The plurality of lightweight particles includes an average bulk density within a range from about 0.001 g/cc to about 1.5 g/cc and an average particle size within a range from about 0.01 microns to about 90 mm. Methods of manufacturing a lightweight composite composition are provided.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a first pillar and a second pillar spaced along a vehicle-longitudinal axis. The first pillar and the second pillar define a door opening therebetween. An airbag is above the door opening in an uninflated position and is inflatable across the door opening to an inflated position. A cable is above the door opening when the airbag is in the uninflated position. The cable extends across the door opening from the first pillar to the second pillar when the airbag is in the inflated position. A pyrotechnic retractor is below the airbag and the cable when the airbag is in the uninflated position. The pyrotechnic retractor is connected to the cable.

Abstract: A pump control system includes an additive pump, the additive pump being fluidly coupled to a component of a hydraulic fracturing system. The system also includes an additive container, the additive container configured to provide an additive to the additive pump via a flow path. The system further includes a diversion system, arranged within the flow path between the additive pump and the component of the hydraulic fracturing system, the diversion system configured to redirected at least a portion of additive directed toward the component of the hydraulic fracturing system. The system includes a calibration system configured to receive the redirected portion of the additive, the calibration system adapted to adjust one or more operational parameters of the additive pump responsive to an evaluation of a flow parameter of the redirected portion of the additive.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content providing, searching and/or hosting systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework for analyzing messages associated with an inbox of a user, and providing functionality to the inbox for alerting the user to specific forms of content included within each message. Such functionality can include displaying messages and/or the content contained therein in a novel, dedicated and modified and/or embedded portion of a message inbox. The messages can also be modified upon display within in the inbox to indicate that the message includes content of a specific type. Also, messages that include specific content types can also trigger the disclosed framework to generate and provide alerts to the user indicating the inbox has received or includes specific forms of such content.

Abstract: A system and method for receiving secure data in a client device. In one embodiment, the method comprises (a) receiving a token having a token ID and a digital certificate generated by a certificate authority (CA) having client device fingerprint data generated from client device parameters, (b) accepting a request in the client device to provide secure data to the client device, (c) regenerating the client device fingerprint data from the client device parameters, (d) determining, in the client device, differences between the client device fingerprint data of the digital certificate from the regenerated client device fingerprint data, and (e) transmitting a request to a secure data service to provide secure data based upon the determination.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing data and transmission of content are disclosed. A computing device may receive a request for content. The computing device may determine data associated with the requested content.

Abstract: A computer-based extended reality health system is adapted for electronically rendering patient sessions within an XR environment incorporating immersive scenes. The XR health system utilizes an XR device adapted for being employed by a patient to visually display the immersive scenes during a patient session within the XR environment. An input device is adapted for electronically interacting with objects, content and features visually displayed in the immersive scenes. A billing module is configured to extract claims data applicable for medical billing claims. The claims data includes billing information associated with the immersive scenes visually rendered to the patient during the patient session within the XR environment.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention relates to an insertion plate disposed on an external surface of a cannabis bucking machine configured to receive cannabis plants containing stems and buds. The insertion plate includes a top surface, a first angled surface, a second angled surface, and a bottom surface. One or more additional angled surfaces may also be included. The first angled surface includes a plurality of insertion recesses and the second angled surface includes a plurality of insertion channels. The insertion recesses and channels are substantially conically shaped to function as a funnel for receiving larger cannabis bunches. The unique correspondence between the angle of the surfaces and the shape of the recesses allows feeders to efficiently insert larger cannabis bunches and continue to feed as the bunches are levered down from the insertion recesses to the insertion channels.

Abstract: A solar array structure for a spacecraft includes one or a pair of flexible blanket or other foldable solar arrays (such as flexible panels) and a deployable frame structure. The deployable frame structure includes a T-shaped yoke structure, a T-shaped end structure, and one or more rigid beams, the T-shaped yoke structure connectable to the spacecraft. When deployed, the frame structure tensions the flexible blanket solar array or arrays between the T-shaped yoke structure and the T-shaped end structure. When stowed, the flexible blanket solar array or arrays are folded in an accordion manner to form a stowed pack or packs between the cross-member arms of the T-shaped yoke structure and the T-shaped end structure, also stowed in its own Z-fold arrangement. The cross-member arms of the T-shaped end structure can include a solar array that can provide power before deployment while the flexible blanket solar array is stowed.

Abstract: A fixing device for clamping a tissue including a clamp mechanism for closing a tissue, a support mechanism for carrying the clamp mechanism, the support mechanism including a drive assembly for driving the clamp mechanism to open and close; a delivery control device including a push shaft for pushing the fixing device and a mechanism for enabling the push shaft and the fixing device to be separably connected, the clamp mechanism includes a pair of closure members, a guide slot including at least a nonlinear segment in each of the pair of closure members, a pin slidable in each guide slot to drive ends of closure clamping portions of the closure members to move towards or away from each other.
