequencies. The chirps are extracted by implementing exponentially varying path delays in autocorrelators and diffractive spectrometers say using a medium (300) with variable refractive index .eta.(t). Analogous exponentially varying phase shifts are applied to successive samples in the kernel of discrete Fourier transform implementations. Advantage lies in enabling distance-dependent frequency scaling in autocorrelation spectroscopy, as well as in conventional diffractive or refractive spectrometers or digital signal processing with uniform sampling.

Abstract: Steering behavior model can include build rate and/or turn rate equations to model bottom-hole assembly behavior. Build and/or turn rate equations can be calibrated by adjusting model parameters thereof to minimize any variance between actual response 118 and estimated response produced for an interval of the well. Estimated position and orientation 104 of a bottom-hole assembly along a subsequent interval can be generated by inputting subsequent tool settings into the calibrated steering behavior model. Estimated position and orientation 104 can be compared to a well plan 106 with a controller 108 which determines a corrective action 110. Corrective action 110 can be converted from a build and/or turn rate to a set of recommended tool settings 114 by using an inverse application 112 of the steering behavior model. As additional data 118 becomes available, steering behavior model can be further calibrated 102 through iteration.

Granted: 2013-04-23
Abstract: Currently, no efficient, non-invasive methods exist for delivering drugs and/or other therapeutic agents to the interior of the eye to treat or prevent disease or injury. The present invention relates to a novel method that is suitable for the delivery of any therapeutic agent (suitably modified) to the interior of the eye without the need for the penetration of a needle into the eyeball. In a preferred embodiment, it involves an injection into a peripheral vein (or oral administration, or administration by some other enteral or parenteral route) of a solution of inert drug which is trapped in the eye by a magnetic field and activated by radiation once it is in position, so that the active agent is released only where it is needed and can have its therapeutic effect without affecting other tissues or organs. The inert drug may be composed of a biologically compatible magnetic nanoparticle chemically bound to a specially inactivated (caged) form of the drug to be delivered and to a luminescent marker.
