Patent number: 12228333Abstract: While operating a compressor system equipped with compression train(s), condensate is collected from within stages of the compression train(s), and directed to a blowdown system. Gas from a later stage of the compression train is routed to the blowdown system and used to drive the condensate to a condensate destination at a pressure that avoids flashing of the condensate until it reaches the condensate destination. Inside the blowdown system the condensate is stored in a tank and directed to parallel piped vessels. Operation of the vessels includes (1) receiving the condensate, (2) pressurization with gas from a later stage of compression, (3) flowing the pressurized condensate from the vessel to the condensation destination, (4) depressurizing the vessel, and (5) repeating steps (1)-(4). A flow of condensate from the blowdown system is continuous by staggering the phases of operation between the two vessels.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: February 18, 2025Assignee: SAUDI ARABIAN OIL COMPANYInventors: Nisar Ahmad Ansari, Mohamed Soliman, Samusideen Adewale Salu, Talal Al-Zahrani

Publication number: 20240192377Abstract: A system and method are described for assessing accuracy of a virtual horizon generated by a vehicle-based lidar system as the vehicle traverses a route of travel. Travel route topology data is obtained by a vehicle vehicle-mounted global positioning system-assisted inertial measurement unit (GPS/IMU) data. A reference virtual horizon at points along the route of travel is obtained from the GPS/IMU data and is compared with the virtual horizon generated by the lidar system for the same points to assess the accuracy of the virtual horizon generated by the lidar system.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2022Publication date: June 13, 2024Inventors: Dominik Nuss, Masood Taheri, Amey Sutavani, Scott Walter, Scott Ryvola, Mohamed Ahmad, Flavian Pegado, Shubham C.

Patent number: 11214280Abstract: A method is disclosed for using an autonomous vehicle to teach a student how to drive. The method may include generating, by the autonomous vehicle during a training session, a plan for navigating a section of road. During the training session, the autonomous vehicle may receive control instructions from the student regarding how the student would like to navigate the section of road. If the autonomous vehicle determines that implementing the instructions would be safe and legal, it may implement those instructions. However, if the autonomous vehicle determines that implementing the instructions would not be safe and legal, it may execute the plan. During a training session, an autonomous vehicle may provide on a head-up display to the student certain visual feedback regarding a driving performance of the student.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2017Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Scott Vincent Myers, Parsa Mahmoudieh, Jinesh J. Jain, Connie Zeng, Maryam Moosaei, Mohamed Ahmad

Patent number: 11066169Abstract: A UAV includes a fork lift system and a length component. The forklift system includes one or more elongated members extending at least partially in a horizontal direction. The forklift system also includes an extension mechanism configured to selectively retract and extend the one or more elongated members relative to an opposing surface. For example, the elongated members may include the tines of the fork or supporting member of the forklift system. The length component is configured to control the extension mechanism to adjust a distance between the opposing surface and the one or more elongated members to accommodate a payload.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2016Date of Patent: July 20, 2021Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Mohamed Ahmad, Scott Vincent Myers

Publication number: 20190135215Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for detecting hazards in anticipation of opening vehicle doors. Vehicle sensors (e.g., rear viewing cameras) can be used to detect and classify traffic, for example, as pedestrians, bicyclists, skateboarders, roller skaters, wheel chair, etc., approaching on the side of a vehicle. When there is a possibility of a vehicle occupant opening a door into approaching traffic, a warning can be issued in the vehicle cabin to alert vehicle occupants of the approaching traffic. In one aspect, a vehicle prevents a door from opening if opening the door would likely cause an accident.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 26, 2018Publication date: May 9, 2019Inventors: Alexandru Mihai Gurghian, Scott Vincent Myers, Mohamed Ahmad, Lisa Scaria

Patent number: 10086830Abstract: Example accident attenuation systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a method determines a speed of a second vehicle approaching from behind a first vehicle and determines a distance between the first and second vehicles. The method also determines whether the second vehicle can stop before colliding with the first vehicle. If the second vehicle cannot stop before colliding with the first vehicle, the method takes action to attenuate the potential collision by applying full brake force, tightening seat belts, and/or turning the front wheels of the first vehicle to direct the first vehicle away from oncoming traffic.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2016Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Scott Vincent Myers, Alexandru Mihai Gurghian, Mohamed Ahmad, Nikhil Nagraj Rao
