Abstract: A method for injecting data into a secure distributed computing system includes obtaining characteristics of an object via a secure operable connection from a smart silo. The method further includes verifying an identity of the smart silo based on credentials included in a message from the smart silo received via the secure operable connection. The methods further includes making a determination that the characteristics match a trigger condition of a smart contract. The method further includes executing the smart contract in response to the determination.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ultrasonic device for molding micro plastic parts, which combines: a) a mold cavity configured in a mold having an inlet for supplying plastic material to a chamber with an access opening and the chamber facing the cavity at a distal end in relation to its access opening; b) a cantilevered ultrasonic vibration element associated with an ultrasound generator, with an end portion or tip inserted tightly into the chamber through the access opening in an axially centered manner; c) a movement device for generating a relative movement between the end portion and the parts of the mold so that the end portion engages with the supplied plastic material and exerts a pressure of pre-determined magnitude thereon upon activation of the ultrasonic vibration element.

Abstract: Weld metals suitable for joining high strength, low alloy steels are provided. These weld metals have microstructures of acicular ferrite interspersed in a hard constituent, such as lath martensite, yield strengths of at least about 690 MPa (100 ksi), and DBTTs lower than about −50° C. (−58° F.) as measured by a Charpy energy versus temperature curve. These weld metals include about 0.04 wt % to about 0.08 wt % carbon; about 1.0 wt % to about 2.0 wt % manganese; about 0.2 wt % to about 0.7 wt % silicon; about 0.30 wt % to 0.80 wt % molybdenum; about 2.3 wt % to about 3.5 wt % nickel; about 0.0175 wt % to about 0.0400 wt % oxygen, and at least one additive selected from the group consisting of (i) up to about 0.04 wt % zirconium, and (ii) up to about 0.02 wt % titanium.
