  • Patent number: 11347906
    Abstract: A method of facilitating simulations of industrial processes is disclosed. The method can be applied to the simulation of hydrocarbon processing, including oil and gas processing and production, refining and petrochemicals processing. The method includes receiving process information defining a process for simulation; creating and storing at least one rule defining a time-dependent property of the process information; and simulating the process based on the received process information under variation of the time-dependent property of the process information. An associated apparatus is also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20200130838
    Abstract: A system for providing a passenger interface for a passenger in a seat including at least one sensor adapted to generate a signal representative of the position, the configuration, and/or the direction of movement of hand of the passenger; a controller, and a projector for projecting a passenger interface, placement of which is determined based at least on the signal. A method includes receiving a first signal indicative of a position and/or an arm of the passenger; projecting, by a projector, a passenger interface onto a predetermined surface, the passenger interface location on the predetermined surface being based on the first signal, receiving a second signal indicative of the position, configuration, and/or direction of movement of the passenger's hand of with respect to the passenger interface; and adjusting at least one of a passenger controllable feature, and projection of at least one media display by a second projector.

  • Patent number: 9647373
    Abstract: A power connector for a vehicle includes a receptacle with a central opening that can receive a cylindrical connector. Within the central opening are a center contact and a number of electrical contacts arranged in a generally circular configuration around the center contact. The receptacle further includes an extension area on either side of the central opening that hold one or more additional electrical contacts. A pair of covers are configured to open to expose the additional contacts and the center contact with the surrounding circular configuration of contacts. With both covers open, all the contacts in the receptacle are exposed. In one embodiment, the receptacle includes a generally hexagonal faceplate surrounding the receptacle.
