Abstract: The invention provides methods and compositions for differentiating stromal cells from adipose tissue into cells having osteoblastic properties, and methods for improving a subject's bone structure. The methods comprise culturing stromal cells from adipose tissue in β-glycerophosphate and ascorbic acid and/or ascorbate-2-phosphate for a time sufficient to allow differentiation of said cells into osteoblasts. Such methods and compositions are useful in the production of osteoblasts for autologous transplantation into bone at a surgical site or injury. The compositions comprise adipose stromal cells, a medium capable of supporting the growth of fibroblasts and amounts of β-glycerophosphate and ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic-2-phosphate sufficient to induce the differentiation of said stromal cells into osteoblasts. The invention further provides methods of identifying compounds that affect osteoblast differentiation. Such compounds are useful in the study of bone development and in the treatment of bone disorders, including bone fractures and osteoporosis.

Abstract: The method involves measuring and storing oscillation values and operating parameters in a learning phase and forming a model in several stages. Significant alterations in the machine state are set, by evaluating the relative variance between measured oscillation data and data predicted using the model. The method involves measuring and storing oscillation values and operating parameters in a learning phase and forming a model in several stages. A state vector of extracted operating parameters is formed according to a simple, preferably linear, model through a linear combination of the components of the oscillation values and is checked by comparing oscillation values measured and predicted using the model, to determine whether all the relevant data are detected. A ranking of the relevant operating parameters using forwards sampling is evaluated and a complex model is formed using selected relevant operating parameters. Forwards sampling is used to evaluate a new ranking of relevant operating parameters, so that a functional extracting on the basis of a complex model between selected relevant operating parameters and oscillation values can be carried out. In a final operation phase, actual oscillation values and operating parameters are detected and significant alterations in the machine state are set, by evaluating the relative variance between the measured and predicted oscillation data.

Abstract: In an automotive transmission, a method for determining whether an upshift should be enabled or disabled determines the predetermined upshift vehicle speed at which the upshift is scheduled to occur with reference to current throttle position and vehicle speed. The method employs the difference between upshift vehicle speed and current vehicle speed, the current vehicle acceleration, an empirically determined upshift vehicle acceleration referenced to current vehicle speed and the speed difference. If the current vehicle acceleration is equal to or greater than upshift vehicle acceleration, the upshift is enabled; otherwise, the scheduled upshift is disabled. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An active magnetic regenerator refrigeration apparatus includes one or more reciprocating regenerator beds and a heat transfer fluid distribution valve that is activated as the bed is moved between a position in which it is in the magnetic field of a magnet to a position in which it is outside the magnetic field of the magnet. The distribution valve has a first valve member and a moving second valve member slidingly engaged to each other, each of which has ports by which heat transfer fluid may be provided to and received from the valve member. The bed is mounted to the moving second valve member so that heat transfer fluid is conveyed to and through the valve in a single direction into the regenerator bed. The material of the bed exhibits the magnetocaloric effect and the temperature of the bed rises when it enters the magnetic field of the magnet and decreases when it exits the magnetic field, providing a refrigeration cycle. The direction of fluid flow to, from and through the distribution valve remains the same in both positions of the bed or beds, with the distribution valve serving to switch the direction of the fluid flow through the bed in the unmagnetized and magnetized positions of the bed, so that there is essentially no dead volume of heat transfer fluid.

Abstract: A ring network for transporting data packets between network devices is provided. The ring network includes a number of ring switches. Each ring switch has at least one ring port, at least one local port and at least one table that self learns which network devices are associated with each port of the ring switch based on a selected source identifier from the packets processed by the ring switch. The source and destination identifiers may, for example, be a media access control (MAC) address from an Ethernet packet, an Internet Protocol (IP) address, at least a portion of a hierarchical address, a combination of two or more identifiers at different protocol levels for the data packet, a port number of a universal datagram protocol, or other appropriate identifier. The at least one ring port of each ring switch is coupled to a ring port of another ring switch in the ring network. The ring switch switches data packets between its ring and local ports to direct the data packets to specified network devices associated with the at least one local port of the ring switches in the ring network. The ports of the ring switches are configured such that data packets received at the at least one ring port and the at least one local port that are not destined for a network device associated with the at least one local port of the ring switch are switched to another ring switch on the ring network based on the at least one table without the use of a token or encapsulating the packet.
