Abstract: A method is presented for determining a reliability of a low-definition map to make the activation of at least one driving assistance system of an autonomous vehicle reliable when the autonomous vehicle is traveling on a road and wherein the vehicle comprises a navigation system and a perception system, the navigation system comprising the mapping and providing mapped data, the perception system providing measured data of the vehicle and/or the external environment of the vehicle, the method comprising the steps of: receiving mapped data; receiving measured data; determining a path of the road; calculating a road correlation value; calculating a sign correlation value; determining a reliability indicator, reliable or unreliable.

Abstract: Systems, processes and methods for controlling the irrigation of wastewater to a vegetated land are provided. The process can include determining a drained upper limit (DUL)-related criterion of an irrigation zone of the vegetated land, and obtaining a soil water tension measurement indicative of the irrigation status in the irrigation zone. The soil water tension measurement can then be compared to the DUL-related criterion, and when the soil water tension measurement of the irrigation zone is equal to or above the DUL-related criterion, an irrigation event characterized by a given volume of wastewater and a given irrigation duration can be initiated to irrigate the irrigation zone. The process can also include implementing a predetermined irrigation protocol in accordance with a set of predetermined parameters to irrigate the irrigation zone during an irrigation event, the set of predetermined parameters including for instance a DUL-related criterion for the irrigation zone.

Abstract: Low overbased alkaline earth metal alkylaryl sulfonate having a Total Base Number of from about 2 to about 30, a dialkylate content of 0% to about 25% and a monoalkylate content of about 75% to about 90% or more, wherein the alkylaryl moiety is alkyltoluene or alkylbenzene in which the alkyl group is a C15-C21 branched chain alkyl group derived from a propylene oligomer are useful as lubricating oil additives.

Abstract: A hydraulic oil, a predominant amount of an oil having a viscosity suitable for lubrication and from 0.03% to 0.06% of an agent improving filterability, corresponding to the formula R—Z. Z represents a polar group containing one or more substituents chosen from phosphoric esters, amides, ethers, amino alcohols, ethoxylated amines, and mixtures thereof. R represents a lipophilic chain having 14 to 24 carbon atoms.

Abstract: A hydraulic oil, a predominant amount of an oil having a viscosity suitable for lubrication, and from 0.03% to 0.06% of an agent improving filterability, corresponding to the formula R—Z. Z represents an ester of succinic acid comprising the reaction product of a succinic anhydride and an aliphatic polyhydric alcohol; or a succinimide comprising the reaction product of a succinic anhydride and a polyamine, the said reaction product being treated with an after-treatment agent. R represents a polyolefin having a molecular weight (Mn) of 500 to 2500 and an Mw/Mn ratio of 1 to 5.
