Abstract: A method and system (11) for boosting a torque output of a drive train comprises an engine speed detector (12) for detecting an engine speed of an engine (10) having a baseline torque versus engine speed curve. A data processor (14) determines if the detected engine speed is within a first range of engine speeds. If the detected engine speed is within the first range, the electric motor (24) is activated to rotate substantially synchronously with the engine speed within the first range in an electric propulsion mode in accordance with a supplemental torque versus engine speed curve. The supplemental torque versus engine speed curve intercepts the baseline torque versus engine speed curve at a lower engine speed point and a higher engine speed point.

Abstract: A power conversion system having a DC power distribution bus includes multiple power converters connected to the DC power distribution bus with modulation frequencies synchronized so that providing phase shifts between the different modulations has the effect of compensating voltage and current ripples, e.g., reducing voltage fluctuations, across the DC bus. Power conversion may be controlled using space vector modulation implemented, for example, by any of a variety of pulse width modulation schemes. Phase shifts in which nulls of the modulation cycles of different converters do not overlap (in the time domain) may be particularly effective for DC bus voltage ripple compensation. The novel method for DC bus voltage ripple compensation may be implemented by programming a digital signal processor to control the power converters.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing synthetic genes and combinatorial DNA and protein libraries, termed here Divide and Conquer-DNA synthesis (D&C-DNA synthesis) method. The method can be used in a systematic and automated way to synthesize any long DNA molecule and, more generally, any combinatorial molecular library having the mathematical property of being a regular set of strings. The D&C-DNA synthesis method is an algorithm design paradigm that works by recursively breaking down a problem into two or more sub-problems of the same type. The division of long DNA sequences is done in silico. The assembly of the sequence is done in vitro. The D&C-DNA synthesis method protocol consists of a tree, in which each node represents an intermediate sequence. The internal nodes are created in elongation reactions from their daughter nodes, and the leaves are synthesized directly. After each elongation only one DNA strand passes to the next level in the tree until receiving the final product. Optionally and preferably, error correction is performed to correct any errors which may have occurred during the synthetic process.

Filed: 2007-02-01
Abstract: Procédé de réalisation d'un raccordement au corps qui consiste à réaliser un tel raccordement pendant la réalisation d'une tranchée peu profonde (STI) dans un substrat de silicium sur isolant (SOI).Pendant la réalisation de la tranchée peu profonde, on forme une première tranchée, laquelle s'arrête avant une couche d'oxyde noyée du substrat SOI. Cette première tranchée peut déterminer la hauteur du raccordement au corps partagé par deux transistors à effet de champ. La seconde tranchée s'arrête dans le substrat SOI. Cette seconde tranchée définit l'emplacement et la forme du raccordement au corps. Une fois définis l'emplacement et la forme du raccordement au corps, un oxyde est déposé au-dessus dudit raccordement. Ce dépôt d'oxyde empêche certains implants de pénétrer dans le raccordement au corps. Par voie de conséquence, il est possible d'auto-aligner un implant de source et de drain sur les régions de source et de drain sans recours à un masque de photorésist destiné à protéger les régions de raccordement de corps contre l'implant de source et de drain.

Abstract: Medical devices for in vivo medical applications are disclosed. The medical devices are constructed of shape memory polymer (SMP) materials capable of assuming a memory shape at physiological temperatures. These medical devices may be used in surgical procedures and in both vascular and non-vascular applications. These SMP medical devices have a post-implantation memory shape that is substantially identical to or slightly larger than the insertion site to adapt to vessel growth or size changes. SMP medical devices may be formed as stents or occlusion devices (i.e., plugs) having a number of different structural features. The SMP medical devices may be formed from a first monomer and a second cross-linking monomer, wherein the weight percentages of the first and second monomers are selected by performing an iterative function to reach a predetermined glass transition temperature (Tg) and a predetermined rubbery modulus to optimize post-implantation memory shape properties of the devices.
