Abstract: An artificial intelligence enhanced method for optimizing operational deployment of field resources using network Voronoi Tessellations in combination with the aggregation and consideration of numerous data elements. Resources deployed in the field utilize modes of transportation that are represented by a network topology, which can be influenced by external sources of information that pertain to nodes in the network or nodes in other network topologies, which can be used by an artificial intelligence processor to develop optimized routes for deployed field resources in a continuous manner. The incorporation of these sources of information that can influence the topology of the network is utilized to determine the optimal deployment of field resources.

Abstract: A pull type swage fastener including a pin and a collar adapted to be swaged into a locking portion on the pin shank and with a removable mandrel being threadably securable in a pull cavity at the end of the pin shank and with the mandrel adapted to be gripped by an installation tool for applying a relative axial force between the pin and collar to swage the collar into the locking portion with the mandrel being releasable from the tool and removable from the pull cavity.

Abstract: A two piece blind fastener for securing a plurality of workpieces including a hollow sleeve having a straight shank with an enlarged sleeve head at one end and a pin having an enlarged pin head; the pin has a pin stop shoulder and a lock groove located near the pin stop shoulder; the pin head is adapted to engage the sleeve to form a bulb type blind head in response to a relative axial force applied between the pin and sleeve; the pin stop shoulder is adapted to engage a sleeve stop shoulder to direct the material of the sleeve stop shoulder substantially radially inwardly into the lock groove to lock the pin and sleeve together and to finally form a stop surface on the sleeve for stopping axial movement of the pin through the sleeve; in addition the pin has an expander portion adapted to expand the sleeve shank radially outwardly to fill the openings of the workpieces and with the expander portion having a grooved section with alternate relief grooves and expander segments with the relief grooves receiving e
