Abstract: A system and method of item tracking and providing real-time feedback while one or more items are moved from one location to another location during a moving session. The system and method generate alerts to the user, allow for remote monitoring of the session by others, record the location of where the item was placed to help prevent loss or misplacement of the item. The system and method described herein enable for moving (or loading) sessions to be more efficient, reduce losses, increase safety, and raise alerts when certain thresholds are met or exceeded while items are moved to enable action to be taken in response to such alert.

Abstract: The presently disclosed subject matter relates to isolated compositions and methods for treating and/or preventing sepsis and inflammatory conditions, such as Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). In some embodiments, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to endothelial progenitor cell-derived exosomes to treat and/or prevent sepsis and inflammatory conditions, such as Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The endothelial progenitor cell-derived exosomes can be modified to overexpress one or more miRNAs.

Abstract: There is provided a system and method for processing and storage of a time-series data stream. The method including: separating an input time-series data stream into a value array and a time array; segmenting the value array into blocks, each block including a plurality of consecutive values; performing iterations of delta encoding on the values in each block; organizing multiple delta encoded blocks in an output file structure, the output file structure further comprising the time array associated with the values in the block and a block header, the block header including: the number of values in the block; initial values for the delta encoding; and the number of iterations of delta encoding applied on the block; and outputting the multiple blocks in the output file structure.

Abstract: An elevator car door control system includes a clutch and an interlock assembly. The clutch may include a stationary base and a slidable base movably attached to the stationary base. The stationary base may be adapted for attachment to a car door of an elevator car. The interlock assembly may include a locking arm operatively connected to the slidable base of the clutch and moveable from a locked position preventing translation relative to the elevator car to an unlocked position. When the car door is in a closed position, a door opening sequence may commence causing the slidable base to move relative to the car door, but the car door will only open if the slidable base presses against an object, such as a roller on a hoistway door, in which case the locking arm of the interlock assembly moves from the locked to the unlocked position.

Abstract: A method for replacing parts of an elevator door assembly including installing a hanger mount in an opening of the elevator door hanger, positioning a roller assembly on one side of the elevator door hanger, the roller assembly being configured to receive an engaging member, positioning a leveling cam on another side of the elevator door hanger, the leveling cam configured for sliding contact with a bearing surface of the hanger mount and having a first surface, a second surface, an opening between the first surface and the second surface, and a third surface for contacting the bearing surface, and inserting the engaging member through an opening of the hanger mount and the opening of the leveling cam, and securing the engaging member within the roller assembly.

Abstract: A multimode clutch assembly is positioned in a powertrain of a rotorcraft. The clutch assembly includes a freewheeling unit having a driving mode in which torque applied to the input race is transferred to the output race and an overrunning mode in which torque applied to the output race is not transferred to the input race. A bypass assembly has an engaged position that couples the input and output races of the freewheeling unit. An actuator assembly shifts the bypass assembly between engaged and disengaged positions. An engagement status sensor is configured to determine the engagement status of the bypass assembly. In the disengaged position, the overrunning mode of the freewheeling unit is enabled such that the clutch assembly is configured for unidirectional torque transfer. In the engaged position, the overrunning mode of the freewheeling unit is disabled such that the clutch assembly is configured for bidirectional torque transfer.
