Abstract: A container assembly is disclosed in various configurations such as a flexible or substantially rigid wall. The container, therefore, may at least partially enclose a container volume. A cap assembly may be retained, such as tethered, to the container in a selected manner.

Abstract: A speaker can have a main body with a generally spheroidal shape, which can be supported standing on its end. The speaker can include a subwoofer that faces forward. A plurality of mid-range drivers can be distributed around the sub-woofer, facing generally forward and radially outward. A plurality of tweeters can be distributed around the sub-woofer, facing generally forward and generally outward. The outer housing portion of the speaker can be covered with a fabric material. A user interface ring 162 can be touch sensitive to receive input, and can have a plurality of lights that can be illuminated separately to convey information to the user.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for manufacturing an unconsolidated composite material. Sensor data is received from a sensor system for a composite material manufacturing system, wherein the sensor data is received during manufacturing of the unconsolidated composite material by the composite material manufacturing system. A set of predicted properties is determined for a number of portions of the unconsolidated composite material as completed from manufacturing by the composite material manufacturing system using the sensor data. A quality level for the number of portions of the unconsolidated composite material is identified based on the set of predicted properties for the number of portions of the unconsolidated composite material.

Abstract: There is provided a method of manufacturing a multi-layered film structure on a handling substrate. The film structure may hold a core film layer, which may hold an active ingredient. There is also provided method for manufacturing multi-layered microstructures. The microstructures may be manufactured based on a provided multi-layered film structure having a core film layer holding an active ingredient. The active ingredient may be a drug, and the microstructures may be used for drug delivery.

Abstract: A closure for a container. The closure includes an outer shell having a proximal end, a distal end, an inner surface, and an outer surface. The closure also including an inner cap having a proximal end, a distal end, an inner surface, and an outer surface. A plurality of ribs extend from the inner cap to the outer shell. A tamper-evident band encircles the distal end of the inner cap. The tamper-evident band includes a plurality of tamper-evident segments. Each tamper-evident segment has a tab coupled with one of the plurality of ribs and a break segment. A first end of the break segment is coupled with the tab and a second end of the break segment is coupled with an adjacent one of the plurality of ribs.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, computer program product, and a method for manufacturing an unconsolidated composite material. Sensor data is received from a sensor system for a composite material manufacturing system. The sensor data is received during manufacturing an unconsolidated composite material by the composite material manufacturing system. A set of predicted properties is determined for a number of portions of the unconsolidated composite material using the sensor data. The set of predicted properties is for the number of portions of the unconsolidated composite material as a completed product. A corrective action is performed based on a quality level for the number of portions of the unconsolidated composite material.

Abstract: A tamper-evident closure for a container includes a straw having an outer edge with an outwardly extending projection. The closure includes a cap with a rib. A tamper-evident tab extends from the rib. The tab has an inwardly extending lug configured to engage with the outwardly extending projection of the straw as the cap rotates relative to the straw when the cap and the straw are secured together. The tab has a has a foldable portion configured to fold the lug inwardly to provide a visual indication when the cap is an unsealed configuration.

Abstract: Protein polyurethane alloys including one or more proteins dissolved within one or more polyurethanes. The protein polyurethane alloy may have one or more mechanical properties that are superior to the polyurethane in the absence of protein. The protein polyurethane alloys may be incorporated into a layered material including one or more protein polyurethane alloy layers.

Abstract: A stator vane includes an airfoil having an airfoil shape. The airfoil shape has a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in one of Table I, Table II, Table III, Table IV, Table V, Table VI, Table VII, or Table VIII. The Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values from 0% to 100% convertible to dimensional distances expressed in a unit of distance by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a scaling factor of the airfoil in the unit of distance. The X and Y values, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each Z value. The airfoil profile sections at Z values are joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.
