Abstract: An uninterruptible power apparatus is coupled between a power grid and a load. The uninterruptible power apparatus includes a bypass path, a power conversion module, and a control module. The bypass path is coupled to the power grid through a grid terminal, and coupled to the load through a load terminal. The control module turns off a first thyristor and a second thyristor by injecting a second voltage into the load terminal during a forced commutation period. The control module calculates a magnetic flux offset amount based on an error amount between the second voltage and a voltage command, and provides a compensation command in response to the magnetic flux offset amount. The control module controls the DC/AC conversion circuit to provide a third voltage to the load terminal based on the compensation command and the voltage command.

Abstract: An optical receiver device includes a boost converter circuit, an optical receiver circuit, and a pulse width modulation controller circuitry. The boost converter circuit is configured to convert a supply voltage according to a pulse width modulation signal, in order to generate an output voltage. The optical receiver circuit is configured to set a gain according to the output voltage, in order to convert an optical signal to a data signal according to the gain. The pulse width modulation controller circuitry is configured to perform a digital to analog conversion according to a control code to gradually adjust a current associated with the output voltage, and to compare the output voltage with a reference voltage to generate the pulse width modulation signal.

Abstract: A data monitoring method for a standardized management system includes: obtaining log files of a standardized management system; parsing the log files to obtain parsed data, and saving the parsed data in a database; and displaying queried target data and historical data corresponding to the target data on a same interface according to a preset rule and the database.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of reducing neurodegeneration and/or TDP43 associated aggregation, comprising knocking down the expression of Nuclear Paraspeckle Assembly Transcript 1 (NEAT1) or LncRNA NEAT1. Also provided are methods for screening a candidate agent that reduces neurodegeneration and/or TDP43 associated aggregation in a cell, treating or preventing a neurodegenerative disorder, delaying or preventing the onset of a neurodegenerative disorder or reducing a risk for developing a neurodegenerative disorder in a subject and determining whether a subject is suffering from, or at a risk of developing a neurodegenerative disorder, comprising measuring the presence of cytoplasmic NEAT1 in a biological sample, wherein the presence is indicative of the risk of developing a neurodegenerative disorder.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are kits comprising transcription factors for inducing a fibroblast cell into an induced embryonic neural progenitor cell. The induced embryonic neural progenitor cell is then capable of differentiating into an astrocyte, an oligodendrocyte or a neuron. Also disclosed are the uses of the kit as a platform for selecting a drug candidate to treat neurological diseases.

Abstract: A radiator funnel assembly facilitates filling refrigerant liquids in different radiators. The assembly provides various sizes and types of adapters and caps, with each adapter and cap having a unique identifier to facilitate assemblage and indicate a matching radiator fill opening. The assembly includes a funnel configured to receive a radiator fluid and carries the radiator fluid through a spout. Multiple conduits detachably attach in series to the spout. Multiple adapters receive the conduits and engage a specific radiator fill opening. Each adapter has a unique identifier that enables identification of the connecting conduit, and also identifies the specific type of radiator fill opening that is operable with the adapter. Multiple caps fasten the adapters to the radiator opening. Each cap has a unique identifier to identify and match to the appropriate adapter. This is useful for matching the adapter and cap to different types of radiators.

Abstract: A stackable and nestable food containment system provides temporary storage of edible substances. The system comprises tray members and lids that have an interengageable relationship. The tray member has a bottom surface with at least one first groove. The lid has at least one second groove that substantially matches the first groove. The grooves are aligned to enable arrangement of the tray members in a stacked configuration, while also restricting lateral slippage between tray members. When the tray members are covered with their correlating lids and in arranged in a stacked arrangement, spillage is also inhibited. Each tray has at least one barrier that forms three separate compartments. The compartments serve to segregate different edible substances, and also create an interlocking arrangement between tray members in a nested configuration. The tray members and the lids are fabricated from a material that is microwavable and dishwasher safe.

Abstract: A stackable can rack assembly provides a plurality of modular racks that facilitate both the loading of cans and the presentation of the cans for removal by a consumer. Multiple modular racks can be configured in a variety of stacked arrangement. A plurality of shelves are disposed at a slope to create a gravity fed arrangement to enable the cans to roll forward for dispensing. A pair of side panels support the shelves. The side panels comprise a top flat bar defined by a convex hump having a flat surface, and a bottom flat bar defined by a concave hump having a flat surface. The humps couple together and the flat surface enhance stability for stacking multiple modular racks. At least one bracket affixes to the bottom flat bar to fasten the top and bottom flat bars together. A back panel provide structural integrity to the modular racks.
