Abstract: A method for locating buried utilities in a utility locator is disclosed. The method may include receiving, at an antenna array for receiving magnetic field signals, a plurality of magnetic field signals at predefined signal frequencies in a predefined frequency suite, generating, in a receiver coupled to an output of the antenna array, a first receiver output signal, generating, in a processing element coupled to the receiver, a first set of data associated with the two or more signal components, and storing, in a non-transitory memory of the locator, the first set of data.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine article includes a silicon-containing ceramic wall that has an external combustion gaspath side and an internal side that borders a cooling air cavity. The external combustion gaspath side has an associated combustion gas flow direction there along. An array of cooling holes extends through the silicon-containing ceramic wall and connects the internal side with the external combustion gaspath side. The cooling holes are oriented to discharge cooling air to the external gaspath side in a direction counter to the combustion gas flow direction.

Abstract: A flexible electrochromic device is disclosed, the device including a flexible substrate with at least one electrically conductive surface, and an electrochromic layer comprising particles of water-insoluble metal ferrocyanide with an average particle size less than about one micron, and polymer, the electrochromic layer deposited on a conductive surface of the flexible substrate, wherein the device is capable of being deformed and returned to “flatness” in an undamaged state.

Abstract: A flexible electrochromic device is disclosed, the device including a flexible substrate with at least one electrically conductive surface, and an adhesive ion-conducting layer including a) a polymer binder selected from the group of polyvinylpyrrolidone and copolymers of vinylpyrrolidone, and b) a source of mobile cations, e.g., alkali metal salts, acids, polyelectrolytes and polyacids, wherein the device is capable of being deformed and returned to “flatness” in an undamaged state.

Abstract: This invention provides a laser trimming method for tuning the frequency of a spiral resonator, and for improving the characteristics of a high temperature superconductor filter comprised of high temperature superconductor spiral resonators, by tuning the individual high temperature superconductor spiral resonators. This invention also provides a method for tuning the resonance frequency of a high temperature superconductor planar coil. This invention also provides a laser ablation process for creating high temperature superconductor circuit elements.

Abstract: An articulated upper extremity splint for immobilizing and supporting an injured upper extremity. The splint includes a frame. The frame includes a proximal support section and a distal support section. Interconnecting the confronting ends of the proximal support section and the distal support section is a connector. The connector provides multi-directional movement for the proximal support section and the distal support section, respectively. The proximal support section and the distal support section include respective extensible support rods. The support rods are telescopically received by respective tubes of the proximal support section and the distal support section. The rods are releasably secured to the associate tubes for adjusting, respectively, the length of the proximal support section and the distal support section.

Abstract: A method of selectively delivering radiation homogeneously to lymphoid and marrow tissues in vivo including the step of administering an effective dose of a radiolabeled immunological binding partner of a T-200 antigen to a patient is disclosed. Also disclosed are immunological binding partners and compositions based thereon for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A method for inhibiting the formation of blisters during the firing of intermediate layers of fired multilayer electronic components comprising the sequential steps of:(1) applying to a substrate a first and second layer of finely divided particles of dielectric solids and glass dispersed in organic medium; and(2) firing the layers to effect volatilization of the organic medium therefrom, liquid phase sintering of the glass components and densification of both layers, the softening point of the glass, the particle size of the glass and the ratio of glass to dielectric solids in both layers being adjusted in such manner that when the layers are fired, the first layer is porous and the second layer is nonporous.
