Abstract: An air interface plane (AIP) of a radio frequency (RF) aperture includes: a circuit board having a first side and a second side opposite the first side; and a matrix of tapered elements arranged on the first side of the circuit board and secured to the circuit board, the matrix of tapered elements cooperating to at least one of receive or transmit an over-the-air RF signal. Suitably, each tapered element of the matrix has: a central hub extending along a longitudinal axis from a hub base which is proximate to the first side of the circuit board to an apex of the tapered element which is distal from the first side of the first circuit board; and a plurality of arms extending from the central hub at the apex of the tapered element, each of the plurality of arms including a first portion that projects the arm radially away from the longitudinal axis and a second portion that projects the arm longitudinally toward the first side of the circuit board.

Abstract: Organizing and publishing content in a content management system wherein content, including text, images and video, is received and segmented into content atoms. One or more tags are associated with the content atoms to allow device specific presentation of the content atoms.

Abstract: Fabric care compositions that include a linear copolymer. Methods and uses relating to such compositions and/or graft copolymers.

Abstract: A friction lining for a brake pad of a braking system includes a solid body of friction material having plurality of slots intersecting at a vortex zone formed as a circular recess in the friction lining. The slots open into the vortex zone at offset locations to promote circulation of air within the vortex zone. The slots extend along a horizontal arc that follows the curvature of a rotor of the braking system when in use. Vertical slots may be included that also open into the vortex zone at offset locations.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage medium, for integrating components into objects that are to be 3D printed. One of the methods includes obtaining a three-dimensional model of a first object; receiving an input identifying an additional component; generating a digital representation of the additional component; integrating the digital representation of the additional component with the three-dimensional model; and providing the three-dimensional model with the integrated digital representation to a 3D printer for fabrication.

Abstract: An assembly for dispensing a cosmetic stick includes a housing base and an extracting tube for extracting the remaining portion of a cosmetic stick from another dispenser. The assembly also includes a plunger with a plunger cap that moves within the extracting tube when the housing base is rotated with respect to the extracting tube to push the cosmetic stick through the extracting tube until a portion of the cosmetic stick is exposed at a top end of the top section of the extracting tube.

Abstract: A code verification tool verifies that code generated from a model represents all of the functionality of the model and does not contain any unintended functionality. The code verification tool may receive for examination a model or an intermediate representation (IR) of the model and the generated code or an intermediate representation of the generated code. The code verification tool may create further intermediate representations of the model and/or the generated code in order to compare the functionality presented in both.

Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms described herein facilitate the determination of a relative skill score for a poker player. According to various embodiments, a first expected stack value for a designated player may be determined prior to a voluntary player action event associated with the designated player in a poker hand. A second expected stack value for the designated player may be determined after the voluntary player action event. A designated relative skill score for the designated player may be determined by calculating a difference between the second expected stack value and the first expected stack value. The designated relative skill score may be stored on a storage medium.

Abstract: A cryogenic device is disclosed which has a cryogenic chamber, temperature sensor, a liquid cryogen injection zone, a source of heat, and a controller, in response to temperature data obtained from the temperature sensor, the injection of liquid cryogen into the injection zone and the application of heat, to control the temperature in the cryogenic chamber. The device may utilise a second source or a higher temperature gas as the source of heat and may utilise a multilayered plate insulator between the injection sites for cryogen and the cryogenic chamber. The device may also incorporate an overflow monitoring system and/or an automated cryogen filling system.
