Abstract: Polyurethane foams and methods of manufacturing are described herein. The foam can include (a) a polyurethane formed by the reaction of (i) one or more isocyanates selected from the group consisting of diisocyanates, polyisocyanates, and mixtures thereof, and (ii) one or more polyols; and (b) a filler. The amount of filler in the foam can be from 50 to 90% by weight, based on the total weight of the foam. The filler can include a plurality of fibers and/or a particulate filler. The polyurethane foams described herein are made without adding a surfactant to the reaction mixture. The density of the polyurethane foam can be at least 5 lb/ft3.

Abstract: A system and method for end-to-end transaction management, for example, for a structured finance market. The system and method digitizes and deconstructs complex interconnected transaction documents. The system creates transparency around the complexities of the transactions, generating significant efficiencies for existing market participants and enabling access to previously hidden and/or inaccessible data. In some embodiments, the platform supports a selected ecosystem (compared to specific use-cases within a market vertical) with a seamless integration of frameworks and schemas for the organization and structure of provisions, analytical tools extracting the required data, and the creation of metrics to informatively assess and calibrate the market. The system advantageously creates a digital language providing a tool, which will further enable the digitization of the finance ecosystem.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for dynamic synchronization of media streams from remote users. A latency matrix between all participants is generated and participants within acceptable synchronization windows are grouped together. Earlier media streams are buffered and started in synchronization with later streams locally at each client device. To provide an improved experience for earlier or lower-latency clients, additional media streams may be generated (e.g. synthesized, played back from recordings, or dynamically generated based on locally input media). Accordingly, each user is provided with a collaborative experience in substantial synchronization.

Abstract: Composite panels and methods of preparation are described herein. In some embodiments, the composite panel can include a first fiber reinforcement, a polyurethane composite having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, wherein the first surface is in contact with the first fiber reinforcement; and a cementitious material adjacent the first fiber reinforce-opposite the polyurethane composite. The polyurethane composite can be formed from (i) one or more isocyanates selected from the group consisting of diisocyanates, polyisocyanates, and mixtures thereof, (ii) one or more polyols, and (iii) a particulate filler. The fiber reinforcement can be formed from a woven or non-woven material, such as glass fibers. The composite panel can further include a material, such as a second fiber reinforcement and a cementitious layer, in contact with the second surface of the polyurethane composite. Articles comprising the composite panels are also disclosed.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a system for generating recommendations for a user. The system may obtain account data associated with a user. Based on the account data associated with the user, the system may access a machine learning model to determine a propensity for conversion to sustainability. The propensity for conversion to sustainability may be based on one or more purchases by the user of one or more sustainable items. Further, the propensity for conversion to sustainability may be based on one or more purchases by one or more similar users of one or more sustainable items. The system can generate recommendations for the user and the recommendations may include at least one recommendation for a sustainable item based on the propensity for conversion to sustainability.

Abstract: A conduit fitting for an exhaust duct includes a conduit and a condensate trap. The conduit fitting defines an interior space partitioned into an upper conduit and a lower condensate reservoir. The condensate reservoir can be configured to contain a neutralizing agent for neutralizing acidic condensate prior to it exiting the reservoir.

Abstract: A rear wall structure of a passenger compartment includes a vent opening and a horizontally extending seal protruding in a vehicle forward direction. A trim panel has a rear surface facing the rear wall structure. A vertically extending seal extends from the rear surface. With the trim panel installed to the rear wall structure the vertically extending seal contacts the rear wall structure, and, the horizontally extending seal of the rear wall structure contacts the rear surface of the trim panel such that the rear surface and the vertically extending seal of the trim panel and the upright interior surface and the horizontally extending seal of the rear wall structure define an air outlet passageway that extends from an opening in the trim panel to the vent opening.
