Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a knitting method and device based on a knitting pattern in which front, left-sleeve, right-sleeve and rear-shoulder pieces are integrally connected. The method includes: collecting a knitting pattern graphic or instruction; receiving pattern information sent by a data collection module to determine the knitting type, and defining the knitting start position, the knitting direction, the knitting point position and the stitching path of different knitting types; wherein, a control module controls a driving module such that a knitting needle knits in a V-shaped path, a horizontal path or a vertical path; and when the knitting needle moves to a panel border position or a reversing position, a state monitoring module sends information to the control module, and the driving module adjusts the knitting action until the knitting operation on a target knitting panel is completed.

Abstract: A computer-based method for asynchronously requesting content items to a user computing device is described. The method is implemented using a user computing device in communication with a memory. The method includes receiving a content management response, generating a plurality of content request messages for requesting at least one content item from a plurality of content providers based on the plurality of links, asynchronously transmitting a first content request message to a first content provider and a second content request message to a second content provider where the first and second content request messages are transmitted based on the at least one transmission rule, receiving a content response message including a content item from at least one of the first and the second content provider, determining the content item to display on the user computing device, and displaying the determined online content item on the user computing device.

Abstract: An example method includes: receiving data from a first computing device indicating that a visitor to a Web page has obtained a good or service; removing the visitor from a first audience segment corresponding to the good or service, where computing devices associated with members of the first audience segment store a first cookie, where the first cookie includes data indicating an interest in a good or service associated with the first audience segment; and instructing removal of the first cookie from a second computing device that the visitor used to visit the Web page, where the first cookie includes data stored on the second computing device indicating that the visitor has an interest in the good or service. The method also includes outputting a second cookie for storage on the second computing device. The second cookie includes data indicating that the visitor has obtained the good or service.

Abstract: There is provided a removable chromatic witness assembly, system, and method to monitor thermal events and impact events on a surface of a composite structure. The removable chromatic witness assembly has a plurality of chromatic witness geometric configurations separately coupled in an arrangement to one or more portions of a polymeric film layer. Each chromatic witness geometric configuration has a plurality of chromatic probes of a same type incorporated into an adhesive material. At least two of the geometric configurations have a different type of chromatic probes with a different sensing capability for thermal events and impact events on the composite structure. The polymeric film layer and the geometric configurations form the removable chromatic witness assembly in a form of a removable chromatic witness applique configured to be removably applied directly and continuously to the surface of the composite structure, and configured to monitor the thermal and impact events.

Abstract: Improved methods of detecting thermal exposure are provided herein. The provided methods utilize initially dormant luminescent probes incorporated into a matrix to form a composite. When exposed to heat over a period of time, the luminescent probes are “activated” through a molecular transformation initiated by thermal energy. The activated probes exhibit a luminescent profile based on the extent of thermal exposure, thereby providing an indicator of the thermal exposure experienced by the matrix. When the composite is used to produce a structural component of a vehicle (e.g., an aircraft), the methods provide a convenient, large-area indicator of thermal damage experienced by the structural component.

Abstract: Scrubber media for reactive gases, that can include but are not necessarily limited to hydrogen chloride (HCl), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), hydrogen fluoride (HF), and ammonia (NH3), can include reactive particles, potentially as small as nano-scale, that can optionally be suspended on macro-scale carrier particles. Reactive gases can be converted to non-volatile compounds by being passed through a bed of such scrubber media. Such scrubber media can be used to remove reactive gases from gas mixtures. Potential applications include differential absorption spectroscopy, air pollutant emission controls, and the like. Methods of preparing scrubber media are also described.
