  • Patent number: 12234172
    Abstract: A mobile processing system is disclosed for the removal of radioactive contaminants from nuclear process wastewater. The system is fully scalable, modular, and portable allowing the system to be fully customizable according to site-specific remediation requirements. It is designed to be both transported and operated from standard sized intermodal containers or custom designed enclosures for increased mobility between sites and on-site, further increasing the speed and ease with which the system may be deployed. Additionally, the system is completely modular wherein the various modules perform different forms or stages of wastewater remediation and may be connected in parallel and/or in series. Depending on the needs of the site, one or more different processes may be used. In some embodiments, one or more of the same modules may be used in the same operation.

    Abstract: A golf club head includes a club body including a crown, a sole, a skirt disposed between and connecting the crown and the sole and a face portion connected to a front end of the club body. The face portion includes a geometric center defining the origin of a coordinate system when the golf club head is ideally positioned, the coordinate system including an x-axis being tangent to the face portion at the origin and parallel to a ground plane, a y-axis intersecting the origin being parallel to the ground plane and orthogonal to the x-axis, and a z-axis intersecting the origin being orthogonal to both the x-axis and the y-axis. The golf club head defines a center of gravity CG, the CG being a distance CGY from the origin as measured along the y-axis and a distance CGZ from the origin as measured along the z-axis.

  • Publication number: 20250044299
    Abstract: The invention provides a method of identifying whether a protein target and a compound of interest bind to one another, by exposing the protein target to the compound of interest for a time sufficient to allow binding of the compound of interest to the protein target, treating with a chemical denaturant and assaying the products of the denaturing mixture to determine the proportion of the protein target in its folded state and/or the proportion of the protein target in its denatured state. Suitably, the method is conducted at a substantially constant temperature. A change in the proportion of the protein target in its folded state as compared to a suitable control indicates that the protein target and compound of interest bind to one another.

  • Patent number: 12164617
    Abstract: Some implementations provide input-triggered user verification. This may involve trigging a user verification (e.g., capture of an image, sound, fingerprint, etc.) to verify a user's identity based on input (e.g., typing) received ad the device. Triggering the user-verification based on receiving input may help ensure that the image, sound, fingerprint, etc. is captured at a time when the user is close to the device, touching the finger-print sensor, and/or in view of the camera during the capturing. Some implementations provide user verification based on a user-identification of a previously selected image. This may involve using an inmate-selected picture or other image to recover a forgotten alphanumeric reference. Some implementations of the invention disclosed herein provide user verification based on a computer-vision identification of a wearable identification tag. This may involve using an image of the user's identification tag worn on the user's wrist to verify the user's identity.

  • Publication number: 20240383238
    Abstract: An acoustic blanket absorbs acoustic energy and reduces noise in a launch vehicle. The acoustic blanket may be overlaid on a wall of a payload fairing of the launch vehicle. Materials and construction of the acoustic blanket allow for a relatively thin and light sound barrier. The acoustic blanket may comprise vertically-lapped polyester that is overlaid with a lightweight melamine foam. This combination of materials creates an acoustic impedance mismatch between layers that leads to absorption of acoustic energy across a relatively broad range of frequency bands. The acoustic blanket has a particular heat seal pattern that helps absorb noise while allowing the acoustic blanket to be relatively soft and flexible, which is useful for attaching the acoustic blanket to a curved wall of a fairing or other launch vehicle shapes. The acoustic blanket utilizes micro-perforations on multiple sides to allow for movement of air/venting while maintaining the bulk materials inside.

  • Publication number: 20240325728
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, devices, and methods for peripheral nerve stimulation. A wearable neuromodulation (e.g., neurostimulation) device can accomplish target nerve stimulation using circumferential electrode configuration, in-line electrode configuration, or concentric electrode configuration. In some embodiments, the electrodes may obtain a self-wetting capability by comprising an antistatic material, which may bloom to the surface of the electrode and serve as a layer of conductive lubricant to improve electrical conductivity between the electrode and skin. In some embodiments, the device may deliver stimulation through the electrodes to induce sweat and the induced sweat may serve as a wetting agent to improve electrical conductivity. In some embodiments, reservoirs capture a user's sweat or hold other wetting agents filled by the user, and the captured sweat and/or other wetting agents may be delivered to the area between the electrode and skin by using capillary action, osmosis, or micropump.
