Publication number: 20240123123Abstract: A tubing component, and methods of forming, for a particulate material delivery assembly including a particulate delivery device to deliver a mixed particulate solution to a patient. The tubing component includes a material including a material density, and a determined thickness sufficient to shield a delivery line connector of a particulate delivery device from at least 90% of a radiation dose. The delivery line connector is configured to receive the mixed particulate solution from the particulate delivery device of the particulate material delivery assembly, and the determined thickness of the tubing component is calculated based on the material density to achieve shielding of the delivery line connector by the material of at least 90% of the radiation dose. The tubing component includes an integral wall of the delivery line connector, an outer sleeve configured to be removably disposed about the delivery line connector, or combinations thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2021Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: BARD PERIPHERAL VASCULAR, INC.Inventors: Brandon David Simmons, Christopher Dean Drobik, Amanda Kingman, Casey Tyler Hebert, Mark Nicholas Wright

Publication number: 20230096728Abstract: The invention concerns a method implemented by a device for displaying strokes of digital ink in a display area and for performing text line extraction to extract text lines from the strokes. In particular, the text line extraction may involve slicing the display area into strips, ordering for each strip the strokes into ordered lists which form collectively a first set of ordered lists, forming for each strip a second set of ordered lists by filtering out from the ordered lists of the first set strokes which are below a given size threshold, and performing a neural net analysis based on said first and second sets to determine for each stroke a respective text line to which it belongs.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2022Publication date: March 30, 2023Inventor: David Hébert

Publication number: 20170298464Abstract: Systems for cooling a heat-treated metallic part include a plurality of atomization nozzles disposed on a stage and radially disposed about the part to be cooled; and a fluid in fluid communication with the atomization nozzles. The fluid may gas, liquid, or a combination thereof, e.g., water and gas. During use, the atomization nozzles are generally configured to rapidly cool the thicker sections of the part relative to the thinner section since the thicker sections are generally slower to cool. In some embodiments, the stage can be configured to rotate about the part during cooling.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2016Publication date: October 19, 2017Inventors: David Hebert, Renee Sullivan, Michael Friedman, Richard Clay

Patent number: 9460241Abstract: System and method for adjusting the values of the prognostic variables near the interface between a nonhydrostatic, high resolution model embedded in a hydrostatic, coarser resolution model. The system and method condition the outer domain lateral boundary values to enforce conservation of volume when the variables are interpolated onto the inner domain grid. The conditioning adjusts the baroclinic normal velocities at the open boundaries before interpolation. The system and method also include a relaxation scheme which matches the values of the prognostic variables across a zone near the open boundaries of the submesoscale inner domain to prevent the development of discontinuities, reflections and perimeter currents at the periphery of the inner domain.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2013Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: The United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: Patrick C. Gallacher, Michael R. Schaferkotter, David A. Hebert
