20090054953 | Phototherapeutic Method and Apparatus - A method of skin rejuvenation involves subjecting the skin to a first course of phototherapeutic treatment using non-laser near-infrared light over a period of between 3 days and 2 weeks; subjecting the skin to a second course of phototherapeutic treatment using non-laser red light over a period of between 1 and 5 weeks; and subjecting the skin to a third course of phototherapeutic treatment using non-laser near-infrared light over a period of between 1 and 10 weeks. The different courses are designed to stimulate inflammation, proliferation and remodelling phases in the skin. Another phototherapeutic method comprises subjecting an area to be treated to a first course of phototherapy using red and/or infrared light; treating the area; and subjecting the treated area to a second course of phototherapy using red or infrared light. The method may enhance an aesthetic treatment which relies on photothermolysis or mechanical damage. In another method, a course of phototherapy comprising discrete sessions of phototherapy, using red and infrared light separately, is used to improve wound healing. | 02-26-2009 |

20090185912 | Method of Protecting a Component Against Hot Corrosion and a Component Protected by Said Method - A method of protecting a component, in particular a turbine blade, from the effects of hot corrosion includes the steps of applying a chromium diffusion coating to the component and applying a coating of a ceramic material to one or more selected regions of the chromium diffusion coating. The selected regions are regions which, in subsequent use of the component, are subjected to temperatures lower than a predetermined temperature. The ceramic material preferably includes a binder combined with a metal oxide. In a preferred embodiment, a turbine blade is coated over the whole of its internal and external surfaces with the chromium diffusion coating; an aluminium diffusion coating is then applied, through a mask, to the aerofoil surfaces and the internal surfaces of the blade; the mask is removed and the ceramic material is applied as an overlay to the chromium diffusion coating in a region between the platform and the root of the blade. | 07-23-2009 |
20090263237 | Coated turbine component and method of coating a turbine component - Turbine components with different types of coatings on different parts thereof are described. The coatings are chosen such that they are especially adapted to the thermal and corrosive conditions being present on the parts of the component during use. A method to coat a turbine component is also described. | 10-22-2009 |

20100138362 | Methods and Systems For Commoditizing Interest Rate Swap Transfers - A method, system, and financial products for trading a commoditized claim. The claim obligates one party to pay on demand to a second party an amount, for value rolling spot, transparently determined with reference to a market quote for spot-starting benchmark interest rate swap contracts of pre-specified tenor. The claim is denominated in terms of the sensitivity of present value to a one basis point yield change (“PV01”). The claim may be a debt obligation of a third-party and may be open-ended. Embodiments of the claim closely replicate interest rate swap risk profiles and permanently track benchmark quotes, and do so within a simplified operational framework. There is a linear intra-day and index-linked overnight relationship between (i) the market rate for the pre-specified grid-point constant maturity swap and (ii) the payment obligation. Securitized, bilateral, OTC and futures contract embodiments are disclosed. | 06-03-2010 |
