Abstract: A magnet wire including a conductive core of aluminum and carbon (e.g., carbon nanotubes). The magnet wire also includes an insulating layer on a surface of the conductive core. The insulating layer and the conductive core collectively form a fully insulated wire of a coil associated with a magnet. The magnet wire is configured to form, for example, the coil of the magnet for any of an electrical motor, an electrical generator, a transformer, an inductor, or a speaker.

Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to a glare shield designed to enhance the performance of vehicle camera systems, particularly those used in autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles. The glare shield features a textured surface composed of an array of micro-cones, or cone-shaped formations, which serve to scatter incident light in various directions, thereby reducing glare and improving camera vision. The micro-cones are optimized in size, angle, and orientation to minimize Total Hemispherical Reflectance (THR) and reflection penalty, enhancing the camera's ability to accurately interpret visual data. Additionally, the glare shield may include an electromechanical system for dynamic orientation adjustment in response to the position of external light sources, such as the sun. The manufacturing process of the glare shield utilizes a sintered tool steel insert, facilitating venting during molding and ensuring the precision of the cone-shaped texture.

Abstract: An automotive sun visor is disclosed with enhanced functionality and aesthetic appeal for vehicle interiors. The sun visor includes a frame with a rotary detent mechanism housed within a hinge tube, facilitating precise rotational movement and secure positioning. The frame is constructed from two heat-welded plastic frame halves, eliminating the need for an expanded polypropylene layer, and reducing thickness. The sun visor features an integrated mirror made from advanced materials such as gorilla glass or polycarbonate, and LED lamps for illumination. The rotary detent mechanism comprises a detent bar, detent springs, and a detent subframe, providing a clicking action for tactile feedback when the sun visor reaches a stowed position. The sun visor's design allows for axial adjustment and pivotal movement between stowed and operational positions, contributing to safety and comfort within the vehicle.

Abstract: A clip secures a component to a body part. The body part is made from a die-cast material and have a surface feature. The clip can include a first engagement feature configured to engage the component so as to secure the clip to the component and a second engagement feature configured to engage the surface feature of the body part. The clip remains engaged with the surface feature when the component is disengaged from the first engagement feature of the clip.

Abstract: A fastener configured for an electrical power distribution application is disclosed. The fastener includes an aluminum (Al) metal matrix composite (MMC) comprising nanoscale carbon particles in a concentration of 0.01 to 2 percent by weight (wt %). The nanoscale carbon particles are evenly distributed throughout an entirety of the MMC. The fastener is useful for connecting conductors such as busbars, wires, or cables. Also disclosed is a method for fabricating the aluminum MMC fastener comprising a solid-state deformation process.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer media are described for process-oriented application configuring using semantic mapping. Desired application processes can be identified by a user, and a semantic map can be generated linking the application processes, and components of processes, to corresponding configuration objects that are used to implement the processes in the application. Configuration objects can be settings, objects, functions, user interface features, executables, etc. The semantic map thus bridges between the process-oriented view of an application and the functional, implementation-oriented view of the application. The applications can then be configured using the configuration objects identified and linked by the semantic map.

Abstract: A busbar for electrical power distribution applications. The busbar includes an aluminum (Al) metal matrix composite (MMC) having nanoscale carbon particles (e.g., carbon nanotubes). In one example, the concentration of the nanoscale carbon particles is in a range of 0.01 to 2 percent weight (wt %). The nanoscale carbon particles are evenly distributed throughout an entirety of the Al-MMC.

Abstract: A busbar for electric power distribution comprises an aluminum (Al) alloy including scandium (Sc) and optionally including zirconium (Zr), erbium (Er), and/or ytterbium (Yb). In an example, the Sc and/or other elements are uniformly distributed throughout an entirety of the Al alloy. In an example, the Al is in a range of 98 to 99.99 percent by weight (wt %), and the scandium (Sc) is in a range of 0.01 to 0.5 wt %.

Abstract: An electronic assembly contains a circuit board having a current-conducting current path with two mutually spaced-apart current path ends that form an interruption point and a contact clip bridging the interruption point. The contact clip is manufactured without a preload, as a thermal fuse. The contact clip has a multiple bent, open clip loop and a contact limb making contact with both mutually spaced-apart current path ends using solder. The contact clip further has a fixing limb with a limb end seated in a circuit board opening. The limb end of the fixing limb is oversized relative to a circuit board opening, and a deformation being imparted to the contact clip, with an internal preload being generated.

Abstract: System, method, and computer program product embodiments enable configuration of a recommended data replication strategy for cloud based in-memory databases. An embodiment operates by requesting, by a first computing device, configuration of an on-demand cloud-based in-memory database, assessing, at the first computing device, database system components, and transmitting database system component information from the first computing device to a second computing device over a network. The first computing device receives from the second computing device an evaluation of the database system components and a recommended replication strategy responsive to a replication rule set. The database system components at the first computing device are then configured to use the recommended replication strategy.
