Abstract: A method of detecting and compensating for a non-operational mold cavity in an injection molding apparatus having a plurality of mold cavities and an injection molding screw or ram includes injecting, via the injection molding screw or ram, a molten thermoplastic material into the plurality of mold cavities. The method includes measuring a first process parameter of the injection molding apparatus at a pre-determined time during or after the injecting. The method also includes determining, based on the first process parameter, whether one or more mold cavities of the plurality of mold cavities are non-operational. Then, when it is determined that one or more mold cavities are non-operational, the method includes automatically adjusting the first process parameter or a second process parameter of the injection molding apparatus.

Abstract: Mattress assemblies and/or pillows include at least one auxetic foam layer.

Abstract: In one general aspect, a method can include capturing first features associated with a real-world physical area as a model and associating an AR object with a fixed location within the model. The method can include capturing second features associated with a real-world location corresponding with a portion of the real-world physical area. The method can include associating the captured second features with a location in the model, corresponding with the real-world location, as an AR anchor where the AR object is associated with the AR anchor.

Abstract: A root portion of a root-analog dental implant may include a core positioned in an approximate center of the root portion of the dental implant. The core may provide mechanical strength and/or support for the dental implant and may include one or more struts. The root-analog dental implant may further include a porous surface positioned on a portion of a vertically oriented exterior surface of the core. The struts may be configured and arranged to provide mechanical strength and/or support for the root-analog dental implant.

Abstract: A fluid displacement and pressurization device which provides both a substantial amount of thread engagement as well as provides for single hand control for all operational manipulations including maintaining a set fill volume, rapid filling and displacement, and pressurization and retention of evacuation positioning during balloon depressurization. The device allows for the use of one hand to not only transition the device from micro-movement control to macro-movement control, but also regarding rotating, pushing or pulling the handle of the plunger.

Abstract: A radio-frequency antenna comprises a radiating element comprising a plurality n of D-shaped arms, each extending in a respective radial direction relative to a centre of the radiating element and substantially equally spaced around the centre, such that the radiating element is rotationally symmetric.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the production of a carbon nanotube structure which has substantially aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and to a temperature-controlled flow-through reactor.

Abstract: Distributed system resources may be managed by applying user created policies to the resources. To ensure that valid policies are applied, remote validation for the policies may be implemented. A validation event for a policy may be detected. A remote validation agent may be identified for the policy and a validation request sent to the remote validation agent that includes information for validating the policy. The remote validation agent may return a validation result for the policy. If valid, a policy action that triggered the remote validation event for the policy may be allowed. If invalid, the policy action that triggered the remote validation event for the policy may be denied.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for selecting augmenting reality (AR) objects based on contextual cues associated with an image captured by a camera associated with electronic device. Contextual cues are obtained at an electronic device and AR objects are identified from a memory associated with the electronic device. The electronic device implements a processor employing image segmentation techniques to combine the identified AR objects with the captured image and render the combined image for display at a display associated with the electronic device.

Abstract: An antenna is provided. The antenna comprises a dielectric lamina having a first face and a second face opposite the first face. The antenna further comprises a groundplane on the first face of the dielectric lamina, wherein the groundplane is a planar conductive groundplane comprising first and second L-shaped apertures. The antenna further comprises a microstrip transmission line on the second face of the dielectric lamina.

Abstract: Multiple edits to a hierarchical data structure may be atomically applied. A request to perform modifications with respect to a portion or the entire hierarchical data structure may be received. A copy of the requested portion of the hierarchical data structure may be created separate from the hierarchical data structure. The portion of the hierarchical data structure may remain available for read access. Modifications may be applied to the copy of the portion of the hierarchical data structure. In response to a request to commit the modifications to the portion of the hierarchical data structure, the copy of the portion of the hierarchical data structure may atomically replace the portion of the hierarchical data structure.

Abstract: An antenna arrangement is disclosed, comprising a first body comprising a communications device including an antenna for transmitting and/or receiving signals via the antenna, and a second body comprising a conductive parasitic element for electromagnetic coupling with the antenna. The first body is physically separate from, or is removably attachable from, the second body. An associated method of transmitting and/or receiving signals is further disclosed.

Abstract: Resource data objects describing resources in a system may be maintained in multiple different hierarchies for applying policies to manage the resources. Lookup requests may access the different hierarchies to determine which policies are applicable to a given resource based on the policies identified in each of the hierarchies. Modifications to hierarchies may be performed in isolation so that the application of policies in other hierarchies is unchanged by modifications to a different hierarchy. Access restrictions may be enforced with respect to hierarchies so that different users may be permitted access to different hierarchies for system resource management.
