Abstract: Dynamic display output techniques for computing systems and user devices are presented herein. Examples include downstream device-selectable outputs from a user device over a shared connector for HDMI and DisplayPort interfaces. In one example, a method of providing a display output from a user device includes detecting a downstream device communicatively coupled to the user device over a display connector. Responsive to detecting coupling of the downstream device, the method includes sensing a mode selection input by the downstream device through the display connector, and selectively providing at least video output over the display connector compatible with a preferred video interface indicated by the mode selection input.

Abstract: A Helmholtz damper for a gas turbine is disclosed which includes a static resonator volume, which can be connected via a neck to an inner space of the gas turbine to damp pressure pulsations developing in the inner space. The static resonator volume can be changed in order to match resonances of the Helmholtz damper with the pressure pulsations. A simple and effective self-adjustment can be achieved via volume changing by at least one first element, which is exposed to a varying temperature within the gas turbine and undergoes a deformation, which depends on the varying temperature.
