  • Publication number: 20240139109
    Abstract: The pharmacokinetic profile of the SGLT2 inhibitor bexagliflozin can be improved by formulating it as an extended release tablet. Compared with standard immediate-release dosage forms these tablets can permit a lower peak plasma concentration, Cmax, while maintaining plasma concentrations at therapeutic levels for a desired period. This can be used, for instance, to administer lower doses while still providing the same pharmacological effect.

  • Patent number: 11519147
    Abstract: The present invention provides a low-energy coastal beach restoration method, comprising: constructing a convex beach berm, determining an aspect ratio of the beach berm edge, determining a beach face slope, performing sand replenishment, determining the dredging zone and dredging depth, and determining the steps of building a sediment groin. The present invention utilizes the feature of the convergence effect of the wave energy on the headland, artificially constructs a convex headland shaped beach berm, and determines the required beach face range and slope according to the convex beach berm edge. During beach restoration, dredging around the beach face, while reducing mud sources and increasing the nearshore water depth, it also builds a convex nearshore terrain, which effectively increases the wave energy at the restoration site and improves the coast muddy situation of low-energy coasts.

  • Patent number: 11475199
    Abstract: Simulating a circuit design using a data processing system includes partitioning the circuit design into a top-level design and a sub-design along a boundary defined by one or more stream channels coupling a component of the top-level design with the sub-design. The sub-design is extracted from the circuit design and replaced with a stub having a client socket. A wrapper having a server socket is added to the sub-design. The top-level design and the sub-design are compiled into respective simulation kernels. The circuit design is simulated by executing the respective simulation kernels concurrently. The respective kernels communicate over a socket connection established by the client socket and the server socket. In other aspects, the partitioning results in partitions such that one partition is simulated as software and another partition is implemented in circuitry such that the circuit design may be hardware co-simulated.

  • Publication number: 20220247866
    Abstract: Voicemail spam detection is performed based on content of voicemail messages. The content of an incoming voicemail message is compared to a spam template that includes a representation of a spam voicemail. Spam templates may be generated based on spam indications provided by users for voicemail messages they have received. User indications for sufficiently similar voicemail messages may be aggregated by maintaining a vote count for a spam template that reflects how many times a user has indicated a matching voicemail message is spam. A spam template may also include an occurrence count that reflects how many times voicemail messages matching a spam template have been detected in a telephony system. An incoming voicemail message may be compared to spam templates and, responsive to a match of content and/or a corresponding vote count or occurrence count meeting a condition, the voicemail message may be identified as spam.

In this method a ship sway simulator is build using a 2-axis ganged platform, natural wind is simulating generated using a wind tunnel flow field. Then the ship sway simulator is controlled to simulate the ship spatial motion under the disturbance of stormy waves. Furthermore, the data of the wind speed and direction is obtained under different sway angles and speeds. So that the database of wind direction and speed measurement, attitude measurement, actual wind direction and speed measurement is formed. Subsequently, a calibration model based on BP neural network is constructed using this database, a ship real wind direction and speed calibration algorithm is formed, which can calibrate a ship real wind measuring device.
