  • Patent number: 10358076
    Abstract: A semitrailer is configured as a mobile presentation enclosure where the semitrailer rests on the ground when detached from a truck which enables individuals to easily access a floor top surface in an interior of the semitrailer by taking one step up onto the floor top surface in the interior of the semitrailer.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20070206716
    Abstract: A method for plasma containment comprises varying the system energy subject to Maxwell's equations, momentum moment equations, and adiabatic equations of state, without imposing a quasi-neutrality condition. In one embodiment, electrons are confined by magnetic forces and ions by internal, electrostatic forces that arise due to charge separation of the two fluids. In one embodiment, input parameters for the energy variation process are selected so as to satisfy a plasma beta parameter condition, thereby reducing the number of control variables by one. The radial scale length for cylindrically symmetric plasmas in one-dimensional equilibrium is characterized by the electron skin depth. Such plasmas can be confined as a high aspect ratio toroid having compact dimensions. Applications of the invention include neutron generation, x-ray generation, and power generation.

  • Patent number: 7020717
    Abstract: A distributed messaging method for publishing topical data messages in a communications network can include the steps of receiving in a first message router from a data consumer a request to subscribe to a message topic; responsive to receiving the subscription request, retrieving from a message topic server a location of a second message router communicatively linked to a data publisher able to provide data messages consonant with the requested message topic; establishing an interprocess communications connection between the first and second message routers; and, transmitting data messages from the data publisher over the established interprocess communications link to the data consumer.
