Abstract: A method is presented for altering a portion of a substrate. The method includes providing a first device including an outer surface and a second device including a source of vibration energy. The method also includes forming a nip between the source of vibration energy and the outer surface. The method also includes conveying the substrate through the nip and intermittently altering the portion of the substrate in the nip to create a pattern of altered areas forming a shape. The altered areas have a pattern balance that includes one or more of: an average area of the substrate altered in the nip is within a threshold range across the portion of the substrate; and a simple area of integral areas within the altered areas is within a threshold range across the portion of the substrate.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a modular process plant structural system which includes numerous modules, all ISO-certified under ISO 1496 and capable of holding within the entire module at least one chemical (or non-chemical) production plant piece of equipment, capable of individually being shipped or transported. The modules can be stacked vertically, horizontally, or mixed (both vertical and horizontal arrangement). The modules are pre-fabricated offsite, built with the desired equipment within the module, pre-plumbed with piping, instrumentation, and electrical wiring, and then the multiple modules are shipped multimodally as ISO 1496 containers to the desired location and assembled to form a plant. Generally, two or more modules are connected together to form a complete plant. The plant can be of any type, e.g., chemical, mechanical/production, thermal, and the like, or of any size, e.g., production, small, micro, or pilot plant scale.

Abstract: Data security may be automatically evaluated and adjusted using machine learning and/or satisfiability modulo theories (SMT). In various examples, a machine learning model(s) may be trained using training data that includes samples of customer data labeled with different types of data corresponding to different sensitivity levels of the samples of the customer data. Once trained, this trained machine learning model(s) can be used to classify data that is, or is requested to be, stored in a storage container. A SMT solver(s) may then evaluate the sufficiency of the existing data security (e.g., an existing access policy) of the storage container. Based on the result of the SMT solver's data security evaluation, an action(s) may be taken, such as a remedial action (e.g., adjusting data security of the storage container), a notification action (e.g., sending an alert about the data security deficiency), or the like.

Abstract: A portable motorized racking device and system are disclosed for remotely racking (inserting or removing) drawout circuit breakers. The racking device provides a portable, motorized device that can be hand carried to a work location and affixed to the circuit breaker without the need of any modification to the breaker or its enclosure. In one embodiment, among others, the torque that is required to operate the breaker racking mechanism is provided by an electrically powered gearmotor. Attached to the output shaft of the gearmotor is a socket that engages the circuit breaker racking screw. An anti-rotation plate engages a feature, such as a bolt head, opening, hole, or edge, on the racking screw support frame or the breaker face to prevent the gearmotor from rotating while the socket rotates the racking screw.

Abstract: A forwarding engine of a fleet of forwarding engines forwards packets received from outside a provider network via a direct physical link to a resource within the provider network. A virtual router of a fleet of virtual routers obtains routing metadata from a client-side networking device outside the provider network via a routing information exchange protocol and transmits the routing metadata to the forwarding engine, which uses the metadata to forward the packets. In response to a first trigger, the number of forwarding engines in the fleet is modified. In response to a second trigger, the number of virtual routers in the fleet is modified.

Abstract: A mounting device enables detachable mounting of equipment against a face of a motor control center (MCC) unit. The face of the MCC unit has a plurality of protruding ports and an operating switch extending outwardly from the face. The protruding ports are designed to enable installation and removal of the MCC unit from a housing. The operating switch is designed to enable switching of electrical power within the MCC unit. The mounting device has a plate or bracket, a mechanism for attaching and un-attaching the plate or bracket to at least one of the protruding ports, and screw holes or other features to enable mounting of equipment to enable the equipment to engage the protruding ports, the operating switch, or both.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for racking a draw-out circuit breaker. A portable motorized racking device may be connected or disconnected from an racking assembly of the circuit breaker. The portable racking device includes a gearmotor, a drive socket for engaging with the racking screw of the circuit breaker, and a locking disk for securing the portable racking device to the racking assembly of the circuit breaker. The gearmotor may be remotely controlled to rack the draw-out circuit breaker.

Abstract: A connectivity manager (CM) of a provider network establishes a plurality of ERGs (edge resource groups), each comprising at least an edge router and a network marker translation agent (NMTA). The CM selects a particular ERG to be used for network traffic between a first set of resources of a virtual computing service of the provider network and a second set of resources outside the provider network. To enable connectivity between the first and second set of resources, the CM initiate propagation of (a) routing metadata to an edge router of the particular ERG and/or (b) a network marker mapping entry to an NMTA of the particular ERG.

Abstract: A portable actuator system enables the remote operation of electrical disconnect switches with a portable actuator device that is temporarily installed at the disconnect switch location. An embodiment, among others, of the portable actuator device has an electric motor having a drive shaft that can be controlled to rotate about a longitudinal axis. The actuator device also has elongated movable first and second arms that are controlled by the drive shaft. The first arm engages and moves the disconnect handle in a first rotational direction so that the disconnect handle is switched to the open position. The second arm engages and moves the disconnect handle in a second rotational direction so that the disconnect handle is switched to the closed position.

At least two of the habitat units have different functional components from one another.

Abstract: Leveraging an established authenticated session in obtaining authentication to a client application includes receiving a request for access to a client application requiring authentication of a requestor and determining whether there exist characteristics of leverageable authentications corresponding to established sessions having an authenticated state at a time of the determination. When the determination reveals characteristics of at least one leverageable authentication corresponding to an established session, and attempt is made to obtain access for the requestor to the client application based on the at least one leverageable authentication, and the requestor is provided with a notification related to the 1 attempt to obtain access for the requestor to the client application.

Abstract: A rod clip stand is disclosed which is configured to releasably secure and retain a pair of rods in a perpendicular orientation. The rod clip stand has a cradle portion supporting a first rod and an arched portion supporting a second rod. The rod clip stand is particularly well suited for fabricating a rebar grid used to reinforce concrete flatwork.

Abstract: The disclosed invention generally pertains to a collapsible sign having an open arm span that is substantially larger than that of the closed arm span, thus allowing the open frame to hold a much larger sign face than the closed frame. The face of the sign can be made to collapse as well thus further reducing the over-all size of the stored sign. Among other uses, the Ninja Sign is great for residential and commercial real estate agents, and it is not limited to outdoor applications.
