Abstract: An acoustic resonator is cut, formed, or milled into the frame, or attached to the frame, of a folding knife to any dimensional specifications that support vibration at a desired sound effect frequency. The sound effect, sometimes referred to as “shwing”, “schwing”, “ting” or “ping”, is acoustically similar to the sound effect a Samurai makes when pulling his sword from its sheath or when he strikes another sword.

Abstract: A method of and a system for processing a slurry containing organic components, such as biomass, having a water contents of at least 50%, comprises a pump and heater or heat exchanger to bring the liquid in the slurry in a supercritical state. A reactor converts at least a part of the organic components in the slurry. A separator removes gaseous products from the converted slurry. A mixer adds fluid from the converted slurry to the slurry upstream from the reactor.

Abstract: Techniques for data analysis and user guidance are provided for determining and providing one or more treatments to a user based on where the user is or will be in their menstrual cycle. In certain embodiments, a method of personalizing diabetes treatment based on information relating to a menstrual cycle of a user is provided. The method includes measuring, using a glucose monitoring system, blood glucose measurements of the user. The method further includes receiving information relating to the menstrual cycle of the user. The method further includes determining a treatment for the user to achieve a target blood glucose during a sub-phase or phase of the menstrual cycle of the user based on at least one of historical data associated with the user and historical data associated with a stratified group of users.

Abstract: Interactive assistances for executing natural language queries to data sets may be performed. A natural language query may be received. Candidate entity linkages may be determined between an entity recognized in the natural language query and columns in data sets. The candidate linkages may be ranked according to confidence scores which may be evaluated to detect ambiguity for an entity linkage. Candidate entity linkages may be provided to a user via an interface to select an entity linkage to use as part of completing the natural language query.

Abstract: A combustion system for a vehicle having an engine includes a hydrogen fuel system having a fuel source providing a hydrogen fuel, a combustor operable to combust the hydrogen fuel to generate combustion gases, and a fuel delivery assembly operable to deliver the hydrogen fuel from the fuel source to the combustor. A first control system has a first update rate and is operable to control one or more operational aspects of the turbine engine. A second control system is in communication with the first control system and the hydrogen fuel system and has a second update rate faster than the first update rate. The second control system is operable to monitor at least one parameter associated with the hydrogen fuel system and output at least one control signal to the hydrogen fuel system to control the delivery or the combustion of the hydrogen fuel.

Abstract: Game consoles utilize streamed content over a data network, such as multiplayer scenarios where disparately located players may interact with one another. Streamed interactions may be competing with other computing devices and associated software applications running in parallel. Such a competition for available bandwidth within may result in data congestion, which may in turn cause perceivable delays and/or jitter. However, some types of data are more susceptible to perceivable delays and/or jitter than other types of data. The presently disclosed technology distinguishes between types of streamed data content and tags the streamed data content according to a QoS metric. QoS packet tagging indicates a priority to handling the data within nodes and links of a data network. Further, the presently disclosed technology permits user configurable tagging settings that allow the user to customize tagging specific to their network environment.

Abstract: A method for providing overspeed protection for a gas turbine engine having an engine shaft includes monitoring, via an overspeed protection system, a torque of the engine shaft. The method also includes determining, via the overspeed protection system, at least one additional condition of the engine shaft. Further, the method includes determining, via the overspeed protection system, an overspeed condition of the gas turbine engine when the torque of the engine shaft drops below a torque threshold and the at least one additional condition of the engine shaft is indicative of the gas turbine engine being in an operational state. Thus, the overspeed condition is indicative of an above normal rotational speed of the engine shaft. In addition, the method includes initiating a shutdown procedure for the gas turbine engine in response to the determined overspeed condition to reduce the rotational speed of the engine shaft.

Abstract: An example antenna system includes a zig-zag antenna array. The zig-zag antenna array includes a stack of conductive disks and at least one crossed zig-zag antenna extending through the stack of conductive disks. The at least one crossed zig-zag antenna includes an element pair that includes a plurality of crossed zig-zag antenna segment pairs between the stack of conductive disks. A respective crossed zig-zag antenna segment pair extends between a respective lower conductive disk and a respective upper conductive disk. The example antenna system further includes a control circuit coupled to the element pair to switch the crossed zig-zag antenna segment pairs to drive the crossed zig-zag antenna segment pairs to transmit or receive radio frequency (RF) waves with polarization states that include vertical, horizontal, elliptical, or circular polarization.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed defining haptic patterns that include both haptic events and audio events, and optionally include video or animation. The haptic patterns can be called from an application or included as an attachment to a message and played on an electronic device that receives the message. A haptics application programming interface has a haptic experience mapping functionality that generates a same, or similar, haptic experience on different manufacturers or models of electronic devices having different haptic hardware. Haptic patterns can include synchronized haptic and audio events. Haptic event attributes include start time, sharpness, and intensity. Sharpness and/or intensity can be controlled via a parameter envelope for a single event, or for multiple events in a haptic pattern. Sharpness indicates a quality of the tactile sensation of a haptic event, from smooth or rounded, to sharp or precise.

Abstract: A tongue blade (retractor) with fenestrated suction ports along the length of the blade to remove (suction) smoke, fluid and/or particulate from the oral cavity during surgery (e.g. tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, oral cavity/tongue/airway procedures). This blade can connect to routine mouth retractors and commonly available suction tubing. It has a groove along the length of the blade to accommodate endotracheal tubes for stabilization and to minimize pressure against the tongue during retraction.
