Abstract: A computer-implemented method is for detecting Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal spoofing. The method includes storing sample sequences of the predictable part and of the unpredictable part of a GNSS signal at a GNSS receiver. The predictable part includes predictable bits and the unpredictable part includes unpredictable bits. The value of the unpredictable bits from which the unpredictable sample sequences are extracted is verified. A first and a second partial correlation between the unpredictable, respectively predictable, sample sequences and a locally stored GNSS signal replica are computed. A predefined metric from the complex valued partial correlations is calculated. The predefined metric is compared with a predefined threshold value. In a zero-delay replay attack, the spoofer estimates the unpredictable bits introduced by a GNSS authentication protocol and introduces distortion into the signal.

Abstract: A modular rail as a wire harness mounting system uses clips and tie straps. Each clip has a clip post engaging a mounting hole and a clip head. The modular rail has a plurality of rail segments sequentially joined by toolless interlocks disposed at each longitudinal end of each rail segment. Each rail segment has a plurality of eyelets at longitudinally-spaced locations for receiving respective tie-down straps adapted to encircle the wire harness. The interlocks have complementary clasp features including a latch tab that deflects to enable engagement of each respective interlock. A bottom surface of each rail segment has a plurality of longitudinally-spaced brackets, each having a slide track configured to secure a clip head along a range of locations on the slide track. A top surface of each rail segment receives the wire harness when the wire harness is secured via the tie-down straps being inserted through respective eyelets.

Abstract: In one example, a printing fluid delivery system for a printer is described. The printing fluid delivery system includes a plurality of interconnected printing fluid supply modules forming a page-wide printing fluid manifold to supply printing fluid from one or more cartridges to one or more printheads along a print bar in a printer.

Abstract: A fluid tank comprises a rigid container and a bag to receive a fluid. The bag is arranged within the container and comprises a fluid opening to allow a fluid to flow therethrough. A perimeter of the bag extends in a first direction and in a second direction and is supported within the container, such that the perimeter of the bag is movable in no more than the first direction and the second direction.

Abstract: Device for simultaneous and rapid determination of the fertility hormones estradiol, progesterone, luteinizing hormone and prolactin in saliva comprising a biosensor (10) provided with four working electrodes (12, 13, 14, 15), an auxiliary electrode (11) and a reference electrode (16) and a single potentiostatic circuit (2) having a single channel, which shares the auxiliary and reference electrodes, a multiplexer (3) to multiplex the signals from the four working electrodes, a transimpedance amplifier (4), an analog-digital signal converter (5) and a controller (6).

Abstract: A known volume of liquid is delivered to a liquid supply system. A first pressure of the liquid supply system after delivery of a first known volume of liquid into the liquid supply system is determined. A second pressure of the liquid supply system after delivery of a second known volume of liquid into the liquid supply system is determined. The volume of compressible gas trapped in the liquid supply system is determined from the second known volume of delivered liquid and the first and second pressures.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a group of single-nucleotide polymorphisms or variants (SNPs) in chromosome 6 to obtain data that is useful in the prognosis of a disease involving sensorineural hearing loss, to a kit or devices and to the uses thereof.

Abstract: In an example, a valve for a printing fluid supply system is disclosed. In this example, the valve includes two rigid shells to provide connections to a first printing fluid supply cartridge, a second printing fluid supply cartridge and a printhead. Further, the valve includes a diaphragm with sealing elements disposed between the two rigid shells to selectively couple one of the first printing fluid supply cartridge and the second printing fluid supply cartridge to the printhead and seal other printing fluid supply cartridge using the sealing elements.

Abstract: There is provided a method, comprising configuring a liquid delivery means to deliver a known volume of liquid to a liquid supply system. A first pressure of the liquid supply system after the liquid delivery means has delivered a first known volume of liquid into the liquid supply system is determined. A second pressure of the liquid supply system after the liquid delivery means has delivered a second known volume of liquid into the liquid supply system in determined. The volume of compressible gas trapped in the liquid supply system is determined from the second known volume of delivered liquid and the first and second pressures.

Abstract: A process for the complete or partial oxidation of hydrocarbons comprises contacting a C1-C8 hydrocarbon and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst under conditions suitable to convert the C1-C8 hydrocarbon to at least one corresponding C1-C8 oxygenate product, wherein the heterogeneous catalyst provides confinement and contains both Brønsted-Lowry and Lewis acid centers. Particularly useful catalysts may include, for example, metal-modified ZSM-5 and other zeolites.

Examples include zeolites modified with selected metals or metal oxides. Including copper, either in the catalyst, in a second catalyst of similar description, or as a homogeneous salt, increases both selectivity and activity of the process, particularly where an iron-containing catalyst is used.

Abstract: A transportable shade device to provide a portable shaded area for outdoor workers. The structure features a wheeled frame which is engageable to be towed. A pair of opposing shade panels are rotationally engaged to a vertical support above a center section of said frame. Both panels rotate to an extended position to maximize shade to a seating area on the frame and rotate to a retracted position to minimize wind load on the structure during towing at highway speeds.
