  • Publication number: 20230302737
    Abstract: According to examples, a processor may obtain a digital model of a screen including pores that is to be implemented in a formation of a wet part from a slurry. The processor may obtain a digital model of a feature to be added to the screen, in which the feature is to impart a detail onto the wet part during formation of the wet part and may incorporate the digital model of the feature with the digital model of the screen. The processor may also identify locations in the digital model of the feature that are in line with pores in the digital model of the screen and modify the digital model of the feature to add pores at the identified locations in the digital model of the feature to extend the pores in the digital model of the screen through the digital model of the feature.

  • Publication number: 20230302736
    Abstract: According to examples, a non-transitory computer-readable medium may have stored thereon instructions that may cause a processor to obtain a digital model of a transfer screen to be 3D fabricated. The processor may also determine placements of pores in the digital model, in which the transfer screen is to be mounted on a transfer mold via an attachment mechanism and to engage a surface of a wet part formed on a corresponding forming screen. The forming screen may have a first shape and the transfer screen may have a second shape that is complementary to the first shape, and the locations of the pores may be determined to allow liquid to be suctioned from the wet part when a vacuum pressure is applied to the transfer mold. The processor may further modify the digital model of the transfer screen to include the pores at the determined placements.

  • Patent number: 9858086
    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to loading boot data. In an embodiment, a device loads boot data from a first portion of a first non-volatile memory to complete a first booting of the device. The first portion of the first non-volatile memory is then released to allow the device to overwrite the first portion. Next, the boot data is written to the first non-volatile memory before the device enters a reduced power state. The written boot data is to be loaded from the first non-volatile memory to complete a second booting of the device, if the second booting is initiated.

  • Patent number: 8553411
    Abstract: A computer chassis is provided. The computer chassis includes a housing having a first closed compartment with a first heat sink having a first heat dissipating surface formed on one side of the first closed compartment; and a second closed compartment having a second heat sink with a second heat dissipating surface formed on one side of the second closed compartment. The first and second compartments are substantially isolated from air flow within the housing. The housing, the first closed compartment and the second closed compartment are configured to define an air passage way between the housing, the first heat dissipating surface and the second heat dissipating surface. This air passage way forms a chimney effect that aids in cooling and promotes natural air convection.
