Abstract: A method of manufacturing a vehicle part formed at least in part of a blended material is provided. The blended material is formed by mixing an improved aluminum alloy and a recycled aluminum alloy. The recycled aluminum alloy can be obtained from road wheels. The blended alloy preferable meets the Aural series alloy specifications. The blended material can be cast under high pressure and a vacuum to form a part designed for use in a chassis or structural body of a vehicle, for example a front subframe, a front shock tower, a rear rail, a front kick-down rail, a front body hinge pillar, a tunnel, a front body hinge pillar, or a rear shock mount.

Abstract: An improved aluminum alloy for combining with a recycled aluminum alloy to form a blended material is provided. The improved aluminum alloy includes silicon, copper, iron, magnesium, zinc, manganese; nickel, chromium and tin in a total amount up to 0.15 wt. %; the other elements in a total amount up to 0.1 wt. %, up to 0.06 wt. % titanium, and 0.03 to 0.04 wt. % strontium. The recycled aluminum alloy can be obtained from road wheels. The blended material preferable meets the Aural series alloy specifications. The blended material can be cast under high pressure and a vacuum to form a vehicle part designed for use in a chassis or structural body of a vehicle, for example a front subframe, a front shock tower, a rear rail, a front kick-down rail, a front body hinge pillar, a tunnel, a front body hinge pillar, or a rear shock mount.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method of using attribution tracking for off-platform content promotion, for use in media content or other computing environments. A media campaign can be associated with a promoted content link (e.g., a URL) for use on a publisher web site. When the promoted content link is selected, for example by a user of a client media device, the user/device can be redirected to the media content environment. Client activity data can be logged to provide one or more campaign, content promoter, artist, date, user identification, or other data, which can be recorded as a promotion event. In response to the user/device performing additional downstream actions with regard to the promoted content, downstream events can be generated, and data pipelines used in combination with attribution windows, to correlate attribution of the downstream actions with particular media campaigns or content promoters.

Abstract: An interior building system which includes a curved, acoustical, self-supporting composite panel which differentiates and accents the interior building space, and, at the same time, provides substantial sound absorbing capabilities. The composite panel is composed of two or more layers of non self-supporting soft fiber material and a discontinuous layer of adhesive interposed between each of the soft fiber layers. The system further includes mounting hardware for attaching the panel to the building structure. The mounting hardware has a perforated plate which is embedded in the panel which minimizes the visibility of the hardware, and, at the same time, provides enhanced load bearing capabilities.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for providing an annuity structure and a system for processing an annuity structure. The annuity structure may include a base portion segment, where the base portion segment is a functional annuity having a first annuity schedule; and a secondary portion segment, where the secondary portion segment is a functional annuity having a second annuity schedule. In the invention, the base portion segment and the secondary portion segment each operate as its own annuity. Also, the base portion segment and the secondary portion segment are each included in a single contract, i.e., under the umbrella of one contract.
