Abstract: Techniques for using additive manufacturing (AM) to fabricate creep resistant ferritic/martensitic steel with improved high temperature strength are described. AM processing may be performed on Grade 91 steel powder. Beam powers from about 221 W to about 270 W may be used. Traverse rates from about 675 mm/s to about 825 mm/s may be used. Heat inputs ranging from about 55.7 J/mm3 to about 83.2 J/mm3 may be produced. Creep resistant ferritic/martensitic steel, produced according to the present disclosure, has improved strain yield strength and ductility as compared to wrought steel.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of printing books based on digital data, comprises accepting a plurality of orders, each order including a request for at least one copy of each of a plurality of titles. The plurality of orders form a streamlined cover set. The streamlined cover set is scanned, the detecting of each cover in the cover set causing digital printing of a book block corresponding to the detected title associated with the cover.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for implementing enhanced proxy Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) for Virtual Internet protocol (IP) addresses. A Virtual Internet protocol (IP) interface requiring proxy ARP is identified and a proxy agent for the Virtual Internet protocol (IP) interface is dynamically selected. An IP address for the Virtual Internet protocol (IP) interface is added to an address list of a physical adapter for the selected proxy agent. Utilizing the physical adapter for the selected proxy agent, the added IP address for the Virtual Internet protocol (IP) interface is broadcast with a media access control (MAC) address of the physical adapter for the selected proxy agent.

Abstract: An occupant safety apparatus comprising: a gimbaled web guide (80, 80') having a first member (90, 130) defining a belt exit slit (92) and a gimbaled support structure (94, 96, 100, 102, 130) for permitting the first member to rotate about at least two generally perpendicular axes. This support structure also permits the first member to rotate about a third axis.
