  • Publication number: 20230088146
    Abstract: A design optimization method and system comprises preparing a symbolic tree, updating node symbol parameters using a plurality of samples, sampling the plurality of samples with a method for solving, the multi-armed bandit problem, promoting each sample in the plurality of samples down a path of the symbolic tree, evaluating each path with a fitness function, and outputting a path of the symbolic tree.

  • Publication number: 20230063140
    Abstract: Low-profile latching mechanisms and related mechanical interfaces for allowing straps and other fastening accessories for limb-wearable devices are provided. The mechanisms in question allow for a very strong, yet easily releasable, connection to be made between a strap accessory and a device housing, with very little of the mechanism being visible.

  • Patent number: 11583817
    Abstract: A method of producing aluminum chlorohydrate comprises adding small form aluminum metal pellets to a reactant receiving space of a reactor tank to form a pellet bed; adding aqueous hydrochloric acid to the reactant receiving space of the reactor tank; and continuously circulating the aqueous hydrochloric acid through the pellet bed. In some embodiments, the continuously circulating aqueous hydrochloric acid dispels reaction gases from the pellet bed. Methods described herein can, in some cases, further comprise consecutively adding additional small form aluminum metal pellets to the reactant receiving space of the reactor tank as the small form aluminum metal pellets are consumed in the pellet bed.

  • Publication number: 20220408886
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for memory module data drives. A memory module includes a number of memory devices as well as module logic. Each memory device provides data by driving voltages along a data bus with a data bus driver of the memory device. An output driver, which is located on the module logic receives the voltages along the data bus and drives voltages of an external data terminal to output the data. The output driver may have a greater drive strength than the data bus driver.

  • Patent number: 11299811
    Abstract: An electrochemical reactor for use with a liquid electrolyte is capable of generating gaseous products. An electrically conducting porous layer that is hydrophilic on the catalyst side and hydrophobic on the gas side are utilized. These different surface properties promote the transport of product gases formed at the catalyst through the porous layer to the gas side. The catalyst is formed from a hybrid Cu2O—CuBr film that has a high selectivity for ethylene gas from reacting CO2 and water in an electrochemical cell.
