Abstract: Systems and methods for sports data crowdsourcing and analytics is provided. In one embodiment, a method for at least one server for generating verified sports data of a sporting event is provided, the method comprising: receiving, at the server(s), first audio data captured by a microphone of a first client device; receiving, at the server(s), second audio data captured by a microphone of a second client device; synching the first audio data by arranging the first audio data based on at least one parameter; synching the second audio data by arranging the second audio data based on the at least one parameter; and generating the verified sports data by comparing, based on the at least one parameter, the first audio data and the second audio data to determine that a stat within the sporting event is verified.

Abstract: An environmental control system includes an air conditioning subsystem and a contaminant removal subsystem downstream of the environment to be conditioned. The contaminant removal subsystem includes: a first gas-liquid contactor-separator; a second gas-liquid contactor-separator; and a dehumidifier disposed either upstream of the first gas-liquid contactor-separator or downstream of the second gas-liquid contactor-separator.

Abstract: In some examples, a membrane module includes a fiber bundle. The fiber bundle includes a tubular first region and a tubular second region positioned around the tubular first region. One of the first or second regions includes hollow fibers oriented along an axis of the fiber bundle. Another of the first or second regions includes hollow fibers that are not colinear in a radial direction from the axis of the fiber bundle. A void fraction of the second region is different from a void fraction of the first region.

Abstract: An environmental control system includes an air conditioning subsystem and a contaminant removal subsystem downstream of the environment to be conditioned. The contaminant removal subsystem includes: a first gas-liquid contactor-separator; a second gas-liquid contactor-separator; and a dehumidifier disposed either upstream of the first gas-liquid contactor-separator or downstream of the second gas-liquid contactor-separator.

Abstract: An environmental control system includes an air conditioning subsystem and a contaminant removal subsystem downstream of the environment to be conditioned. The contaminant removal subsystem includes a first gas-liquid contactor-separator, a second gas-liquid contactor-separator, and a third gas-liquid contactor-separator. One of the first, the second, and the third gas-liquid contactor-separators is configured to receive used absorbent liquid having at least a first contaminant and discharge at least a first contaminant for recovery and reuse. Another of the first, the second and the third gas-liquid contactor-separators is configured to receive used absorbent liquid having at least a second contaminant and discharge at least the second contaminant for recovery and reuse.

Abstract: A pyrolysis reactor includes a chamber having an inactive section and an active section. The inactive section is configured to hold an inactive pre-form capable of adhering carbon. The active section is configured to hold an active pre-form capable of adhering carbon. An induction coil is outside of and operatively adjacent the active section, and wherein the active section is configured to pyrolyze a hydrocarbon.

Abstract: A gas distribution system may include a gas mass flow sensor with a resistive element configured to be heated, a thermally conductive shell surrounding the resistive element and heat-transfer control elements. The shell may include a leading surface oriented substantially orthogonal to a direction of gas flow. The heat-transfer control elements may be positioned to focus heat transfer from the resistive element through the leading surface of the shell so that a rate of heat transfer is independent from the variations in flow configuration.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of measuring the mass of a test specimen located in a microgravity environment. The test specimen is attached to the free end of a cantilevered spring for joint vibration. The natural frequency of vibration of the spring and specimen are measured. The spring constant is calculated and compared with known masses having the same frequency and spring constant. When a match is found, the mass of the test specimen is known.
