Abstract: An architectural instruction instructs a microprocessor to perform an operation on first and second source operands to generate a result and to write the result to a destination register only if architectural condition flags satisfy a condition specified in the architectural instruction. A hardware instruction translator translates the architectural instruction into first and second microinstructions. To execute the first microinstruction, an execution pipeline performs the operation on the source operands to generate the result, determines whether the architectural condition flags satisfy the condition, and updates a non-architectural indicator to indicate whether the architectural condition flags satisfy the condition. To execute the first microinstruction, if the non-architectural indicator updated by the first microinstruction indicates the architectural condition flags satisfy the condition, it updates the destination register with the result; otherwise, it updates the destination register with the current value of the destination register.

Abstract: A bone plate for tissue fixation which is configured to accommodate fixation devices (such as screws, for example) inserted at various angles. The bone plate is formed of a material softer than the material of the fixation devices, and is provided with fixation holes with rounded, curved interior walls (i.e., non-threaded holes) that allow the fixation devices to be inserted at various angles. The fixation holes have a diameter smaller than that of the fixation devices. As a result of the difference between the materials of the plate and of fixation devices, and of the difference between the diameters of the fixation holes and of the fixation devices, the fixation devices deform the interior walls of the fixation holes, therefore self-threading the holes at an advantageous angle.

Abstract: A method for fractionating a fuel includes heating the fuel and flowing it through hollow superhydrophobic membranes (62) in a membrane module (12). Vapor from the fuel permeates the hydrophobic membranes (62) and enters a distillate collection chamber (70), producing distilled fuel and residual fuel. The residual fuel is removed from the module (12) and cooled. The cooled residual fuel is flowed through hollow tubes (64) in the module (12) and the distilled fuel is removed from the distillate collection chamber (70). Burning the distilled fuel reduces engine emissions. A fuel fractionation system (10) includes a distillate collection chamber (70), hollow superhydrophobic membranes (62), hollow tubes (64) and a distillate outlet (78). The hollow superhydrophobic membranes (62) receive heated fuel and allow vapor from the heated fuel to permeate the membranes (62) and enter the distillate collection chamber (70). The hollow tubes (64) receive cooled residual fuel and are positioned to allow vapor in the distillate collection chamber (70) to condense on outer surfaces (65) of the hollow tubes (64).

Abstract: Method for dynamically limiting the inclinations of monoblock flight control surfaces (FCS) in an aircraft. Dynamic limitation of the FCS is activated if a stall susceptibility condition is detected in the current aircraft environment. The real-time calibrated airspeed of the aircraft, real-time angle of attack (AOA) of the aircraft, and real-time sideslip angle (AOS) of the aircraft are obtained. The aircraft parameters may be obtained via estimation if the measured values are deemed unsuitable. The real-time local AOA and AOS of the FCS are calculated based on the obtained aircraft parameters. The inclination of each of the FCS relative to the critical values is dynamically limited according to the calculated real-time local AOA and AOS of the FCS. The aircraft may be an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and/or a V-tail aircraft. The stall susceptibility condition may include icy conditions.
