Fractal antennas and fractal resonators
InactiveUS7256751B2High bandwidthImprove efficiencyLogperiodic antennasAntenna supports/mountingsPhysical shapeImpedance matching
An antenna includes at least one element whose physical shape is at least partially defined as a second or higher iteration deterministic fractal. The resultant fractal antenna does not rely upon an opening angle for performance, and may be fabricated as a dipole, a vertical, or a quad, among other configurations. The number of resonant frequencies for the fractal antenna increases with iteration number N and more such frequencies are present than in a prior art Euclidean antenna. Further, the resonant frequencies can include non-harmonically related frequencies. At the high frequencies associated with wireless and cellular telephone communications, a second or third iteration, preferably Minkowski fractal antenna is implemented on a printed circuit board that is small enough to fit within the telephone housing. A fractal antenna according to the present invention is substantially smaller than its Euclidean counterpart, yet exhibits at least similar gain, efficiency, SWR, and provides a 50Ω termination impedance without requiring impedance matching.

The disclosed invention relates to methods for assisting and motivating persons with respect to various dietary and exercise regimens they might undertake, providing an interactive, iterative, “what-if” type of procedure where someone can see their predicted appearance in the future, also in clothes of their choice, and balance this with realistic expectations of what they may be able to achieve in terms of modification of their physical shape as a result of a planned course of action. This in turn leads to new methods of purchasing and manufacturing apparel and dietary or exercise related items in the present and future. A unique life size display screen, a “digital mirror” so to speak, with optional touch capabilities is also disclosed for input to, and display of, the computer aided models used, as well as inputs from a persons body sensed by TV cameras.

Method and device for registering the outer characteristics of a vehicle in a road toll unit
A method and a device for image registration of the external characteristics and the number plate of a vehicle in a road toll unit for checking the payment status relating to a toll fee, which is intended to be collected by means of remote communication. During the checking and payment operation, the vehicle is followed by successive video recordings. In these recordings, a marker is connected to the vehicle. The same marker is connected to the image of the number plate and to an image of the physical shape of the vehicle. In the event of incorrect payment, a search may be performed based upon both the image of the number plate and the associated image of the physical shape of the vehicle, which are connected together by means of the successive following of the position of the vehicle. The class of the vehicle may thus be determined, in accordance with a classification scheme based on the physical properties of the vehicle, from the image of the external characteristics of the vehicle for determining the toll fee.

A secure non-volatile solid state memory data key appears similar to a conventional USB flash drive modified to have a physical shape resembling a door key with an eyelet for attaching the data key to a key ring or lanyard. The data key includes a USB port, a microprocessor (effectively serving as the “chip” in the chip-and-pin configuration), and a secure memory for holding secure transaction information, such as credit and debit card numbers, verified personal identification (federated ID), and other secure data. A biometric sensor (e.g., touch sensor or “capcha”) verifies that a person is in physical possession of the data key before permitting access to the secure memory. The touch sensor may be limited to use by a unique individual person through a biometric reader, such as a finger print reader, where the verification finger print is stored on the key rather than the connected host device.

A multi-purpose bone plate system comprises a set of sterile malleable bone plates, an adjustable bending and contouring tower with adjustable angulation and compression slots and a set of bone plates with angulation and compression slots positioned at pre-selected locations to aid three-dimensional shaping of the bone plate. The surgeon inserts the sterile bone plate template to surround the fractured bone and works the template to acquire the physical shape of the fractured bone, inserts the template into the tower to set the adjustable angulation and compression slots of the tower. Now a symmetrical bone plate is inserted into the tower and bent to a shape that replicates the shape of the bone plate. The three-dimensionally shaped bone plate is sterilized and is attached by screws or nails surrounding the fractured bone segment and provides support to fractured bone segments during healing of the bone.

InactiveCN102531533APrevent leakageImprove mechanical propertiesSolid waste managementCeramicwareFoam concreteParaffin wax
The invention relates to a building foamed cement phase-change heat-preserving board (building block) and a manufacturing method thereof. The building foamed cement phase-change heat-preserving board (building block) mainly comprises foamed cement and paraffin wax with a phase-change function. The paraffin wax has high reversibility in the latent heat high-phase-change process, and the size of solid paraffin wax beads and the aperture of the foamed cement are controlled precisely, so that the phase-change materials are distributed in a finished product uniformly and can absorb a heat source and release heat to the maximum degree. A process for utilizing the phase-change materials is simple, and manufacturing cost is low. The defects of complex production method and high manufacturing cost of the traditional phase-change material coating are overcome, and the physical shape of the paraffin wax and hole wall strength, compactness and water resistance of foam concrete are changed, so that the foam concrete and the phase-change materials are organically combined into the finished product by the simplest method and the most economic route. Therefore, energy-saving building material products with various purposes, such as inner and outer wall foamed cement phase-change heat-preserving boards, inner and outer partition wall foamed cement phase-change heat-preserving boards, roofing foamed cement phase-change heat-preserving boards, wall foamed cement phase-change heat-preserving building blocks and the like can be manufactured by selecting different volume weights and properties.

Biomechanical design of intracorneal inlays
Provided herein are intracorneal inlays for correcting vision impairments by altering the shape of the anterior corneal surface. The physical design of the inlay to induce the desired change of the anterior corneal surface includes consideration of the biomechanical response of the corneal tissue to the physical shape of the inlay. This biomechanical response can differ depending on the thickness, diameter, and profile of the inlay. In one embodiment, inlays having diameters smaller than the pupil are provided for correcting presbyopia. To provide near vision, an inlay is implanted centrally in the cornea to induce an “effect” zone on the anterior corneal surface, within which diopter power is increased. Distance vision is provided by a region of the cornea peripheral to the “effect” zone. In another embodiment, small diameter inlays are provided that induce “effect” zones on the anterior corneal surface that are much larger in diameter than the inlays.

To provide a plasma display panel and a field emission display having an anti-reflection function which can further reduce reflection of incident light from an external source. By providing an anti-reflection layer which geometrically includes a plurality of adjacent hexagonal pyramid-shaped projections, reflection of light is prevented. The reflective index changes from a surface side of display screen to an out side (an atmosphere side) due to a physical shape of a hexagonal pyramid. The plurality of hexagonal pyramid-shaped projections can be provided densely without any space remaining, and six surfaces of side of the hexagonal pyramid-shaped projection are each provided at different angles to a base surface. Therefore, light ray can be effectively scattered in many directions.
