Abstract: A gas turbine engine is disclosed which includes a bypass passage that in some embodiments are capable of being configured to act as a resonance space. The resonance space can be used to attenuate/accentuate/etc a noise produced elsewhere. The bypass passage can be configured in a number of ways to form the resonance space. For example, the space can have any variety of geometries, configurations, etc. In one non-limiting form the resonance space can attenuate a noise forward of the bypass duct. In another non-limiting form the resonance space can attenuate a noise aft of the bypass duct. Any number of variations is possible.

Abstract: A hub assembly includes a retainer housing, a retaining member, a biasing element, and an occlusion. The retainer housing includes a wheel mounting sleeve and a pin sleeve. The wheel mounting sleeve includes an axle bore configured to receive an axle. The pin sleeve has a first end and a second end. The pin sleeve includes a conduit between the first end and the second end. The first end is in fluid communication with the axle bore. The retaining member and the biasing element are in the conduit. The retaining member is configured to engage a groove in an axle. The biasing element is configured to bias the retaining member towards the axle bore. The occlusion is proximate to the second end of the pin sleeve. The occlusion is configured to inhibit the retaining member from exiting the conduit at least prior to coupling the hub assembly to a wheel.

Abstract: A system and process that establish a singular shared file system among devices in order to create a virtual representation of data on all of the devices via metadata indexing. This virtual representation of data means that the files are not actually stored on all devices and thus, with the exception of a single physical location, they do not need to take up any space (i.e. storage) on any additional device's hard drive. This allows for significant amounts of data to be virtually stored on each device, even if there is no physical storage room available for the data on each device. The system and process do not require data to be stored on a provider server, but instead stores only lightweight metadata, i.e., a small fraction of information about the files, online.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine system is disclosed which includes a core passage and a bypass passage which can be configured as a fan bypass duct or a third stream bypass duct. The core passage and bypass passage are routed to flow through a nozzle before exiting overboard an aircraft. The nozzle includes moveable members capable of changing a configuration of the nozzle. In one form the moveable members are capable of changing throat area for portions of the nozzle that receive working fluid from the core passage and the bypass passage. The bypass passage can include a branch. In one form the branch can include a heat exchanger. The bypass passage can also provide cooling to one or more portions of the nozzle, such as cooling to a deck of the nozzle.

Abstract: A system and method for registering stereoscopic images comprising: obtaining at least two sets of stereoscopic images, each one of the at least two sets including at least two images that are taken from different angles, determining at least two groups of images, each one of the groups including at least two images that are respective images of at least two of the sets or are derived therefrom. For each one of the groups, calculating a respective optimal entities list and stereo-matching at least two images, each one being or derived from different one of the at least two groups and same or different sets, using at least four optimal entities from each one of the optimal entities list, thereby giving rise to at least one pair of registered stereoscopic images.

Abstract: Using adaptions of option pricing techniques from the financial industry, the invention provides systems and methods for structured development of migration options in a legacy transactional enterprise. Components and risk factors of the legacy enterprise are identified and determined, as well as components and risk factors of unmet opportunities, and potential components for the enterprise. Migration options for the enterprise are developed using the components and risk factors.

Abstract: A unique tool, i.e., “VeriWeb”, is employed to automatically discover and systematically explore Web-site execution paths that can be followed by a user in a Web application. Unlike traditional spiders (or crawlers) that are limited to the exploration of static links, VeriWeb can navigate automatically through dynamic components of Web sites, including form submissions and execution of client-side scripts. Whenever examining a new Web page, the system determines all possible actions a user might perform—be it a link, via a button with a JavaScript handler, or via form submission—and can execute them in a systematic way. In order to systematically test different paths in a Web site, VeriWeb addresses two critical problems: systematic Web site exploration and automatically filling out forms.

Abstract: The embodiment of this athletic training device is for restricting the flexion of the elbow joint of the arm. A stretchable arm sleeve 16 is designed to encircle the arm 22 to be trained. A segment of loop Velcro 18 is adhered to the sleeve starting at the elbow joint 24 and extending toward the wrist on the dorsal surface of the lower arm 14. A separate 90 degree training block 10 made of polyethylene foam with hook Velcro 20 adhered is fastened to the loop Velcro 18 on the stretchable arm sleeve 16 to provide a physical barrier for flexing the elbow joint 24. The athlete can use the device for training in multiple sports. The most common use for the device is for limiting the elbow joint 24 angle to 90 degrees while training for basketball, golf and sprinting or running. The device does not restrict extension of the arm 22.

The retainer housing includes a wheel mounting sleeve and pin sleeve. The wheel mounting sleeve includes an axle bore configured to receive an axle and configured to be inserted within a sleeve bore of the wheel. The pin sleeve includes a first end fluidly communicating with the sleeve bore, a second end, and a conduit therebetween. The retaining member, disposed within the conduit, is configured to operatively engage an axle groove and includes a lip wider than a first end shoulder to prevent the retaining member from exiting the first end. The biasing element, disposed within the conduit, is configured to bias the retaining member towards the axle bore. The restraining element is configured to prevent the retaining member from exiting the second end.
