Abstract: A vortex breaker for a particulate separator has a first set of vanes spaced along a perimeter of a first shape and a second set of vanes spaced along a perimeter of a second shape, where the second shape resides within the first shape. Each of the vanes has a top edge, a bottom edge, an inside edge, and an outside edge. The vanes in the first and second sets of vanes intersect the first and second shapes, respectively. The vanes in the first set are oriented in a first rotational direction, and the vanes in the second set are oriented in a second rotational direction that is opposite the first rotational direction. The first set of vanes and the second set of vanes define fluid flow paths between the outside edges and the inside edges of the sets of vanes.

Abstract: A separator for separating solid matter and gas from a fluid flow includes a vessel having an inlet, a fluid outlet, and a gas outlet. The fluid outlet is spaced below the inlet. The separator further includes an enclosure disposed between the inlet and the fluid outlet that redirects the fluid stream passing from the inlet to the fluid outlet. The enclosure defines an inner cavity above a lower edge of the enclosure, and the lower edge defines a fluid flow area. The fluid outlet is disposed within the inner cavity at a height that is above the lower edge of the enclosure and the gas outlet is disposed with a gas space defined by the enclosure.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for efficient storage and/or processing of enterprise data. A set of data from a content management system (CMS) is received and interpreted to determine a hierarchical object structure for the set of data. The hierarchical object structure includes: at least one parent object; at least one child object that is a subordinate object of the parent object; an indication of each parent/child relationship; and a set of attributes for each of the objects. The set of attributes for each of the at least one parent object and the at least one child object are analyzed in light of the indication of each parent/child relationship to gather accumulated attribute data. A graphical user interface (GUI) is rendered that presents one or more graphical cards representing the objects.

Abstract: Systems are methods are provided for implementing a deep learning accelerator system interface (DLASI). The DLASI connects an accelerator having a plurality of inference computation units to a memory of the host computer system during an inference operation. The DLASI allows interoperability between a main memory of a host computer, which uses 64 B cache lines, for example, and inference computation units, such as tiles, which are designed with smaller on-die memory using 16-bit words. The DLASI can include several components that function collectively to provide the interface between the server memory and a plurality of tiles. For example, the DLASI can include: a switch connected to the plurality of tiles; a host interface; a bridge connected to the switch and the host interface; and a deep learning accelerator fabric protocol. The fabric protocol can also implement a pipelining scheme which optimizes throughput of the multiple tiles of the accelerator.

The stock sheet can have opposing first and second sheet surfaces joined together by opposing side edges and opposing ends. Typically, the first and second sheet surfaces are substantially smooth and planar, wherein the sheet has 3 mg/foot2/side to about 200 mg/foot2/side of a solid lubricant having a melting temperature from about 80 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Moreover, the opposing side edges usually are substantially free of the solid lubricant. In some configurations, the stock sheet is an aluminum stock sheet, more particularly an aluminum can stock sheet. Furthermore, the lubricant can be in some configurations a food grade lubricant, that is qualifies a low volatile organic compound under one or more of municipal, state and federal governing authorities.
