Patents by Inventor Spencer Troy Stober

Spencer Troy Stober has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20230360736
    Abstract: Techniques regarding determining thermodynamic observables of a chemical system are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can include a system, which can comprise a memory that can store computer executable components. The system can also include a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can include a potential energy component that can fit a potential energy function to a computed potential energy surface of a molecule. The computer executable components can also include a vibrational mode component that can compute an intramolecular vibrational mode of the molecule based on the potential energy surface fitted with the potential energy function. Also, the computer executable components can include a partition component that can compute a partition function based on the intramolecular vibrational mode.

  • Patent number: 7829512
    Abstract: A continuous process for preparing lithium complex greases improved by using a complexing agent of dimethyl glutarate, dimethyl adipate, glutaric acid, adipic acid, or mixtures thereof, and preferably also a specialized flash chamber to achieve a penetration split (60X-UW) of within ?20 mm/10 to 10 mm/10, a roll stability (D1831) of <30 mm/10, and a dropping point (D2265) of >240° C.
