Abstract: An implantable prosthetic bearing is constructed of a composite material having a first layer and second layer. The first layer has an articulating surface defined therein, whereas the second layer has a engaging surface defined therein for engaging either another prosthetic component or the bone itself. The first layer of the implantable prosthetic bearing is constructed of crosslinked polymer such as Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene, whereas the second layer of the implantable prosthetic bearing is constructed of polymer such as Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene that is either non-crosslinked or crosslinked to a lesser degree than the first layer. In such a manner, the first layer possesses mechanical properties which are advantageous in regard to the articulating surface (e.g., enhanced wear and oxidation resistance), whereas the second layer possesses mechanical properties which are advantageous in regard to the engaging surface (e.g., high ductility, toughness, and creep resistance). A method of making a prosthetic bearing is also disclosed.

Abstract: Plural levels of detail of a terrain are stored in memory in regular grids. In one such example, a terrain is cached in a set of nested regular grids obtained from the plural levels as a function of distance from a viewpoint. In one such example, the plural levels of detail of terrain comprise terrain elevation and texture irnages. If the viewpoint moves relative to the terrain, the nested regular grids are incrementally refilled relative to the viewpoints movement in the terrain. In one such example, a transition region is introduced to help blend between grid levels. The regular grids are stored as vertex buffers in video memory in one example. In one such example, a vertex data includes an elevation values from another grid level for efficient grid level boundary blending. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a computer tomography method in which a bundle of rays passes through an object that is moving periodically, in particular a heart. During the acquisition of measured values, a movement signal dependent on the movement of the object is sensed. From this movement signal are determined periodically repeated phases of movement, after which a plurality of intermediate images of a region of the object are reconstructed, in particular at a low resolution, using measured values whose times of acquisition were situated in different phases of movement, thus enabling each intermediate image to be assigned to a phase of movement. The phase of movement in which the object moved least in the region is then identified by determining the intermediate image having the fewest motion artifacts. Finally, a computer tomographic image of the region is reconstructed, in particular with a high spatial resolution, from measured values whose times of acquisition were situated in the phase of movement in which there was the least movement by the object in said region.
