Abstract: A method can include accessing a measurement model in memory of a downhole tool; determining an optimal parameter set using a processor of the downhole tool and the measurement model; and performing at least one measurement using at least one sensor of the downhole tool operated according to the optimal parameter set.

Abstract: Apparatus for generating a supply of air at positive pressure for the amelioration or treatment of a respiratory disorder includes a first chamber, a second chamber, at least one inlet tube structured and configured to allow ambient air to enter the first chamber, at least one flow tube structured and configured to allow air to pass from the first chamber to the second chamber, and a blower structured and configured to produce a flow of air at positive pressure. The blower is positioned in the first chamber and structured and configured to receive air from the second chamber. The blower includes a housing structured and configured to sealingly separate air flow through an interior of the housing from the first chamber. The at least one inlet tube is axially spaced from the at least one flow tube.

Abstract: According to one aspect, a method includes obtaining, at a monitoring arrangement, a first supervisory request from a first vehicle, the first supervisory request arranged to indicate that the first vehicle has identified a first potential issue. The method also includes processing, at the monitoring arrangement, the first supervisory request, wherein processing the first supervisory request includes determining whether the first potential issue is to be mitigated. When it is determined that the first potential issue is to be mitigated, information is provided from the monitoring arrangement to a control arrangement, and the control arrangement takes control of the first vehicle based on the information.

Abstract: Described herein are unstructured polypeptides lacking any discernible repeat motif. Also described herein are fusion proteins including at least one of the unstructured polypeptides and at least one binding polypeptide. Further described are methods for treating a disease in a subject in need thereof. The methods may include administering to the subject an effective amount of the fusion protein.
