  • Publication number: 20250066840
    Abstract: Methods for facilitating drug discovery in various models and proposing single cell-type-specific drug candidates, and predicting cellular drug sensitivities. Predictions comprise obtaining bulk RNA sequence data, wherein bulk RNA seq data is pan-cancer cell line transcriptomic data from one or more sources; obtaining single cell RNA sequence data (scRNA-seq) from one or more sources; integrating the bulk RNA sequence data and scRNA-seq data; capturing similarities between the bulk data and the scRNA-seq data based on a shared drug response relative gene and using canonical correlation analysis; extracting one or more drug-response relevant features and selecting a pharmacogenomic subspace for accurately predicting a single-cell drug response.

  • Patent number: 12168264
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for joining two blanks made of aluminum material, using a laser source, by controlling the laser power distribution. In particular, the method comprises placing the first and second blanks for welding; laser welding the first and second blanks following a welding path and modulating a laser power distribution, wherein the welding path combines a linear movement along a welding direction and oscillating movements substantially transverse to the welding direction, wherein the oscillating movement has a frequency between 50 Hz and 1500 Hz and an amplitude ranging from 0.3 mm and 3.0 mm, and wherein the laser power distribution is dynamically controlled during the oscillating movement, and wherein said power is modulated between 0 and 100% of the maximum laser power. The present invention also related to a process of modulating said laser powder distribution.

  • Publication number: 20240217190
    Abstract: A three-dimensional orthogonal woven composite outlet guide vane and a manufacturing method are provided. Near-net-shaped manufacturing of the outlet guide vane is realized, and a vane profile-platform junction of the outlet guide vane is reinforced by designing a bifurcation of the preform. A basic structure of a three-dimensional orthogonal woven composite and a bifurcation of the vane profile-platform junction are used, so that the ultimate strength under tension, compression and bending of the outlet guide vane structure are significantly improved, and the weight of the outlet guide vane is reduced. Structural load bearing and force transmission functions of a strut are provided by the outlet guide vane while the functions of vane rectification, noise reduction and others are ensured. As a result, the weight and dimensions of an aeroengine, as well as structural complexity, are reduced by removing struts.

  • Patent number: 10773330
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided herein for measuring 3D apparatus (e.g., manual tool or tool accessory) orientation. Example implementations use an auto-nulling algorithm that incorporates a quaternion-based unscented Kalman filter. Example implementations use a miniature inertial measurement unit endowed with a tri-axis gyro and a tri-axis accelerometer. The auto-nulling algorithm serves as an in-line calibration procedure to compensate for the gyro drift, which has been verified to significantly improve the estimation accuracy in three-dimensions, especially in the heading estimation.
