Abstract: A blast-resistant escape window for an armored combat ground vehicle has a cassette which fits within, and closes, a though-opening in a frame of a windscreen. Two releasable lever-operated locking mechanisms for releasably locking the cassette in the through-opening are mounted on the windscreen at opposite sides of the through-opening. The cassette can to be pushed out of the through-opening when the locking mechanisms have been operated to release the cassette from being locked to the windscreen, thereby providing an alternative exit for personnel in the vehicle.

Abstract: A temporal target table stored on a computer is scanned using the computer. The temporal target table has a ValidTime dimension and a value dimension. A qualifying-row having a value dimension having a value equal to a value of a value dimension in a row-to-be-inserted is found during the scanning. The row-to-be-inserted has a ValidTime dimension and the value dimension. The qualifying-row is processed. The row-to-be-inserted is inserted in the temporal target table. A ValidTime dimension of the inserted row-to-be-inserted is set to be as the union of the ValidTime dimension of the row-to-be-inserted and the ValidTime dimension of the qualifying-row.

Abstract: An inertial sensor includes at least one pair of sensor elements arranged in a linear array. Each sensor element has a frame and a movable mass suspended within the frame. The frames of each pair of sensor elements may be coupled so that the frames are allowed to move in anti-phase to one another along parallel axes but are substantially prevented from moving in phase with one another.

Abstract: A tank for liquidous material is disclosed having a single aperture for accessing an interior volume. A collar formed as a truncated cone circumscribes the aperture to provide sealing with a cap having a mating conical band. A band surface and a collar surface form the only contact between the cap and the collar. A drain fitting may be secured to the collar upon removal of the cap, after which the tank is upended for draining through the drain fitting. A wash fitting attached to the drain fitting sprays the interior of the tank for cleaning. No recesses (grooves) or `O` ring seals, and no protruding, resilient, normal, face seals are used which might trap debris and inhibit complete cleaning. The tapered collar and band create contact forces for sealing that are much greater than the load securing the cap to the collar. The tank, collar and cap may be rotomolded of a single material in a single mold, the cap being severed and trimmed after molding.
