Abstract: The integration of dissimilar materials poses a significant challenge in engineering, necessitating innovative solutions for robust and reliable joining. Interlocking metasurfaces (ILMs) are a new joining technology comprising arrays of autogenous features patterned across two surfaces that interlock to form robust structural joints. The present invention is directed to optimizing the tensile performance of ILM joints formed between dissimilar materials. Parametric optimization can be used to identify optimal unit cell geometries for maximal yield strength. The invention enables the design of stronger ILM joints between dissimilar materials, thereby making ILMs a versatile and effective joining technology in diverse engineering applications.

Abstract: A high-density power distribution system incorporates smart tap-off boxes (TOB) connected to an overhead busway and receiving therefrom a three-phase input power supply. The smart TOB resolves the three-phase input power into 3N single-phase output power circuits (where N is a positive integer) each connected to an overcurrent protection (OCP) device associated with an amperage level. A set of 3N conductors connected to the smart TOB carries the single-phase output power circuits to a rack power distribution unit (PDU, rPDU) in a server cabinet (e.g., via rack connection devices connecting the conductors to the rPDU), the rPDU including a linear array of output power sockets corresponding to the single-phase output power circuits.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for resetting security credentials for an authentication management client on a client device. In one non-limiting example, the authentication management client is configured to receive encrypted account data associated with a user from an authentication management service and decrypt the encrypted account data using a master security credential. The decrypted account data is stored as client account data associated with the client device. The authentication management client is configured to receive a request to reset a plurality of security credentials in the client account data. At least one of the plurality of security credentials in the client account data are reset.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system provide the ability to determine and provide a safety risk analysis for construction. Construction related data is obtained and includes textual data and a visual artifact for the construction project. A construction safety context is identified based on the construction related data. Based on the construction safety context, a safety participant risk score that assigns a numerical safety risk participant value to any entity involved in the construction project is determined. Based on the safety risk participant score, a safety project score that assigns a risk level on a per-project basis is determined. The safety risk analysis is presented based on the safety participant risk score and safety project score, via a graphical user interface.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving efficiency in continuing education management may include a cloud-based continuing education (CE) management platform customized for the user to streamline end-to-end CE management. The system may accept license and certification information from the end user and utilize a rules engine and a CE content library database to generate a task-driven dashboard with personalized CE content recommendations as output for the end user. The systems and methods may include the conversion of a regulation into a standardized task component structure that may enable task generation with specific due dates and credit calculations. The systems may include an additional layer of metadata created for each element of CE content in the system to identify course relevance to a rules task via keywords.

Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which are stored computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, may cause the processor to receive an input file and validate the input file for render errors. Based on a determination that the input file does not include the render errors, the processor may determine whether the input file passes a pre-flight analysis. Based on a determination that the input file has passed the pre-flight analysis, the processor may determine whether a specification of the input file matches an output specification for a printed document. Based on a determination that the specification of the input file corresponds to the output specification, the processor may output the input file as a verified input file for the printed document.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for updating account data with multiple account providers. Account management logic determines that data associated with a user has been updated. A validation procedure is performed on the updated data. Multiple accounts of the user that may use the data are determined. The accounts are with multiple account providers. Corresponding account update requests for the accounts are sent to the account providers. The account update requests specify the data that has been updated.

Abstract: As may be implemented with various aspects of the present disclosure, a mesh structure is coupled to inner and outer frames that operate with struts to apply pressure to the mesh. Such an approach may involve sealing the mesh around an opening, such as around one or more artery openings along an interior wall of vascular tissue (e.g., in an aortic arch). Accordingly, blood flow can be filtered in a manner that is useful for capturing particulates such as those resulting from surgical operations. In various implementations, the mesh, struts and frames are deployed using a catheter and shaft coupled to the frames. Such an approach can be implemented to apply a spring force from the shaft and through the frames for sealing the mesh.
