Abstract: Disclosed are a composite graphite heat insulating material with improved thermal conductivity in the thickness direction and a method for manufacturing the same. The composite graphite heat insulating material according to the present invention comprises: an expanded graphite matrix which is compressed in the thickness direction; and high-density compressed and expanded graphite particles which are filled in the pores within the compressed and expanded graphite matrix and have a density of 0.1 g/cm3 or more.

Abstract: Techniques for evaluating the quality of results obtained by a search engine. In an aspect, an evaluation platform utilizes task-level formulation to increase the accuracy of search result quality evaluation. Furthermore, initial queries may be reformulated until search results are deemed to satisfy the task description. Side-by-side comparison of results from multiple search engines is further provided to enhance the sensitivity of evaluation. Alternative aspects provide for collection of behavioral signals for training a classifier to classify the quality of an evaluator's feedback, as may be applied in, e.g., a crowd-sourcing context.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a display apparatus and a housing thereof.

Abstract: A carbon nanotube-based micron scale chemical sensor or sensor array is provided that enables the remote detection of hydrogen sulfide and other chemicals in a gas stream. The sensor is suitable for use in harsh environments of high temperature and pressure such as those encountered during petrochemical exploration and recovery. Multiplex sensor devices detect two or more chemical agents simultaneously, or they can detect conditions such as pressure, salinity, humidity, pH, or scale-forming ions. Incorporation of read out electronics and an RF signal generator into the sensor device enables it to communicate to a relay station or receiver for 3D mapping or other analysis. Methods are also provided for fabricating the chemical sensor device and using the device for detection.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a custom foot orthotic for a patient is described. The method includes collecting dynamic pressure data of a plantar surface of the foot of the patient at multiple time frames during a gait cycle of the patient, determining the dimensions of the patient's foot from the dynamic pressure data, scaling a three dimensional model of a foot orthotic along the x and y axes to form a scaled three dimensional model which approximates the dimensions of the patient's foot and adjusting the height of the scaled model along the z-axis in one or more regions based on the dynamic pressure data to form a three-dimensional model of the custom foot orthotic. A method is also provided which includes creating a two-dimensional model of a custom foot orthotic from dynamic pressure data and extruding the two-dimensional model in one or more regions based on the dynamic pressure data to form a three-dimensional model of the custom foot orthotic. The orthotic can be manufactured using 3D printing.

Abstract: The instant invention provides compounds of formula I which are JAK inhibitors, and as such are useful for the treatment of JAK-mediated diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, COPD and cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a display device and a backlight assembly thereof. The backlight assembly according to an aspect of the present invention includes: a circuit board on which a circuitry member for controlling the display device is mounted; a cover bottom which covers the rear surface of the display device, in which an insertion hole corresponding to the circuit board is punched on the bottom thereof, and in which the circuit board is installed to be accommodated in the interior of the insertion hole; a first coupling part coupled to the circuit board; and a second coupling part coupled to the cover bottom. The backlight assembly comprises a bracket that fixes the circuit board to the cover bottom.

Abstract: Provided is a smart shopping method using a user terminal. Use information of various benefit means available to a user may be previously checked, set, and stored, and when making a payment, a transaction serial number may be presented to an affiliated store terminal, thereby enabling all benefit means to be easily applied. Also, since a payment serial number is presented along with a transaction serial number, a mobile payment to which a benefit means is applied may be performed by presenting only a user terminal, thereby enabling a user of the user terminal to shop quickly and conveniently.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to functional polyurethane foams, and in particular, to functional polyurethane foams including a reaction product of a resin premix and an isocyanate component, wherein the resin premix includes a polyol component and a foaming agent, and the isocyanate component includes monomeric methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MMDI) in 4 to 70% by weight, carbodiimide methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (CMDI) in 5 to 70% by weight and polymeric methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (PMDI) in 10 to 80% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the isocyanate component. The functional polyurethane foams of the present disclosure are capable of being used for vehicle seats and minimizing vibration transmissibility by absorbing a considerable portion of vibrations that occur while driving.
