Abstract: A data pool receives first data derived from user-generated input that identifies events that have occurred at the corresponding remote first computing system. Thereafter, the data pool generates messages based on the identified events that specify data to be extracted from each of a plurality of data sources. The data pool then transmits data comprising the generated messages to at least one of a plurality of data daemons. The data pool subsequently receives second data extracted and processed by the data daemons in response to the transmitted data. In addition, the data pool transmits at least a portion of the received second data to at least one remote second computing system to enable the remote second computing system to render visualizations that are based on the received data and which are displayed within at least one data lens that overlays a substrate in the graphical user interface.

Abstract: A method for inhibiting oxygen and moisture degradation of a device and the resulting device are described herein. To inhibit the oxygen and moisture degradation of the device, a low liquidus temperature (LLT) material which typically has a low low liquidus temperature (or in specific embodiments a low glass transition temperature) is used to form a barrier layer on the device. The LLT material can be, for example, tin fluorophosphate glass, chalcogenide glass, tellurite glass and borate glass. The LLT material can be deposited onto the device by, for example, sputtering, evaporation, laser-ablation, spraying, pouring, frit-deposition, vapor-deposition, dip-coating, painting or rolling, spin-coating or any combination thereof. Defects in the LLT material from the deposition step can be removed by a consolidation step (heat treatment), to produce a pore-free, gas and moisture impenetrable protective coating on the device. Although many of the deposition methods are possible with common glasses (i.e.

The flow-level select and shut-off valve includes a first fuel inlet, a second fuel inlet, a return-to-tank fuel outlet, and a valve element movable between a shut-off position, a mid-flow position, and a max-flow position. The servo control valve is coupled to the flow-level select and shut-off valve and is configured to control relative fluid pressures therein to selectively move the valve element to the shut-off position, the mid-flow position, and the max-flow position.

Abstract: Methods and devices to measure voltage margins of electromechanical devices are disclosed. The voltage margins are determined based on responses to test voltages which cause the devices to change states. State changes of the devices are detected by monitoring integrated current or charge used to drive the devices with the test voltages.

Abstract: A ceramic precursor batch composition comprising inorganic ceramic-forming ingredients, a binder, an aqueous solvent and a heteroatom polyol agent. The heteroatom polyol agent can be represented by X(R) where X is at least one of S, N, and P, and R is at least two of CH3, CH2CH2OH, CH2CH2CH2OH, CH2(CHOH)CH3, C(CH2OH)1-3, CH2OH, CH(CH2OH)CHOH, C(O)(CHOH)1-4CH2OH, and CH2CH2CH2OCH3. The presence of the heteroatom polyol agent provides a composition with a lower viscosity and/or a greater batch stiffening temperature (Tonset) allowing for increased rates of extrusion. Methods for producing a ceramic honeycomb body using this ceramic precursor batch composition are also provided.

Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods for generating marketplace listings using a camera enabled mobile device are described in which a request is received via a camera enabled mobile device to list one or more sale items. An image taken by the camera enable mobile device and depicting the one or more sale items is received. Image recognition is performed on the received image to identify the one or more sale items. Based on the identification of the one or more sale items depicted in the image, a set of descriptive data is automatically generated. The one or more sale items are listed on a marketplace using the image and the automatically generated set of descriptive data.

Abstract: An impeller, a centrifugal pump, and an aircraft fuel system are provided. The impeller includes a central hub disposed along a rotational axis of the impeller and that defines an axial bore extending through at least a portion of the central hub along the rotational axis. The central hub further defines an opening to the axial bore at a leading end of the central hub. The impeller further includes an impeller section spaced from the leading end and that includes at least one impeller vane fixed to the central hub. The impeller further includes an inducer section that is disposed between the leading end of the central hub and the impeller section and that includes at least one inducer vane extending along an outer surface of the central hub. The central hub defines at least one radial aperture in the inducer section in fluid communication with the axial bore.

Abstract: A pumping apparatus includes a gear pump in fluid communication with a boost pump. The gear pump includes a pump housing, a first gear, and a second gear. The first and second gear have gear teeth and trunnions on opposite sides thereof, and are disposed in the pump housing. The gear teeth of the first and second gear are meshed in a mesh region. An inlet cavity is defined adjacent to the first and second gear, on one side of the mesh region. A pump outlet is defined on an opposite side of the mesh region from the inlet cavity. A bearing is configured to support at least one trunnion of the first gear and/or the second gear. A bearing interface is defined between the bearing and the at least one trunnion. A flow path is defined between the bearing interface and the inlet cavity.
