Patent CA-2811968-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHELTON FREDERICK E IV
IPC: A61B17/072
Filed: 2011-09-27
Abstract: A fastener cartridge can comprise a compressible, collapsible, and/or crushable cartridge body and fasteners embedded within the cartridge body which can be utilized to fasten tissue. In use, the fastener cartridge can be positioned in a first jaw of a surgical fastening device, wherein the first jaw can be positioned opposite a second jaw, or anvil. The anvil can be engaged with the fastener cartridge to compress, collapse, and/or crush the cartridge body and deform, or otherwise deploy, the fasteners contained therein. As the fasteners are deformed or deployed, the fasteners can capture at least a portion of the cartridge body therein along with at least a portion of the tissue being fastened. In various embodiments, the cartridge body can comprise a plurality of layers comprised of different materials which can apply pressure to the tissue. These different materials can have different stiffnesses and/or spring rates.

Abstract: Joined portions (14) of plate materials to be joined (12a, 12b), which are joined with each other, are joined by a plurality of connector bolts (16a-16d). The connector bolts (16a-16d) are arranged in the direction in which a tensile load (F) is applied. The joined portions (14) of the plate materials to be joined (12a, 12b) are respectively configured of four regions (T1-T4) that have different elastic moduluses. The elastic moduluses of the regions (T1-T4) have the following relation: elastic modulus (E1)(region T1) > elastic modulus (E2) (region T2) > elastic modulus (E3) (region T3) > elastic modulus (E4) (region T4). Since end-side bolts (36a, 36d) are disposed in the low elasticity regions (T1, T4), loads shared by the connector bolts can be averaged.

Title: Direction-position sensing fast neutron detector
Inventor: TALEYARKHAN RUSI
IPC: G01T5/06
Filed: 2012-12-13
Abstract: A directional-position sensing fast neutron sensor system is disclosed. The system includes one or more acoustically tensioned metastable fluid detector (ATMFD) for determining the direction of the source of incident neutron radiation. The system has been used to detect the position of a 1 Ci Pu-Be neutron radiation source. The ATMFD detector is comparable in technical performance with directional fast neutron detector-bank technologies but is significantly more economical, smaller, and has little to no interference from nonneutron background radiation. The ATMFD detector can be used to locate hidden neutron sources and has been used in blind tests to do so. Specifically an ATMFD system (with a 6 x 10 cm cross- sectional area) provides directional information for incoming neutron radiation from an 8 kg Pu source from a distance of 25 m with a resolution of 11.2° at a 68% confidence within 60 seconds. Position and neutron source image sensing were also demonstrated using two ATMFDs.

Abstract: This is a Methodology and Computer System to "Optimize Human Mind by Recording a Brief Story of Time from the perspective of Observer Intelligent Agents". As defined in Artificial Intelligence, every Human is an Intelligent Agent.  Intelligent Agents receive percepts from their environment and perform actions in Time. An Observer Intelligent Agent is a Human who is watching Time (as the container of life) and therefore is outside of the Story. This perspective allows Agents to become more aware of the content of their Minds (feelings, thoughts, life situations, knowledge) and detach from it. The Brief Story of Time spans from January 01 0001 to January 01 2500 [25 Volumes (centuries), 250 Chapters (decades), 2,500 Sections (years), 912,500 Moments (days)] and the perspective of a human is 2.5% of the entire story based on age. Using Aggregated Data, Statistical Reports, and Tags, Individual and Collective Intelligence Factories can be created.
