Patent number: 10801361Abstract: The turbine assembly includes a shaft, a plurality of rotor disks, a plurality of blades, and at least one cutting mechanisms. The rotor disks are spaced axially along, and coupled to, the shaft and include a radially outer portion. The blades are spaced circumferentially around the radially outer portion. The cutting mechanisms are configured to cut the blades from the rotor disk during a disk over speed condition.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2016Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANYInventors: Nagamohan Govinahalli Prabhakar, Steven Andrew Strang, Charles Stanley Orkiszewski, Subramanya Shankar, Nitesh Jain, Michael Riehle

Patent number: 9937140Abstract: The present disclosure includes a formulation of branched chain amino acids and arginine for treatment of diseases for which the pathological mechanism includes autophagy. The formulation includes defined ratios of the branched chain amino acids Isoleucine, Leucine, and Valine along with Arginine. These disease indications include congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, and ischemia reperfusion injury. Diseases of other organs that involve autophagy are also disclosed. Additionally, methods of using the disclosed formulation to treat these disease indications are provided. The disclosure also describes a kit that includes a lyophilized form of the formulation, a solvent for reconstitution, and instructions directing reconstitution.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2014Date of Patent: April 10, 2018Assignee: University of Utah Research FoundationInventors: Evan Dale Abel, Christian Michael Riehle
