Patent number: 10571399Abstract: In one example, an analyte detection package includes a substrate, surface-enhanced luminescence (SEL) structures extending from the substrate and a low wettability housing. The SEL structures have a first wettability for a given liquid. The low wettability housing extends from the substrate to form a chamber between the housing of the substrate about the SEL structures to receive an analyte containing solution. The housing has an inner surface adjacent the chamber, wherein the inner surface has a second wettability for the given liquid less than the first wettability.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2015Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Steven Barcelo, Ning Ge, Kevin Dooley, Zhiyong Li

Publication number: 20190017041Abstract: In one aspect, the invention relates to a peptide that forms a calcium-dependent hydrogel using a rationally engineered beta roll peptide. In the absence of calcium, the peptide is intrinsically disordered. Upon addition of calcium, the peptide forms a corkscrew-like structure. In one embodiment, one face of the beta roll is mutated to comprise leucine residues. In some embodiments, a leucine zipper forming helical domain to the engineered beta roll forms hydrogels by physical cross-linking in calcium rich environments.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2018Publication date: January 17, 2019Applicant: THE TRUSTEES OF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORKInventors: Scott BANTA, Mark A.

Publication number: 20190010875Abstract: A multi spool gas turbine engine with a differential having a selectively rotatable member which rotational speed determines a variable ratio between rotational speeds of driven and driving members of the differential. The driven member is engaged to the first spool and a rotatable shaft independent of the other spools (e.g. connected to a compressor rotor) is engaged to the driving member. First and second power transfer devices are engaged to the first spool and the selectively rotatable member, respectively. A circuit interconnects the power transfer devices and allows a power transfer therebetween, and a control unit controls the power being transferred between the power transfer devices. Power can thus be transferred between the first spool and the selectively rotatable member to change the speed ratio between the first spool and the rotatable shaft.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2018Publication date: January 10, 2019Inventors: Richard ULLYOTT, Keith MORGAN, Jean DUBREUIL, Lazar MILTROVIC, Kevin A.

Patent number: 10100500Abstract: According to an example, a system for managing a fluid condition in a pipe includes a controller to receive temperatures of the pipe detected by the temperature sensor over a period of time. The controller may determine, based upon the temperatures of the pipe over the period of time, a temperature profile of the pipe and may determine that the temperature profile of the pipe indicates that a freezing onset event has occurred. The freezing onset event may include a transition from a drop in temperature to an increase in temperature, in which the temperature during the transition is below a freezing point temperature of a fluid contained in the pipe. The controller may further trigger at least one of an alarm and an activation of a first freezing prevention device in response to the determination that the freezing onset event has occurred.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2014Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: Ent. Services Development Corporation LPInventors: Kevin Dooley, Richard Coull, Pat J. Reilly
