  • Publication number: 20240141471
    Abstract: A method of forming an Al—Zn—Si—Mg alloy coating on a steel strip includes dipping steel strip into a bath of molten Al—Zn—Si—Mg alloy and forming a coating of the alloy on exposed surfaces of the steel strip. The method also includes controlling conditions in the molten coating bath and downstream of the coating bath so that there is a uniform Al/Zn ratio across the surface of the coating formed on the steel strip. An Al—Zn—Mg—Si coated steel strip includes a uniform Al/Zn ratio on the surface or the outermost 1-2 ?m of the Al—Zn—Si—Mg alloy coating.

  • Publication number: 20240135028
    Abstract: A system and method of dynamic search result permission checking. A system that provides end users the ability to search an index (i.e., Shinydocs Index) built from content from one or multiple source repositories, and only display results for which the user has sufficient permissions at source to view. User credentials are validated “on the fly”, such that these checks are performant across a multiple of possible back-end repositories sequentially or simultaneously. The resultant search results from the Index may be sourced from many disparate repositories, each of which have their own unique permission structure (to view individual items). A method for handling permissions in multiple repositories in a secure (yet performant) fashion in order to only display search results that the end-user is allowed to view based on source system permissions.

  • Patent number: 11966629
    Abstract: A distributed data storage system can be configured with a host connected to a first device and an initialization module that performs a default initialization procedure on the first device in response to detecting the first device has an unknown manufacturing origin. Conducting the default initialization procedure may allow the first device to service data access requests from the host. In response to the connection of a second device to the host and initialization module, a manufacturing origin of the second device is identified with the initialization module before the initialization module customizes the default initialization procedure to a custom procedure that is executed to allow the second device to satisfy a background operation prescribed by the initialization module.

  • Publication number: 20240123289
    Abstract: Performance of an athlete is evaluated using position data of the athlete over time during performance of a set of movements. Movement metrics for the set of movements are determined, the movement metrics including measures of acceleration and power. Performance metrics for the athlete are then calculated to indicate the athlete's strength and speed. A reference data set is defined based on various attributes associated with the athlete. The performance metrics are applied to the reference data set to determine a performance category for the athlete, the performance category indicating relative strength and speed of the athlete among other athletes represented in the reference data set. Lastly, a training regimen for the athlete is generated based on the performance category.

  • Publication number: 20240108846
    Abstract: A humidification system for delivering humidified gases to a user can include a heater base, humidification chamber having an inlet, outlet, and associated fluid conduit, and breathing circuit including a supply conduit, inspiratory conduit, and optional expiratory conduit. The humidification system can include various features to help make set-up less difficult and time-consuming. For example, the supply conduit, inspiratory conduit, and optional expiratory conduit can be coupled into a one-piece circuit to aid set-up. Various components can be color-coded and can have corresponding structures to indicate which components should be connected to one another during set-up. Such features can also help make the set-up process more intuitive for an operator, which can reduce the need for specialized training and reduce the number of potential errors.
