Abstract: An electric drive for a vehicle comprises a housing, an electric machine with a stator connected to the housing and including stator end-windings, a rotor rotatable relative to the stator, and a driveshaft connected to the rotor and rotatably supported in the housing about an axis of rotation, a transmission to transmit a rotary movement from the driveshaft to drive a driveline of the vehicle, and a hydraulic circuit for circulating a fluid.

Abstract: An electric drive arrangement for a vehicle includes a housing, an electric machine, a transmission, and a hydraulic circuit for circulating a fluid to cool and lubricate the electric machine and the transmission.

Abstract: Device and method for melt treatment of aluminium alloys having excessive inclusions, impurities and unwanted gases to be removed, by (a) cooling the melt at an appropriate cooling rate to a temperature below the liquidus by shearing the melt associated with the introduction of at least one type of inert gases into the melt to form fine bubbles and high shear in the melt, and (b) purifying inclusions in the melt by floating them to the top surface, degassing the undesirable gases by reacting with the inert gas, and forming solid intermetallics containing impurity elements and transferring the melt mixture by the shearing device into a holding furnace, and (c) maintaining the melt in the holding furnace at a temperature below the liquidus and above the solidus temperature to settle the solid intermetallics formed by impurity elements as sediment at the bottom of the holding furnace while flowing the melt with much reduced inclusions, impurities and unwanted gases out of the holding furnace as applicable materi

Abstract: Systems in accordance with this invention obtain data over a plurality of networks from a plurality of sources which enable accurate analysis of data so obtained and subsequent manipulation and storage of the data. In particular, but not exclusively, systems in accordance with this invention relate to virtual warehousing of products as well as price comparison, price aggregation, and stock availability engines.

Abstract: A system and method for object system interoperability is provided. The system comprises an object generator, a target program, and a formatter which is a serializer and/or deserializer. The method comprises the steps of executing the object generator, which uses a data model specification to generate self-reflective object classes in the target program, which in turn calls a formatter to translate between an object instance and serial data.
