Patent EP-1993475-A2 (EP)
Inventor: RICHTER JACOB
IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 2007-02-28
Abstract: An intravascular stent especially suited for implanting in lumens having variable characteristics such as curvatures, changing diameters as found in ostial regions or variable wall compliance during systolic cycles. The stent can include an end region which is fabricated to have a greater radial strength than the remaining axial length of the stent. Such a stent is particularly suited for use in ostial regions, which require greater support near the end of the stent. The stent alternatively can include sections adjacent the end of the stent with greater bending flexibility than the remaining axial length of the stent. Such a stent is particularly suited for use in curved arteries. The stent can be constructed with an end that has greater radial strength and sections adjacent the end with greater bending flexibility. Such a stent prevents flaring of the stent end during insertion. The stent can also be constructed to have increased longitudinal flexibility when expanded such that it flexes with the vessel wall during systolic cycles.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de robotique permettant de guider une aiguille flexible pendant son insertion dans un tissu mou utilisant l'imagerie pour déterminer la position de l'aiguille. Le système de commande calcule une trajectoire de pointe d'aiguille qui atteint la cible désirée tout en évitant les obstacles potentiellement dangereux en route. A l'aide d'un algorithme de cinématique inverse, les manœuvres requises de la base de l'aiguille pour que la pointe suive cette trajectoire sont calculées, de telle sorte que le robot puisse réaliser une insertion de l'aiguille contrôlée. L'insertion d'une aiguille flexible dans un tissu déformable est modélisée comme un faisceau linéaire supporté par des ressorts virtuels, les coefficients de rigidité des ressorts variant le long de l'aiguille. Les cinématiques directes et inverses de l'aiguille sont résolues de façon analytique, permettant à la fois une planification du trajet et une correction en temps réel. La forme de l'aiguille est détectée par un traitement d'image réalisé sur des images fluoroscopiques. Les propriétés de rigidité du tissu sont calculées à partir de la forme mesurée de l'aiguille.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vehicle driving system capable of engaging a clutch smoothly and early when clutch engaging is requested. 
     A 4WD CU (100) controls a motor (5) and engagement/disengagement of a clutch (4). After the clutch (4) is disengaged, the 4WD CU (100) matches a rotating speed of a section which drives the clutch, and a rotating speed of a section which is driven by the clutch. A speed-synchronizing request detector (140) discriminates whether the driving side requires synchronization in speed. If the speed-synchronizing request detector (140) discriminates that the driving side requires the synchronization in speed, the 4WD CU (100) matches the speed of the driving side with that of the driven side.

Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer program products for biopolymer engineering. A variant set for a biopolymer of interest is constructed by identifying, using a plurality of rules, a plurality of positions in the biopolymer of interest and, for each respective position in the plurality of positions, substitutions for the respective position. The plurality of positions and the substitutions for each respective position in the plurality of positions collectively define a biopolymer sequence space. A variant set comprising a plurality of variants of the biopolymer of interest is selected. A property of all or a portion of the variants in the variant set is measured. A sequence-activity relationship is modeled between (i) one or more substitutions at one or more positions of the biopolymer of interest represented by the variant set and (ii) the property measured for all or the portion of the variants in the variant set. The variant set is redefined to comprise variants that include substitutions in the plurality of positions that are selected based on a function of the sequence-activity relationship.
