Abstract: A number of systems and methods described here are directed to controlling, activating, and otherwise interacting with the phrenic nerve of a patient while the patient is undergoing mechanical ventilation, thus interacting with the diaphragm. Some embodiments of the systems and methods described herein are configured to achieve phrenic nerve stimulation in a controlled manner so as to sufficiently adapt the breathing therapy to a variety of patients.

Abstract: The invention relates to in vitro methods for measuring the in vivo metabolism of tau in a subject.

Abstract: A system and method for a security glass system. The system includes a pane of glass and a security film adhered to the glass. A bracket has a glass coupler portion, a gap definer, and a support coupler. The glass coupler is adhered to the security film via an adhesive. The support coupler is adhered to the support via an adhesive. The result is a securement system which can withstand more blows than traditional glass.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed for providing contact management services. Contact information (e.g., phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, etc.) are collected from multiple, different sources (e.g., a mobile phone, a web server, a social media web site, SMS, an App, etc.) Contact information can also be entered in a free-form format and parsed into structured data that is associated with a contact card. A contact card stores the contact information and the source of the information. Contact cards can be aggregated into a merged contact card that includes information from the multiple, different sources, without loosing the original information. The merged contact card can be disaggregated into its constituent contact cards and used to create other contact cards. A user can associate one or more of their contact cards with a group. The group is optionally notified when the users changes its contact information.

Abstract: A method and system for marketing a consumer product is disclosed. According to the method, attitudinal information and purchase behavioral information is obtained from a plurality of consumers. For instance, consumers may be surveyed regarding their attitudes about purchasing a product category and about the amount of product contained in the product category that they purchase over a given length of time. The attitudinal data and the purchase behavioral data is then integrated together creating a plurality of consumer segments. The consumer segments are grouped together based upon commonalities. Based upon loyalty to a particular brand and a volume sales objective for the brand, increased penetration into the consumer segments may be calculated in order to meet the volume objectives. One of the consumer segments may then be targeted for marketing purposes.

Abstract: A multi-pass heat exchanger including first and second plates forming a fluid chamber therebetween having an inlet opening and an outlet opening, and a turbulizer plate having rows of fluid flow augmenting convolutions in the fluid chamber, the turbulizer plate including at least one barrier dividing the fluid chamber into first and second pass regions such that fluid flowing in the fluid chamber flows around an end of the barrier when flowing from the first pass region to the second pass regions, the turbulizer plate having portions defining a notch area therebetween for fluid to pass through when flowing in the fluid chamber around the end of the barrier from the first pass region to the second pass region.

Abstract: The instant invention is directed to a variety of networked appliances, including equipment controlled or monitored via an Ethernet connection in industrial applications. In one example embodiment of the present invention, a networked industrial-application appliance, having a processor, includes a removable modular circuit board and a memory arrangement. The removable modular circuit board includes an identity circuit memory, an external-connection port for providing communication access between the networked industrial-application appliance processor and the identity circuit memory, and electrical conductors each of which is adapted to provide a connection with the external-connection port. The memory arrangement includes a nonvolatile memory device and is adapted to store an identity profile that is particular to the networked industrial-application appliance.

Abstract: A driving simulator. The driving simulator may include a processor; a display connectable to the processor; a plurality of input devices, such as a steering wheel, a brake pedal, and an accelerator pedal, where each of the plurality of input devices is connectable to the processor; and a computer-readable medium.

Abstract: A pair of brazed sheets or plates having abutting portions through which aligned openings are formed, the opening through one sheet being larger than the opening through the other.
