Abstract: Systems and methods determines that a trailer being towed by an autonomous electric tractor has its brakes applied when a motor current value of a drive motor of the autonomous electric tractor reaches or exceeds a first current threshold. a recover handler initiates a set of actions to recover resolve the trailer brake problem. A trailer lift status indicating whether a landing gear of the trailer is off the ground and a lift metric indicative of a height of the landing gear off the ground are determined by a perception module using one or more of images, point clouds, and radar data that include the trailer.

Abstract: Described herein are blends of a particular poly(aryl ether), a poly(alkylene terephthalate), and a nucleating agent. These blends are suitable for molding into electrical connectors which do not blister when subjected to vapor phase reflow and infrared reflow applications.

Abstract: Tough, stain-resistant microwave cookware can be fabricated from an injection-moldable thermoformable blend, comprising:A. a thermoformable interpolymer, comprising at least one unsaturated dicarboxylic acid compound polymerized with at least one vinyl monomer, in an amount between about 25 and about 75 weight % based on the weight of the unfilled blend, andB. at least one thermoformable polymer, selected from the group consisting of polycarbonates (including polyestercarbonates), poly(aryl ether sulfone) resins, polyarylates, and polyetherimides in an amount between about 75 and about 25 weight % based on the weight of the unfilled blend.
