20140244518 | AMBIENT CONDITIONS MONITORING SYSTEM FOR MACHINERY - A method for monitoring machines is provided. According to the method, a computer server determines a location of at least one machine. The complier server transmits a request to an external source for ambient conditions associated with the location of the at least one machine. The computer server receives a response indicative of the ambient conditions associated with the location of the at least one machine. In addition, the computer server evaluates operation of the at least one machine based in part on the received ambient conditions. | 08-28-2014 |

20140163554 | COMPLETELY RESORBABLE CONNECTIVE TISSUE DISTRACTION DEVICES AND TECHNIQUES - A method for early stabilizing of distracted connective tissue. A distraction site is at least partially covered with biodegradable, bioerodible or bioresorbable materials before a distraction procedure takes place. Distraction is performed on a connective tissue at the distraction site. The distracted connective tissue is stabilized using the biodegradable, bioerodible or bioresorbable materials. | 06-12-2014 |

20120209271 | COMPLETELY RESORBABLE CONNECTIVE TISSUE DISTRACTION DEVICES AND TECHNIQUES - A device for early stabilizing of distracted tissue that includes a first implant, a second implant, a sliding expansion mechanism and a stabilizer. The first implant is capable of being attached to a first tissue region. The second implant is capable of being attached to a second tissue region. The sliding expansion mechanism engages the first implant and the second implant for distracting the first implant away from the second implant to create a distraction space for formation of the distracted tissue. The stabilizer rigidly fixes the first implant and the second implant after disengagement of the sliding expansion mechanism to rigidly stabilize the distracted tissue. The stabilizer includes in whole or in part a biodegradable, bioerodible or bioresorbable material. | 08-16-2012 |

20150121974 | Locking Mechanisms and Toolboxes Including Locking Mechanisms - Locking mechanisms and toolboxes including locking mechanisms are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a locking mechanism includes a frame including an opening, a lid, a latch coupled to the lid, the latch including a latching post and a flange, and a locking device including a draw mechanism coupled to the tab, where the draw mechanism is translatable with respect to the frame, the draw mechanism including a slot that includes a narrow end and a wide end positioned opposite the narrow end, where the flange has a width that is greater than a width of the narrow end of the slot of the draw mechanism, and where the draw mechanism is repositionable between a latched position in which the narrow end is axially aligned with the latching post of the latch and an unlatched position, in which the wide end is axially aligned with the latching post of the latch. | 05-07-2015 |

20090005894 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ENHANCING THE YIELD IN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING - Roughly described, a manufacturing process is enhanced by using TCAD and TCAD-derived models. A TCAD simulation model of the process is developed, which predicts, in dependence upon a plurality of process input parameters, a value for a performance parameter of a product to be manufactured using the process. Estimated, predicted or desired values for a calculated subset of the parameters (including either process input parameters or product performance parameters or both), are determined in dependence upon the process model, and further in dependence upon actual, estimated or desired values for a different subset of the parameters (again either process input parameters or product performance parameters or both). The determination is preferably made using a process compact model of the process, itself developed in dependence upon the simulation model. | 01-01-2009 |
