A universal passive protector for an IV catheter is provided. The protector comprises an over-the-needle catheter including a proximal hub. The hub is secured within a hub trap comprising first and second interlocking arms. The hub trap is secured to a distal end of a tubular sheath. A slider is disposed about the sheath, and connected to a proximal end of the needle through a slit in the sheath. When the slider is in a distal position, the needle maintains the arms in a closed configuration wherein the hub is secured to the hub trap. When the slider is moved to a proximal position, the needle moves to a proximal position wherein the needle no longer maintains the arms in a closed position. The arms snap to an open position, releasing the hub and trapping the sharp distal tip of the needle within the sheath. Medical technicians are thus protected against accidental needle sticks.

A method for operating a satellite () so that a predetermined amount of propellant is left to perform end-of-life maneuvers is provided. A first pressure differential is established between a first propellant tank () and a second propellant tank () by pressurizing the first tank () with a pressurant. Propellant is transferred from the first tank () to the second tank (). Using precise control during transfer the amount of propellant in the tanks may be determined. The second tank is used for orbit maintenance. The first tank is used for end-of-life maneuvers. Propellant may be transferred between the tanks using a latching process so that a predetermined amount of propellant may be transferred from a non-empty tank to a full tank.

A method and system for sharing data between networks comprises an interface for receiving data from plural inputs; a policy-based router operationally connected to the interface, the policy-based router assigns security levels to the data based on security characteristics of the inputs and the policy-based router assigns virtual Internet protocol addresses to the data; a memory for retaining the data with the Internet protocol addresses, the memory being operationally connected to the policy-based router; a translator for converting the data into a standard format; and a network stack for transmitting the data to a network. The method includes assigning security levels to the data based on security characteristics of the inputs; assigning virtual Internet protocol addresses to the data; retaining the data with the Internet protocol addresses; converting the data into a standard format; and transmitting the data to a network.

An electronic flight bag (EFB) system for use on a mobile platform, for example, a commercial or military aircraft. The EFB system includes first and second independent processors that run first and second independent software applications. The first software application may be a Type C application requiring a high level of governmental agency certification for use on an aircraft while the second application may be a commercially available, off-the-shelf software application that requires no certification. The two processors share a common display, although the first processor is provided with control over the display so that use of the display by the second processor can be inhibited or limited by the first processor as may be needed to display more critical flight or aircraft related information. The first processor is also provided with control over a switching subsystem that can interrupt the flow of information from external I/O devices to and from the second processor, if needed.

An apparatus includes a bod, an actuation assembly, and a guide catheter extending distally from the body. The guide catheter includes an open proximal end, an open distal end, a rigid proximal portion, a bendable distal portion, and a pull wire extending from the bendable distal portion to the rigid proximal portion. A proximal end of the pull wire is coupled with the actuation assembly. The actuation assembly is operable to translate the pull wire relative to the rigid proximal portion to thereby articulate the bendable distal portion.

The present disclosure relates to a method for making a carbon aerogel electrode material. The method involves initially making a wet organic sol-gel form. The sol-gel form is carbonized at a temperature of from about 900 C. to about 1000 C., for from about 2 hours to about 4 hours. The carbonized sol-gel is then activated under carbon dioxide flow, for from about 0.5 hour to about 1.5 hours, at from about 900 C. to about 1000 C.

Use of porous carbon aerogel materials as capacitive deionization (CDI) electrodes to selectively remove scale forming divalent ions (e.g., Mg, Ca) from “hard” waters. A first electrode and/or a second electrode are made from activated carbon with graphite current collectors. A non-conductive, electrolyte permeable paper or polymer membrane separator is sandwiched between the first electrode and the second electrode.
