Abstract: A battery structure for an electric vehicle includes first and second battery arrays. The first battery array includes first walls that are secured to each other to form a first unitized structure that is configured to house first battery cells. One first wall of the plurality of first walls extends in a transverse direction relative to a longitudinal direction of the electric vehicle. The second battery array is adjacent to the first battery array and includes second walls that are secured to each other to form a second unitized structure that is configured to house second battery cells. One second wall of the plurality of second walls is secured to the first wall of the first battery array and includes a first vertical portion, a second vertical portion spaced apart from the first vertical portion and connecting members connecting the first vertical portion and the second vertical portion.

Abstract: A traction battery pack venting system includes an enclosure assembly that provides an interior area; at least one rail assembly; and a shear plate beneath the enclosure. The at least one rail assembly is configured to communicate vent byproducts received from within the enclosure assembly to an area between the shear plate and the enclosure assembly.

Abstract: An emission treatment component support structure for an exhaust system, the support structure comprising: an insulating layer configured to support a substrate of the emission treatment component within a housing; and one or more resistive metal elements provided at least partially within the insulating layer.

Abstract: A histogram projection system which automatically optimizes, tracks changes in luminance and adjusts in real time the display of wide dynamic range imagery from IR cameras. It is computationally simpler than and offers markedly superior results to the standard available technique for this purpose, histogram equalization. The new technique assigns display dynamic range equally to each occupied intensity level in the raw data in contrast to the old procedure which assigns dynamic range in proportion to the number of pixels at given levels. Less shot noise and greater resolution of image detail for smaller objects or targets are the main improvements from the new algorithm. By the expedient of undersampling the image pixels in carrying out the histogram processing, one can in effect gradually increase the degree of dynamic range assigned to majority or background pixel levels, thereby enhancing the contrast in background regions when desired.
