Abstract: A prosthetic aortic valve includes an annular, annulus inflow portion that is designed to reside in or near the patient's native aortic valve annulus, and an annular, aortic outflow portion that is designed to reside in the patient's aorta downstream from at least a portion of the valsalva sinus. The annulus inflow portion and the aortic outflow portion are connected to one another by a plurality of connecting struts that are confined to regions near the commissures of the patient's native aortic valve. The connecting struts are designed to bulge out into the valsalva sinus to help anchor the prosthetic valve in place. The valve is circumferentially collapsible to a relatively small diameter for less-invasive delivery into the patient. The valve circumferentially expands to a larger operational diameter when deployed at the implant site. The annulus inflow portion or the aortic outflow portion has at least one interruption in the annular direction.

Abstract: A variable nozzle for a turbocharger includes a plurality of vanes rotatably mounted on a nozzle ring and disposed in a nozzle flow path defined between the nozzle ring and an opposite nozzle wall. Either or both of the faces of the nozzle ring and nozzle wall include(s) grooves extending substantially transverse to a general flow direction of the flow through the nozzle, and there are clearances between the ends of the vanes and the adjacent faces. Leakage flow through the clearance between the end of each vane and the adjacent face having the grooves must proceed across the grooves, and thus a labyrinthine flow passage is presented to the leakage flow. The labyrinthine passage has a greater resistance to flow than would be the case without the grooves. Accordingly, leakage flow is reduced, which is beneficial to turbine efficiency.

Abstract: A method of reducing power consumption within a portable communication device, uses a number of spatial sensing modules to identify a spatially stationary state or to sense motion of the device, and continuously monitors the device's surroundings. The device includes a control module operatively coupled to the spatial sensing modules. The spatial sensing modules include a global positioning system, and a module configured to identify the location of the device through a cellular wireless communication network through which the device communicates. The method uses the control module to switch on or switch off, in a selective manner, one or more of the spatial sensing modules, in a hierarchical manner, based on identifying that the device has been in a spatially static state for some temporal period, or has been suddenly moved, or if any sudden changes have been detected in the device's surroundings. Furthermore, if the device is identified to be at an indoor location for a specific period of time, the control module switches off the global positioning system of the device, to reduce power consumption, until the time the device is identified to move from the indoor location, to an outdoor location.
