Abstract: A module that is useful for receiving stormwater when buried in permeable media comprises a base from which a plurality of columns extends upwardly, to support two or more different-elevation horizontal plates. Each plate has a plurality of holes, through each of which a column extends. The plates are secured to the columns at their respective elevations by self-acting engaging means comprising a latch, e.g. a peg extending radially from the column, and a mating receiver, e.g., an elastically deflectable plate having a hole that receives the peg. The angular orientation around the column of the self-acting engaging means varies with the plate elevation, so that for example, the first plate is only engageable at the first elevation and the second plate is only engageable at the second elevation. A module is assembled by lifting or lowering each plate along the column lengths until the plate becomes automatically engaged at the particular plate's predetermined elevation.

Abstract: A communication system for processing a call includes control logic and at least one machine learning model generating call classifiers from outputs of an audio signal processor and a natural language processor operated on the call. Heuristic logic transforms the call classifiers into weighted sub-metrics for the call, and aggregate normalized Gaussian logic transforms the weighted sub-metrics into a metric control that may be applied as a feedback signal to adapt the operation of the control logic. The control logic in turn may adapt the behavior of an agent, automated voice attendant, or a template utilized in a call flow.

Abstract: An exercise apparatus includes a linear arm portion having an elongate arm member with proximal and distal ends and an elongate support member having proximal and distal ends. The arm member can be slidably mounted to the support member by a sliding joint positioned at the distal end of the support member. The arm member can be movable along a first axis between retracted and extended positions. The sliding joint can include first and second bearing assemblies which are spaced apart a sufficient distance from each other for constraining portions of the arm member within the sliding joint. The proximal end of the arm member that overlaps with the support member outside of the sliding joint when in retracted positions can be capable of some unconstrained lateral movement relative to the first axis. A linear arm brake assembly can be coupled to the arm member for resisting linear motion of the arm member.

Abstract: Power management system for battery-operated vehicle including electric motor, and kinetic energy devices for capturing kinetic friction energy produced by moving parts in the vehicle. A central direct current (DC) supercharge component (CDCSC) converts kinetic friction energy into an electric current. The CDCSC connects to a current toggle that directs electric current to battery packs i.e., a first battery pack and second battery pack for powering the electric motor. The current toggle directs electric current to battery packs to recharge/store power. The power management system governs power output from the battery packs, manages depletion/efficiency of the battery packs. The power management system includes a parallel port that directs outgoing power feeds from the battery packs to the electric motor. The electric motor connects to a drive shaft of the vehicle. The power management system includes an additional battery pack that stores excess kinetic friction energy captured for external transfer.
