Abstract: A fan coil thermostat includes a controller that implements a control algorithm that includes an Auto fan speed mode. The controller is programmed to permit a user to manually select a fan speed setting using the user interface. In response, the controller initiates a timer, and automatically returns to the Auto fan speed mode once the timer expires.

Abstract: Fan coil thermostats can provide energy savings by, for example, not unnecessarily heating and/or cooling an unoccupied room or other space. Fan coil systems employing such a fan coil thermostat may be more energy efficient. A fan coil system may include a fan coil that is configured for fluid communication with a source of heated fluid and/or a source of cooled fluid, a valve that controls fluid flow through the fan coil, a fan that blows air across the fan coil and a fan coil thermostat. The fan coil thermostat may include a controller that implements a control algorithm that may include an unoccupied temperature setting. The controller may be programmed to permit a user to enter a user-chosen temperature setting. In response, the controller may initiate a timer, and may automatically return to the unoccupied temperature setting once the timer has expired.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are disclosed of multiband vehicular antenna assemblies with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) capabilities. In exemplary embodiments, a multiband antenna assembly is operable with more than two satellite navigation system frequencies (e.g., Global Positioning System (GPS), BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), the Russian Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS), etc.). For example, a multiband antenna assembly may include a first patch antenna operable with at least three different satellite navigation system frequencies, e.g., GPS, BeiDou, and GLONASS, etc. The first patch antenna may be stacked on a second patch antenna. The second patch antenna may be operable with other frequencies, such as Satellite Digital Audio Radio Services (SDARS) signals (e.g., Sirius XM, etc.). The antenna assembly may also include a coupler that couples the signals from the feed ports of the first patch antenna.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for automatically changing between heating and cooling in an HVAC system. In one example, an HVAC controller may monitor the temperature of an inside space of a building, and may switch the HVAC system to cooling when the temperature of the inside space rises above a high switch-point temperature, and may cool the inside space to at least below the high switch-point temperature. The HVAC controller may also switch the HVAC system to heating when the temperature of the inside space falls below a low switch-point temperature and may heat the inside space to at least above the low switch-point temperature. In some cases, after switching to heating or cooling, the HVAC controller may cause the HVAC system to heat or cool the inside space, respectively, to substantially the set-point temperature.

Abstract: Methods for making composite anodes, such as macroporous composite anodes, are disclosed. Embodiments of the methods may include forming a tape from a slurry including a substrate metal precursor, an anode active material, a pore-forming agent, a binder, and a solvent. A laminated structure may be prepared from the tape and sintered to produce a porous structure, such as a macroporous structure. The macroporous structure may be heated to reduce a substrate metal precursor and/or anode active material. Macroporous composite anodes formed by some embodiments of the disclosed methods comprise a porous metal and an anode active material, wherein the anode active material is both externally and internally incorporated throughout and on the surface of the macroporous structure.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and apparatus for automatically changing between heating and cooling modes of an HVAC system, sometimes using a single or common set point in both modes. In an illustrative but not limiting example, an HVAC controller may monitor the temperature of an inside space of a building, and may switch the HVAC system to a cooling mode when the temperature of the inside space rises above a high switch-point temperature, and may cool the inside space to at least below the high switch-point temperature. The HVAC controller may also switch the HVAC system to the heating mode when the temperature of the inside space falls below a low switch-point temperature and may heat the inside space to at least above the low switch-point temperature. In some cases, after switching to the heating mode, the HVAC controller may cause the HVAC system to heat the inside space to substantially the set-point temperature.

Abstract: Provided is a method for determining whether an individual is likely to be susceptible to radiation pneumonitis from radiation therapy and for developing a treatment based on the determination of susceptibility. The method involves measuring SOD and GPX activity levels. A high SOD or low GPX activity, or a combination thereof, is indicative that the individual is likely to be susceptible to radiation pneumonitis.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a stacked dielectric layer for suppressing electrostatic charge buildup. First, a substrate having metal layers thereon is provided, with a plurality of gaps formed therebetween. Next, a dielectric layer is formed by simultaneous deposition and ion-bombardment, such that the dielectric layer covers the bottom dielectric liner and fills the gaps. Finally, a top dielectric liner is formed on the dielectric layer by deposition without ion-bombardment. Furthermore, the present invention provides another method to fabricate a stacked dielectric layer by performing a plasma treatment on the dielectric layer to suppress electrostatic charge buildup. As a result, the above-mentioned methods can efficiently avoid metal extrusion issues.

Abstract: Comparators outputting offset calibration. A MOS current mode logic (MCML) circuit receives input signals and generates differential logic signals on output terminals thereof, and comprises a calibration unit coupled to the output terminals, calibrating output offsets at the output terminals according to digital calibration codes. An output stage is coupled to the differential logic signals at the output terminals of the MCML circuit to amplify the differential logic signal and generating a comparison resulting signal. By adjusting the digital calibration codes applied to the calibration unit, current on the output terminals can be adjusted, such that output offsets at the output terminals of the MCML circuit 10 can be eliminated.
