Abstract: A system for electrical stimulation of the salivary glands for the treatment of dry mouth is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system includes a headset with an electronic control module, placed on the back head, and a stimulating module, placed on the area to be stimulated. Both modules are connected by an elastic arm. The stimulating module provides one or more pairs of electrodes in contact with neuro-sensitive areas of a patient, and is anchored in the ear canal. The position of the electrodes is adjustable for optimized stimulation. The system may be operated by control bottoms that are part of the electronic control module or by a mobile device, such as a wireless remote control, a smartphone, or a tablet. A mobile device camera may be used for correcting the placement of the electrodes.

Abstract: A sealing system which is designed to leverage the centrifugal acceleration of solids and liquids due to the natural rotation of the roller, expelling them outside, preventing most of the contamination from trying to penetrate the roller seals. Excess of contaminants that is not centrifugally expelled is blocked by the following internal sealing system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for monitoring states of application packages deployed on a cloud-based application deployment platform. A notification service retrieves a copy of a deployed application package from the cloud-based deployment platform, and determines libraries of the application package. The notification service can then determine security vulnerabilities in the libraries, and provide notifications on the vulnerabilities of the application package to a user or developer.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for monitoring states of application packages deployed on a cloud-based application deployment platform. A notification service retrieves a copy of a deployed application package and metadata associated with the application package from the cloud-based deployment platform, and identifies libraries of the application package. The notification service can then determine which, if any, libraries are or will become out-of-date, and obtain license information about the libraries. The notification service can provide notifications of any outdated components and on license compatibilities or incompatibilities. The notification service can automatically restage the application package, or update the license, upon finding outdated components or license incompatibilities.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for controlling the magnetic and electrical properties of materials. In one aspect, a multi-layer structure includes a first layer comprising a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material, and a second layer positioned within the multi-layer structure such that a first surface of the first layer is in direct physical contact with a second surface of the second layer. The second layer includes a material that undergoes structural phase transitions and metal-insulator transitions upon experiencing a change in temperature. One or both of the first and second layers are structured to allow a structural phase change associated with the second layer cause a change magnetic properties of the first layer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a robot for large-format, three-dimensional printing on a fixed surface, using five powered spindles. The inventive robot comprises an inkjet printing block, means for moving and orienting said printing assembly along several axes, at least one unit for controlling said means and a device for drying the ink sprayed onto the surface. According to the invention, the aforementioned movement and orientation means comprise: a support having three degrees of freedom in translation, which is used to position the printing assembly by enabling translational movements along horizontal, vertical and depth axes; and a wrist having two degrees of freedom in rotation, which is used to position and orient the printing assembly by enabling same to rotate in relation to two perpendicular axes. The invention also relates to a method of using said robot.

Abstract: The present invention provides a gun chamber configured for accepting an efficient gun cartridge where the efficiency of the gun cartridge is determined by determining the water weight volume of the cartridge; determining the bore diameter of the gun barrel; determining the weight of the bullet; and calculating the efficiency rating of the cartridge by multiplying the water weight volume by the bore diameter and dividing by the bullet weight. The efficiency rating is optimal between 110 and 145 when the water weight volume is determined in grains, the bore diameter is determined in thousandths of inches and the bullet weight is determined in grains. One such 50 caliber gun cartridge has a casing diameter of approximately 0.688 inches and neck portion which accepts a bullet having a bore diameter of approximately 0.510 inches. The case has a length ranging from 1.90 inches to 2.5 inches measured from the primer to the mouth of the neck.
