  • Patent number: 11943447
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a decoding method and apparatus and an encoding method and apparatus that perform inter-prediction using a motion vector predictor. For a candidate block in a col picture, a scaled motion vector is generated based on a motion vector of the candidate block. When the scaled motion vector indicates a target block, a motion vector predictor of the target block is generated based on the motion vector of the candidate block. The motion vector predictor is used to derive the motion vector of the target block in a specific inter-prediction mode such as a merge mode and an AMVP mode.

    Abstract: Described herein are highly thermally conductive hybrid carbon fiber composites. The composites are composed of one or more alternating layers of (a) a pyrolytic graphite sheet and (b) carbon fibers impregnated with a resin. The thermal conductivity of the composites is substantially higher when compared independently to the pyrolytic graphite sheet and carbon fibers. In addition to increased thermal conductivity, the composites possess other desirable properties such as increased thermal emissivity and solar absorptivity. The enhanced properties of the composites make them suitable for use in a number of different applications where heat flow is desirable.
