  • Patent number: 11930426
    Abstract: Examples of detecting whether a device meets an enrollment level are disclosed. In one case, a method for providing access to an application on a client device includes receiving a request to access an application from the client device, determining an enrollment level associated with the application, and determining that multi-factor authentication is required for access to the application on the client device based on the enrollment level associated with the application. The method can also include initiating multi-factor authentication on the client device before access to the application is permitted. The method can also include determining that multi-factor authentication is successful on the client device, transmitting a management component to the client device, and installing the management component on the client device for enrollment as a managed device with a management service.

  • Patent number: 11897346
    Abstract: A control system for an electric motor powered by a battery can be configured to receive an input instantaneous power or torque command corresponding to a commanded instantaneous power or torque. The control system can be configured to determine if the battery is capable of supplying the commanded instantaneous power or torque based on a state of charge (SOC) of the battery. The control system can be configured such that if the battery is capable of supplying the commanded instantaneous power or torque, the control system outputs the input instantaneous power or torque command, and such that if the battery is not capable of supplying the commanded instantaneous power or torque, the control system outputs an available maximum instantaneous power or torque command corresponding to an available maximum instantaneous power or torque that is less than the commanded instantaneous power or torque.

  • Patent number: 11881708
    Abstract: A system includes a generator. Three AC feeders are connected for feeding AC output from the generator. A rectifier is electrically connected to the three AC feeders and to a load via a first DC feeder and a second DC feeder. A first resistor connects between a first one of the DC feeders and ground. A first voltage sensor is operatively connected to detect voltage across the first resistor. A second resistor connects between the second DC feeder and ground. A second voltage sensor is operatively connected to detect voltage across the second resistor. A controller is configured to monitor for changes in common mode voltage based on the input from the first sensor and from the second sensor, and to determine presence of a fault if change in the common mode voltage exceeds a predetermined threshold.

  • Patent number: 11881797
    Abstract: A control system for an electric motor powered by a battery can be configured to receive an input power or torque command corresponding to a commanded power or torque. The control system can be configured to determine if the battery is capable of supplying the commanded power or torque over a time period based on a state of charge of the battery. The control system can be configured such that if the battery is capable of supplying the commanded power or torque over the time period, the control system outputs the input power or torque command, and if the battery is not capable of supplying the commanded power or torque over the time period, the control system outputs an available maximum power or torque command corresponding to an available maximum power or torque over the time period that is less than the commanded power or torque.

  • Publication number: 20230412260
    Abstract: Described herein are systems, methods, media, and devices for generating a satellite program for contacting satellites. In some embodiments, data including one or more targets for accessing a satellite constellation is obtained. Based on the data, a set of representations may be generated and candidate satellite constellation access programs may be determined based on the set of representations. For each program, a first score may be computed for each target to obtain a first set of scores, and a second score may be computed for each first score of the first set of scores to obtain a second set of scores. A satellite constellation access program may be selected from the candidate satellite access programs based on the second set of second scores.

  • Publication number: 20230334416
    Abstract: State of the art approaches being used for material replenishment planning have the disadvantage that they fall short in addressing the realities of evolving demand mixes and product utilization. The technologies leverage inflexible statistical models which are tightly coupled to specific industries, business processes, and deeper assumptions and therefore the model and any optimization produce results where the quality of results is heavily curtailed as real business processes deviate from the model assumptions and unforeseen scenarios arise the business and the broader ecosystem evolve. The method and system disclosed in the embodiments herein facilitate generating simulation of various material replenishment scenarios based on a user input. The method and system further generates one or more recommendations for material replenishment, based on an optimization process carried out.

  • Publication number: 20230310239
    Abstract: A patient support apparatus for removably retaining differently-sized portable electronic devices. The patient support apparatus comprises a base, a litter with a patient support deck for supporting the patient, and a side rail. The side rail is coupled to the litter and arranged for movement relative to the base. The side rail includes a caddy comprising a back, a first brace, and a second brace spaced from the first brace. The first brace extends laterally from the back and defines a first bottom support region. The second brace extends laterally from the back and defines a second bottom support region converging toward the first bottom support region to arrange the first and second bottom support regions to provide differing points of contact for retaining differently-sized portable electronic devices.
