  • Publication number: 20240330110
    Abstract: A self-healing Hard Disk Drive (HDD) system includes a chassis housing an HDD device self-healing subsystem coupled to an HDD data storage system that includes a plurality of HDD data storage resources. The HDD device self-healing subsystem prevents data from being stored on a first HDD data storage resource that is included in the plurality of HDD data storage resources included in the HDD data storage system. When the HDD device self-healing subsystem determines that data storage operations using a second HDD data storage resource that is included in the plurality of HDD data storage resources will be subsequently unavailable, it remaps logical addresses associated with the second HDD data storage resource to the first HDD data storage resource, and provides the data that was stored using the second HDD data storage resource on the first HDD data storage resource.

  • Publication number: 20230205941
    Abstract: A method and system for trimming intersecting bodies of a geometric model in a computer-aided design environment is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes determining a plurality of bodies of the geometric model intersecting with each other. The method includes computing volume of one or more intersecting bodies in the geometric model to be trimmed from the geometric model. Also, the method includes determining a trim offset value for at least one intersecting body in the geometric model and recomputing the volume of the at least one intersecting body in the geometric model which is to be trimmed from the geometric model based on the trim offset value. Moreover, the method includes generating a modified geometric model by performing a trim operation on the volume of the one or more intersecting bodies of the geometric model.

  • Patent number: 10593003
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatuses for identifying a person of interest. An exemplary method may comprise storing external data received from a variety external sources into a parameterized table, creating a first set of category views on the parameterized table, creating a second set of category views based at least in part on data to be derived from a traveler's personal information to be received, receiving the traveler's personal information generated by an input device and determining whether the traveler is a person of interest by evaluating the personal information against one or more pre-defined profiles using the first and second sets of category views. Each of the one or more pre-defined profiles may comprise one or more rules and a threshold value for determining a likelihood for the traveler to be matched in each of the one or more pre-defined profiles.

  • Patent number: 8099955
    Abstract: The invention herein proposed describes a plant operated by the movement of floaters (A) connected to horizontal arms (B). These arms (B) move hydraulic pumps (C), which inject water into the hyperbaric chamber (E). This chamber (E) supplies water through an outflow control valve, to set in motion a conventional turbine (G) that connected to electric generator supplies electricity.

  • Patent number: 7509841
    Abstract: A fluid leak detection system mounts to a hose line segment of the type comprising at least an inner carcass and an outer containment carcass separated from the inner carcass by a collection space. The system includes a housing defined by sidewalls externally mountable to the hose line segment and having an internal housing chamber in fluid communication with the collection space. A system sensor casing mounts through a sensor housing sidewall and a plurality of alternatively configured sensor units are provided, each interchangeably coupling with the sensor casing. The sensor units detect the presence of fluid within the sensor housing and communicate the fluid status of the chamber for remote evaluation.
