Filed: 2007-01-26
Abstract: Breathable materials comprise a fabric layer and a polymer film layer thereon, the polymer film layer comprising a polymer composition and a filler, wherein the breathable material has undergone a physical manipulation to render the polymer film layer microporous such that the WVTR of the breathable material is greater than about 50 g/m2 24 hr, and wherein the breathable material has a first length dimension and a first width dimension before said physical manipulation and a second length dimension and a second width dimension after said physical manipulation, wherein the second length dimension is no more than about 2% greater than the first length dimension and the second width dimension is no more than about 2% greater than the first width dimension.  Methods of making a breathable material comprise forming a polymer film layer comprising a polymer composition and a filler; bonding the polymer film layer to a fabric layer to form a laminate; and applying a physical manipulation to the laminate to render the polymer film layer microporous such that the WVTR  of the resulting breathable material is greater than about 50 g/m2 24 hr;  wherein the breathable material has a first length dimension and a first width dimension before said physical manipulation and a second length dimension and a second width dimension after said physical manipulation, wherein the second length dimension is no more than about 2% greater than the first length dimension and the second width dimension is no more than about 2% greater than the first width dimension.
Patent CA-2638265-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LI XUEMAN
IPC: G10L21/0208
Filed: 2008-07-23
Abstract: The system provides a technique for suppressing or eliminating tonal noise in an input signal. The system operates on the input signal at a plurality of frequency bins and uses information generated at a prior bin to assist in calculating values at subsequent bins. The system first identifies peaks in a signal and then determines if the peaks are from tonal effects. This can be done by comparing the estimated background noise of a current bin to the smoothed background noise of the same bin. The smoothed background noise can be calculated using an asymmetric IIR filter. When the ratio of the current background noise estimate to the currently calculated smoothed background noise is far greater than 1, tonal noise is assumed. When tonal noise is found, a number of suppression techniques can be applied to reduce the tonal noise, including gain suppression with fixed floor factor, an adaptive floor factor gain suppression technique, and a random phase technique.

Filed: 2007-08-14
Abstract: A method of cutting, polishing and then welding together two metallic components (10, 18), in which the respective components (10, 18) are cut to define respective cut surfaces (14, 16) that are to be polished and fitted together, both to define the relative positions of the two components (10, 18) to be fixed by the welding and to provide facing weld surfaces at which the two components (10, 18) can be welded together. The method is characterized by the steps of i) making at least one extra cut (20), to create at least one zone of elastic deformation that deforms when the cut surfaces (14, 16) are fitted together; ii) polishing the cut surfaces (14, 16) before fitting them together; and iii) designing the dimensions of the cut components (10, 18) so that the zones of elastic deformation compensate for the variations of dimensions caused by the polishing step, thereby retaining the capability of the polished cut surfaces (14, 16, 20) to define said component (10, 18) relative positions during the welding step.

Filed: 2007-08-09
Abstract: The difference between a first position (110) of a first pylon of a tiltrotor aircraft and a second position (120) of a second pylon of the aircraft is prevented from becoming too large. An actuator position error (140) for the first pylon is calculated from a difference between the first position (110) and a commanded first position (150) of the first pylon. An actuator position error (160) for the second pylon is calculated from a difference between the second position (120) and a commanded second position (170) of the second pylon. An absolute value (165) of the actuator position error for the first pylon is compared (135) to the preset limit (130). If the absolute value of the actuator position error for the first pylon is greater than or equal to a preset limit, the actuator position error for the second pylon is calculated from the difference between the first position and the second position.

Filed: 2006-09-03
Abstract: The novel positively charged pro-drugs of acetaminophen, acetaminosalol, and related compounds in the general formula (1) 'Structure 1' were designed and synthesized. The positively charged amino groups of these pro-drugs not only largely increases the solubility of the drugs, but also bonds to the n egative charge on the phosphate head group of membranes and pushes the pro-d rug into the cytosol. The results suggest that the pro-drugs diffuses throug h human skin ~150 times faster than does acetaminophen, acetaminosalol, and related compounds. It takes 1-2 hours for acetaminophen and acetaminosalol, and related compounds to reach the peak plasma level when they are taken ora lly, but these prodrugs only took about ~50 minutes to reach the peak plasma level when they are taken transdermally. In plasma, more than 90% of these pro-drugs can be changed back to the parent drugs in a few minutes. The prod rugs can be used medicinally for treating any NSAIAs-treatable conditions in humans or animals. The prodrugs can be administered not only orally, but al so transdermally for any kind of medical treatments and avoid most of the si de effects of NSAIAs. Controlled transdermal administration systems of the p rodrugs enables acetaminophen, acetaminosalol, and related compounds to reac h constantly optimal therapeutic blood levels to increase effectiveness and reduce the side effects of acetaminophen, acetaminosalol, and related compou nds. Another great benefit of transdermal administration of these pro-drugs is that administering medication, especially to children, will be much easie r.
