Abstract: A moveable head of a computer numerically controlled machine may deliver electromagnetic energy sufficient to cause a first change in a material at least partially contained within an interior space of the CNC machine. A feature of the material may be imaged using at least one camera present inside the interior space to update a position of the material, and the moveable head may be aligned to deliver electromagnetic energy sufficient to cause a second change in the material such that the second change is positioned on the material consistent with the first change and with an intended final appearance of the material. Methods, systems, and article of manufacture are described.

Abstract: Provided herein are adeno-associated virus (AAV) compositions that can restore phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene function in cell. Also provided are methods of use of the AAV compositions, and packaging systems for making the AAV compositions.

Abstract: A machine comprising a rotor having: an inner member; an outer member encircling the inner member; and a groove in one of the inner member and the outer member. The groove has a first side wall, a second side wall and a base. A split ring seal is accommodated in the groove and contacts a surface of the other of the inner member and the outer member The first side wall has a plurality of open radial first channels and the second side wall has a plurality of open radial second channels.

Abstract: A system and method for simulating the natural breastfeeding process both through flow rate and through nipple shape is disclosed. The system provides bottles designed after a woman's own breast, rather than a “one-size fits many” generic bottle sold in stores. The system accurately represents the shape of mother's unique nipple types, and use fluid dynamics analysis to match the flow characteristics of bottle nipples to that of actual lactation averages, incorporating dynamic infant suckling pressures. This results in a threaded nipple attachment which provides an affordable way to closely replicate a mother's nipple in terms of shape and flow, such that a nursing baby is not confused by the difference between the two. This in turn increases latching, both within situations where the mother is asserting strictly natural milk, but also where she is sometimes nursing, and sometimes using baby-formula from a bottle.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a rotor that that has a seal surface, a shaft that has an annular seal channel that opens to the seal surface, and a seal disposed in the annular seal channel for sealing against the seal surface. The seal is made of a composite having carbon fibers disposed in a carbon matrix.

Abstract: A process of 3D scanning lactating women's breasts to generate an AutoCAD model of the maternal nipple is disclosed. The 3D scanning and generation of a plurality of maternal nipple shapes for creation of breastfeeding accessories and molds is intended to closely mimic a specific mother's unique nipple shape, which can vary widely from one woman to another. The embodiments eliminate nipple confusion in infants being introduced to a bottle nipple and pacifier, in order to promote prolonged breastfeeding. Mimicking a mother's unique nipple shape helps create accessories that better fit a mother's unique nipple size and shape and decrease pain (i.e. pump flange and nipple shield).
