The present invention comprises compositions and methods of making high internal phase emulsion foam (HIPE) and inverse high internal phase emulsion foam (I-HIPE) using super critical fluids. Such foams may be used in a wide variety of articles such as absorbent articles.

The invention discloses a folding lightweight landing mechanism and relates to the landing mechanism of a lander. The invention aims at solving the problems of large volume, complexity in a buffer structure and high cost of the existing landing mechanism of the lander during the launching process. The folding lightweight landing mechanism comprises a triangular space truss type support, a buffer component, an instrument platform and three landing legs, wherein the triangular space truss type support comprises a triangular support, a star-shaped support, a space truss connecting rod component, three groups of main landing leg connecting components and three groups of auxiliary landing leg connecting components, the triangular support and the star-shaped support are arranged at the upper part and the lower part, the triangular support is connected with the star-shaped support through the connecting rod component, the three landing legs are distributed and connected on the periphery of the triangular space truss type support through the main landing leg connecting components and the auxiliary landing leg connecting components, and the triangular space truss type support is connected with the instrument platform through the buffer component. The folding lightweight landing mechanism is applicable to lander exploration activities for asteroids, comets, the moon, the Mars and the like.

A solid-state imaging device includes: multiple pixels making up a slanted grid array inclined to a scanning direction, which include a photoelectric conversion unit configured to convert incident light quantity into an electric signal; and a charge-to-voltage conversion unit configured to convert signal charge read out from the photoelectric conversion unit disposed between two pixels adjacent to each other in the diagonal direction of the pixels of the multiple pixels into voltage; wherein the charge-to-voltage conversion unit is shared with the two pixels; and wherein a set of transistor group are disposed in a sharing block, which is configured of a pixel pair made up of the two pixels adjacent to each other in the diagonal direction, and a pixel pair adjacent to that pixel pair, including wiring to which the charge-to-voltage conversion unit of each pixel pair is connected.

Systems and methods for improving operation of a hybrid vehicle are presented. In one example, a transfer function of a driveline disconnect clutch is adapted.
