Abstract: A dishwasher includes a dispenser assembly, having a top plate portion and a rear plate portion, mounted to a dishwasher liner through at least one mechanical fastener which projects through the liner, extends freely through the rear plate portion and is secured to the top plate portion. Disposed between the liner and the rear panel portion is a seal, either a flat seal or a radial seal. In addition, a trim member, which can be hinged to the top plate portion or formed as a separate component, is provided about a periphery of the top plate portion and seats upon the liner.

Abstract: A disclosed example dishwasher includes a tub at least partially defining a treating chamber, a rack for holding utensils for treatment within the treating chamber, a first wheel coupled with the tub, a second wheel coupled with the rack at an angle other than perpendicular, and a track. The track can have first and second channels in a back-to-back relationship for respectively receiving the first and second wheels to slidably mount the rack to the tub.

Abstract: A system and method for simulating atmospheric turbulence for testing optical components. A time varying phase screen representing atmospheric turbulence is generated using Karhunen-Loeve polynomials and a splining technique for generating temporal functions of the noise factor for each Zernike mode. The phase screen is input to a liquid crystal spatial light modulator. A computer display allows the user to set geometric characteristics, the severity of the turbulence to be simulated, and to select between methods for generating atmospheric turbulence including Karhunen-Loeve polynomials, Zernike polynomials, and Frozen Seeing.
