Patent number: 11983091Abstract: A system and method to adaptively generate a program model. Source code of a program to be tested for code issues, and a set of predefined patterns to be tested in the source code are received. Feature configuration data is generated by determining a set of features corresponding to the received set of predefined patterns. A set of program models is identified by selecting, for each feature in the set of features, a program model from among a plurality of program models that is optimized for the feature. A dynamic program model is built based on the identified set of program models, the dynamic program model being adapted to resolve each of the patterns included in the received set of predefined patterns. And the source code is tested for code issues by extracting from the dynamic program model instances of each of the set of predefined patterns.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2022Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: GitLab B.V.Inventors: Julian Thome, Isaac Dawson, James Johnson, Zach Rice, Daniel Searles, Lucas Charles, Mark Art, Taylor McCaslin, Thomas Woodham, Todd Stadelhofer

Publication number: 20240126542Abstract: A method or system for testing and benchmarking commits made on source code. The system extracts commits from a history of a first code history that records a sequence of commits made thereon. The extracted commits are then combined into a sequence of patches, each of which includes changes made during consecutive commits. The system also establishes a connection with a system under test (SUT) having a second code repository corresponding to a historical version of the first code repository before the extracted commits were made, and sequentially applies the sequence of the patches to the second code repository. Performance of the SUT is monitored during the application of the sequence of the patches to determine whether the SUT performs as expected after the application of each patch.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Julian Thome, James Johnson, Isaac Dawson, Dinesh Bolkensteyn, Michael Henriksen, Mark Art

Publication number: 20120230827Abstract: A method for repairing a wind turbine is described. The method may include preparing the surface of the blade, removing a plurality of mounting bolts, and replacing the mounting bolts with rod members. The rod members may be bonded to the blade root thereby strengthening the blade root and/or repairing any damaged or weakened regions. This repair may be performed on blades and blade coupling regions of various characteristics as well in modular fashion using pre-molded sections attached together around the blade root. The method of repair may be performed while the blade is still attached to the turbine hub. Wind turbines repaired according to these methods are also described. The method may also be used for attaching and otherwise handling new turbine blades and new wind turbines.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2012Publication date: September 13, 2012Applicant: FRONTIER PRO SERVICES, LLCInventors: Mark DAWSON, Jack WALLACE

Patent number: 8221078Abstract: Power and signals may be transmitted from a root portion of an extendable rotor blade to a moving tip portion using a slide block and a slide channel. The slide block is configured to fit within the slide channel and includes a conductive element that comes into contact with a conductive element of the slide channel. The tip portion may be attached to the slide block such that as the slide block moves along the slide channel, the tip portion is extended or retracted accordingly. The conductive elements may be fixed within each of the slide block and slide channel so that when the tip portion is retracted or extended, the conductive elements do not move.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2009Date of Patent: July 17, 2012Assignee: Frontier Wind, LLCInventors: Mark Dawson, Jack Wallace

Patent number: 8128361Abstract: A wind turbine may be controlled in a variety of manners to optimize operating parameters. In one arrangement, for example, the length or the pitch of a wind turbine rotor blade may be adjusted to avoid harmonic resonance frequencies. In another example, the length of a rotor blade may be modified to reduce noise or to optimize profits or both. The controls may be based on data from various types of sensors including accelerometers, sound meters, strain gauges and the like. Actuation of extendable rotor blades can rotate wind turbine rotors without wind or generator pulsing affording multiple advantages. A battery test control may also be used to determine the operational readiness of a battery useful for a variety of purposes in a turbine.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2008Date of Patent: March 6, 2012Assignee: Frontier Wind, LLCInventors: Mark Dawson, Jack Wallace
