Publication number: 20240124676Abstract: A improved method of additive manufacturing of a recycled granulate is provided. The method comprises providing a starting article. A shredder shreds the starting article to give a shredded product. A granulator shreds the shredded product to give a recycled granulate. The recycled granulate is fed into an additive manufacturing machine. The additive manufacturing machine prints a printed article using the recycled granulate. The method does not comprise a step of compounding the recycled granulate using a twin screw extruder. The starting article, the shredded product, and the recycle granulate each comprise a fiber reinforced polymer composite.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Matt Korey, Halil Tekinalp, Soydan Ozcan, Peter Wang, Amber Hubbard, David Nuttall, Mitchell Rencheck

Patent number: 11934686Abstract: A set of host data items is received for programming to the memory subsystem. The set of host data items is programmed to a first region of the memory subsystem that includes one or more memory devices. A determination is made that a sequence at which the set of host data items are programmed across memory devices of the first region does not correspond to a target sequence associated with accessing the set of host data items via the first region. The target sequence corresponds to a sequence that enables a host data items programmed to the memory sub-system to be accessed in parallel. The set of host data items is copied from the first region to a second region of the memory subsystem. A sequence at which the set of host data items is copied to memory devices of the second region corresponds to the target sequence.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Karl David Schuh, Kishore Kumar Muchherla, Daniel Jerre Hubbard, James Fitzpatrick

Patent number: 11913040Abstract: Engineered transcriptional activator-like effectors (TALEs) are versatile tools for genome manipulation with applications in research and clinical contexts. One current drawback of TALEs is that the 5? nucleotide of the target is specific for thymine (T). TALE domains with alternative 5? nucleotide specificities could expand the scope of DNA target sequences that can be bound by TALEs. Another drawback of TALEs is their tendency to bind and cleave off-target sequence, which hampers their clinical application and renders applications requiring high-fidelity binding unfeasible. This disclosure provides methods and strategies for the continuous evolution of proteins comprising DNA-binding domains, e.g., TALE domains. In some aspects, this disclosure provides methods and strategies for evolving such proteins under positive selection for a desired DNA-binding activity and/or under negative selection against one or more undesired (e.g., off-target) DNA-binding activities.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2021Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: President and Fellows of Harvard CollegeInventors: David R. Liu, Basil Hubbard, Ahmed Hussein Badran

Publication number: 20230168443Abstract: A terminal includes modules adapted to be sequentially assembled together in a serial chain to build the terminal. At least some of the modules each include a module housing, a ruggedized optical output port provided on the module housing, a plug and play input connection location, a plug and play expansion connection location provided on the module housing, and an asymmetric power splitter within the module housing for splitting optical power from the plug and play input location asymmetrically between the ruggedized optical output port and the plug and play expansion connection location. The plug and play input connection locations and the plug and play expansion connection locations of adjacent modules in the serial chain are adapted to mate with respect to one another.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2020Publication date: June 1, 2023Applicant: COMMSCOPE TECHNOLOGIES LLCInventors: Paul David HUBBARD, David Albert DE CRAEMER, Jan Jozef Julia Maria ERREYGERS

Patent number: 11579392Abstract: An indexed cable arrangement can be installed in a re-enterable housing. The optical fibers of the cable are indexed between a first; ruggedized multi-fiber connector and a second multi-fiber connector. The second multi-fiber connector may be non-ruggedized and disposed within the housing (e.g., at an adapter) or ruggedized and disposed external of the housing (e.g., terminating a stub cable). One or more drop lines are terminated by respective non-ruggedized, single-fiber connectors disposed within the housing. In certain examples, drop lines may be split into multiple connectorized single-fiber outputs.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2019Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: COMMSCOPE TECHNOLOGIES LLCInventors: Patrick Jacques Ann Diepstraten, Dean R. Pettigrew, Paul David Hubbard, Steven James Dick, Dennata Radiansari

Patent number: 10545308Abstract: A flat drop cable has notches or other structures for enhancing the stripability of the jacket from the a core of the flat drop cable. The notches can have an angled configuration with surfaces that converge as the notch extends into the jacket. Inner edges of the notches can be positioned along a tear path that intersects the core of the flat drop cable. For example, the notches can be offset from a minor axis of the flat drop cable a sufficient distance such that the notches are positioned outside a central boundary region that extends tangent to sides of the core and parallel to the minor axis of the flat drop cable.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2018Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignees: CommScope Technologies LLC, CommScope Technologies Australia Pty Ltd., CommScope Telecommunications (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.Inventors: Aly Fahd, Wayne M.
