Abstract: A method of making battery plates for lead-acid batteries includes providing a strip of material comprising lead; and punching material out of the strip to form a grid comprising wires having a non-rectangular cross-sectional shape by utilizing a die set comprising a plurality of male die components and female die components, wherein each of the male die components comprises a first portion having a first cross-sectional shape and a second portion having a second-cross sectional shape. A single punch of the material creates a hole in the material and also forms the periphery of the hole.

Abstract: Presented herein are systems and methods for merging and manipulating data from different sources of clinical trial data. Clinical trial data is collected using multiple different ‘forms’ and can be from either a single clinical trial or from multiple clinical trials. In certain embodiments, the systems and methods described herein are provided in the form of an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) that enables a user to merge and manipulate data from two or more source tables of clinical trial data associated with one or more clinical studies to produce a custom merged table, without having to rely upon complex computer code.

Abstract: Examples for creating a graphical mapping of pipe node location selection for a fluid distribution system are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a method for creating a graphical mapping of pipe node location selection for a fluid distribution system includes: receiving predetermined criteria for each pipe segment of a plurality of pipe segments in the fluid distribution system; determining an equivalent length for each pipe segment based at least on the predetermined criteria; grouping each pipe segment into a specific propagation category of a plurality of propagation categories based on the equivalent lengths; and creating a graphical map of the plurality of pipe segments and utility components utilizing a plurality of links.

Abstract: A flow cassette has a housing with an inlet and an outlet and a passage therebetween. The flow cassette also has a temperature sensor disposed within the passage and configured to measure the temperature of a fluid flowing through the passage, a flow rate sensor disposed within the passage and configured to measure a flow rate of the fluid flowing through the passage, and a processor coupled to the temperature sensor and flow rate sensor. The processor is configured to accept measurements of temperature and flow rate from the temperature sensor and flow rate sensor, respectively, and provide a compensated flow rate.

Abstract: A flow sensor comprises a flow restriction disposed within a passage such that a fluid passing through the passage must pass through the flow restriction. The flow sensor also has an upstream pressure sensor coupled to the passage at a point upstream of the flow restriction and configured to measure and provide an upstream pressure of the fluid within the passage, a downstream pressure sensor coupled to the passage at a point downstream of the flow restriction and configured to measure and provide a downstream pressure of the fluid within the passage, and a temperature sensor coupled to the passage and configured to measure and provide a temperature of the fluid within the passage. The flow sensor also includes a flow sensor processor coupled to the upstream and downstream pressure sensors and the temperature sensor and configured to accept measurements therefrom and calculate a compensated flow rate based at least in part on the measured pressures and temperature.

Abstract: Presented herein are systems and methods to automatically and periodically retrieve clinical trial data from an EDC source, process the data to transform it from its initial representation as retrieved from the EDC source into table-based format, and store the resultant transformed data in an intermediate data storage layer for access by stakeholders. Accordingly, instead of accessing source data, such as EDC ODM-XML data directly from an EDC source, a stakeholder may retrieve clinical trial data from the transformed data stored in the data storage layer. The systems and methods provide transformed data that better serves the needs of stakeholders during a clinical trial.

Abstract: An adapter for selectively providing fluid to a device from one of multiple fluid sources has a body with a first inlet for connecting a first one of the multiple fluid sources to the device and a second inlet for connecting a second one of the multiple fluid sources to the device. The adapter also includes a handle that is movably coupled to the body and includes an access control element. The handle is configured to secure the body to a device when the adapter is in either of a first position or a second position that is rotated relative to the first configuration. The access control element obstructs access to the second inlet when the adapter is secured to the device in the first position and the access control element obstructs access to the first inlet when the adapter is secured to the device in the second position.
