  • Publication number: 20230288162
    Abstract: An apparatus and methods are provided for a front plate having a diverging central bore for firearm sound suppressors that improves noise and flash characteristics during firing a weapon. The central bore is disposed between a back surface and a front surface of the front plate. An untapered portion of the central bore extends from the back surface to a diverging portion that opens toward the front surface. The diverging portion includes a curvature profile configured to allow for more controlled expansion of high-pressure propellant gases exiting of the suppressor through the central bore. The curvature profile provides an included angle of the central bore that decreases secondary flash events accompanying the expulsion of propellant gases accompanying a fired bullet exiting the suppressor through the central bore. The curvature profile exhibits a cross-sectional area of the central bore that is proportional to a distance along the diverging portion.

  • Publication number: 20230277568
    Abstract: Methods for treatment for patients suffering from disease or condition are contemplated as including an administration of an intravenous infusion of a pharmaceutically effective amount of psilocybin or psilocin. The intravenous infusion of psilocybin or psilocin may include an additional compound such as a benzodiazepine, preferably lorazepam, administered via a continuous intra-venous infusion. Such methods may be seen to better alleviate the symptoms of psychological conditions, neurological injuries, pain, or inflammatory condition, and may result in reduced need for other medications.

  • Publication number: 20230021170
    Abstract: An apparatus and methods are provided for a suppressor to be coupled with a muzzle end of a barrel of a firearm to reduce muzzle blast and muzzle flash. The suppressor comprises a housing having a proximal end and a distal end. A front portion within the housing comprises a series of cylindrical gas expansion chambers for attenuating the temperature and energy of propellant gases accompanying a projectile fired from the firearm. An annular gas expansion chamber surrounds the cylindrical gas expansion chambers and directs a portion of the propellant gases from a rear portion of the suppressor to peripheral vents disposed at the distal end. Lateral chambers within the rear portion deflect and rebound a portion of the propellant gases before passing them into the annular gas expansion chamber. Ledges within the annular gas expansion chamber direct the propellant gases distally through suppressor toward the peripheral vents.

  • Publication number: 20220073976
    Abstract: Cyclone Rolling Circle Amplification (CRCA) based next-generation sequencing (NGS) using a multiple primer rolling circle amplification (RCA) reaction is generated using two or more tandem primers from the same strand on different locations of library adaptor regions of double stranded enriched targeted polymerase chain reaction (PCR) library products. This process allows multiple initiation and syntheses of the RCA reaction by an enzyme on the same circular template molecule, which is beneficial since the two or more primers complement each other in generating uniform amplification of the target circle population. Also, a method for keeping DNA nanoballs (also known as rolonies) compact, or more compact, and for pre-priming rolonies before sequencing to eliminate the hybridization of a seqeuncing primer after seeding the rolonies, and a Rolonies rolling circle amplification (RCA) based next-generation sequencing (NGS) using a dual Rolonies primer approach named REPLI-Rolony.

  • Publication number: 20210318673
    Abstract: A method inspects weld quality in-situ. The method obtains a plurality of sequenced images of an in-progress welding process and generates a multi-dimensional data input based on the plurality of sequenced images and/or one or more weld process control parameters. The parameters may include: (i) shield gas flow rate, temperature, and pressure; (ii) voltage, amperage, wire feed rate and temperature (if applicable); (iii) part preheat/inter-pass temperature; and (iv) part and weld torch relative velocity). The method generates defect probability and analytics information by applying one or more computer vision techniques on the multi-dimensional data input. The analytics information includes predictive insights on quality features of the in-progress welding process. The method then generates a 3-D visualization of one or more as-welded regions, based on the analytics information, and the plurality of sequenced images.

  • Publication number: 20210095586
    Abstract: Disclosed is an oil catch can device employing a porous polymer matrix which filters and collects oil and other combustion byproducts typically found in “blow-by” gasses of an internal combustion engine. Employing a porous polymer matrix is a more effective means of filtering and collecting components of blow-by gasses due to the physical and chemical properties of the matrix. Various polymers can be used to produce the porous polymer matrix. By controlling the polymer type and particle size distribution of the particles that are sintered to create the matrix, filtration and adsorption can be maximized while maintaining a sufficient flow rate of gasses through the device.
