Abstract: A self-expanding intravascular medical device including a multi-component assembly with a self-expanding outer cage component comprising a plurality of struts; and a single cell wave-shape component disposed within the self-expanding outer cage component forming a channel therein. The proximal end of the single cell wave-shape component is connected to the self-expanding outer cage component at a proximal joint.

Abstract: An image processing method for harmonizing images acquired by a first camera and a second camera connected to a vehicle and arranged in such a way as their fields of view cover a same road space at different times as the vehicle travels along a travel direction is disclosed. The method includes: acquiring by a selected camera, a first image at a first time; selecting a first region of interest bounding a road portion from the first image; sampling the first region of interest; acquiring by the other camera, a second image in such a way that the road portion is included in a second region of interest; sampling the second region of interest; and determining one or more correction parameters for harmonizing images acquired by the first and second cameras, based on a comparison between the image content of the first and second regions of interest.

Abstract: A risk management system includes one or more computer-readable storage media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform natural language processing to categorize threats to assets and perform correlated risk analyses for threats. The instructions cause the one or more processors generate risk scores for assets using threat data and one or more asset risk profiles reflecting characteristics of the assets, the risk scores weighted based on impact weights of threats. Furthermore, the instructions cause one or more processors to generate a plurality of graphic user interfaces including one or more of a map providing visual representations of the assets, locations of the assets, asset risk scores, and threats to assets, a forecast of asset risk scores, an asset summary, an asset risk profile editor, and a consolidated view of rank ordered assets and threats.

Abstract: A clamp for coupling mating radially projecting flanges, each flange having a tapered outer face. The clamp includes at least a pair of component halves. Each half includes a generally U-shaped cross-sectional profile having a base portion and two opposing side limbs projecting from the base portion defining a recess intermediate the side limbs for receiving the mating flanges and a bolt and a lug for fastening the component halves together. Each side limb has a contact face for abutting a tapered face of a flange and a non-contact face. The base portion has a non-contact face. The contact faces of the side limbs are remote from the non-contact face of the base portion.

Abstract: A clamp for coupling mating radially projecting flanges, each flange having a coupling surface and a tapered face remote from the coupling surface. The clamp comprising at least a pair of component halves, each half comprising a general U-shaped cross-sectional profile having a base portion and two opposing side limbs projecting from the base portion defining a recess intermediate the side limbs for receiving the mating radially projecting flanges and means for fastening the component halves together. The recesses face each other defining a central aperture therebetween. Each side limb has one or more distinct faces comprising face and a non-contact face and the base portion has a non-contact face. The contact faces of the side limbs are remote from the non-contact face of the base portion.
