  • System and Method for Sheet Forming Multiple Parts Using a Common Addendum
    Publication number: 20240069534
    Abstract: A method for forming a blank of sheet material includes a step of forming a target shape from the blank. The target shape includes a plurality of component structures connected via a common addendum. Each one of the plurality of component structures has a component-shape and a component-boundary. The common addendum extends between the component-boundary of each one of plurality of component structures and connects the component-boundary of each one of the plurality of component structures with a perimeter of the blank. The method minimizes a projected area of the common addendum via adjustment of a position and/or orientation of each of the component structures, thereby reducing a total amount of sheet material required to form the component structures.

  • METHOD OF PREDICTING BREAST CANCER PROGNOSIS
    Publication number: 20200263257
    Abstract: The present invention relates to biomarkers associated with breast cancer prognosis. These biomarkers include coding transcripts and their expression products, as well as non-coding transcripts, and are useful for predicting the likelihood of breast cancer recurrence in a breast cancer patient. The present invention also relates to a novel method of identifying intergenic sequences that correlate with a clinical outcome.
