Abstract: A system, method and computer-readable storage medium are disclosed herein. The system includes one or more servers, one or more processors and a memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations. The operations include receiving data and information associated with a user, and executing a first ML algorithm to select which other ML algorithm to execute to determine a value profile associated with a collateral asset. Additional ML algorithms are executed to generate a collateral profile associated with the collateral asset, an activity profile associated with a user, and a household profile associated with the user. Data from among the profiles is combined to generate a digital asset, and advanced analytics are applied to the digital asset, in connection with rules and policies, to identify a user-specific product offering. The user-specific product offering is communicated to the user.

Abstract: An industrial CAD system is supplemented with features that allow a developer to easily convert a mechanical CAD model of an automation system to a dynamic digital twin capable of simulation within a simulation platform, including simulation of fluid dynamics throughout the system. The features allow the user to label selected elements of a mechanical CAD drawing with “aspects” within the CAD environment, and to add fluid models representing fluids that travel through or are processed by the system. Based on these aspect labels and fluid models, the CAD platform transforms the mechanical CAD model into a dynamic digital twin that can be exported to a simulation and testing platform to facilitate simulation of both machine operation and fluid dynamics.

Abstract: A machine for making carpeting in which rows of lengths of yarn are bonded to an adhesive surface of a backing web has a gripper station at which yarn ends are presented in a row and are drawn out a predetermined distance, the drawn length of yarn being engaged to support them and then cut off. The cut lengths are then transferred to an assembly station where they are placed on the adhesive surface of the backing. The yarn lengths are pressed against the adhesive surface by a bladed member. The means engaging the drawn yarn lengths to support them comprises, in a preferred version, a bar extending along one side of the row of yarn ends and provided with a multiplicity of pins for impaling the yarn lengths, and a bar on the other side of the row with holes corresponding to the pins for pressing the yarn lengths on to the pins.
