Abstract: An absorbent article comprising an absorbent member positioned between a topsheet and a backsheet is provided. The absorbent member contains at least one layer that comprises porous superabsorbent particles, wherein the particles exhibit a relative humidity microclimate of about 67% or less after being exposed to an atmosphere having a temperature of about 23° C. and relative humidity of 80% for a time period of 20 minutes.

Abstract: A battery energy storage system is provided with: a charging/discharging control device capable of controlling charging/discharging of each of a plurality of electricity storage units in accordance with the supply and demand state of a power system; and a management device for adjusting the progression of deterioration of each of the electricity storage units by differentiating the charging/discharging amount of each of the electricity storage units and managing by differentiating the electricity storage units having a low degree of progression of deterioration from the electricity storage units having a high degree of progression deterioration.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and program for scheduling and controlling light towers in the field and receiving detailed reports relating to the same. The system for light tower control includes a telematics platform, a telematics device; and a light tower. The telematics platform is configured to transmit and receive a UDP message over a cellular network, wherein a transmitted UDP message contains a control signal for turning ON or OFF a light tower. The telematics device is configured to receive the UDP message and configure a voltage output of the telematics device based on the control signal. If the control signal is ON the voltage output of the telematics device is changed from Low to High and if the control signal is OFF the voltage output of the telematics device is changed from High to Low. A relay controller of the light tower turns the light tower ON if the output voltage of the telematics device is High and turns the light tower OFF if the output voltage of the telematics device is Low.
