  • Patent number: 11945754
    Abstract: A method for forming a complex shape three-dimensional ceramic article by printing a first layer of a first material having a first fraction of first ceramic particles and a first fraction of a first polymeric ceramic precursor. A second layer is printed such that it is at least partially disposed on the first layer of a second material having a second fraction of second ceramic particles and a second fraction of a second polymeric ceramic precursor. A composite of the first layer and the second layer is heated at a temperature sufficient to decompose the first and second polymeric ceramic precursors and sinter the article. During the sintering process, the first and second layers with different fractions of ceramic particles undergo different degrees of shrinkage, resulting in a tuneable mismatch of the bilayer structure and accurately achieving a targeted geometry.

    Abstract: An online concierge system determines a quantity of a resource available in a timeslot to fulfill orders during the timeslot. The orders include immediate orders placed during the timeslot and scheduled orders that are scheduled for fulfillment during the timeslot. The online concierge system applies the quantity of the resource to a machine learning model to produce a predicted relationship between a value of a fulfillment metric and an allocation of the quantity of the resource reserved for immediate orders. The online concierge system determines, based on the predicted relationship, an expected optimal allocation of the quantity of the resource that maximizes the fulfillment metric. The online concierge system reserves the expected optimal allocation of the quantity of the resource for immediate orders.
