  • Publication number: 20200239640
    Abstract: The present invention provides new impact protection materials and the method of making the same. More specifically, the impact protection materials are polymer-based shear-thickening composite comprising a non-shear-thickening polymer matrix material and one or more shear-thickening materials. Preferably, the non-shear-thickening polymer matrix material is in an amount from approximately 5 weight percent to approximately 90 weight percent with the balance being one or more shear-thickening materials. The first type of the one or more shear-thickening materials is sol-gel based shear-thickening material in which small inorganic particles are connected in a gel network; the second type is polymer-based shear-thickening material in which polymer chains form network. Compared to the existing shear-thickening materials, the present shear-thickening materials have different molecular structure and formulation and possess properties of good impact protection and good stability.

  • Publication number: 20200145478
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, electronic device and computer program product for handling congestion of data transmission. The method comprises determining whether congestion caused by a plurality of storage nodes occurs at a first port of a switch, the first port being connected to a first storage node, the plurality of storage nodes transmitting data to the first storage node via the first port of the switch. The method further comprises in response to determining that the congestion occurs at the first port, selecting at least a second storage node from the plurality of storage nodes. The method further comprises updating configuration of a data transmission path for the second storage node, such that the second storage node transmits data to the first storage node while bypassing the first port.

  • Patent number: 10594808
    Abstract: A social networking system presents a viewing user with a newsfeed of stories describing actions performed by other social networking system users. In particular, the social networking system provides a pre-fetched set of newsfeed stories to a user device of the viewing user and a presentation order for the stories. The social networking system does not “lock” the set of newsfeed stories or the presentation order. The user device locally stores the pre-fetched ranked set of newsfeed stories upon receipt. When the viewing user later requests presentation of newsfeed stories, the user device retrieves the set of newsfeed stories and presents, to the viewing user, stories from the set according to the presentation order. A request is also sent to the social networking system to “lock” the presented newsfeed stories and the order in which the newsfeed stories were presented.
