Title: Monolithic foundation system with homopolymer/resistant aggregate pavement with a semi-continuous configuration
Inventor: LOURENCO SERRO MANUEL FILIPE
IPC: E02D27/01
Filed: 2009-07-03
Abstract: This invention relates to a monolithic foundation (1) system with homopolymer /resist ant aggregate pavement with a semi-continuous configuration, which uses a pavement with load transfer elements (5) for the induction of joints. It is es-sentially characterized in that it comprises a foundation (1) having high-density expanded polystyrene blocks, which supports a semi -continuous cement concrete pavement, the pavement formwork being formed by the polystyrene blocks of the foundation.  Each one of the load transfer plates (5) is comprised of two anchors (6) with two rebars (7) for alignment of a joint inductor (8), and a ball joint (9) which, at the load support moment, rotates anticlockwise and, at the support moment generated by the load transfer plates, performs a clockwise movement. The said ball joint releases the concrete slabs (4) from stress caused by bending/traction at the moment of load transfer, allowing the foundation to be unaffected by bending moments resulting from the load and thus making the slab (4) work essentially with compression stress.  The existence of the said ball joints enables the foundation to be obtained by the said polystyrene blocks.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a multilayer microfluidic probe (MFP) head (100). The head typically comprises a first (110) and second (120) layers facing each others, and at least one tubing port (182), extending from the first layer (110). The first layer comprises one or more via (112), whereby fluid communication is enabled through the first layer towards the second layer. The second layer comprises at least one microchannel (124), relaying fluid communication to an aperture (122). Such a multilayered MFP head is easier to fabricate than heads made with unitary construction. In particular, a microchannel can advantageously be engraved a groove (124) at the level of the interface between the two layers. The MFP head can further be interfaced with tubing using e.g. a standard fitting for tubing port. The invention has substantial potential for e.g. patterning continuous and discontinuous patterns of biomolecules on surfaces as well as for direct processing of resist materials in a non- contact mode.
