Abstract: A disinfecting tracking network for creating healthier environments. The system and methods for tracking and utilizing this information to build and maintain healthier environments with a laboratory approach to data inputs. This system is a cloud based system with IOT interface and APIs to enable broad reaching inputs for analysis. This system creates a safer ecosystem and cross statistic sharing of performance parameters.

Abstract: A disinfection platform for at least partially disinfecting a proximal surface is provided. A disinfection apparatus includes a housing defining an aperture, a UV light source enclosed in the housing configured to project a UV illumination pattern toward a target disinfection area where the disinfection apparatus is disposed above one end and oriented at a downward angle. The illumination pattern output from the disinfection apparatus at least partially defined by louvers and an occlusion nose with reflective fins positioned at the aperture such that the illumination pattern at the target disinfection surface has improved intensity distribution. Multiple sensors cooperate with a control circuit operating the UV light source to provide intelligent and automated control with pattern detection, event based disinfection, and validation.

Abstract: A method and system are described for creating subsurface models that accounts for pore type influences. The method includes identifying pore types and properties based on pore types, constructing a subsurface model for a subsurface region and using the subsurface model in simulations and in hydrocarbon operations, such as hydrocarbon exploration, hydrocarbon development, and/or hydrocarbon production.

Abstract: A method and system are described for creating subsurface models that accounts for non-matrix features. The method includes identifying non-matrix attributes and non-matrix effective properties, constructing a subsurface model for a subsurface region and using the subsurface model in simulations and in hydrocarbon operations, such as hydrocarbon exploration, hydrocarbon development, and/or hydrocarbon production.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for monitoring pressure between the surface of a body part and a contact surface employ a plurality of pressure sensors disposed in a matrix array between the contact surface and the body part. The sensors produce analog force signals proportional to pressure, and a monitor receives the analog signals and produces output signals, preferably digital, having pressure data corresponding to the pressure at each sensor. A computer processor receives the output signals from the monitor to create a force profile for the sensor array. The sensors may be scanned as a read event in variety of manners, including periodic, continuous and triggered scanning. Where triggered scanning is desired, one or more switches act to initiate a read event. This monitoring apparatus and method is used, for example, to fit prosthetics, to monitor bed-ridden and wheelchair-bound patients, to reduce pain and sores caused by uneven distribution of pressure and to monitor pressure between a cast and a person.

Abstract: A crop divider attachment for a harvester which includes a fixed upright divider extending forwardly from the conventional divider wall at the sides of a transverse frame. A lightweight snout 18 projects forwardly from the fixed divider and has side surfaces which overlap it. The snout 18 is pivotally connected at the forward end of the fixed divider adjacent to the ground surface. It swings beneath a fixed chimney on the stationary divider with minimum physical clearance in which crops might become engaged. Side deflectors shift the disentangled crop toward the center of the header. The snout floats freely, and its downward movement is limited by a flexible length of chain.
