Abstract: Persistent storage may contain definitions of: configuration items (CIs) each having attributes that characterize a respective hardware or software component, a list of data sources used to update at least some of the CIs, and an auto-attestation time period; and one or more processors configured to: identify a plurality of the CIs for auto-attestation; for each respective CI, determine a respective condition of whether: (i) a data-source attribute of the respective CI indicates that it was updated by a trusted data source, and (ii) a most-recent-update attribute of the respective CI indicates that it was updated within the auto-attestation time period; and mark each respective CI based on its respective condition, wherein the respective CI is marked as auto-attested when its respective condition is true, and wherein the respective CI is marked as not auto-attested when its respective condition is false.

Abstract: An enhanced low noise relief valve renders the anodizing processing irrelevant to the low leakage nature of the valve member based on the tolerance between the tube portion of the valve member and the inlet bore of the machined housing. This is accomplished by providing an additional valve stem holder that acts as a stem holder through which at least part of the tube portion of the valve member extends, with the stem holder instead of the valve member tube being located adjacent to the bore of the machined housing. The stem holder does not need to be subject to the anodizing process, and therefore a tight tolerance between the valve member and stem holder provides adequate leakage control, and the anodizing process applied to the machined housing otherwise is separated from the location where leakage tolerance is critical.

Abstract: Shown is an apparatus and method for cracking stone fruit nuts. The apparatus includes a frame (2) supporting a set of spaced apart jaw including a first jaw (4) and a second jaw (5) defining between them a gap (6), which is tapered down from the inlet (7) to the outlet (8). The first jaw (4) is adjustably secured to the frame (2) for adjustment of the size of the gap (6). The second jaw (5) is movably supported by the frame (2) and secured to drive means configured to rotatably move the second jaw (5) relative to the first jaw (4) with a tangential motion resulting in the continuously change of the size of the gap (6). To crack the shell, the stone fruit nut is located between the jaws and repeatedly pressed and rolled between the jaws from the inlet (7) to the outlet (8).

Abstract: A spring operated swing out rotor system for a centrifuge includes a rotor with a rotor top and a rotor bay extending down from the rotor top, the rotor bay having a bay wall and a bay bottom; a carrier tray rotatably attached to a retaining element on the bay wall; and a compression-resistant element between the tray and the bay wall urging the tray to rotate away from the bay wall, so that when the rotor is at rest, the tray is maintained at a positive angle from vertical, and when the centrifuge spins the rotor, centrifugal force positions the tray at a vertical angle. The compression-resistant element may be a spring or soft foam.

Abstract: A magnetic attachment system for securing vessels to a shaker includes a base having an upper side and a lower side; a plurality of flanges on the upper side of the base, each flange having an arm that extends away from the base and engages with the vessel so that the arms retain the vessel to the base; and a magnet on the lower side of the base that magnetically attaches the base to the platform, thereby releasably retaining the vessel to the platform. Each flange may be repositioned at a common distance from the center of the base to accommodate different sizes of vessel.

Abstract: A method of controlling an electric motor in an electric power assisted steering system, the motor being arranged so as to apply a force to part of a steering mechanism of a vehicle, in which the method comprises calculating a force demand indicative of an assistance force dependent upon the torque applied by a user (TD) to the steering mechanism that it is to be applied to the steering mechanism to reduce the exertion required by the user to steer the vehicle; combining the force demand with an overlay force demand (TER) indicative of a force which it is desired to overlay over the assistance force, to generate a combined assistance force (TA); and controlling the motor according to the combined assistance force, such that together with the force applied by the user, a total force is applied to the steering mechanism, in which, in order to generate the combined assistance force the torque applied by the user is subjected to a non-linear boost function and in which the overlay force demand is combined with th
