Abstract: A method of forming a metal product. A metal alloy workpiece substrate is provided have pre-process dimensions. The dimensional differences are determined between the pre-process dimensions of the workpiece substrate and desired post-process dimensions of a post-process metal product formed from the workpiece substrate. A build-up thickness is determined of coating material required to obtain the desired post-process dimensions of the post-process metal product. A high-density coating process is performed to coat the workpiece substrate with a coating material to build-up a thickness of coating material effective to obtain desired finished dimensions after performing a sintering heat treatment process and/or a hot isostatic pressing treatment. The sintering heat treatment is performed on the coated workpiece substrate to densify the coating material.

Abstract: A method for fabricating organic light active devices using field-attractive Organic Light Active Material (“OLAM™”) microcapsules. The OLAM microcapsules are randomly dispersed within a monomer carrier fluid that is injected or otherwise disposed between two electrodes. The OLAM microcapsules may include additives that impart rheological properties, and other electrical, mechanical, optical and magnetic properties. The OLAM microcapsules form chains between the electrodes when an aligning field is applied. Holding the aligning field to keep the chains formed, the carrier fluid is cured and the OLAM microcapsule chains are locked into alignment between the electrodes. The problem of contamination of the OLAM material is the major factor limiting the display life span, and thus is a bar to commercial success.

Abstract: A cobalt-based alloy composition having a relatively small lanthanum addition and relatively large carbon content provides remarkable oxidation resistance and wear resistance at high temperatures. The cobalt-based alloy composition has a suitable combination of ductility and wear resistance at high temperatures to be effective as a hard face material for limiting the effects of chattering of blades during the operation of a gas turbine engine. Further, the cobalt-based alloy has a suitable combination of ductility, oxidation resistance and wear resistance and thus represents an improved hard facing material for the blade components of gas turbine engine.

Abstract: An aircraft antiterrorist security system is provided. An intrusion resistant door system separates a pilot cockpit area from a passenger area on an aircraft. A remotely activatable personnel incapacitating system is provided that is effective for incapacitating personnel located within the passenger area. A remote control system is provided that is effective for remotely activating the personnel incapacitating system. The remote control system may comprise a manually activatable actuator located in the pilot cockpit area. In addition, or alternatively, the remote control system may comprise a wirelessly activatable mechanism for receiving control signals from a ground-based location for remotely activating the personnel incapacitating system. Alternatively or additionally, the remote control system may comprise a passenger-activatable mechanism for enabling passengers to activate the personnel incapacitating system.

Abstract: A method for and a preservative composition for use in embalming a dead human body to temporarily maintain a desirable state of non-decomposition. The method comprising the steps of draining blood from the circulatory system of a dead body; and injecting a preservative composition into the drained circulatory system of the dead human body. The preservative composition consisting essentially of from 10 to 40% of each of the following components: a material selected from the group consisting of ascorbic acid, the sodium and potassium salts thereof and mixtures thereof; a material selected form the group consisting of citric acid, the sodium and potassium salts thereof and mixtures thereof; a material selected from the group consisting of sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate and mixtures thereof; and material selected from the group consisting of sodium and potassium sulfite, bisulfite, and metabisulfite and mixtures thereof.
