Abstract: A computer-based method and computer-readable medium containing computer-executable instructions for assimilating data collected by a time domain reflectometer and displaying more than two waves representing reflections of a pulse on conductors is provided. The method includes a means for wave reversal, wave shifting, multi-wave display, segmented velocity of propagation adjustment, multi-cursor option multi-flagging options and calculating of the total length of wet cable. The combinations of these functions provides a highly accurate means for identifying the location of splices, faults, corrosion, cable damage and other anomalies that are typically found on any length of conductor cable. The ability of this method to display a greater number of waves simultaneously adds additional benefit to a technician attempting to locate particular anomalies with multi-conductor cables.

Abstract: A wheelnut (10) for securing a wheel to a motor vehicle axle. The wheelnut (10) includes a body
having a longitudinal axis (14), the nut body also having an axial threaded aperture and a pair of ends,
one end being in the form of a conical external surface and the other end has wrench flats (24)
facilitating the application of torque forces through the wrench flats to the nut body. The wheel
has a nut seat surface (36) configured to receive the conical external surface (22) in surface-to-surface
engagement, so that a clamping force of increasing magnitude will be applied to said wheel at said
seat in response to the application of torque force on said wheel nut. A flange on said body that
is generally perpendicular to said axis forms a stop surface on said nut body extending radially
outwardly of the conical surface engageable with the wheel in a position of the conical surface
seated on the seat surface with force adequate to clamp the wheel prior to deformation of the
wheelnut seat by the wheelnut in response to advance of the wheelnut against the seat (36).

Abstract: Heart valve leaflet selection methods and apparatuses which subject individual leaflets to loads and measure
the resulting deflection to more reliably group leaflets of similar physical characteristics for later assembly in
prosthetic heart valves. The deflection testing may be accomplished using a variety of test set ups which are designed
to impart a load on the leaflet which simulates the actual loading within a heart valve. The results from a number of
deflection tests are used to categorize individual leaflets, which data can be combined with other data regarding the
characteristics of the leaflet to better select leaflets for assembly into a multi-leaflet heart valve. In one embodiment,
the deflection test is combined with an intrinsic load test, and leaflets having similar deflection and intrinsic load
values used in the same heart valve. One apparatus for testing the leaflets includes a frame for securing the arcuate
cusp of the leaflet while the straight coapting edge remains free, to simulate the actual leaflet mounting configuration
within the heart valve prosthesis. The frame may include a lower portion having a recess for the leaflet and plurality
of receptor holes around the peripheral edge of the recess, and an upper portion having a plurality of needles which
extend downward through the leaflet and into the receptor holes and secure the edges of the leaflet.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for extending a
microprocessor instruction set to allow for extended size
addresses. The apparatus includes translation logic and extended
execution logic. The translation logic translates an extended
instruction into an associated micro instruction sequence for
execution by the microprocessor, where the extended instruction
has an extended prefix and an extended prefix tag. The extended
prefix specifies an extended address mode for an address
calculation corresponding to an operation, where the extended
address mode cannot be specified by an existing instruction set.
The extended prefix tag indicates the extended prefix, where the
extended prefix tag is an otherwise architecturally specified
opcode within the existing instruction set. The extended
execution logic is coupled to the translation logic. The extended
execution logic receives the associated micro instruction
sequence, and performs the address calculation to generate an
extended address according to the extended address mode.

Abstract: A separation process for isolation and purification of useful nutrients from food process streams is described. The process includes the steps of contacting an aqueous solution including a nutrient and divalent ions with an ion exchange resin including monovalent ions. The eluate which is depleted of divalent ions is collected and subjected to a process capable of separating monovalent ions to obtain a permeate fraction including monovalent ions and a retentate fraction including said nutrient. The retentate is separated into fractions, wherein at least one of said fractions includes the major portion of said nutrient, which may then be further purified. The ion-exchange resin can be regenerated by contacting the ion-exchange resin with a solution including the permeate fraction until a major portion of the divalent ions in the ion exchange resin have been replaced by monovalent ions.
