Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a door seal system for top-hanging sliding doors. In some implementations, two angled mating surfaces are used, one angled surface on a fixed frame and one reversed angled surface on the slideable door panel. The slideable door panel slides directly parallel to the fixed door frame. A mating seal surface is created that is only in frictional contact for a small portion of the linear slide distance of the door panel. In some implementations, rather than placing two opposing angled seal surfaces, the sealing system has one angled surface on the fixed door frame. In such implementations, the sliding door panel is adjusted to be in a reverse angled orientation relative to the angled surface of the fixed door frame. Seal designs for the rear vertical edge of the slideable door panel are also provided herein.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a drop seal assembly which is concealed within an opening in the bottom of a sliding door panel of a top-hanging sliding door. The drop seal assembly may include bottom guide which defines a downward facing elongated slot or track which receives a sill guide therein. The drop seal assembly also includes a drop down acoustic seal which automatically drops down to contact the floor surface below the door panel when the door panel is moved from an open position into a closed position. The distance that the seal drops down upon closing of the door panel may be selectively adjustable to accommodate variances in the air gap between the door bottom and the floor surface due to particular installation conditions. A concealed magnetic bottom seal activator may be used to provide self-adjusting activation of the door bottom seal assembly using two opposing magnets.

Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer-readable recording medium track the number of times a device loses lock on a first channel. Under a condition that the device loses lock or regains lock on the first channel a predetermined number of times over a time period, the electronic device, method, and computer-readable recording medium abandon the first channel and reinitialize to select a second channel.

Abstract: Systems and methods to couple electrical contacts of a header of a medical device to respective feedthrough pins of a connector block of a medical device housing using a preformed wire are disclosed. The preformed wire can include a proximate portion comprising a number of turns shaped to engage a feedthrough pin. The number of turns of the preformed wire, once engaged with the feedthrough pin, can physically separate a major portion of the preformed wire from the connector block and the housing. The major portion of the preformed wire can be shaped to route a distal portion of the preformed wire to a first electrical contact of the header when the proximate portion of the preformed wire engages the feedthrough pin.

Abstract: An execution unit circuit for use in a processor core provides efficient use of area and energy by reducing the per-entry storage requirement of a load-store unit issue queue. The execution unit circuit includes a recirculation queue that stores the effective address of the load and store operations and the values to be stored by the store operations. A queue control logic controls the recirculation queue and issue queue so that that after the effective address of a load or store operation has been computed, the effective address of the load operation or the store operation is written to the recirculation queue and the operation is removed from the issue queue, so that address operands and other values that were in the issue queue entry no longer require storage. When a load or store operation is rejected by the cache unit, it is subsequently reissued from the recirculation queue.

The electromechanical instrument is configured to be detachably coupled to the surgical robotic arm. The electromechanical instrument includes a shaft having a proximal end and a distal end having an end effector. The instrument drive unit includes a motor configured to actuate the end effector. The coupling shaft defines a longitudinal axis and is configured to be coupled between the instrument drive unit and the surgical robotic arm such that the instrument drive unit is rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the coupling shaft relative to the surgical robotic arm or the electromechanical instrument.

Abstract: Immunogenic potential of a virus-like particle (VLP) for use in developing a vaccine is predicted by comparing order parameters of the VLP and a target virus. The method may include determining a numerical value of an order parameter and relative composition of viral coat proteins of a target virion (virus). A numerical value of an order parameter and relative composition of the surface proteins of a VLP is also determined. The numerical value of the order parameter and relative composition of the viral coat proteins of the target virion (virus) are compared to the numerical value of the order parameter and relative composition of the VLP to determine if the VLP satisfies pre-defined matching criteria indicative of high immunogenic potential and corresponding vaccine efficacy.

Abstract: Synchronous content sharing of media assets via an object data model propagated through a star network or a mesh network. Each user device updates a local object data model including information on the status of the media asset delivery, to achieve synchronization with the source data. Updates to the local object data model may be the result of direct connection between a user device and an application server via a network, or the result of indirect connections through peers in mesh networks, where the local object data model is shared through hops between peers in the mesh network if the direct connection is unavailable.
