Abstract: The subject innovation relates to engine driven welding systems and methods regulating an environmentally controlled electrode compartment within storage constraints to maintain electrode integrity regardless of environmental factors outside the container. Various sensors and controllers which directly or indirectly provide input to the engine of the engine driven welder are used to facilitate such regulation, which is conducted at least in part using the engine itself.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention comprise a system and method to weld or join coated materials using an arc welding system alone, or in combination with a hot wire system, where the arc welding system uses a welding current having an AC current portion to build a droplet for transfer to the workpiece. In further embodiments, the workpiece is coated with a material, such as zinc, and the arc welding system uses an AC welding waveform which is capable of welding coated workpieces with little or no porosity or spatter and can achieve enhanced performance. Additional embodiments use an enhanced electrode to provide optimum porosity performance. Such embodiments allow for the welding of coated material with little or no porosity and spatter, and at a high welding rate.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices of the various embodiments enable parallel control of multiple uninterruptable power modules (“UPMs”) connecting multiple power sources to a bus in parallel. A UPM may be comprised of at least one controller coupled to at least one inverter, and the UPM may be configured to convert the DC voltage output from a DC source to an AC voltage, such as an AC voltage suitable for output to an AC bus. A UPM may receive a power sharing command and control its at least one inverter based at least in part on the received power sharing command to output a voltage to a bus.

Abstract: A method, system, and architecture for managing computer systems is provided. A management system employs management objects (MOs) to provide administrators the ability to intuitively express the administrative intent in an information technology (IT) environment, and to act out the administrative intent based on the information gathered by the management system. Managed elements of an IT environment, such as, by way of example, hardware components, software applications, software updates, software distribution policies, configurations, settings, etc., may be expressed as MOs. Actions, such as, by way of example, detect, install/apply, remove, remediate, enumerate, etc., may be associated with the MOs. The management system manages the computer systems by deploying the appropriate MOs and their associated actions onto the computer systems, and performing the actions on the computer systems.

Abstract: A method for controlling a dump body of a hauling machine wherein the hauling machine includes an engine, at least one extendable cylinder, a lift energy source, and a controller is provided. The method includes initiation of the dump operation, detection of payload from the payload signal, calculation of engine throttle based on the payload information, and detection of machine speed based on the machine speed signal. Upon detection of machine speed, if the machine speed coincides with the first selective dump command, the transmission is disengaged and the payload is released at selective dump angle. If the machine speed coincides with the second selective dump command, the payload is released at selective dump angle.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for joining pipes where a keyhole is formed in each of the pipe ends and then a filler metal is placed in the keyholes to join the pipes to each other. The filler metal can be deposited using a laser hot wire process.

Abstract: Stable premixes comprising retigabine, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and process for preparing the same are disclosed. Stable premixes comprising retigabine, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic carrier, and processes for preparing the same and incorporating them in compositions that are employed for therapeutic uses and methods of treatment.

Abstract: An information access device is disclosed comprising an interface for connecting the information access device to a network; a further interface for providing the information access device with a string of information request indicators; an interpretation layer for extracting an information source from the string and for generating an instruction for triggering a different application of the device to retrieve the information from the information source; and a processor for executing the generated instruction.

Abstract: Sustained release formulations comprising donepezil, or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and methods of preparing the sustained release formulations.

Abstract: An arc welding system includes a wire feeding mechanism for delivering welding wire to a welding operation, and a welding power supply for generating a current for welding to the welding wire. The welding wire includes at least two distinct types of welding electrodes.

Abstract: A document processing method comprises adding document markers to predetermined locations of an electronically stored document. These are printed with the document. The document is scanned and the scanned document markers are used to process the scanned image. This processing comprises at least pixel threshold setting, and determination of the locations of the scanned image which are to be processed to derive the pixels of a digital version of the document. This enables local deformations in the paper document to be corrected, and enables correct thresholds for the printing and scanning operations to be applied. The electronically stored document can be processed to derive a set of document properties which can be used when constructing the digital version.

Abstract: Aspects of the present application relate to pharmaceutical formulations comprising a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, together with a proton pump inhibitor drug, to reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal complications associated with chronic therapy with a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Specific aspects of the application relate to fixed dose combinations comprising aspirin, or a derivative thereof, and omeprazole or esomeprazole, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, or hydrates thereof.

Abstract: Information from a business application system, such as an ERP system, may be published to a business application user-generated web page for display to an end user and for collecting information from an end user to make available for download into the business application system. The user-generated web page may be defined as a web-based visual representation of a structured data solution, which may define data, data presentation, and data binding metadata for enabling a solution scenario, such as vendor enrollment, sourcing, time entry, job listings, vendor-managed inventory, sales lead capture, purchase order/invoicing, service contract renewal, and customer support requests, and the like. Business application users may be enabled to connect with potential and existing customers, partners, and vendors from within the business application system via the web-based visual representation, and additionally, may capture interactions directly into the business application system without IT dependency.
