20120313452 | Flux compression generator - A flux compression generator (FCG) is provided for producing an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). The FCG includes an environmental case, a reactive load, a dielectric core, a superconducting stator, an electric energy source, a load switch, and a transition device. The reactive load transmits the EMP in response to an electric current pulse. The dielectric core has proximal and distal ends within the case, with the stator disposed coaxially around the core that provides structural support. The case contains the electrical energy source, the stator, the core and the transition device. The energy source connects to the stator at the proximal end and powers the transition device. The load switch connects the reactive load to the stator at the distal end. The energy source initially provides an electric current to the stator. The device upon activation heats at least a portion of the stator to reversibly transition the portion from a superconducting state to a non-superconducting state. The stator transfers the electric current as the pulse to the reactive load upon the portion's transition to the non-superconducting state. The stator can be a superconducting helical coil that wraps around the core connected to a superconducting conductor disposed coaxially within the core. Alternatively, the stator can be a stack of superconducting rings disposed coaxially along the core. The superconducting coil and rings can preferably be composed of a high temperature superconductive material on a metal substrate. | 12-13-2012 |

20090203474 | Lacrosse Head Having A Flexible Stringing Member And A Recessed Scoop - A lacrosse head having at least one of a flexible stringing member and a recessed scoop is provided. In one embodiment, a slot is formed in a head along a stop member, a sidewall, and/or a scoop to provide the flexible stringing member. In another embodiment, the flexible stringing member is a flexible stringing bar that extends from a stop member to a scoop. In another embodiment, the flexible stringing member is more flexible in one direction than another. Through these embodiments, a flexible stringing member can dampen and dynamically narrow the pocket, enhance ball retention, increase pass/shot accuracy, and satisfy pocket-forming preferences. In another embodiment, a scoop has a recess that curves toward a stop member to increase the amount of surface area that contacts a ball when scooping. | 08-13-2009 |
20090264227 | OFFSET LACROSSE HEAD - An embodiment of the present invention provides an offset lacrosse head comprising a shaft, a collar, and a head. The collar defines an opening that receives the shaft. The head has a juncture. The juncture defines a socket that receives the collar, and the socket and the shaft are non-concentric. In a further aspect of this embodiment, the shaft has a shaft axis, the opening of the collar has an opening axis, the socket of the juncture has a socket axis, and at least one of the socket axis, the opening axis, and the shaft axis is offset, when viewed from a side elevation of the lacrosse stick facing an exterior of a sidewall of the head. | 10-22-2009 |

20090147824 | Wireless remote passive temperature sensor for monitoring food - A passive wireless temperature sensor with a loop antenna is placed in a remote environment for exposure to its changing temperature conditions. The sensor includes a coil of wire wrapped around a cylinder to form an air-core inductor. The cylinder contains a small amount of eutectic material similar to a conventional thermometer which has the property of being magnetic. A capacitor is connected to the coil of wire to form a resonant LC “tank” circuit. As temperature increases, the eutectic material expands through the cylinder at the core of the inductor causing an increase in inductance and corresponding decrease in the resonant frequency of the LC “tank” circuit. The temperature of the remote sensor is proportional to resonant frequency and can be determined by generating an oscillating signal and measuring resonant frequency of the remote sensor. | 06-11-2009 |

20160046954 | METHODS TO IMPROVE CROPS THROUGH INCREASED ACCUMULATION OF METHIONINE - The present invention describes an alternative approach to increase methionine (Met) production in eukaryotes, namely by the insertion of components of a sulfur-metabolic pathway in organisms where the pathway does not exist or has not clearly been identified. The invention describes methods for the use of polynucleotides that encode functional cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) alone or CDO and sulfinoalanine decarboxylase (SAD) polypeptides in plants to increase Met production. The preferred embodiment of the invention is in plants but other organisms may be used. Changes in Met availability will improve nutritional value of the crop. | 02-18-2016 |
