Patent number: 11891166Abstract: Hybrid multirotor vehicles and related methods are disclosed herein. An example aircraft includes a battery, a rotor coupled to a wing, a motor operatively coupled to the rotor, and a processor operatively coupled to the motor. The processor to is cause the motor to operate in a first motor operational state. The rotor is to operate in a first rotor operational state when the motor is operating in the first motor operational state. The processor is to cause the motor to switch from operating in the first motor operational state to a second motor operational state. The rotor is to operate in a second rotor operational state when the motor is in the second motor operational state. The motor is to provide electrical energy to the battery in the second motor operational state and the rotor is to autorotate in the second rotor operational state.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2019Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: THE BOEING COMPANYInventor: Eric Benjamin Gilbert

Patent number: 9605269Abstract: One aspect of the invention relates to a genetically modified thermophilic or mesophilic microorganism, wherein a first native gene is partially, substantially, or completely deleted, silenced, inactivated, or down-regulated, which first native gene encodes a first native enzyme involved in the metabolic production of an organic acid or a salt thereof, thereby increasing the native ability of said thermophilic or mesophilic microorganism to produce lactate or acetate as a fermentation product. In certain embodiments, the aforementioned microorganism further comprises a first non-native gene, which first non-native gene encodes a first non-native enzyme involved in the metabolic production of lactate or acetate. Another aspect of the invention relates to a process for converting lignocellulosic biomass to lactate or acetate, comprising contacting lignocellulosic biomass with a genetically modified thermophilic or mesophilic microorganism.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2011Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: Lallemand Hungary Liquidity Management LLCInventors: William Ryan Sillers, Hans Van Dijken, Steve Licht, Arthur J. Shaw, IV, Alan Benjamin Gilbert, Aaron Argyros, Allan C. Froehlich, John E. McBride, Haowen Xu, David A. Hogsett, Vineet B. Rajgarhia

Patent number: 6770020Abstract: Described is a method of using gadolinium-containing compounds as agents for neutron capture therapy to treat neoplastic cell growth. The subject is exposed to a gadolinium-containing compound for a time sufficient to allow the compound to accumulate in neoplastic cells. The subject is then exposed to a thermal and/or epithermal neutron flux, thereby initiating a neutron capture reaction in the gadolinium atoms that results in specific death of neoplastic cells.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2002Date of Patent: August 3, 2004Assignee: Wisconsin Alumni Research FoundationInventors: Gelsomina De Stasio, Benjamin Gilbert, Bradley H. Frazer, Roberto Pallini, Luigi Maria Larocca, Delio Mercanti, Patrizia Casalbore
