Publication number: 20240041498Abstract: The present disclosure relates to software used in planning the correction of bone deformities preoperatively or postoperatively, and in particular relates to virtually manipulating rings and struts of an external fixation frame in order to plan the steps for making a desired correction to two or more bone portions of a patient. The software can be used prior to surgery, allowing a user to virtually define a bone deformity, and virtually add and manipulate fixation rings and struts to the bone deformity. Based on the virtual manipulations, a correction plan can be generated that describes length adjustments that should be made to the plurality of model struts over a period of time to correct the bone deformity. The software can also be used after surgical fixation of the fixation frame and struts to the deformed bone.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Applicant: Stryker European Operations Holdings LLCInventors: Adam John Edelhauser, Ashish Gangwar, Sandeep Menon

Patent number: 11170573Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for the refining and coarsening of a polyhedra mesh. The refinement includes identifying a plurality of polyhedral cells within a polyhedra mesh. A plurality of parent faces having a plurality of parent face edges are extracted for each polyhedral cell within the polyhedra mesh. For each parent face, a plurality of nodes are defined and connected either isotropically or anisotropically. A plurality of non-overlapping child faces are generated with a perimeter defined by a combination of parent face edges and child face edges. A plurality of child cells are generated from the connection of child faces of the plurality of non-overlapping child faces. Subsequent coarsening of the plurality of child cells occurs by the simultaneous agglomeration into each respective parent cell.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2020Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: Ansys, Inc.Inventors: Sandeep Menon, Thomas Gessner

Patent number: 10349525Abstract: The present disclosure concerns an electrical circuit pattern on a substrate, as well as a method and system for forming same. In a typical embodiment, a light pattern is projected through a transparent layer to cause a patterned release of adhesion between a continuous material layer and the transparent layer. A release layer adhered to the patterned material layer is pulled off the substrate to separate the material having lower adhesion while leaving the material that was not exposed to form the electrical circuit pattern thereon.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2014Date of Patent: July 9, 2019Assignee: Nederlandse Organisatie voor toegepast-natuurwetenschappelijk onderzoek TNOInventors: Rob Jacob Hendriks, Edsger Constant Pieter Smits, Sandeep Menon Perinchery, Pim Groen

Patent number: 9859247Abstract: A method is provided for assembly of a micro-electronic component, in which a conductive die bonding material is used. This material includes a conductive thermosettable resin material or flux based solder and a dynamic release layer adjacent to the conductive thermoplastic material die bonding material layer A laser beam is impinged on the dynamic release layer, adjacent to the die bonding material layer, in such a way that the dynamic release layer is activated to direct conductive die bonding material matter towards the pad structure to be treated, to cover a selected part of the pad structure with a transferred conductive die bonding material. The laser beam is restricted in timing and energy, in such a way that the die bonding material matter remains thermosetting. Accordingly, adhesive matter can be transferred while preventing that the adhesive is rendered ineffective by thermal overexposure in the transferring process.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2013Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignees: Nederlandse Organisatie voor toegepast-natuurwetenschappelijk onderzoek TNO, IMEC vzwInventors: Edsger Constant Pieter Smits, Sandeep Menon Perinchery, Jeroen Van den Brand, Rajesh Mandamparambil, Harmannus Franciscus Maria Schoo

Publication number: 20150374920Abstract: A device and method is provided for drug supply. The device comprises a holder suitable for holding a carrier comprising a drug layer (151); a transmission part for transmitting a laser beam from a laser system, via the transmission part to the carrier; a placement provision; arranged for distancing the carrier from the skin or tissue; and a control mechanism. The control mechanism is arranged to moving a laser beam and/or the carrier relative to each other, in order to provide a virginal area of the carrier for the laser beam; and impinging the laser beam via the transmission part on the carrier; in such a way that the carrier is activated to eject a distinct quantity of drug transferred (50) in normal direction from the carrier from the drug layer into the skin or tissue. Accordingly drugs can be injected in a controlled way without using nozzles or needles.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2014Publication date: December 31, 2015Inventors: Sandeep Menon Perinchery, Harmannus Franciscus Maria Schoo, Sandeep Unnikrishnan
