Abstract: Steady-field coilgun methods and devices based on a steady-field coil(s). The fundamental operational basis is to leave the current running in the solenoid/coil during the operation of the gun or other projectile launcher, where the field must be built up only once-initially, when turning the gun or launcher on. Then firing involves loading a bullet or other projectile in the barrel and releasing it to be accelerated by the established magnetic field. To fire again, the system loads the next bullet into the barrel and releases it again to be accelerated by the same steady magnetic field. To stop the firing, simply prevent the next bullet from loading, or load it but do not release it in the barrel. To turn off the system, simply disconnect the DC voltage driving the current in the solenoid(s)/coil(s).

Abstract: A system includes a tie plate distribution system, a first diverter, and a second diverter. The tie plate distribution system includes a first end, a second end, and a sloped surface extending between the first end and the second end. The first diverter is located on the sloped surface between the first end and the second end. The first diverter is configured to rotate a tie plate around a first axis as the tie plate moves along the sloped surface. The second diverter is located on the sloped surface between the first diverter and the second end. The second diverter is configured to rotate the tie plate in a first direction, or a second direction opposite the first direction, around the first axis as the tie plate moves along the sloped surface.

Abstract: Systems and devices are provided for generating focused ultrasound pulses based on a transducer assembly having a piezoelectric layer coupled to an acoustic lens. In some example embodiments, the piezoelectric layer is a composite piezoelectric material having an acoustic impedance configured to match the acoustic impedance of the acoustic lens. The acoustic lens may be formed from aluminum, or an alloy thereof, and may have a distal surface having a non-spherical profile for producing a focal region that is smaller than an equivalent spherical lens. The acoustic lens may have an f-number less than unity. In some embodiments, the acoustic lens is coated with a polymer acoustic impedance matching layer that is compatible with deposition via chemical vapor deposition, such as a p-xylylene based polymer. In some embodiments, the acoustic lens is formed from aluminum or an alloy thereof, and the polymer acoustic impedance matching layer is a Parylene layer.

Abstract: A manned/unmanned aerial vehicle adapted for vertical takeoff and landing using the same set of engines for takeoff and landing as well as for forward flight. An aerial vehicle which is adapted to takeoff with the wings in a vertical as opposed to horizontal flight attitude which takes off in this vertical attitude and then transitions to a horizontal flight path. A tailless airplane which uses a control system that takes inputs for a traditional tailed airplane and translates those inputs to provide control utilizing non-traditional control methods.

Abstract: Arrangements for dynamical travel threat assessment and control are provided. In some examples, a system may receive a request to schedule travel. The request may include one or more aspects. Based on the aspects, threat data may be requested. The threat data may be requested from a plurality of data sources including internal data sources and external data sources. Machine learning may be used to evaluate the threat data to generate or identify one or more potential threats associated with the requested travel. Based on the generated one or more potential threats, one or more actions may be identified. The actions may include completion criteria used to determine whether an action has been completed. The actions may be transmitted to one or more devices for execution. After executing the actions, action response data may be received and compared to the completion criteria to determine whether the requested travel should be authorized or denied.
