Abstract: A system and associated methods apply text and network analysis methods to process information from online university researcher profiles and community organization websites to identify topics and shared interests that the groups have in common. The system includes a search platform that enables users to enter their name, their organization name, or a research topic and identify entities with similar work topics of interest. The system packages entity information and shared topic information into edge lists for ease of recall, and facilitates communication between entities.

Abstract: A drive power transmission element in the form of a wheel adapted to be mounted on a non-rotatable axel where the wheel has a peripheral surface of a geometric envelope or cam profile developed on a mathematical formula being bounded and rectifiable and therefore having Defined length and area receiving a flexible power transmission element such as a rope of solid braided nylon cord locked by compression rather than friction operating circumferentially, where for example as a boat cleat or in radial operation, ideal in general for transmission of mechanical power directly applied to various mechanical linkages or where the operable dynamic forces of compression may operate as force fields or mechanical structures in lighter than air envelopes, parachutes, hydraulic nozzles, pumps, internal combustion engines, envelopes for jet engines, fiber optics, designs of optical lenses, and related applications to move or contain mass and energy over distance.
