Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer readable media for modeling thermal effects within a multi-laser device. For example, systems described herein may include a plurality of laser devices that output energy streams having corresponding operating windows. One or more systems described herein may include a set of accumulators for tracking quantities of energy samples within operating windows and populating a queue representative of the tracked quantities. One or more systems described herein may additionally include filters and a summing module for determining temperature values for operating windows and synchronizing the temperature values with one another to determine an accurate system temperature for the multi-laser device. The features described herein facilitate synchronization of data for corresponding operating windows to provide an accurate determination of system temperature based on a combination of self-heating and crosstalk effects between multiple laser devices.

Abstract: Assays, kits, and methods that target and/or detect the presence of bovine respiratory complex (BRD)-associated pathogens in a sample. These assays, kits and methods can be portable and capable of providing fast (within 45 minutes) and accurate (at least 96%) results in the field, eliminating the need for a laboratory and other complex equipment.

Abstract: A publisher is configured to receive a plurality of inputs such as audio, imagery, text, responses to questionnaires, and the like. The publisher is also operable to access a registry having pre-existing information and content. A user may submit inputs, and may further make selections relating to how the inputs will be processed by the publisher. The publisher is operable to process the inputs in accordance with the user's selections to produce any of a variety of outputs. Outputs of the publisher may include books, sound recordings, newspapers, web pages, movies, prayer cards, collages/montages, and the like. The publisher is also operable to automatically generate a biographical text about a deceased friend or relative of the user, based on inputs and selections provided by the user. The publisher may also provide voice-overs for movies automatically generated using image input, audio input, and selections provided by the user.

Abstract: A resonance testing apparatus has a plurality of arms for supporting a workpiece. At least one of said arms incorporates an articulation assembly having: a strut, a joint element which is movable in response to movement of the strut, and a clamp arrangement for clamping the joint element. The assembly has a first condition in which the joint element is movable and a second condition in which the clamp arrangement acts on the joint element to damp or restrict movement of the strut. The assembly includes a seating for the joint element, and a biasing arrangement for the seating. The assembly has a first condition in which the joint element is arranged on the seating and is movable on the seating and a second condition in which the biasing arrangement acts on the seating to damp or restrict movement of the joint element on the seating.
