Abstract: The systems and methods, in one embodiment, include a convolutional neural network (CNN) model trained by a modified version of the CycleGAN process. The CNN filters ultrasound images generated by a handheld ultrasound device to generate images that are perceptually similar to images generated by a cart-based ultrasound device in terms of quality. The resulting images look sharper and less noisy compared to the original inputs. The invention is a tool within the actions menu of a mobile app. When the tool is open, users can turn filtering on and off. The users will turn filtering on to reduce noise so they can reach the right scanning spot faster. After which because of body habitus, still there might be some noise that this tool can clean up. The user can then decide to have the filtering on or off during the diagnostic process.

Abstract: A care system includes a mobile communication device, a remote server, and a patient support system that is in communication with either or both of the mobile communication device and the remote server. The mobile communication device may operate as a user interface for the patient support system. The remote server may provide computing power for the patient support system for resource intensive computing tasks.

Abstract: A digital story includes textual, visual, and/or audio aspects. Generation of a new digital story and/or editing of an existing digital story can include, for instance, coordinating presentation of textual, visual, and/or audio aspects of the digital story. A digital story can be viewed and/or accessed by a user remote from one or more authors of the digital story.

Abstract: There is provided a translational inerter assembly for damping movement of a flight control surface of an aircraft with a support structure. The translational inerter assembly includes a press fit element rotatably disposed within the flight control surface. The translational inerter assembly further includes an inertia element disposed in the press fit element. The translational inerter assembly further includes a torsion bar coupled to the inertia element and to the support structure of the aircraft, such that when the flight control surface rotates, the inertia element translates, and movement of the flight control surface is dampened.

Abstract: A power extraction system and method for a gas turbine engine of a vehicle are provided. The system has an HP spool tower shaft coupled between an HP spool of the gas turbine engine and an accessory gearbox assembly coupled to the gas turbine engine. The HP spool tower shaft extracts mechanical power from the HP spool. The system has an LP spool tower shaft coupled between an LP spool of the gas turbine engine and the accessory gearbox assembly. The LP spool tower shaft extracts mechanical power from the LP spool. The system further has the accessory gearbox assembly having an accessory drive combining the mechanical power from both the HP spool and LP spool, having a planetary gear train coupled to the accessory drive, and having one or more engine-driven accessories coupled to the planetary gear train and driven by a planetary gear train output to generate power.

Abstract: There is provided a dual rack and pinion rotational inerter system for damping movement of a flight control surface of an aircraft having a support structure. The system has a flexible holding structure disposed between the flight control surface and the support structure. The system has a dual rack and pinion assembly held by the flexible holding structure. The system has a first terminal and a second terminal, coupled to the dual rack and pinion assembly. The first terminal is coupled to the flight control surface. The system has a pair of inertia wheels coupled to the flexible holding structure. The system has an axle element inserted through the inertia wheels, the flexible holding structure, and the dual rack and pinion assembly, such that when the flight control surface rotates, the dual rack and pinion rotational inerter system translates and rotates, and movement of the flight control surface is dampened.

Abstract: There is provided a translational inerter assembly for damping movement of a flight control surface of an aircraft. The assembly has a press fit element fixedly disposed within a first end of the flight control surface and rotatably movable with the flight control surface. The assembly further has an inertia element coupled to and installed in the press fit element. The assembly further has a torsion bar having a torsion bar first end coupled to and installed in the inertia element, and having a torsion bar second end fixedly attached to a support structure of the aircraft. Rotation of the flight control surface causes translational movement of the inertia element, via the press fit element, along a hinge axis of the flight control surface and along the torsion bar, resulting in the translational inerter assembly damping movement of the flight control surface.
