Abstract: Computing platforms and methods for dynamic presentation of graphical and video content are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: provide, in a static browsing state, a static image associated with underlying video content; in response to an extended focus on the static image for a first threshold amount of time, expand a visual tile to a widescreen aspect ratio while remaining in the static browsing state; after a second threshold amount of time, initiate a dwell browsing state in which dwell tile content is provided in the expanded visual tile, while other content remains in the static browsing state; in response to a determination that the playback device supports a dwell video mode, play a video asset within the expanded visual tile; and in response to a determination that the playback device does not support the dwell video mode, provide an alternate non-video visual asset within the expanded visual tile.

Abstract: Cryogenic analysis assemblies and methods are provided. The assemblies and/or methods can be configured for optical sample analysis. The assemblies and/or methods can include: an objective assembly operatively aligned with a sample support assembly, both the objective assembly and sample support assembly residing within a vacuum housing; wherein the objective assembly defines an objective mount housing an objective coupled to a mounting ring within a chamber below a heater assembly; and an insulative member between the objective mount and the mounting ring, the insulative member supporting the objective mount and thermally isolating the objective mount from the mounting ring.

Abstract: A method includes a processor in a trusted domain receiving a first request having a plurality of messages for a device in an untrusted domain. The processor assigns a memory location having data segments and status segments. The memory location is accessible by an untrusted side interface card. The processor transmits a first message to a first data segment. The processor receives a first value associated with the first message from a first status segment. The processor determines whether the first value indicates that the first message has been received and stores a first representation of a successful data transmission. The processor transmits a second message to a second data segment. The processor retrieves a second value from the second status segment. The processor determines whether the second value indicates that the second message has been received and stores a second representation of the successful data transmission.

Abstract: The present invention relates, in part, to systems for characterizing force (e.g., friction, wear, and/or torque). In one embodiment, the system allows for wear testing of samples in a high throughput manner. In another embodiment, the system allows for torque sensing in a non-contact manner.

Abstract: A modular shelter, is provided having an assembly of at least one each of a modular wall panel, modular floor portion, and modular roof panel. The modular wall panel having a sill plate, top plate, plurality of vertical studs extending therebetween, and a skin with a first edge having a waveform profile for connecting to an adjacent modular panel; and one of the vertical studs being an end stud and having a first connector element configured to be secured to a first complementing connector element of an adjacent second modular panel; and further each modular roof panel has a peak crosspiece, bottom crosspiece, and plurality of rafters, with the first rafter having an engagement member to be engaged with a complementary engagement member of another modular roof panel, and further a second connector element configured to be secured to a second complementing connector element of a second modular roof panel.

Abstract: A mobile home system is provided having: a trailer having a chassis and tongue, at least one axle, and providing a trailer platform. A mobile home structure is secured to the trailer. The structure having a laminate floor portion; a roof portion with a ridge beam, and rafters extending away from the ridge beam, and bottom plates positioned at each end of the rafters; and a wall portion positioned between the floor portion and the roof portion. The wall portion has at least one wall with a top plate, a sill plate and studs extended therebetween, and internal sheathing panels.

Abstract: A method includes transmitting, by a first interface card in a trusted domain, data. A second interface card in an untrusted domain receives the data. The second interface card stores the data to a first memory location in the untrusted domain, and verifies integrity of the data. The second interface card writes a result of the verifying in a second memory location in the untrusted domain. The first interface card in the trusted domain retrieves the result of the verifying from the second memory location in the untrusted domain. The first interface card in the trusted domain determines if the data in the transmitting was received by the second interface card based on the result.

Abstract: A modular panel is provided and includes a sill plate, a top plate, a plurality of vertical studs, and having at least one skin applied to a major face of the modular panel that presents a first edge having a waveform profile configured to connect to an opposing edge of an adjacent modular panel. At least one of the vertical studs is an end stud having a connector element configured to be secured to a complementing connector of the adjacent modular panel. Two or more of the modular panels may be connected together to form part of a shelter.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods for decoking tubular passes of crude oil heaters and processed hydrocarbon heaters. The method permits continued operation of an associated crude oil processing unit or a processed hydrocarbon processing unit receiving crude oil or processed hydrocarbons from the heater during the decoking operation. The decoking operation utilizes dry steam to remove coke from passes within the crude oil heater or processed hydrocarbon heater and dry steam to maintain balanced operation of the crude oil processing unit or processed hydrocarbon processing unit.
