Patent number: 12006337Abstract: Compounds that inhibit mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are disclosed. Some inhibitor compounds specifically target a single MAPK such as MAPK13, while others target multiple MAPKs such as MAPK13 and MAPK12. The compounds can be used therapeutically for a variety of diseases, including cancer and respiratory diseases. Methods of synthesis of the compounds are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2022Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: WASHINGTON UNIVERSITYInventors: Michael J. Holtzman, Arthur G.

Patent number: 11986994Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the use of occluding fluids, such as a high-density fluid (a “z-fluid”) or a low-density fluid (an “a-fluid”), to displace resin within a vat during 3D printing. Further, an a-fluid may act as a protective boundary for a 3D printing resin wherein the a-fluid sits on top of the printing resin. Another embodiment of the disclosure provides a process of assessing which regions of a computer-aided design (CAD) model take advantage of a buoying force supplied by the occluding fluid, such that fewer support structures are needed for printing a final CAD model compared to printing the CAD model without the occluding fluid.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2021Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Adaptive 3D Technologies, LLCInventors: Benjamin Robert Lund, Caleb Lund, Xun Han

Patent number: 11948220Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include dynamically selecting transportation options to present to a transportation requestor device based on current transportation network conditions and transportation requestor device history. In some embodiments, transportation network may have many different ways of arranging a transportation requestor's trip, such as private rides, shared rides, immediate rides, and delayed rides. In some examples, the requestor's choice of transportation option may have an impact on the transportation network. In anticipation of or in response to a transportation request, the method may determine which transportation options will better benefit the transportation network and determine which transportation options to display to the requestor and/or the prominence with which the transportation products are displayed. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Lyft, Inc.Inventors: Abhinav Amrut Vora, Hao Yu Liu, Benjamin Han, Julia Yu, Le Guan, Xiaoyuan Xu, Mayank Gulati, Charles Parker Spielman, Chirag Chhagan Chheda, David Chouinard

Patent number: 10094412Abstract: In a method for connecting a press-in bolt with a metal sheet, the metal sheet is positioned upon a cover element of a joining tool. The press-in bolt is forced by the joining tool in a pilot hole of the metal sheet as the metal sheet is supported by the cover element in its capacity as a die, until a head portion of the press-in bolt rests upon one side of the metal sheet and the cover element is pressed upon a shaft portion of the press-in bolt and radially deformed to rest upon another opposite side of the metal sheet.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2017Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: Audi AGInventors: Jochen Rintelmann, Patrick Feldhan, Benjamin Hans, Norbert Hornbostel
