Abstract: In order to produce a pulsatile blood flow pattern that includes time periods of relatively high blood flow rates and time periods of relatively low blood flow rates, the operating speed of a blood pump can be selectively controlled to produce an operating speed pattern that includes time periods of relatively high rotation speeds and periods of relatively low rotation speeds. For example, the blood pump is rotated at a first speed for a first period of time. The speed of the blood pump is then decreased from the first speed to a second speed and is operated at the second speed for a second amount of time. The speed of the blood pump is then decreased to a third speed for a third amount of time. If desired, the operating speed pattern can be repeated to continue the pulsatile blood flow pattern.

Abstract: Pipeline wall thickness is measured as a function of position using ultrasound propagation. A series of predictive models is used, which define predictions of the ultrasound response signals as a function of different sets of parameters. The different sets that are determine of position dependent ultrasound speed at different sound frequencies and different spatial resolution. Successive iterative fitting process are executed, each fitting a combination of values of a successive set of parameters to the detected ultrasound response signals according to a respective model, using the values fitted values from the previous fitting process to initialize the next set of parameters for iterative fitting. At least the first model defines predictions of wave vector values as a function of circumferential position in successive rings around the pipe as sums of wave vector value for a plurality of circumferential positions in a preceding one of the rings multiplied by propagation coefficients, using propagation coefficients that depend on a first set of parameters.

Title: Sterically hindered amines and associated methods
Inventor: SU WEI-YANG
IPC: C07C213/02
Filed: 2011-11-21
Abstract: Amine compositions comprising sterically hindered amines and associated methods are provided. Amine compositions of the present disclosure may be useful for selective removal of H2S from an acidic gas stream. Under certain conditions, such as C02 rich conditions and/or high bis-(tertiarybutylaminoethoxy) ethane content, certain amines for selectively removing H2S gas may become phase separated. A higher molecular weight polyethylene glycol may be reacted with a tertiarybutylamine to produce a mixture of sterically hindered amines that provides good performance without the problem of phase separation. The sterically hindered amines may be made without the need for a solvent, thereby simplifying their production. The methods of the present disclosure may be considered more "environmentally friendly" in that they produce higher yields of desirable amine products with minimal to no production of undesirable by-products, which may also reduce the costs associated with making sterically hindered amines.
