  • Publication number: 20210310341
    Abstract: A powertrain for powering wellsite pumping operations includes a power source for producing energy, a power bank, electric motors coupled to pumps, and a power management system. The power source can be a prime mover coupled to a generator, the prime mover sized for supply up to the average power demand of the pumping operation, and the power bank is sized to supply up to at least the difference between the peak and average power demand of the pumping operation, thereby providing a load levelling means to satisfy peak demand of the operation. The power management system manages the direction of current flow, state of charge of the power bank, and power source operation to provide least fuel consumption while meeting the power demand of the pumping operation.

  • Publication number: 20210309586
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention relate to improvements in the flexibility with which oxygen and hydrogen, for example from electrolysis, may be supplied to processes having both gasification and methanation steps, as well as improvements in how such processes may be operated in response to variations in carbonaceous feeds. Offsets, between the ideal quantity of hydrogen and the quantity available from a given source may be compensated for by adjusting one or more operations of the process, and in particular such operation(s) that ultimately impact the quantity of CO and/or CO2 available downstream of the gasifier for conversion to methane in an RNG product stream.

  • Publication number: 20210314389
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided that automatically scale an application between private and public cloud computing platforms, while simultaneous enforcing policies ensuring private data is persistently stored on the private cloud computing platform, but not the public cloud computing platform. A traffic manager on the public platform routes traffic to instances of a web app executing on a private platform. A traffic monitor on the private platform monitors performance criteria of the private platform, and reports traffic telemetry to the traffic manager. Based on the traffic telemetry, the traffic manager may instantiate one or more instances of the web app on the public platform to handle traffic. Private data gathered by such instantiated instance(s) is persisted to storage in the private platform, but not in the public platform.

  • Publication number: 20210308923
    Abstract: Non-time dependent measured variables are used to effectively determine an optimal ejection time of a part from a mold cavity. A system and/or approach may first measure at least one non-time dependent variable during an injection molding cycle. The part is ready to be ejected from the mold upon the measured variable reaching a threshold value indicative of, for example, a part temperature dropping below an activation temperature.

  • Publication number: 20210310823
    Abstract: A method for updating a map of the surrounding area wherein the map is used when controlling a transportation vehicle. The transportation vehicle attempts, when travelling along a carriageway, to detect a landmark recorded in the map of the surrounding area using sensors. In response to the transportation vehicle being unable to detect the landmark using its sensors, the transportation vehicle prepares a proposal for deletion which is sent to an external central computer. The proposal for deletion is examined in the external central computer and deletes the landmark from the map of the surrounding area in response to the proposal for deletion being verified. In the method, information regarding a visibility range for the landmark is entered in the map of the surrounding area specifying at what range the landmark is visible from a road permitting a more effective detection of landmarks.

  • Publication number: 20210312092
    Abstract: An IC comprising functional circuit to perform primary functions of the IC is provided. The functional circuit is to enable electrical signals to propagate through it within a timing constraint of the functional circuit. The IC comprises at least one canary circuit used for detecting glitch attacks on the circuit. Electrical signals are to propagate through the canary circuit(s) within a defined timing constraint of the canary circuit(s). The canary circuit is to provide a signal path designed such that in the event of a timing constraint of the functional circuit(s) is violated due to a glitch attack, also the timing constraint of the canary circuit(s) is violated.

  • Publication number: 20210311956
    Abstract: In one implementation, a method is provided that receives multiple potential listings associated with an entity. A listing is selected from the multiple listings and is designated as a representative listing of the entity. A first request is transmitted to synchronize the representative listing with the entity. Responsive to receiving an indication that a synchronization of the first listing and a web address corresponding with the entity is complete, transmitting to the provider system using an application programming interface, a second request to suppress a second listing of the plurality of potential listings as a duplicate listing. A communication is received from the provider system via the application programming interface that confirms that the second request to suppress the second listing from a search result generated by the provider system is accepted.
