Abstract: A rotor drive bar for use in a brake system, according to various embodiments, includes a drive bar portion configured to be coupled to at least one rotor of the brake system. The rotor drive bar also includes an attachment boss configured to be coupled to an attachment platform of a wheel. The attachment boss has a boss face that faces the attachment platform and at least partially defines a pocket for reducing thermal transfer from the rotor drive bar to the wheel.

Abstract: An outboard wheel half has an axis and includes an outboard wheel structure configured to receive at least a portion of a tire. The outboard wheel half also includes a structure defining an alignment hole usable to align a hubcap relative to the structure. The structure defines a pocket circumferentially aligned with the alignment hole to reduce an amount of stress at a location of the alignment hole.

Abstract: A wireless power source including a microwave receiver, a matching network, and a transducer. The microwave receiver receives a microwave signal having a carrier frequency. The matching network receives a signal having the carrier frequency and a switched frequency and removes the carrier frequency such that the matching network outputs a switched signal at the switched frequency. The transducer is configured to receive the switched signal and output a DC voltage.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for aircraft wheels and brakes systems for use in, for example, an aircraft. In this regard, a method for repair of at least one of an aircraft wheel and an aircraft brake part may comprise pre-treating a surface of the aircraft wheel and/or aircraft brake part, using an additive manufacturing repair process to apply repair material to the surface of the aircraft wheel and/or aircraft brake part, and post-treating the aircraft wheel and/or aircraft brake part resulting in the restoration of a geometric profile and/or a structural capability of the aircraft wheel and/or aircraft brake part.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a base film having a thickness from 8 to 152 microns, a 60 degree gloss value from 2 to 35, an optical density greater than or equal to 2 and a dielectric strength greater than 1400 V/mil. The base film comprises a chemically converted (partially or wholly aromatic) polyimide in an amount from 63 to 96 weight percent of the base film. The base film further comprises a pigment and a matting agent. The matting agent is present in an amount from 1.6 to 10 weight percent of the base film, has a median particle size from 1.3 to 10 microns, and has a density from 2 to 4.5 g/cc. The pigment is present in an amount from 2 to 35 weight percent of the base film. The present disclosure is also directed to coverlay films comprising the base film in combination with an adhesive layer.

Abstract: The present invention provides fully human monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to GPNMB, and uses thereof. Nucleotide sequences encoding, and amino acid sequences comprising, heavy and light chain immunoglobulin molecules, particularly sequences corresponding to contiguous heavy and light chain sequences spanning the framework regions and/or complementarity determining regions (CDRs) are provided. The present invention also provides immunoconjugates comprising anti-GPNMB antibodies and methods of using such immunoconjugates. The present invention further provides bi-specific antibodies comprising an anti-GPNMB antibody component and an anti-CD3 component, and methods of using such bispecific antibodies.
