Abstract: A thermo-electro-acoustic refrigerator comprises a sealed body (12) having a regenerator (14), hot and cold heat exchangers (16,18), an acoustic source (20), and an acoustic energy converter (22). A first drive signal drives the acoustic source (20) to produce an acoustic pressure wave in the region of the regenerator (14). The converter (22) converts a portion of the acoustic pressure into a second drive signal which is fed back to and further drives the acoustic source (20). The pressure wave produces a thermal gradient between the cold and hot heat exchangers (16,18), permitting heat extraction (cooling) within at least one of the heat exchangers. The resonant frequency of the refrigerator can be controlled electronically, and is not limited by the physical structure of the refrigerator body and its elements.

Abstract: A surgical suture is made of an elongate, hollow braid of high strength fibers, include ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers. The braid defines an elongate, longitudinally-extending, central chamber that is open and without any core material extending therein so that, when a surgeon's knot is tied with the suture, the cross-sectional shape of the braid collapses upon itself and is reduced in size in response to pressures experienced when the knot is tightened thereby producing a low profile knot that resists slippage. Preferably, the braid is of a size corresponding to a USP size 5-0 to USP size 7 suture and has one or more, preferably a pair, of color contrasting monofilaments woven therein to enhance suture visibility. Methods of making a flattened suture and of utilizing the high strength suture to maintain body tissues in an engaged position to promote healing are also provided.
