Abstract: A method of controlling a horizontal directional drill having a rotary drive system. The rotary drive system includes a variable displacement pump providing pressurized fluid to a motor, a displacement control that adjusts motor displacement, a torque limiter valve that opens at a torque limit to provide pressurized fluid to the displacement control to allow the system to limit torque, and cross-port relief valves that open at a cross-port relief pressure to limit pressure applied across a motor inlet and a motor outlet. The method includes adjusting the torque limiter pressure to vary the maximum torque applied to a drill string based on operating parameters of the horizontal direction drill, and adjusting the cross-port relief pressure to be higher than the torque limiter pressure each time that the torque limiter pressure is adjusted.

Abstract: The systems/methods analyze the vast reservoir of data that is collected in-flight during a commercial aircraft's travels over several months. That data is analyzed to identify and remove data points that do not represent stable cruise. This may be achieved in multiple steps to manage the extremely large data sets. The data points, now representing stable cruise, are further analyzed to identify control surfaces that are out-of-tolerance (i.e., mis-rigged). That information is subsequently utilized to re-rig the identified mis-rigged control surfaces which, in turn, results in increased aircraft fuel efficiencies.

Abstract: The double layer capacitance of a working electrode of a sensor may be measured with minimal disruption to the sensor equilibrium by open circuiting the working electrode and measuring the voltage drift on a periodic, or as-needed, basis. The values of the double layer capacitance may be monitored over time to determine, e.g., sensor age and condition.

Abstract: Methods and systems for forecasting demand for a plurality of items are provided. In particular, the demand forecasting system and methods described herein are useful for predicting demand of products in a retail context. Forecast models are built and used to score incoming sales data to predict future demand for items. Forecast models are validated by evaluating actual demand against predicted demand and using that information to inform how future ensemble forecast will be generated. Forecasts may be broken down into smaller components to satisfy a variety of requests for data from client applications.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to automated pairing of customers and businesses. A computing platform may determine, based on historical user activity of a user, a pattern of the user activity, and may identify, based on the pattern of the user activity, an anticipated purchase activity of the user. Then, the computing platform may determine a sales offering by a vendor. Then, the computing platform may match the anticipated purchase activity with the sales offering. Then, the computing platform may retrieve user-defined preference rules associated with the anticipated purchase activity. Then, the computing platform may determine whether the preference rules apply to one or more attributes of the anticipated purchase activity. Subsequently, the computing platform may trigger, based on a determination that the preference rules apply to the one or more attributes of the anticipated purchase activity, an action associated with the anticipated purchase activity.

Abstract: Systems and methods to track an object within an operating room with a camera unit. The camera unit includes a first optical sensor with sensing elements to sense light in a near-infrared spectrum and a second optical sensor to sense light in a visible light spectrum. A controller is in communication with the first and second optical sensors. The controller obtains, from the second optical sensor, data related to the object within the operating room. The controller modifies control of the sensing elements of the first optical sensor based on the data of the object obtained by the second optical sensor.

The set of key combinations is actuated to move the plurality of fibers from the first assembly to the second assembly and order the plurality of fibers in the second assembly in the predetermined sequence.

Abstract: A catalogue system automatically detects changes to configuration file at a service application. Based on the changes to the configuration file(s), the catalogue system stores mapping data that identifies a resource item type that can be processed by the service application and one or more user actions that are available for processing resource items of the resource item type. The techniques thus provide for dynamic interaction with service applications.
