Abstract: The present invention relates to a breaching device which may be used to gain access to a door, window, or other structure. More specifically, the present invention is a breaching device including a fixed breaching structure and a moving breaching structure to provide torque and angle forces on the structure to be breached. The fixed breaching structure includes a first fixed blade set arranged to remain in a fixed position while a first moving blade of the moving breaching structure is actuated to open a first gap. Then, if necessary, a second fixed blade set and a second moving blade of the device are used to complete the separation of the door from its frame. The second blade set may be used to complete the breach of the structure or may be designed as a multi-purpose tool to use on a different structure. The first fixed blades are relatively shorter than the second fixed blades. The first moving blade is shorter than the second moving blade.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a region of semiconductor material having a first side and a second side opposite to the first side. Active device structures are adjacent to the first side, the active device structures comprising source regions and gate electrodes. A first gate conductor is at the first side electrically connected to the gate electrodes, a drain region is at the second side, a second gate conductor is at the second side, and through-semiconductor vias extending from the first side towards the side and electrically connecting the first gate electrode to the second gate electrode. A source electrode is at the first side electrically connected to the source regions, and a drain electrode is at the second side electrically connected to the drain region. The through-semiconductor vias are electrically isolated from the source regions and the drain region. The structure provides a gate/drain up with a source-down configuration.

Abstract: A glassware polishing system includes a base and a wall extending upward from the base. The wall circumscribes and defines a chamber within an inner side of the wall. A first polishing head having a first spindle extends upward from the base within the chamber and has a polishing material disposed about the first spindle. A second polishing head having a second spindle extends upward from the base within the chamber and has a polishing material disposed about the second spindle. At least one motor is disposed in the base and is configured to rotate the polishing heads about vertical axes of rotation defined by the spindles. The polishing heads may simultaneously polish internal and external surfaces of the glassware when the first polishing heads are rotated by the at least one motor.

Each of the plurality of medical diagnostic test kits can include equipment necessary to perform a particular self-administered medical diagnostic test. The plurality of medical diagnostic test kits can include at least a first medical diagnostic kit adapted to facilitate user completion of a first medical diagnostic test and a second medical diagnostic kit adapted to facilitate user completion of a second medical diagnostic test different from the first medical diagnostic test. The container can include a machine-readable code located on an external surface of the container.

Abstract: A method of managing operator take-over of autonomous vehicle. The method includes gathering information on an external surrounding of the autonomous vehicle; analyzing the gathered information on the external surrounding of the autonomous vehicle to determine an upcoming traffic pattern; gathering information on an operator of the autonomous vehicle; analyzing the gathered information on the operator of the autonomous vehicle to determine an operator behavior; predicting an operator action based on the determined upcoming traffic pattern and the determined operator behavior; and initiating a predetermined vehicle response based on the predicted operator action. The predicting the operator action includes comparing the determined upcoming traffic pattern with a similar historic traffic pattern and retrieving a historical operator action in response to the similar historical pattern.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for reducing vibrations and loads in one or more rotor blades on a rotor hub of a wind turbine when the rotor hub is in a locked or idling condition. An electronically tunable spring mass damper is attached to a fixed location on one or more of the rotor blades. The spring mass damper is maintained on the rotor blades during the locked or idling condition of the rotor hub. The method includes sensing movement of the mass component resulting from the vibrations induced in the blade. Based on the sensed movement of the mass component, the spring mass damper is automatically tuned to the amplitude of the vibrations by operating the electric machine as a generator in a virtual damper mode and/or tuned to the frequency of the vibrations by operating the electrical machine as a motor-generator in a virtual spring mode.
