Abstract: Low primary amine (LPA) polyaspartic esters are provided which comprise a reaction product of an aliphatic diamine and an excess of a Michael addition receptor optionally, in the presence of a C1-C10 alcohol, wherein the low primary amine (LPA) polyaspartic ester has a monoaspartate content of less than 10%. The low primary amine (LPA) polyaspartic esters of the invention may find use in slow reactivity polyurea systems and react with polyisocyanates to produce polyurea coatings, adhesives, sealants, films, composites, castings, and paints.

Abstract: A filter system for filtering a fluid is disclosed which consists of a sock filter for use in a pool containing a high flow rate laminar flow current generator. The sock filter separates particles of a certain size from an unclean fluid. The unclean fluid is contained within a pool with a high flow rate laminar flow generator used to create laminar flow. Pools containing high flow rate laminar flow generators contain only low flow rate skimmer paper filters and do not contain floor drains and suction ports for removing settled particles. The High Flow Rate Sock Filter attaches to the high flow rate laminar flow generator and filters particles from the fluid within the pool. The sock filter can be detached for rinsing and cleaning.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a fog drone that selects, organizes, monitors, and controls a plurality of drones in a fleet. The fog drone receives a job to be completed from a dispatcher and identifies the resources for accomplishing the job such as the amount of material (e.g., fiber optic cable) or the type of drones (e.g., drones with RF antennas or digging implements) needed to execute the job. Using the identified resources, the fog drone estimates the number of drones needed to complete the job and can recruit available drones to form the fleet. Once the fleet is formed, the fog drone determines a number of drones to place on standby to replace active drones if those drones need to recharge or malfunction.

Abstract: The present invention provides an aqueous polyurethane dispersion (PUD) comprising an amorphous polyester having a glass transition temperature (Tg) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry of less than ?30° C.; wherein the aqueous polyurethane dispersion (PUD) has a glass transition temperature (Tg) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of 0° C. to 20° C. and a hard block content of greater than 50%. Coatings, adhesives, sealants, paints, primers and topcoats, made from the inventive aqueous polyurethane dispersion (PUD) are particularly suited for use on wood surfaces including floors, doors, window frames, door frames, picture frames, window shutters, window surrounds, railing, gates, pillars, arbors, ladders, shelves, furniture, stairs, cabinetry, decks, docks, boats, pergolas, trellises, gazebos, posts, fencing, cladding, and siding and for concrete, cement, stone, or brick substrates such as floors, pipes, walls, pavers, vaults, blocks, tiles, and roof tiles.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for automatically generating a dynamic user interface of inter-related systems management widgets for an application program. In an embodiment, in response to detecting an event, the application program selects a primary widget from multiple widgets to display on the user interface. In response to such selection of the primary widget, the application program queries a data store that is stores tags associated with widgets, using one or more particular tags that are associated with the primary widget. Based on the querying, the application program determines one or more secondary widgets from the multiple widgets that are associated with at least one of the one or more particular tags of the primary widget. For each particular secondary widget among the one or more secondary widgets, the application program determines correlation data that measures correlation of the particular secondary widget to the primary widget.
