摘要:
An integrated diagnosis and prognosis system that collects vehicle information over the life of a vehicle and its development. The system provides the collected vehicle information to supplier management, product development management, service/dealership management, customer relations departments and production facilities, which use the information to take certain action for existing vehicles, fleets of vehicles or future vehicles to improve vehicle reliability and quality.
摘要:
A system and method for providing autonomous and remote vehicle maintenance and repair. The system employs an on-board diagnosis and prognosis module that monitors one or more vehicle buses to identify trouble codes and other information indicating a vehicle problem. The on-board module causes a telematic device on the vehicle to broadcast a message including a problem code that identifies the problem the vehicle is having. A remote repair center may receive the message and may identify a software upgrade patch associated with the problem that can be transmitted to the vehicle to upgrade its software to correct the problem. Also, the message may be received by another vehicle that is part of a broadcast network that has previously received the software upgrade patch to fix a problem on that vehicle, where the receiving vehicle may transmit the software upgrade patch to the vehicle having the problem.
摘要:
A method of transplantation that includes lineage priming human progenitor cells, to form lineage primed cells and transplanting the lineage primed cells into a patient. The lineage primed cells are selected from the group consisting of oligodendrocytic lineage primed cells, dopaminergic lineage primed cells, and motoneuronal lineage primed cells, and lineage priming has an efficiency of at least 1%.
摘要:
A system and method for telemetrically collecting on-road vehicle diagnostic data. In one embodiment, the method includes collecting vehicle diagnostic data from service shops, on-road vehicles and warranty records, aggregating the collected data and extracting knowledge therefrom. The extracted knowledge can be used to enhance algorithms on-board vehicles or at service centers so as to better identify vehicle faults and provide enhanced diagnostics and prognostics. The enhanced algorithms can then be used to provide predictive maintenance suggestions, provide trouble shooting assistance or provide vehicle design improvements.
摘要:
A hair care composition which comprises a plurality of cross-linked polymer particles, said polymer being the polymerization product of at least two monomer units selected from the group consisting of monoalkenyl aromatic compounds, alkyl esters derived from a saturated alcohol and acrylic or methacrylic acid, and vinyl esters of an aliphatic carboxylic acid is useful for controlling sebum on hair without providing undue whiteness to the hair.
摘要:
A method of treating a subject for a serotonergic neurotransmission dysregulation disorder, comprises administering the subject a serotonin enhancer (e.g., a serotonin reuptake inhibitor) in an amount effective to treat the disorder; and concurrently administering the subject 5-hydroxytryptophan in an amount effective to enhance the activity of the serotonin enahancer, (e.g., serotonin reuptake inhibitor). In preferred embodiments the disorder is depression, anxiety, or substance abuse.
摘要:
A process for measuring skin ashing is provided. The process comprises selecting a desired skin testing area and acguiring an image of the area using x-polarization technique. The image is analyzed by obtaining a light distributing image, storing the difference between this image and the original image and using a differential in intensity to define ashing.
摘要:
A dental material comprising a hardenable resin and silica particles dispersed within the hardenable resin, wherein the silica particles have an average diameter of less than about 200 nm and are present in an amount greater than about 40 wt % of the weight of the dental material. The dental material may further comprise a heavy metal oxide. The dental material can be used as dental adhesives, artificial crowns, anterior or posterior fillings, casting materials, cavity liners, cements, coating compositions, mill blanks, orthodontic devices, restoratives, prostheses, and sealants.
摘要:
A post-combustion lance for use in refining molten metal and recovering heat by combustion of combustible gases evolved from the molten metal bath is provided with a plurality of pairs of post-combustion nozzles arranged about the periphery of the lance above the lower end thereof. The nozzles of each pair are directed downwardly toward the lower end of the lance and at an angle to a radius of the lance, such that supersonic oxygen jets emanating from corresponding nozzles of adjacent pairs intersect, whereby the momentum of the individual supersonic jets is partially cancelled thereby forming a single, subsonic oxygen jet which burns combustible off-gases above the surface of the molten metal bath, reducing heat loss by the anti-post-combustion reaction and minimizes furnace lining wear due to shorter flames.
