Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device supported by the chassis and configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover, wherein activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle, a body for storing refuse therein supported by the chassis, a first hydraulic pump configured to convert electrical power into hydraulic power, a second first hydraulic pump configured to convert electrical power into hydraulic power, and a motor coupled to at least one of the body or the chassis and configured to drive the first hydraulic pump and drive the second hydraulic pump.

Abstract: A system and method for communicating data is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of modems for receiving uplink data and transmitting downlink data; a switch, communicatively coupled to a plurality of MODEMs, the switch comprising a plurality of data queues, the switch for switchably accepting uplink data from the plurality of MODEMs and switchably providing downlink data from the plurality of data queues to the plurality of MODEMs; and a controller, communicatively coupled to the plurality of MODEMs and the switch, the controller for providing controller information for dynamically controlling the switch to switchably accept the uplink data from the plurality of MODEMs and to switchably provide downlink data from the plurality of data queues to the one or more of the plurality of MODEMs on a per-terminal and a per-communications link basis.

Abstract: There is disclosed a brush comprising a handle and at least one brush insert having a bend which is useful for cleaning the rolling contacts in a computer mouse. The inserts have radially protruding bristles and are bent to facilitate cleaning the rollers. Preferably, the handle has a hooked brush extending from one end and a bent brush extending from the other end.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for simulating a fusion environment on a first wall or blanket structure. A material test specimen is contained in a capsule made of a material having a low hydrogen solubility and permeability. The capsule is partially filled with a lithium solution, such that the test specimen is encapsulated by the lithium. The capsule is irradiated by a fast fission neutron source.
