20130325413 | RESULTS-BASED TOOL SELECTION, DIAGNOSIS, AND HELP SYSTEM FOR A FEATURE-BASED MODELING ENVIRONMENT - In modeling environments, a user typically interacts with a feature-based model by manipulating a feature of the model using a tool that is capable of achieving a number of different results with respect to the feature. An interface may be displayed that allows for manipulations to be made based on a result to be achieved, rather than by providing a generalized tool to achieve the result. Accordingly, the number of options that are presented on the interface may be reduced by eliminating extraneous options that are associated with the tool but not directly applicable to the desired result. A dynamic help system may be provided that provides targeted, dynamically-generated information relating to the result to be achieved. Furthermore, warnings may be displayed on the interface in real time during the model design process. | 12-05-2013 |

20100283681 | Autonomous projection of global navigation satellite orbits - In a method of autonomous orbit projection performed within a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver, distinct broadcast orbits are received over time from a GNSS satellite during operation of the GNSS receiver. A plurality of the distinct broadcast orbits are stored within the GNSS receiver. Within the GNSS receiver, a plurality of the stored broadcast orbits are converted into a time series of range data for the GNSS satellite. A projected orbit for the GNSS satellite is determined by utilizing the time series of range data as an input to an orbit projector of the GNSS receiver. | 11-11-2010 |
20120154210 | GNSS Signal Processing to Estimate Orbits - Methods and apparatus are described for processing a set of GNSS signal data derived from signals of GNSS satellites observed at reference station receivers, the data representing code observations and carrier observations on each of at least two carriers over multiple epochs, comprising: obtaining an orbit start vector comprising: a time sequence of predicted positions and predicted velocities for each satellite over a first interval, and the partial derivatives of the predicted positions and predicted velocities with respect to initial positions, initial velocities, force model parameters and Earth orientation parameters, obtaining ionospheric-free linear combinations of the code observations and the carrier observations for each satellite at multiple reference stations, and iteratively correcting the orbit start vector using at each epoch the ionospheric-free linear combinations and predicted Earth orientation parameters, as soon as the ionspheric-free linear combinations of the epoch are available, to obtain updated orbit start vector values comprising a time sequence of predicted positions and predicted velocities for each satellite over a subsequent interval of epochs and an estimate of Earth orientation parameters. | 06-21-2012 |

20100143431 | BIOACTIVE, RUTHENIUM-CONTAINING COATING AND DEVICE - The invention relates to the production and use of novel bioactive devices and metallic coatings for example for sterilizing, disinfecting, and decontaminating water or aqueous solutions. The known oligodynamic effect of silver for reducing the amount of germs is thereby improved and increased by combining silver with ruthenium and a vitamin or derivative thereof. The novel properties of these bioactive metal surfaces lead to faster and more efficient killing of microorganisms. Simultaneously, these novel bioactive metal surfaces prevent infestation by microorganisms and attachment or permanent deposition of problematic biomolecules such as for example DNA, RNA, or proteins. A self-cleaning surface is thus obtained, which very quickly and efficiently and over extended periods of time sterilizes water and aqueous solutions when they come in contact with said surface. | 06-10-2010 |
