Abstract: A method for identifying a set of optimized financing programs to provide to a merchant may include receiving historical loan application data defining historical parameters associated with corresponding historical loan applications, replacing at least a portion of the historical parameters of the historical loan application data with new parameters associated with different loan terms to define a simulated loan data set defining simulated financing programs, determining a selection probability score for each of the simulated financing programs, the selection probability score indicating a likelihood of customer selection of each respective one of the simulated financing programs, determining a cash flow rating for each of the simulated financing programs, the cash flow rating estimating cash flow over time for the each respective one of the simulated financing programs, determining a valuation score based on the selection probability score and the cash flow rating of the each respective one of the simulated

Abstract: An induction heating system can be adapted for shrink fitting a plurality of different assemblies. A plurality of tooling units associated to respective ones of the assemblies, each one having an appropriately configured induction coil and holder, can be provided. A computer can be used to control the delivery of electrical power to the induction coil in accordance with a heating recipe, and can be provided with an input device for inputting an assembly identifier allowing the computer to operate the control based on the right heating recipe.

Abstract: An engine mounting arrangement is provided for supporting a gas turbine engine. The mounting arrangement comprises a module adaptor mounted to an overhead or a ground based carrier for rotation about a substantially horizontal axis. The module adaptor extends horizontally from a base to an axially-opposed distal end having a first mounting interface configured for attachment to a module of the engine. The module adaptor holds the engine by the module to which it is attached and with the other engine modules projecting in a cantilever fashion from the supported module.

Abstract: One or more support elements radially extend through one or more openings defined in a turbine engine casing and are configured to centralize and at least partially support a rotor assembly of the engine during an engine disassembly or assembly procedure. The support elements are configured to transfer any rotor assembly weight loads to an engine casing while a bearing support of the rotor assembly is absent or removed.
