Abstract: A bearing for disposition between a housing and a rotating member, the bearing including: at least one leaf spring element that provides a biasing force in a Y direction; where the bearing has a first stiffness, S1, in the Y direction and a second stiffness, S2, in an X direction perpendicular to the Y direction, where S2?S1, and where the bearing includes a metal substrate and a low friction layer overlying at least one surface of the substrate and adapted to contact the rotating member.

Abstract: Systems and methods include providing a tolerance ring with a friction enhancement feature on at least one surface of the tolerance ring to increase at least one friction-related property of the tolerance ring. The friction enhancement feature provides the tolerance ring with an increased retention force while providing an optimum radial force that allows a component secured by the tolerance ring to move freely while reducing or altogether preventing axial movement of the component.

Abstract: Examples associated with display mapping are described. One example system includes a display mapping module. The display mapping module maps display components connected to the system to virtual channels to which the system is subscribed. A communication module transmits a content instruction to subscribers of a virtual channel. The instruction controls the subscribers of the virtual channel to display content associated with the content instruction on display components the respective subscribers have mapped to the virtual channel. A display module causes a display component mapped to the virtual channel to display content associated with the content instruction.

Abstract: Systems and methods for human scanning for interior preference setup are disclosed. An example disclosed vehicle includes a target lamp on a side view mirror of the vehicle. The example vehicle also includes a scanning module. Additionally, the example vehicle includes an active scanning system configured to instruct the target lamp to project a position indicator a known distance from the vehicle, determine a joint structure based on an image of a person standing at the position indicator received from the scanning module, and adjust interior preference settings based on the detected joint structure.

Abstract: A pickup truck including a truck bed, a truck box, a storage tank, and a water filtration system is provided. The truck box is mounted to the truck bed and defines a cavity. The storage tank has a valve arranged to control release of liquid received within the cavity into the storage tank. The water filtration system is disposed between, and in fluid communication with, the cavity and storage tank. Walls of the storage tank may be defined by a bumper. The water filtration system may include a strainer at a pass-through open to the cavity and a filter downstream of the pass-through. An air relief valve may be open to the storage tank. The storage tank may be mounted at a location on the truck adjacent a rear bumper of the truck.

Abstract: A system for providing storage on a vehicle roof is provided. The system comprises at least one partially hollow pillar for supporting the vehicle roof, a rail adapted to being raised and lowered relative to the vehicle roof between a deployed position for receiving cargo and a non-deployed position. An actuator is positioned at least partially along or within the at least one pillar for moving the rail relative to the roof. The actuator may comprise a pinion and a rack providing support for the rail. One or more supports may be connected to the rail for sliding as the rail is raised and lowered, including an active support for raising and lowering the rail in response to actuation. One or more passive supports for the rail may be slidably received in different pillars from the active support.

Abstract: A system and method for performing stimulation operations at a wellsite having a subterranean formation with of a reservoir therein is provided. The method involves generating a plurality of quality indicators from a plurality of logs, and combining the plurality of quality indicators to form a composite quality indicator. The plurality of stress blocks may then be merged using diversion criterion. The composite quality indicator may be combined with the merged stress blocks to form a combined stress and composite quality indicator, the combined stress and composite quality indicator comprising a plurality of blocks with boundaries therebetween. The method may further comprise defining stages along the combined stress and composite quality indicator based on the diverter-assisted stage classifications; and selectively positioning perforations in select stages based on the diverter-assisted stage classifications thereon.

Abstract: A method of heterogeneous proppant placement in a subterranean fracture is disclosed. The method comprises injecting well treatment fluid including proppant (16) and proppant-spacing filler material (18) through a wellbore (10) into the fracture (20), heterogeneously placing the proppant in the fracture in a plurality of proppant clusters or islands (22) spaced apart by the material (24), and removing the filler material (24) to form open channels (26) around the pillars (28). The filler material can be dissolvable particles, initially acting as a consolidator during placement of the proppant in the fracture, and later dissolving to leave flow channels between the proppant pillars. The well treatment fluid can include extrametrical materials to provide reinforcement and consolidation of the proppant and, additionally or alternatively, to inhibit settling of the proppant in the treatment fluid.
