Abstract: The disclosure provides tangential flow depth filtration (TFDF) systems which exhibit improved filter fluxes and process capacities and reduced fouling characteristics. The TFDF systems of the disclosure optionally utilize tubular depth filters (TDF). Methods are provided which include the passage of a non-laminar flow through at least a portion of a length of a TDF in a TFDF system.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a radio frequency (RF) device that includes a mold device die and a multilayer redistribution structure underneath the mold device die. The mold device die includes a device region with a back-end-of-line (BEOL) portion and a front-end-of-line (FEOL) portion over the BEOL portion, a thermally conductive film, and a first mold compound. The FEOL portion includes isolation sections and an active layer surrounded by the isolation sections. The thermally conductive film, which has a thermal conductivity greater than 10 W/m·K and an electrical resistivity greater than 1E5 Ohm-cm, resides between the active layer and the first mold compound. Herein, silicon crystal does not exist between the first mold compound and the active layer. The multilayer redistribution structure includes a number of bump structures, which are at a bottom of the multilayer redistribution structure and electrically coupled to the FEOL portion of the mold device die.

Abstract: A powder container (10) comprising a pressure vessel (12) for containing a quantity of powder (14) and a quantity of pressurised gas (32), an outlet through which, in use, the powder (14) can flow out of the pressure vessel (12), and an outlet valve (24) for selectively opening and closing the outlet, wherein the container (10) further comprises a data sensing and/or logging means (56, 58, 60, 62, 64) adapted to monitor and/or log various parameters of the powder (14) and/or the pressurised gas (32) and further comprising a control unit (54) adapted record and log the sensor readings either continuously, or at intervals, the control unit (54) comprising a communications module adapted to relay sensor readings, or log files, to a remote monitoring station.

Abstract: A sealing element for positioning radially outwardly of aerofoil blades of a gas turbine engine is provided. A radially inner surface region of the sealing element includes a seal structure having one or more inwardly projecting walls formed by additive layer, powder fed, laser weld deposition. The walls form a plurality of curved profile shapes which are arranged in a repeating pattern across the radially inner surface region. None of the walls intersects with any other wall. The curved profile shapes have no radii of curvature less than 0.5 mm.
