Talent device

The Medtronic Talent device is a stent graft constructed from a plain woven polyester fabric and a nitinol stent frame. The bifurcated device for the abdominal aorta has a bare suprarenal stent, but no hooks or barbs. The thoracic stent graft has been replaced by the Valiant device (see below). Early Talent devices had a rigid longitudinal bar that was meant to provide columnar support. However, this component signihcantly decreased the flexibility of the device, and so has been discontinued in more recent models. [Pg.653]

No Englishman took a more prominent part in the discoveries in pneumatic chemistry than did Joseph Priestley. Without training in science, unfamiliar with the previous work of chemists in general, Priestley took up the study of chemistry as an amateur, but with great enthusiasm, a decided talent for experimental devices, and... [Pg.479]

There emerges from these considerations a kind of triangular structure of the activities at one corner is the scientist, at a second the "brute force of a large and powerful computer, and at the third are graphics devices. One theme of this article is that a properly designed system must pay attention to the special talents of each member of this partnership, dividing the labor in an optimal way, and must provide channels of communication of adequate capacity among them. [Pg.148]

In the spring of 1945, preparations began in the Pacific for the use of the atomic bomb. On May 8, 1945, Germany surrendered, and the project was then focused solely on Japan. On July 16, 1945, a test device code-named Gadget was detonated at the Alamogordo Bombing Range in New Mexico as part of Project Trinity, the first explosion of a nuclear weapon. The success of the first test of a nuclear weapon was a testament to the ability of the leadership of the Manhattan Project to carry out an unprecedented industrial project, with the world s most talented scientists... [Pg.757]

A fuel cell is a device that converts chemical energy directly into electrical energy, and its operation can be explained using electrochemical concepts that are well understood. The simplest form was developed in 1839 by the talented British chemist William R. Grove, using a beaker, two test tubes, platinum coated wires, and a dilute acid. [Pg.4]

He began his work in hydrology also in 1862, with the modification of pre-existing mill pond dams at Menomonie. Tainter had talent for designing water control devices to be used on the Red Cedar River and tributaries within the territory of the company. [Pg.873]

At the outset, I wish to candidly state that I am not an entrepreneur in the league of Richard Ferrari or Thomas Fogarty, who are considered to be prolific giants in the realm of medical device entrepreneurship. However, I am sharing my story and passion for the field, presenting some basic methodologies to select and run a project, and to maybe, somehow, influence talented individuals to join the field of bioengineering that I chose and love. [Pg.143]

The similar chemical effects of frictional and voltaic electricity led him to conclude that they were identical, long before such a view became commonplace. Later, after perfecting the process of drawing extremely fine platinum wires, Wollaston constructed his "thimble battery", which was a very small galvanic cell capable of bringing a platinum filament to incandescence upon iimiersion in dilute vitriolic acid. Both demonstrations illustrate Wollaston s talent for eadiibiting natural phenomena by means of inexpensive "shirt-pocket" devices. [Pg.20]
