Patent number: 11555236Abstract: An article formed of a metal alloy is covered at least partially with a metal hydride and a shell metal to form an assembly. Load is applied to the assembly and the assembly is heated. The shell metal deforms around the article and the metal hydride and forms a gas proof seal. The metal hydride thermally decomposes to form hydrogen gas. At least a portion of the hydrogen gas dissociates and moves as monoatomic hydrogen into the article. The metal alloy can be a zirconium metal alloy, the metal hydride can be a zirconium metal hydride, and the shell metal can be substantially copper.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2018Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: Atomic Energy of Canada Limited / Énergie Atomique du Canada LimitéeInventors: Glenn Aldon McRae, Christopher Edward Coleman, Curtis John St. Louis, Scott Thomas Langille, James Leigh McLean Corrigall, Heidi Marie Nordin, Sean Michael Kevin Hanlon, Scott Anthony Douglas Read, Kevin William McCaugherty

Publication number: 20220103883Abstract: Techniques for broadcast in-home streaming are described. In some embodiments, the method is performed at a gateway device. The gateway device demultiplexes a broadcast stream to a plurality of streams, including a first stream and a second stream and anchors a first presentation time range of a first segment based on a random access point in the first stream and a first frame in the second stream. The gateway device also identifies one or more frames in the first stream based on presentation timestamps and decoding timestamps of a last frame in the first presentation time range and a first frame in a second presentation time range. The gateway device further captures frames from the second stream within the first presentation time range and generates the first segment having the first presentation time range, including the random access point, the one or more frames, the first frame, and the frames.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2020Publication date: March 31, 2022Inventors: James Leigh CUNNINGHAM, Stephen Paul ISAAC, Richard Andrew MORRELL
