Abstract: The method involves determining a geometry and material properties of a rotor blade (1). Modal coordinates are determined by dividing an oscillation process into a number of low-frequency oscillation modes. Modal stress tensors of the blade for the two modes are determined from the coordinates. The geometry and material properties of the blade are changed such that modal properties of the modes are changed, so that stresses of the stress tensors at a service life-prominent location (15) of the blade are lower than the stresses of the stress sensors before changing the modal properties.

IPC: G02B21/00

Abstract: Accurate localization of isolated particles is important in single particle based super-resolution microscopy. It allows the imaging of biological samples with nanometer-scale resolution using a simple fluorescence microscopy setup. Nevertheless, conventional techniques for localizing single particles can take minutes to hours of computation time because they require up to a million localizations to form an image. In contrast, the present particle localization techniques use wavelet-based image decomposition and image segmentation to achieve nanometer-scale resolution in two dimensions within seconds to minutes. This two-dimensional localization can be augmented with localization in a third dimension based on a fit to the imaging system's point-spread function (PSF), which may be asymmetric along the optical axis. For an astigmatic imaging system, the PSF is an ellipse whose eccentricity and orientation varies along the optical axis. When implemented with a mix of CPU/GPU processing, the present techniques are fast enough to localize single particles while imaging (in real-time).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble de positionnement chirurgical pour une utilisation avec un instrument chirurgical qui a une tige allongée définissant un axe longitudinal, par exemple un instrument chirurgical invasif de façon minimale. L'ensemble de positionnement comprend : un élément de base comprenant une surface de contact avec la peau, l'élément de base définissant une ouverture pour la tige allongée ; un ensemble tournant configuré pour tourner par rapport à l'élément de base autour d'un point de rotation situé au-dessous de la surface de contact avec la peau, l'ensemble tournant définissant une ouverture pour la tige allongée ; et un mécanisme de verrouillage pour verrouiller la position de l'ensemble de positionnement sur la tige allongée et pour verrouiller l'orientation de l'ensemble tournant par rapport à l'élément de base. Lors de l'utilisation, la tige allongée de l'instrument chirurgical exercera un effort sur la paroi abdominale alors que la tige est déplacée par rapport à la paroi abdominale. Il a été découvert que l'effort sur la paroi abdominale est réduit si le point de rotation est au-dessous de la peau du patient. Comme autre avantage, l'effort réduit permet un mouvement plus facile de l'instrument chirurgical.
