  • Patent number: 11408377
    Abstract: A method for non-destructively determining a mechanical property of a solid rocket motor propellant grain may comprise applying a force to a surface of the solid rocket motor propellant grain, wherein a deformation is formed on the surface of the solid rocket motor propellant grain in response to the applying, and calculating a value of the mechanical property of the solid rocket motor propellant grain based on the deformation. The force may be applied by moving a liquid into the perforation. This process may be performed over time to determine a lifespan of the propellant grain.

  • Publication number: 20220245729
    Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) may facilitate insurance-related tasks. UAVs may actively be dispatched to an area surrounding a property, and collect data related to property. A location for an inspection of a property to be conducted by a UAV may be received, and one or more images depicting a view of the location may be displayed via a user interface. Additionally, a geofence boundary may be determined based on an area corresponding to a property boundary, where the geofence boundary represents a geospatial boundary in which to limit flight of the UAV. Furthermore, a navigation route may be determined which corresponds to the geofence boundary for inspection of the property by the UAV, the navigation route having waypoints, each waypoint indicating a location for the UAV to obtain drone data. The UAV may be directed around the property using the determined navigation route.

  • Publication number: 20220245720
    Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) may facilitate the generation of a virtual reconstruction model of a vehicle collision. UAVs may collect data (including images) related to the vehicle collision, such as with the insured's permission, which may be received by an external computing device associated with the insurer and utilized to perform a photogrammetric analysis of the images to determine vehicle impact points, the road layout at the scene of the collision, the state of the traffic light at the scene of the collision, the speeds and directions of vehicles, etc. This data may be used to generate a virtual reconstruction model of the vehicle collision. An insurer may use the virtual reconstruction model to perform various insurance-related tasks, such as allocating fault to drivers or autonomous vehicles involved in the vehicle collision, and adjustment of insurance pricing based upon the fault allocation.

  • Publication number: 20220198340
    Abstract: A computing device selects new test configurations for testing software. Software under test is executed with first test configurations to generate a test result for each test configuration. Each test configuration includes a value for each test parameter where each test parameter is an input to the software under test. A predictive model is trained using each test configuration of the first test configurations in association with the test result generated for each test configuration based on an objective function value. The predictive model is executed with second test configurations to predict the test result for each test configuration of the second test configurations. Test configurations are selected from the second test configurations based on the predicted test results to define third test configurations. The software under test is executed with the defined third test configurations to generate the test result for each test configuration of the third test configurations.

  • Publication number: 20220183726
    Abstract: A screw driving instrument is provided with a stylet holder able to retain a head of a stylet at one of multiple discrete locations. A user may vary a distance that a point of the stylet extends from a distal end of the instrument by choosing which of the discrete locations to insert the stylet head into before coupling the stylet holder to the instrument. The instrument may include a ratcheting handle capable of rotation in one direction about a central axis of the instrument relative to other components of the instrument. The stylet holder may be engageable with the handle.

  • Publication number: 20220179989
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating multi-factor authentication for data security. In some embodiments, a computer system receives, from a user device, a database operation request that specifies a set of query data, where the computer system supports multiple different security levels requiring different subsets of a set of authentication factors supported by a known device of a user of the user device. Various devices may determine current contextual information for the database operation request, where the contextual information indicates the set of query data. In some embodiments, the computer system compares the current contextual information with prior contextual information for database requests and then selects a security level from the different security levels. The computer system then initiates verification of a subset of authentication factors corresponding to the selected security level.

  • Publication number: 20220148097
    Abstract: A system includes a processor and an interface coupled to the processor. The processor determines that a first user takes a first action, and determines to pair the first user and a second user. The processor pairs the first user and the second user for an interaction, where the interaction lasts for a first time period. The interface receives an indication of a preference of the first user for the second user at a second time. The second time is after the first time period.
