Abstract: An orthopaedic implant tool interfacing socket for an orthopaedic implant has a stage spaced from an entrance of a threaded blind hole thereunderneath. The stage at least partially defines an impaction face, a keyed entrance therethrough and an extraction tool engagement edge thereunderneath being out of rotational alignment with the keyed entrance.

Abstract: There is disclosed herein radial head elbow prosthesis which is anatomically designed to improve anatomical conformity and function and reduce likelihood of dislocation. Depression centroid eccentricity and orientation and raised lateral bearing surface aspects of the present radial head improve tracking of the radial head prosthesis of the capitellum and reduce likelihood of dislocation thereof.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method of controlling an engine and more particularly for controlling the transition between operating modes of an internal combustion engine such as between an economy mode and a performance mode. The method comprising the steps of determining a current fuel-air ratio at which the engine is operating and comparing it with a predetermined fuel-air ratio limit. The time duration for which the current fuel air-ratio is below the fuel-air ratio limit is determined and compared with a predetermined waiting time threshold value. A count is triggered, which is based on a difference between the current fuel-air ratio and the fuel-air ratio limit when the engine is operating at a current fuel-air ratio which is below the fuel-air ratio limit and this is compared with an intensity threshold value.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for operating an internal combustion engine in a transition operating mode, comprising the steps of determining an initial fuel oxidizer ratio threshold and a demanded fuel oxidizer ratio for a fuel mixture to be supplied to a combustion chamber of the engine. If the demanded fuel oxidizer ratio exceeds the initial fuel oxidizer ratio threshold, the engine is temporally operated in a raised response mode, in which a fuel oxidizer ratio threshold is increased from the initial fuel oxidizer ratio threshold to a raised fuel oxidizer ratio threshold, and a fuel mixture having the demanded fuel oxidizer ratio is supplied into the combustion chamber of the engine.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a smart helmet for use by railyard personnel at a railyard. The smart helmet may utilize many safety features, such as improved visibility, a real-time camera, a Wi-Fi antenna, an environmental monitor, high-accuracy location tracking, tracking the “state” of the railyard crew member, real-time communication, and mobile power. Each of these features may be incorporated with the smart helmet.
