Abstract: A system or method for determining a satellite observation for a virtual reference station can include: determining a virtual reference station location, receiving a set of satellite observations at a reference station located at a reference station location, determining a first GNSS correction for the virtual reference station location and a second GNSS correction for the reference station location, and determining the satellite observation for the virtual reference station by combining the set of satellite observations, the first GNSS correction, and the second GNSS correction.

The busbar connector includes contact terminals which engage with busbars for distributing power. The busbar connector can include a signal housing having signal contact terminals for connection to a signal component of the busbar assembly.

Abstract: An example extrusion blow molding (EBM) method includes extruding first and second colors of plastic to form a parison that includes an inner layer of the first color of plastic, and an outer layer of the second color of plastic. The parison is placed in a mold, the mold is closed, and the parison is inflated to create a blow molded structure. A portion of an interior of the blow molded structure is formed of the first color of plastic, and a portion of an exterior of the blow molded structure is formed of a blend of the first color of plastic and the second color of plastic.

Abstract: There are described novel compounds of formula I: (I) in which, in which A1, A2, A3, A4, R1 and R2 are each as herein defined, for use in the treatment or alleviation of an RAR mediated condition; and methods related thereto.

Abstract: Apparatus for delivering brachytherapy to a target tissue region includes an elongate body including a proximal end, a distal end sized for introduction into a tissue tract and carrying a plurality of elongate members including pathways for receiving a source of radiation. The elongate members are movable between collapsed and expanded configurations. During use, a tract is created through tissue, and the elongate body carrying the elongate members is advanced through the tract into a target location with the elongate members in the collapsed configuration. The elongate members are directed to the expanded configuration at the target location, and radiation is delivered to treat tissue at the target location, e.g., by introducing one or more radiation sources along the pathways.

Abstract: A flange flush tool includes an outer tube having a first end and a second end, the first end configured to engage the flange, and a shield tube within the outer tube. A channel is defined between an outer surface of the shield tube and an inner surface of the outer tube. The shield tube is configured to move longitudinally within the outer tube.

Abstract: A system and method for determining a GNSS receiver position includes receiving a first and a second set of satellite observations; determining a first and second ambiguity set associated with a first and second transformation respectively; determining cross-validated ambiguities between the first and second ambiguity sets; and determining the GNSS receiver position based on at least one of the first or second ambiguity sets.

Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods are provided for localizing lesions within a patient's body, e.g., within a breast. The system may include one or more markers implantable within or around the target tissue region, and a probe for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic signals to detect the one or more markers. During use, the marker(s) are into a target tissue region, and the probe is placed against the patient's skin to detect and localize the marker(s). A tissue specimen, including the lesion and the marker(s), is then removed from the target tissue region based at least in part on the localization information from the probe.

Abstract: A system and method for determining a mobile receiver position includes receiving a first and a second set of satellite observations; determining a first and second fixed ambiguity set associated with a first and second transformation respectively; determining cross-validated ambiguities between the first and second fixed ambiguity sets; and determining the mobile receiver position based on at least one of the first or second fixed ambiguity sets.

Abstract: A machine tool is provided with a toolsetting probe mounted on a bed or table, and a workpiece-sensing probe which can be mounted in a movable spindle. Both probes are calibrated by using them to make measurements against each other. The arbitrary length of the workpiece-sensing probe is used to calibrate the toolsetting probe, rather than using a pre-calibrated artefact of known length mounted in the spindle. A stylus disc of the toolsetting probe has a pre-calibrated size or dimension, and the workpiece-sensing probe is calibrated with respect to that. This obviates the need for skilful manual calibration procedures using pre-calibrated artefacts and manual measurement tools.
