Abstract: A method of making a porous structure configured for use in a particulate filter includes bonding a plurality of glass bubbles to one another, and breaching the plurality of glass bubbles. Voids within individual breached glass bubbles open into one another to form cavities that extend through the porous structure.

Abstract: In an approach to limiting container CPU usage based on network traffic, a packet CPU usage for each packet type of one or more packet types is determined. A network CPU usage is calculated for a specific container based on the network CPU usage for each packet type. A container process CPU usage and a total container CPU usage are calculated for the specific container, where the total container CPU usage is the sum of the network CPU usage and the container process CPU usage. Responsive to determining that the total container CPU usage exceeds a threshold, the container CPU consumption quota and the container network bandwidth setting for the specific container are adjusted to reduce the total container CPU usage, using a set of pre-configured parameters.

Abstract: A computer-implemented hypervisor system and method comprises utilizing the hypervisor system, which comprises a privileged domain (PD) and a guest domain (GD). The PD is an instance of a virtual machine that has direct access to hardware devices. The PD comprises a back-end interface for communicating with other GDs. The GD is an instance of a virtual machine that does not have direct access to hardware devices, and comprises a front-end interface for communicating with the PD and communicates only packets with the PD. On the GD, and in an initialization stage of the front-end interface, the system allocates a predefined number of packet data entries for storing packet data, allocates the predefined number of grant table entries, each comprising a grant table id. During the initialization stage, each grant table entry is bound with a packet data entry.

Abstract: A method of capturing soot includes the steps: combusting a first precursor in a burner to produce a soot stream, the soot stream comprising soot and exiting the burner at an outlet; and directing a capture medium to the soot stream, the capture medium contacting the soot in an impact region, the soot having a temperature greater than 50° C. in the impact region.

Abstract: Methods of processing or modifying a glass substrate such as a glass sheet are disclosed. A method includes contacting at least one of opposing major surfaces of the glass sheet with a fluid applicator apparatus and a liquid etchant composition including acetic acid, ammonium fluoride, and water, the contacting conducted at a predetermined transfer rate of the liquid etchant to the at least one of the opposing major surfaces. The predetermined liquid transfer rate is controlled to adjustably texture the at least one of the opposing major surfaces and provide a textured major surface, wherein when the textured major surface and a planar surface are placed in contact, there is an adhesion force between the textured major surface and the planar surface, and wherein the adhesion force is within a target adhesion force range.

Abstract: A substrate with a textured surface is disclosed. The textured glass substrate exhibits low haze and a significant reduction in contact electrostatic charging when compared to an un-textured but otherwise identical glass substrate. Methods of producing the textured surface by an in situ mask etching process are also disclosed.
