Abstract: A device for improving fixation and sealing of a prosthetic component when implanted in a body lumen during laparoscopic, endovascular, or open surgical procedures. In one embodiment, the prosthetic component comprises a graft having a hem defining an interior space. Enclosed within the space is an absorbent cord. The cord expands as it comes in contact with body fluids. The expansion due to the absorbed fluids forms a seal closely following the irregular shape of the lumen and improves fixation at the junction of the body lumen and the prosthetic component. Hem and cord arrangement also used to improve fixation of one prosthetic component to another in a modular graft. In another embodiment, an attachment tab has one part affixed to the outer periphery of the graft and another part attached to an area adjacent to the body lumen upon implantation, to resist forces tending to move the implant.

Abstract: Methods of producing stable disperions of single-walled carbon nanotube structures in solutions are achieved utilizing dispersal agents. The dispersal agents are effective in substantially solubilizing and dispersing single-walled carbon nanotube structures in aqueous solutions by coating the structures and increasing the surface interaction between the structures and water. Exemplary agents suitable for dispersing nanotube structures in aqueous solutions include synthetic and natural detergents having high surfactant properties, deoxycholates, cyclodextrins, chaotropic salts and ion pairing agents. The dispersed nanotube structures may further be deposited on a suitable surface in isolated and individualized form to facilitate easy characterization and further processing of the structures.

Abstract: The device relates to expansion and calibration of profile pipes, such as profile liners, with cylindrical threaded ends in their installation in a well. The device consists of several in-series connected mandrel assemblies, each of them comprises a housing with a central straight-through channel and inclined slots, in which rams are fastened and hinge-connected through pushers, tightened with respect to the housing, with a spring-loaded rod, accommodated in the central straight-through channel of the housing. Rods of the upper mandrel assemblies are spring-loaded for holding the rams in nonoperating position, and of the lower assemblies - in operating position. The lower mandrel assembly is provided with a choke. Maximum diameter of the circle, circumscribed about each mandrel assembly in its working position, decreases from the upper assembly to the lower one to the diameter of a circle, inscribed into the profile liner upon its hydraulic expansion. The invention increases serviceability and reliability of the device in expansion of profile pipes with cylindrical ends and threaded connections under conditions of clay mud presence in a well and sloughing of rocks.

Abstract: Systems and methods for therapeutically treating damaged tissues, bone fractures, osteopenia, or osteoporosis. Systems and methods according to various embodiments of the invention include an oscillating platform for therapeutically treating damaged tissues, bone fractures, osteopenia, osteoporosis, or other tissue conditions in a body. The oscillating platform supports a body. The oscillating platform includes an upper plate; a lower plate; a drive lever supported from the lower plate; a damping member in contact with the drive lever; and a distributing lever arm in contact with the upper plate. The drive lever actuates at a first predetermined frequency.  Next, the damping member damps the actuation of the drive lever, creating an oscillating force at a second predetermined frequency. A portion of the oscillating force transfers from the damping member to the distributing lever arm. Then a portion of the oscillating force transfers from the distributing lever arm to the platform so that the body on the platform receives an oscillation at a frequency effective for treatment of damaged tissues, bone fractures, osteopenia, osteoporosis, or other tissue conditions.
