Abstract: A passenger compartment of the modular vehicle, such as a bus, includes a roof panel and sandwich-type side panels coupled to structural joiners to form the passenger compartment. The side panels and the joiners may include pultruded beams for increased structural integrity. A chassis of the vehicle has channels integrated therein for coupling of the side panels and passenger compartment to the chassis. This coupling to the chassis channel may also include the use of a bonding agent.

Abstract: A structural joiner including one or more box beams disposed between inner and outer arcuate surfaces and methods of assembling are described. The extrusions delineate various channels for structural considerations. In an implementation, the joiner may be implemented on a multi-passenger vehicle, such as a bus.

Abstract: A panel construction including one or more pultruded box beams disposed between first and second outer sheets at selected locations. A core or filler material may also be disposed between the first and second outer sheets at selected locations. For example, the core material may be disposed between the first and second outer sheets and fill in the space between the box beams. In another example, the core material may include channels or recesses and the box beams may be positioned in the channels or recesses in the core material.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for analyzing clauses of business documents of an enterprise may include steps of providing a database and storing a plurality of business documents used by the enterprise in the database. Each of the plurality of business document stored in the database may include a plurality of clauses, and each of the plurality of clauses may be associated with a plurality of clause attributes and a clause attribute value for each of the plurality of clause attributes. The method may include steps of prompting for a value of at least one of the clause attributes; obtaining at least one value for the prompted clause attributes and querying the database to identify all occurrences of clauses used in at least one of the stored business documents whose clause attribute values match each obtained value for the prompted clause attributes. A business document clause analysis report may then be generated that includes each identified matching clause occurrence.
