  • Publication number: 20150053181
    Abstract: A method for operating a fuel injection system with pressure reduction, and a fuel injection system that includes a fuel injection valve with a servo valve are provided. The method for operating a fuel injection system includes performing a desired pressure reduction in the pressure accumulator using at least one fuel injection valve of the fuel injection system. This is achieved by opening a servo valve in the fuel injection valve, which is opened, during a pressure reduction phase, just wide enough that the actual closing element remains closed and as a result no fuel injection process takes place.

  • Publication number: 20150056399
    Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to provide a porous ultra-thin polymer film, and a method for producing said porous ultra-thin polymer film. The present invention provides a porous ultra-thin polymer film with a film thickness of 10 nm-1000 nm. In addition, the present invention provides a method for producing a porous ultra-thin polymer film, comprising the steps of: dissolving two types of mutually-immiscible polymers in a first solvent in an arbitrary proportion to obtain a solution; applying the solution onto a substrate and then removing the first solvent from the solution applied onto the substrate to obtain a phase-separated ultra-thin polymer film that has been phase-separated into a sea-island structure; and immersing the ultra-thin polymer film in a second solvent which is a good solvent for the polymer of the island parts but a poor solvent for a polymer other than the island parts to remove the island parts, thereby obtaining a porous ultra-thin polymer film.

  • Patent number: 8944698
    Abstract: A multi-pin connector with a small envelop and low insertion loss capable of operating while submerged is described within. This configuration avoids the tolerance stack up troubles that has plagued other similar designs thereby allowing it to achieve a low insertion loss without the typical cost drivers of tighter tolerances. In addition this invention incorporates as relatively simple method of tuning each pair of connectors thereby further reducing the insertion loss for each matched pair.

  • Publication number: 20150013647
    Abstract: A method for operating a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine uses a piezo actuator that includes, in addition to the active piezo region used to actuate the servo valve, a passive piezo region that acts as a force sensor. A force measurement is performed using this force sensor during the injection phase or in the injection pause, and a correction variable for controlling the piezo actuator is determined from the deviation between the actual force progression and a target progression, in order to regulate the injection process in this manner. A fuel injection system configured to perform such a method is also disclosed.

    Abstract: System and method embodiments are disclosed here to resolve Internet Protocol (IP) address overlap of Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network (VXLAN) endpoints in packets forwarded between the VXLAN and an external or public network. An embodiment method includes assigning different port number ranges to different virtual private networks of the VXLAN, mapping private IP addresses for endpoints at the virtual private networks to corresponding public IP addresses known to a public network, and mapping local ports of the endpoints to corresponding port numbers from the port number ranges assigned to the virtual private networks, wherein each of the endpoints at the virtual private networks is assigned to a unique combination of public IP address and port number. The mapping can be done at a VXLAN gateway or at the endpoints on physical servers of the virtual private networks.

  • Patent number: 8867366
    Abstract: Forwarding state may be installed for sparse multicast trees in a link state protocol controlled Ethernet network by enabling intermediate nodes to install state for one or more physical multicast trees, each of which may have multiple logical multicast trees mapped to it. By mapping multiple logical multicasts to a particular physical multicast, and installing state for the physical multicast, fewer FIB entries are required to implement the multiple multicasts to reduce the amount of forwarding state in forwarding tables at the intermediate nodes. Mapping may be performed by destination nodes before advertising membership in the physical multicast, or may be performed by the intermediate nodes before installing state when a destination node advertises membership in a logical multicast.
