  • Publication number: 20230021214
    Abstract: Tracking of health and resilience of physical equipment and related systems are disclosed. A system includes physical equipment and one or more processors. The physical equipment includes one or more assets. The one or more processors are configured to determine a resilience metric for the physical equipment. The resilience metric includes a real power component and a reactive power component based, at least in part, on an aggregation of real components and reactive components of adaptive capacities of the one or more assets. A cyber-physical system includes physical equipment, network equipment configured to enable the physical equipment to communicate over one or more networks, a physical anomaly detection system (ADS) configured to detect anomalies in operation of the physical equipment and provide a physical component of a cyber-physical metric, and a cyber ADS configured to detect anomalies in network communications over the one or more networks.

  • Publication number: 20190368638
    Abstract: A silica nanofiber material includes a flexible mat comprising a plurality of silica nanofibers. An electrical device may include an electrical component and the silica nanofiber material disposed over the electrical component. A method of forming a silica nanofiber material includes electrospinning a fluid comprising a silica precursor and a polymer to form electrospun fibers, removing at least a portion of the polymer from the electrospun fibers to form silica nanofibers, and annealing the silica nanofibers to bind the silica nanofibers together.
