Abstract: A connection assembly for use in an elevated work platform, the connection assembly comprising a connection member, the connection member including a connection portion adapted for connection to one or more attachment portions located on a surface of the elevated work platform, and a retention portion, the retention portion being adapted for removable connection to a retention member, the retention member further comprising an object retention portion adapted to retain one or more objects.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vehicle booking system having a server configured to communicate with a plurality of vehicles, such that the server is configured to receive and store a plurality of vehicle booking requests in a vehicle booking requests database and the server is configured to identify and filter a plurality of undesirable vehicle booking requests from the plurality of vehicle booking requests to obtain a plurality of desirable vehicle booking requests and transmit the plurality of desirable vehicle booking requests to the plurality of vehicles. Further, the present invention provides a method of booking a vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and methods for achieving cavitation at high static pressures which may be used in acoustic applications and research such as in liquid metal resonators. Novel preparation and electroplating methods are disclosed to improve boundary layer conditions. A chemical cleaning loop for containment and treatment for oxide removal and to develop a dynamic system for chemically treating liquid metal disposed in a liquid metal loop is also described. A liquid metal handling loop for containment and treatment is provided to maintain cleanliness of bulk liquid metal.

Abstract: Methods and systems for electrodeposition of Indium, Gallium, or other metals within a metal acoustic resonator chamber are provided, including for electrodeposition of Indium or Gallium as a strike layer on an interior surface of a cavitation chamber. The resultant strike layer affords an accommodating wetting surface for subsequent filling with a liquid metal and performing cavitation therein. In some embodiments, this allows for the use of liquid metal in an acoustic resonator without the damping effects inherent with oxide boundaries or other defects.
