A cone beam CT imaging system incorporates the phase contrast in-line method, in which the phase coefficient rather than only the attenuation coefficient is used to reconstruct the image. Starting from the interference formula of in-line holography, the terms in the interference formula can be approximately expressed as a line integral that is the requirement for all CBCT algorithms. So, the CBCT ...

An omni-directional vehicle (ODV) with a circular frame revolvably coupled to an appendage ring using a full circumferential coupling assembly. The appendage ring serves as a point of attachment for a push bar, trailer, tool, vehicle chassis, or other device. Two independent drive wheels located on an axis through the center of the frame are mounted at the same distance from a central vertical axi...

The invention relates to a progressive prediction method for the generation of data relating to the meteorological situation around a carrier. Said method comprises steps for reading data relating to the speed of the carrier and to cloud formations, and steps for the calculation of the geographical position and the vector of the volumic parameters predicted at a given time horizon, for each cloud ...

A valve actuation system (56) for a power system (5) is provided. The valve actuation system has an engine valve (50) moveable to selectively prevent or allow a flow of fluid relative to the engine valve. The valve actuation system also has a cam assembly (62) with a first cam lobe (76) and a second cam lobe (78). The valve actuation system also has a cam follower (70) with a first tappet protrusi...

A lesion is optically detected in efficiently applying a fluorescent dye/probe for checking absence/presence of a lesion in a short time to an organism, and a sharp fluorescent image is captured. An endoscope system comprises agent ejecting means for ejecting a fluorescent agent combined with a specific substance in an object to be imaged or accumulated in the object, control means for controlling...

A biosensor comprising a first and a second substrate and an incompressible element extending between two edges of a sample chamber present between the substrates.; L'invention concerne des appareils et des méthodes pour déterminer la concentration d'un analyte dans un échantillon de liquide.

A system and method for continuously separating different isotopes of a particular element, such as Uranium, Zirconium, or Hydrogen, in an electrolytic medium. The ions of the isotopes to be separated are moved in the electrolytic medium using electric field. As the lighter ions will move faster than the heavier ions, the separation will happen and the lighter ions will be ahead of the heavier ion...
