An example method comprises: receiving reference emissions reports respectively associated with an organization, a basin, or a facility. Each reference emissions report indicates reference emissions data associated with the organization, the basin, or the facility over a predefined time period. Facility information indicating ownership history and/or placement history of facilities are also received.

Abstract: A tampon pledget having a unique forming process enables a reduction in material (by weight) without reducing gram per gram absorbency and optionally improving absorbency. The tampon pledget is formed by a unique carding, cross-lapping, and needle-punching process. A tampon applicator is formed having one or more components from at least one of a sustainable material and a compostable material. A tampon applicator plunger has at least one deformed end. A tampon applicator plunger has improved strength. A tampon assembly has an improved retention force.

Abstract: The current invention appropriately places stable implants into both sides of the shoulder joint to relieve pain and restore function in an arthritic shoulder, and does so in a manner that is arthroscopic, that does not violate the muscles about the shoulder or other vital structures, and that allows for immediate active or voluntary movement by the patient after surgery.

Abstract: A barge for renewable energy recourses is disclosed that comprises a plurality of horizontal axis wind turbines, a plurality of photovoltaic panels; and a plurality of sea-wave generators. The energy harvested by the renewable energy recourses is transformed to electrical energy and the electrical energy is transmitted to a grid onshore. A fleet of a plurality of barges located in deep waters is disclosed as well.

Abstract: A digital assistant supported on computing devices such as smartphones, tablet computers, personal computers (PCs), wearable devices, game consoles, smart home devices and the like is configured with a notification system that interfaces with applications and/or other systems and resources so that the digital assistant may collect notifications across a range of a user's devices. The digital assistant may utilize a natural language interface (which may cooperate with touch and gesture interfaces) and applies awareness of context and user's behaviors to intelligently present the collected notifications on a single device for the user as a native digital assistant user experience. The digital assistant can sort notifications, group notifications together, and interact with the user to answer questions, provide information and status, and enable the user to action on a notification from the collection.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a subsea structural connector (20) used in the offshore oil and gas industry for remotely joining elements of production and drilling vessel mooring systems and other subsea equipment. This invention relates to a connection mechanism that facilitates automatic latching of two components (1, 2) upon engagement, and then remotely controlled actuation of a device that secures the connection. Specifically, this invention relates to a securing mechanism that creates residual stress between the connected components (1, 2) such that the connector (20) can withstand high variable axial, shear, torsional and bending loads while minimizing the propensity for fatigue damage within the mechanism.

Abstract: An energy dissipater comprising a plurality of periodic hyperbolic surfaces, forming a continuous surface-structure, and enveloping contiguous tunnels there through.

Abstract: Allowing a user to interact with external computing logic through a standardized user interface visualization. For instance, a user might be able to initiate an action of the external computing logic by one click, by interfacing with a slider control, and so forth. As a result of such interaction, a notification generated by the corresponding logic may be presented to a user. The notification could be presented in the same user interface visualization that was interacted with to trigger the external computing logic, or may be presented in a separate visualization, or in both. The notification could also be sent to one or more external computing entities, for instance, an email system, a mobile device, and so forth.

Abstract: In embodiments of restricted execution modes, a mobile device can display a device lock screen on an integrated display device, and transition from the device lock screen to display a shared space user interface of a shared space. The transition to display the shared space user interface is without receiving a PIN code entered on the device lock screen. The mobile device implements a restricted execution service that is implemented to activate a restricted execution mode of the mobile device, and restrict access of a device application to device content while the restricted execution mode is activated. The restricted execution service can also allow a shared device application that is included in the shared space access to the device content while the restricted execution mode is activated.

Abstract: Apparatus for forming and fibrillating a molten polymeric film into nanofibers consisting of a plurality of two-phase flow spinning nozzles arranged in a substantially liner array each nozzle into nanofibers including one or more first input orifices for a process gas; one or more second input orifices for a polymer melt; a flow channel including two or more channel walls and a monotonically decreasing flow area wherein the process gas and polymer melt are combined into a stratified two phase flow with the polymer melt formed into a film on one or more of the channel walls; and one or more channel exit openings, each exit opening including an edge at which the process gas reaches sonic velocity or less and where the edge is configured to fibrillate the polymeric film into a stream of nanofibers.
