  • Publication number: 20230205947
    Abstract: Systems and methods for simulating cyber-physical systems are disclosed. A plurality of geographic simulation layers representing respective infrastructure sectors of a real-world environment may be generated, and the layers may be linked together with one another to create a multi-layer simulation. The associations between the layers of the simulation may be adjusted, and characteristics of the simulation layers themselves may be adjusted, to ensure that the simulation conforms to characteristics of the real-world environment being simulated. In some embodiments, a multi-user simulation system allows users at separate terminals to execute attack inputs and defense inputs against the simulation to try to destabilize and stabilize the simulation, respectively. Results of the attack inputs and defense inputs may be simultaneously displayed on a plurality of terminals.

  • Publication number: 20060108406
    Abstract: A carton for containing a number of articles with each article having an article diameter. The carton may include a front wall, a pair of sidewalls, and an access panel positioned along the front wall and the pair of sidewalls. The access panel may include a height of less than about the article diameter along a portion of the front wall and along the pair of sidewalls.

  • Patent number: 3995081
    Abstract: Strong, lightweight structural shapes or structures adapted for anistropic load bearing useful as structural beams or stiffeners for other structures, e.g., aircraft and which prevent or have improved resistance to forces tending to peel apart the structures, i.e., incipient peel. The shapes are fabricated from plicated laminates of strips or sheets of resinous, filament reinforced, composite materials having high strength and low weight. Fabrication of the shapes is carried out in such manner that upon curing of the resin the resultant stiffener shapes are capable of distributing loading forces so as to reduce localization of stresses.
