Abstract: A dynamic viscoelastic vibration neutralizer for industrial pipes includes a metallic housing, to which the shaft supports are fixed, by screws. The supports of the viscoelastic pieces and the supports of the housing itself, allow the junction of the device with the system to be controlled. An oscillating mass, fixed in the center of a metallic shaft, is supported by the shaft supports. two sets of viscoelastic pieces, are fixed by one of their ends to the supports of the viscoelastic pieces and by the other to the oscillating mass.

Abstract: A novel, pervasive approach to disseminating live streaming content combines secure distributed systems, WiFi multicast, erasure coding, source coding and opportunistic offloading using hyperlocal mobile edge clouds. The solution disclosed to the technical problem of disseminating live streaming content without requiring a substantial equipment, planning and deployment of appropriate network infrastructure points offers an 11 fold reduction on the infrastructural WiFi bandwidth usage without having to modify any existing software or firmware stacks while ensuring stream integrity, authorization and authentication.

Abstract: Paricalcitol, a synthetic vitamin D analog, is purified to a purity greater than 99.7% by crystallization from solution in isopropyl acetate solvent, followed by filtration and vacuum drying. Isopropyl acetate appears to be unique among commonly available and pharmaceutically acceptable solvents in its ability to precipitate paricalcitol in this high purity, essentially free of isomers thereof. In addition, paricalcitol of purity of at least 99.9% has been shown to have exceptional storage stability.
