Publication number: 20230332426Abstract: Natural disasters, such as cyclones, earthquakes, landslides, etc., or manmade damages, such as structural member's theft, terrorist attacks, etc., can cause collapse of transmission line towers. If these are not restored in time, there will be monetary loss to utilities as well as loss of service to consumers leading to societal impact. Generally, permanent restoration takes several weeks. Hence, a temporary solution for quick retrieval of power transmission is required. This invention provides a temporary support structural system comprising light weight guyed masts (1) made of readymade robust modules (6 and 7), easy to connect connection system, two pin gimbal joint (8) and easy to construct foundation system (9 and 10). The invention is flexible enough to develop various configurations for single or double circuit transmission lines. It is also scalable and can be used for 33 to 800 kV transmission lines.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2021Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Rajendra PITAMBAR ROKADE, Santosh KAPURIA, Kanchi BALAJI RAO, Napa PRASAD RAO, Rajagopal BALAGOPAL

Publication number: 20230147068Abstract: Systems and methods are described for establishing and managing components of a distributed computing framework implemented in a data intake and query system. The distributed computing framework may include a master and a plurality of worker nodes. The master may selectively operate on a search head captain that is chosen from the search heads of the data intake and query system. The search head captain may distribute configuration information for the master and the distributed computing framework to the other search heads, which in turn, may distribute that configuration information to indexers of the data intake and query system. Worker nodes may be selectively activated for operation on the indexers based on the configuration information, and the worker nodes may additionally use the configuration information to contact the master and join the distributed computing framework.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2022Publication date: May 11, 2023Inventors: Balaji Rao, Jindrich Dinga, Kieran Cairney, Manuel Martinez, Nitilaksha Halakatti, Ningxuan He, Arindam Bhattacharjee, Sourav Pal, Alexandros Batsakis
