Abstract: A sequencing data analysis platform can process datasets that include a large number of sequence read. The reads are aligned to one or more reference genomes. Due to sequencing errors, sequencing noise, or genuine differences between a reference genome and the individual species being sequenced, this mapping process may tolerate a certain number of mismatches, insertions, or deletions. The sequencing data analysis platform provides a set of tools for analyzing and visualizing the sequence reads.

Abstract: An improved squeeze chute, which may be portable or stationary, includes a frame having an entrance end, an exit end, a first side, a second side, an upper end and a lower end. A first squeeze sidewall is positioned on a first side of the frame and a second sidewall is positioned on a second side of the frame. The sidewalls are movable between inner and outer positions with respect to the frame by pivot arms that pivotally link each sidewall to a single hydraulically actuatable slide rail assembly. Embodiments of the chute include entrance gate members and exit gate members. The exit gate members being movable horizontally between open and closed positions by hydraulic actuation. Embodiments of the chute include a removeable and vertically adjustable sternum bar that is receivable into a receiver bar at the exit end of the chute.

Abstract: Methods and systems for supporting similar thermal devices may involve collecting, by a thermal module on a management controller of an information handling system, device information about an add-in card, determining whether the add-in card was previously defined by matching the device against a table, searching the table based on the determination that the add-in card was not previously defined, determining whether the add-in card is supported by finding a match in the table, and applying a thermal tier associated with the match in the table based on the determination that the add-in card is supported. The device information collected may involve at least two of a reseller part number, description, device identifier, sub device identifier, vendor identifier, sub vendor identifier, slot identifier, lane width, and auxiliary power indicator. The search of the table may involve at least one of the description, lane width, and sub vendor identifier.

Abstract: A bus seat is provided. The bus seat includes a backrest frame having a curve in part and a lumbar support coupled to the backrest frame by the curve. The bus seat also includes a horizontal seat that is pivotable from a seat position, where a seat frame is locked onto a base frame, to a stowed position. The bus seat is provided in a modular configuration to allow multiple backrests to be used for the bus seat. The backrests may include changeable seat belt configurations and child restraint system configurations. The bus seat also includes a seat belt retractor having a vertical configuration and a horizontal configuration for retracting and extending the seat belt.

Abstract: A tank system for capturing fluids from an oil or gas well. The system comprises a series of tanks adapted to step down the temperature and pressure of well products from a fossil fuel well while removing gas products until the liquid products contain less dissolved gas in a tank than they could contain at ambient temperature and pressure. Therefore, no venting of gas takes place during the separation. An oil-gas separator is provided within the tank system to separate organic products from non-organic products. Gas products may be flared or delivered for further processing.

Abstract: This invention relates to gas generators and methods for their use. In some embodiments, the invention relates to devices and methods of generating a gas enriched in a specific component. In other embodiments, the devices are configured to pressurize and regulate the temperature of atmospheric air prior to passing said air through a selectively permeable gas membrane. In further embodiments, a device is also configured to preheat said selectively permeable gas membrane.

Abstract: Oil production from formerly producing wells may be restored without removing a preexisting production tube by perforating the production tube above the tubing packer and charging the casing annulus at the surface with a pressurized charging fluid fluid, preferably deoxygenated air, that is lighter than water. The pressurized charging of the casing annulus with charging fluid is continued to purge the production tube flow bore of a static water column and reduce the tubing column head pressure against the formation production zone.

Abstract: Downhole equipment oxidation and injection well plugging consequential of non-cryogenic nitrogen utilities is prevented or alleviated by injecting a residual oxygen scavenging compound such as ammonium bisulfite into the predominately nitrogen and residual oxygen flow stream emerging from a non-cryogenic nitrogen concentration process.

Abstract: An interface assures high-speed transmission of optical data between submerged vessels. First and second vessels have pressure hulls and have a first plate transparent to optical data on the pressure hull of the first vessel and a second plate transparent to optical data on the pressure hull of the second vessel. A first optical transceiver in the first vessel is adjacent to the first transparent plate, and a second optical transceiver in the second vessel is adjacent to the second transparent plate. A layer of water between the first plate and the second plate is optically transparent to optical data to allow the first optical transceiver and the second optical transceiver to transmit and receive optical data through the first transparent plate, the water layer, and the second transparent plate.

Abstract: An untethered communications buoy system has an untethered buoy freely floating on the surface of water to not compromise the location of the submersible. The submersible has a cavity containing a first data interface member connected to a computer/data-storage that is connected to an acoustic transducer. The untethered buoy has a computer/memory module connected to a radio transceiver and acoustic transceiver. A second data interface member is connected to the computer/memory module and is mounted on the untethered buoy for fitting into the cavity and mating with the first data interface member. A ship is remotely located from the submersible and buoy and has a radio transceiver and an acoustic transceiver. Mating the first and second data interface members permits bidirectional downloading of data between the computer/data-storage and the computer/memory module.
