  • PROCESS FOR FORMING CERAMIC BODIES WITH INTERNAL PASSAGES OR CHAMBERS USING POWDER PRESSING AROUND AN INTERNAL MOLD
    Publication number: 20240009887
    Abstract: A process (10) of forming an internal mold (IM) and using the internal mold (IM) to press-mold an internal passage or an internal cavity within a ceramic body includes making or obtaining first and second flexible mold halves (102,104); molding a positive internal mold (IM) of a meltable or sublimable or otherwise heat-removeable material; pressing a volume of binder-coated ceramic powder with the positive internal mold (IM) inside the volume of powder to form a pressed body; heating the pressed body to remove the positive internal mold from the pressed body; and sintering the pressed body to form a monolithic ceramic body having an internal passage or an internal cavity.

  • Method and apparatus for providing dual protocol MBMS for facilitating IPV4 to IPV6 migration in E-UTRAN
    Patent number: 9622049
    Abstract: A method of facilitating multimedia broadcast multicast services (MBMS) in a communications network including one or more first evolved node Bs (eNBs) having backhaul interfaces for a first internet protocol (IP) version and one or more second eNBs having backhaul interfaces for a second IP version includes receiving, at a first network element, an initial MBMS content stream; generating, at the first network element, based on the initial MBMS content stream, a first MBMS content stream and a second MBMS content stream; transmitting the first MBMS content stream from the first network element to the one or more first eNBs using a first IP multicast address of the first IP version; and transmitting the second MBMS content stream from the first network element to the one or more second eNBs using a second IP multicast address of the second IP version.
