Granted: 2013-03-26
Abstract: A fuel cell system and method that enables warm-up power generation corresponding to the residual water volume in the fuel cell stack (2) without using auxiliary devices for measuring the residual water volume in the fuel cell stack. A controller (20) computes total generated electrical energy Q by integrating of the generated current detected by current sensor (16) during the period from start-up to shutting down of the fuel cell system (1), and stores the result in total generated electrical energy storage part (22). Also, controller (20) measures fuel cell temperature Ts at the last shutting down cycle with temperature sensor (18), and stores it in power generation shutting down temperature storage part (23). When the fuel cell system (1) is started, controller (20) estimates residual water volume WR that remains in fuel cell stack 2 on the basis of fuel cell temperature Ts when power generation is shut down, total generated electrical energy Q, and fuel cell start-up temperature Tn, and sets the generated electrical power for warm-up at start-up on the basis of said residual water volume Wr.

Abstract: A system and method for the geomechanical steering of the orientation ofa wellbore is disclosed. In one embodi-ment, any available a priori data regarding the stress characteristics of a region of interest are used to develop a preliminary stress model for the region. A geosteered drilling operation is thereafter commenced, with the trajectory being steered in a direction rela-tive to the stress model of the region. While drilling, real-time data is obtained from conventional down-hole instrumentation. The real-time data is used to refine the stress model for the region, such that the trajectory can be guided on an ongoing basis to achieve an optimal relationship with the measured stress characteristics of the region.

Abstract: Various fluoropolymers have been proposed for imparting oil and water repellency to leather. Commonly, these fluoropolymers are amphiphilic; i.e., they are made from at least one monomer which is hydrophobic and at least one monomer which is hydrophilic. The present invention identifies and remedies disadvantages associated with the ability of amphiphilic fluoropolymers to impart oil and water repellency to leather. Contrary to conventional thinking, it has now been discovered that the incorporation of hydrophilic groups in a fluoropolymer undesirably reduces its ability to impart water resistance to leather. Correspondingly, it has also been discovered that a fluoropolymer incorporating fewer or no hydrophilic groups imparts superior oil and water repellency to leather when compared to fluoropolymers incorporating more hydrophilic groups.  Therefore, this invention provides fluoropolymers which incorporate reduced levels of hydrophilic groups.

Abstract: An apparatus for sealing a passage through tissue includes an elongate shaft and a cylindrical plug disposed on a distal end of the shaft, the plug including a helical thread on its outer surface. Intestinal submucosa may be secured to the plus, e.g., in a cavity in its distal end, that may be delivered into the passage. Alternatively, the plug may be formed from a bioabsorbable material and may be released from the shaft within the passage. The plug is threaded into the passage, thereby engaging the tissue to seal the passage. The shaft is rotated until it engages a blood vessel within the tissue while monitoring blood flow through the vessel. The shaft is rotated to thread the plug into the passage until blood flow ceases through the vessel, whereupon rotation of the shaft is reversed to back the plug until blood flow through the vessel resumes.

Abstract: An adhesive composition for use in devices and methods for measuring a presence or a concentration of a particular component, such as an antigen, in a sample, such as blood, are provided. In one exemplary embodiment of an adhesive composition, the composition includes an adhesive, water a poloxamer, and an anticoagulant. The adhesive can include particular properties, such as being hydrophilic, pressure-sensitive, heat- activated, and/or water soluble. The adhesive is particularly useful because it can help improve the flow of sample a device. For example, when the device is an immunosensor, the adhesive can help prevent the blood from clotting in chambers of the immunosensor. This results in a more efficient and accurate determination of the concentration of the sample. Methods of making the composition and device in which the composition can be used are provided, as are methods of using the same.

Abstract: A device and a method for controlling a clamping press is provided when clamping a tension member as a function of the clamping force of a reference clamping member. The device has a hollow, cylindrical housing, wherein a piston coupled to the reference tension member is supported longitudinally displaceably along an axis. The housing and the piston encompass a pressure chamber that can be acted upon by a pressure medium for performing an axial stroke motion of the piston against the clamping force of the reference tension member by an inlet, and that can be connected by an outlet to the clamping press. The device further comprises a valve unit for controlling the application of the pressure medium to the clamping press, wherein the valve unit can be directly controlled by the stroke motion of the piston. The method according to the invention provides for clamping the tension member as a function of the clamping force of the reference tension member by the cylinder piston unit, the piston thereof holding the reference tension member in a predetermined stress state. When a uniform stress state is achieved in all tension members in the course of clamping the tension member by a clamping press, the inflow of the pressure medium to the clamping press is directly interrupted by the stroke motion of the piston.
