Patents by Inventor Fuchang Liu

Fuchang Liu has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8717382
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of detecting collisions on a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). Each collision detection object Oi is projected onto a reference direction, thus obtaining an interval Ii represented by a set {mi, Mi}. Radix sorting based on obtained mi for all Oi, thus obtaining a sorted list L. The sorted list is swept, and then colliding pairs Pi are detected. All colliding pairs are configured into a single set, thus obtaining a final colliding pair P. On a GPU, SaP can be performed on a plurality of collision detection objects in parallel using the blocks of a plurality of threads.

  • Patent number: 7005474
    Abstract: The invention discloses an acrylic acid-modified epoxy polyester resin and the preparation process thereof. The resin comprises 100 pbw of a copolymer (A) formed from an unsaturated fatty acid-modified polyester and a bisphenol A type epoxy resin, and 20-40 pbw of poly(meth)acrylic acid (ester) (B). The preparation process comprises the following steps: (1) alcoholyzing a drying oil with a polyol; (2) adding successively, to the product from step (1), a dibasic anhydride, a fatty acid containing a conjugated double bond and an epoxy resin, and esterifying to obtain an epoxy polyester; and (3) copolymerizing the epoxy polyester from step (2) and an acrylic monomer. This invention also provides a water-based emulsion containing said resin, and a water-based paint exhibiting excellent antirust property and having low production cost.
