Abstract: Smile treatment planning systems and methods are described herein. One method for adjusting an image of a smile may generally comprise receiving a three-dimensional (3D) digital model of a dental arch of a patient, receiving a digital facial image of the patient which includes an image of one or more teeth of the patient when smiling, registering the 3D digital model to the one or more teeth of the patient from the digital facial image, correcting the 3D digital model for scale and distortion to create a corrected 3D digital model, and overlaying the corrected 3D digital model onto the digital facial image.

Abstract: A rocket engine configured to run on a liquid fuel and liquid hydrogen peroxide is started by impinging high pressure streams of a fuel and liquid H2O2 into a combustion chamber under pressure and temperature conditions sufficient to decompose the liquid H2O2 into hot water stream and oxidizer and achieve ignition.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are portable cribs comprising a frame, fabric, and feet. The portable cribs described herein are easily collapsible, transportable, and deployable. In some embodiments, to deploy a collapsed, portable crib, fabric is coupled to the feet, the feet are coupled to the frame, and the fabric is pulled up and over the frame and secured to the frame. Portable cribs according the present disclosure may also include a mattress that may be coupled with the fabric at the bottom of a deployed crib. Also disclosed herein are portable crib systems comprising a portable crib and an accessory structure configured to be removably attached to the top of the portable crib. Accessory structures disclosed herein are collapsible and, thus, portable. Portable crib systems disclosed herein may also include accessories configured to attach to the system.

Abstract: Interfaces for positive pressure therapy having various vent designs are disclosed herein. The interfaces include a bias flow vent with design geometries that help reduce and/or minimize draft and noise levels of the fluids exiting the vents. Some of the vent designs include particular vent hole geometries, plenum spaces, diffusers and fibrous media.

Abstract: The invention provides compositions including a fusion polypeptide and methods for making a fusion polypeptide that includes a COF1/CRBN-binding polypeptide, COF2/CRBN-binding polypeptide, or COF3/CRBN-binding polypeptide and a heterologous polypeptide of interest.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for initiating startup of a rocket engine configured to run on a liquid fuel and liquid hydrogen peroxide, including the steps of: initially decomposing the liquid hydrogen peroxide by passing the liquid hydrogen peroxide through a catalyst bed; passing decomposition products from the catalyst bed to a reaction chamber of the rocket engine and mixing the decomposition products with the liquid fuel to initiate detonation. Once detonation is initiated, the liquid H2O2 and liquid fuel are passed directly to a reaction chamber of the rocket, bypassing the catalyst bed. A rocket system includes a rocket engine having an initial ignition circuit having a catalyst bed sized to support decomposition of liquid H2O2 for initial reaction with the liquid fuel. The rocket engine, upon initial ignition, is configured to run on liquid fuel and liquid H2O2 without first passing the liquid H2O2 through the catalyst bed.
