Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system to operationalize driver eye movement data analysis based on moving objects of interest. Correlation and/or regression analyses between indirect (e.g., eye-tracking) and/or direct measures of driver awareness may identify variables that feature spatial and/or temporal aspects of driver eye glance behavior relative to objects of interest. The proposed systems and methods may be further combined with computer-vision techniques such as object recognition to (e.g., fully) automate eye movement data processing as well as machine learning approaches to improve the accuracy of driver awareness estimation.

Abstract: An external fixation system includes first and second fixation members having first and second pluralities of mounting holes, respectively. The first and second plurality of holes are configured to receive first and second ends of a plurality of struts, each strut having a default or initial mounting position. A simulation of the correction may be performed with the struts in the default positions, but it may be determined that the correction is not achievable. Additional simulations of the correction may be performed with the ends of the struts in different mounting positions to determine if other mounting positions of the struts allow the correction to be completed. During the correction, if one of the struts reaches a maximum length, it may be disconnected and reconnected to a different mounting hole so that, after being reconnected, the strut may be further increased in length to continue the correction.

Abstract: Methods for determining a volume of stored gas within a rock sample includes loading a rock sample into an overburden cell. A hydrocarbon gas at a gas pressure is applied to the rock sample and a confining fluid at a confining pressure is applied to the overburden cell. The confining pressure and the gas pressure are increased until a first pressure and temperature condition is met. With the rock sample maintained at the first temperature and pressure condition, a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer is used to scan the rock sample and measure a hydrocarbon gas volume within the rock sample. This measured hydrocarbon gas volume is then corrected using a Real Gas Index to determine the volume of stored gas within the rock sample.
