Abstract: Reusable cups for collecting catamenia having a base, outer and inner walls, apertures, ribs, and ridges. In some examples, the reusable cups include a trimmable stem. In some further examples, the reusable cups include a circumferential band as a double seal for leak protection and to aid the reusable cups in fully expanding upon insertion and while in situ. In further examples, the reusable cups include indentations and indicia at the base of the reusable cups to work in tandem with the ribs and the apertures such that when the reusable cup is pinched at the base, the suction seal at the aperture and the lip is broken.

Abstract: A torque prediction module for an automatic transmission system includes a throttle-based torque prediction module. The throttle-based torque prediction module determines a first predicted torque of an engine in a vehicle that is based on a position of a throttle, an ambient air pressure, an intake temperature, and an engine speed. A torque offset module determines a torque offset that is based on the first predicted torque and a second predicted torque of the engine that is based on a mass airflow in an intake manifold of the engine. A blended torque module determines a third predicted torque of the engine that is based on the torque offset and the second predicted torque. A line pressure control module adjusts a line pressure of the automatic transmission based on the third predicted torque. An ECCC control module adjusts an amount of slip in an ECCC based on the third predicted torque.
