Abstract: The present invention describes systems and methods for providing a resilient bidirectional charging infrastructure, including a plurality of smart poles connected in a circuit and a processor configured to cause the at least one of the plurality of smart poles to receive electricity from an electric vehicle based on an actual or predicted loss of electricity within the circuit. The plurality of smart poles is configured to provide at least part of a powered network, such as a 5G network, and at least one of the plurality of smart poles has an interface for receiving electricity from an electric vehicle.

Abstract: A barrier system is used to direct and block a travel path of pedestrians and vehicles. The barriers may be shaped substantially as a truncated pyramid with a base surface and planar sides extending from the edges of the base surface to a top portion, where the cross-sectional area of the base surface is larger than the cross-sectional area of the top portion. The angles of inclination between the planar sides and the interior of the base surface are acute angles. The bollard can be cast from heavy dense materials. The bollard includes at least two overhanging lips on the planar sides of the barrier between the base surface and the top portion. The configurations of the bollards provide improved placement, such as with cranes, hand carts, and other devices. Molds to cast the barriers and hand carts to move the barriers are also disclosed.

Abstract: Provided is a power management system of an aircraft ground support vehicle. The power management system includes a power production control module in communication with a fuel cell system of the aircraft ground support vehicle to control production of electrical power by the fuel cell system. The fuel cell system may be configured as a sole source of power to directly power a traction system of the aircraft ground support vehicle and to provide electrical power to an auxiliary power output of the aircraft ground support vehicle. The power management system further includes a power distribution control module in communication with the fuel cell system to control distribution of the electrical power between the traction system and the auxiliary power output. The aircraft ground support vehicle may include a chassis, the traction system, the auxiliary power output, the fuel cell system, and the power management system.
