Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method for site characterization of offshore wind farms may include receiving, via at least one processor, a dataset comprising one or more cone penetrative test (CPT) properties associated with an area of interest (AOI) that corresponds to a seafloor. The method may also include generating, via the at least one processor, a geological process model comprising one or more rock layers and sediment information across the AOI based on one or more forward stratigraphic modeling techniques and geological information associated with the AOI. The method may also include applying, via the at least one processor, a machine learning algorithm to the geological process model to generate a predictive Earth model indicative of one or more site characteristics properties associated with a volume across the AOI.

Abstract: A guide element is constructed for arrangement on a device for the penetrating extension of a blind hole created in hard tissue, in particular in the jawbone, wherein the device includes a hollow body that forms a pressure chamber and that has a distal working opening and an inlet opening opposite the working opening.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for penetratingly extending a blind hole into a hard tissue, particularly a jawbone. The device is characterized in that it comprises a tubular body (1) having a distal working opening (2) and an inlet (3) opposite the working opening (2), said inlet being closed by a sealing element (4) that is penetrated by a shaft (5) of a working tool, for example a milling tool (5, 6), and allows at least a feed motion, a drive motion and a steering motion of the working tool (5, 6), the tubular body (1) being provided with a connection (8) for applying an internal pressure.

Abstract: A device for the perforating extension of a blind bore introduced into a jawbone, includes a hollow body defining a hollow space and having a distal working opening and an inlet opening opposite the working opening, and being sealingly insertable into the blind bore, a working tool connected with the hollow body so as to form a common unit with the hollow body, a shaft arranged on the working tool and having a distal tool head for working on the jawbone, said shaft being insertable into the hollow space through the inlet opening, said distal tool head being at least partially guidable through the working opening for working on the jawbone, a connection fluidly connected to the hollow body for establishing an internal pressure in the hollow, and an adjustment mechanism provided in or on the device for axial movement or linear forward feed of the shaft in the hollow space along a longitudinal axis of the shaft and the hollow space

Abstract: A coupling arrangement for a drive train of a motor vehicle includes at least one clutch which is arranged on a rotating shaft in order to couple the rotating shaft optionally with a drive element of the drive train, in which to couple the rotating shaft with the drive element, a first clutch part and a second clutch part can be brought into a form-fit engagement with each other by moving one of the clutch parts along the axis of the rotating shaft. To prevent jerks and vibrations in the drive train, a hydraulic damping device is provided which acts between the first clutch part and the second clutch part.

Abstract: A surgical instrument for use in a sinus lift includes a substantially cylindrical sleeve which is sealingly insertable into a bore of a jawbone. The sleeve has a lumen and is formed with an inlet channel and an outlet port which is in fluid communication with the lumen. A vibration unit is operatively connected to the instrument for transmitting vibrations into the lumen.

Abstract: A guide element is constructed for arrangement on a device for the penetrating extension of a blind hole created in hard tissue, in particular in the jawbone, wherein the device includes a hollow body that forms a pressure chamber and that has a distal working opening and an inlet opening opposite the working opening. The guide element can be inserted into the inlet opening with a tight fit and the inlet opening can be closed by the guide element, the guide element has a through-hole, through which a shaft of a working tool, for example, of a milling tool, can be guided and inserted into the hollow body, and the guide element has a connection for a working medium for applying an internal pressure in the pressure chamber or in the hollow body.

Abstract: A chassis frame crossbeam assembly for a four wheel drive motor vehicle comprising a lower crossmember and an upper bridge member fixed thereon. The crossmember intermediate portion being downwardly depressed formed with a thinned valley section. The bridge member having a hollow-section including an intermediate bifurcated portion in the form of fore and aft upwardly arched branch sections with end extensions welded on either side of the crossmember thinned valley section. The vertically opposed bridge member branch sections and crossmember depression combine to define a through passage for a longitudinal drive shaft for driving the rear wheels. The bridge member branch sections define a free open channel therebetween adapted to receive a transverse tube portion of the steering assembly therethrough arranged with its principal axis orthogonal to the principal axis of the subjacent longitudinal drive shaft.
