Abstract: An insulation pad includes a binderless pack of glass fibers and an envelope around the binderless pack of glass fibers. The glass fibers are mechanically entangled by needling such that the binderless pack has a density of from 4.5 to 5.5 pounds per cubic foot. The insulation pad is used to insulate pipes and vessels.

Abstract: Sparse arrays of transducer elements may be beneficial in providing ultrasound transducer probes with a wide total aperture while containing a manageable number of transducer elements. Sparse arrays made with bulk piezoelectric materials or with arrays of micro-elements can be effectively with ping-based multiple aperture ultrasound imaging techniques to perform real-time volumetric imaging.

Abstract: Systems and methods for network-based ultrasound imaging are provided, which can include a number of features. In some embodiments, an ultrasound imaging system images an object with three-dimensional unfocused pings and obtains digital sample sets from a plurality of receiver elements. A sub-set of the digital sample sets can be electronically transferred to a remote server, where the sub-set can be beamformed to produce a series of two-dimensional image frames. A video stream made up of the series of two-dimensional images frames can then be transferred from the remote server to a display device.

Abstract: Ping-based imaging systems may be used for tracking motion of hard or soft objects within an imaged medium. Motion detection and motion tracking may be performed by defining fingerprint points and tracking the position of each fingerprint point based on the echoes of multiple transmitted pings.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed are systems and methods for fabricating microchannels in metal. In an embodiments, a method includes providing a first metallic plate having a first surface with an elongated slot recessed therein, providing a second metallic plate having a second surface, interfacing the first surface of the first metallic plate with the second surface of the second metallic plate with the second surface covering the elongated slot to form a microchannel between the first metallic plate and the second metallic plate, thermal bonding the first metallic plate to the second metallic plate to form a metallic body having the microchannel extending therethrough, and infiltrating the metallic body with an infiltrant.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed are systems and methods for interfacing a metallic capillary in a microchannel of a metallic body. A method may include inserting a portion of the metallic capillary into a portion the microchannel of the metallic body, sintering the portion of the metallic capillary to the portion of the microchannel of the metallic body, disposing a sacrificial powder at least proximate to the metallic capillary and the metallic body after sintering the portion of the metallic capillary and the portion of the microchannel of the metallic body, and infiltrating at least the portion of the metallic capillary sintered to the portion of the microchannel of the metallic body with an infiltrant in the presence of the sacrificial powder disposed at least proximate to the metallic capillary and the metallic body.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for purification of RNA from a sample. The methods include obtaining a first sample including double stranded RNA in a loading buffer, loading the sample onto a ceramic hydroxyapatite column, washing the column with wash buffer, and eluting the column with an elution buffer to create an eluate.
