20080263489	METHOD TO IDENTIFY AND GENERATE CRITICAL TIMING PATH TEST VECTORS - A method of testing critical paths in integrated circuits begins by simulating at least one operation of an integrated circuit chip design to produce chip timing data. Next, critical paths of the integrated circuit chip design are identified based on the chip timing data. The method applies functional test signals to simulations of the critical paths and monitors the number of times each of the functional test signals propagate from the beginning to the end of each of the critical paths. This allows the method to identify stress producing test signals as those that propagate along the critical paths more than other test signals. These stress producing test signals are applied to integrated circuit chip hardware manufactured according to the integrated circuit chip design to stress test the hardware.	10-23-2008

20110297261	WATER VAPOR TRANSFER ASSEMBLY - A water vapor transfer assembly for a fuel cell system includes at least one water vapor transfer device. The water vapor transfer device permits a transfer of water from a wet stream to a dry stream. The water vapor transfer device is disposed between a pair of end plates. The end plates each have a plurality of outwardly extending ribs. The water vapor transfer device and the end plates are disposed within a housing having a pair of wet stream apertures and a pair of dry stream apertures formed therein. The housing further includes a plurality of channels formed adjacent the dry stream apertures. The channels are in fluid communication with the wet stream apertures. The outwardly extending ribs of the end plates cooperate with the channels to define a tortuous bypass flow path between the wet stream apertures of the housing.	12-08-2011
20130056080	ADJUSTABLE AIR FLOW BYPASS IN A WATER VAPOR TRANSFER ASSEMBLY TO REDUCE BEGINNING OF LIFE WATER TRANSFER VARIATION - A bypass unit for a water vapor transfer assembly includes a main body, a check valve, and an adjustable flow regulator. The main body has a conduit formed therethrough. The check valve is in communication with the conduit. The check valve normally militates against a flow of a bypass stream through the conduit and permits the flow of the bypass stream through the conduit above a threshold flow rate. The flow regulator is in communication with the conduit. The flow regulator permits an adjustment of the flow of the bypass stream to modify the water transfer rate of the water transfer assembly.	03-07-2013
20140106244	PLATE-STYLE WATER VAPOR TRANSFER UNIT WITH INTEGRAL HEADERS - A water vapor transfer unit having fluid flow conduits which distribute wet or dry fluid throughout the water vapor transfer unit, which are created by forming apertures in each wet and dry plate so that when the plates are stacked, fluid flow inlet and outlet headers are integrated into the flow stack. These integrated headers negate the need for traditional wet and dry fluid inlet and outlet manifolds external to the water vapor transfer unit stack. Because the plates are stacked and sealed so that the fluid flows cannot co-mingle, the fluids are introduced directly into the stack, flow across the flow fields, and exit the stack without leakage or flow contamination. The integrated header design allows for sealing the stack on no more than a single plane defined by the stack or on no more than two parallel opposing planes and allows for accommodation of stack expansion and contraction.	04-17-2014
20150111131	SEALED WATER VAPOR TRANSFER UNIT ASSEMBLY WITH INTEGRATED LOAD TRANSFERRING STRUCTURE - A water vapor transfer unit assembly is disclosed, the water vapor transfer unit assembly including a plurality of water vapor transfer units having a fluid permeable membrane and a plurality of supports disposed within a sealing frame adjacent an end plate of a fuel cell stack, wherein the sealing frame is adapted to provide support to the end plate and a fuel cell stack of the fuel cell stack system.	04-23-2015
20150345343	SWITCHABLE ROCKER ARM WITH IMPROVED SWITCHING RESPONSE TIME - A rocker arm includes a follower which follows a first lobe of a camshaft and is mounted to a rocker arm body; a lock pin that is selectively moveable in a lock bore between a first position and a second position in order to prevent relative movement between the rocker arm body and the follower in one of the first position and the second position and to permit relative movement between the rocker arm body and the follower in the other of the first position and the second position; and a rocker arm oil passage in fluid communication with the lock bore for communicating oil therethrough to move the lock pin between the first position and the second position. The rocker arm oil passage is elongated in a circumferential direction relative to the lock bore.	12-03-2015
