Abstract: A floor and an upright sidewall formed from two vertically coaxial components, each component having a floor baffle with a plurality of floor openings defined therein, each floor retained within a respective upright sidewall with a plurality of sidewall openings defined therein. The floor openings and the sidewall openings cooperate between the two coaxial components such that flow of gases through the floor and upright sidewall of the baffle structure is controlled by rotation of the two vertically coaxial components relative to one another.

Abstract: A group of state-action history entries may be determined from state-action history entries stored in a database. A state-action history entry may represent an experienced operational scenario. A state-action history entry may be associated with a feature. The group of state-action history entries may be determined based on a similarity of the feature. A parameter may be generated based on the group of state-action history entries. The parameter may represent a probability associated with experienced operational scenarios that are similar to one another. A model may be generated based on the parameter. The model may be configured for use in an operational scenario that is similar to the experienced operational scenarios when traversing a portion of the vehicle transportation network.

Abstract: A tarp deploying apparatus includes a frame assembly that is adapted for being attached to a lifting device, such as a forklift. A roller assembly extends laterally from the frame assembly. A tarp may be loaded onto the roller assembly by rolling the tarp onto a roller body. The tarp may be deployed in a desired position on a load of cargo on a flatbed trailer. The tarp is deployed on the cargo by driving the forklift alongside of the flatbed trailer and allowing the tarp to unroll off the roller body being pulled off the roller body by the weight and friction of the tarp on the load. The roller body may include hooks that help in loading the tarp onto the roller body, and allow the tarp to automatically fall off of the roller body during deployment.
