Abstract: A light fixture includes a housing configured to be secured to a support surface, a plurality of light emitters supported on the housing, and a pair of panels supported on the housing. The housing includes a first end, a second end, a pair of sides extending between the first end and the second end, and an intermediate portion positioned between the pair of sides and oriented in a direction substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis. The housing includes a light emission opening through which light is directed. The panels are positioned on opposite sides of the intermediate portion from one another. Each of the panels is oriented in an inclined plane relative to the light emission opening. Each of the panels includes an outer edge positioned adjacent one of the sides of the housing, and an inner edge positioned adjacent the intermediate portion.

Abstract: A luminaire includes a housing having a pair of sides and a base extending between the sides. A lens is removably coupled to the housing and includes side portions. A mounting bracket is directly coupled to the base and includes a chamber, and a driver is coupled to the base and positioned within the chamber. A plurality of light emitters is coupled to a surface of the mounting bracket and in communication with the driver. A first portion includes a pocket and a protuberance positioned on one of a side portion of the lens and a side of the housing. A second portion includes a projection and a curved portion positioned on the other of the side portion of the lens and the side of the housing. The protuberance is engageable with the pocket to couple the lens to the housing.

Abstract: Transgenic silkworms comprising at least one nucleic acid encoding a chimeric silk polypeptide comprising one or more spider silk elasticity and strength motifs are disclosed. Expression cassettes comprising nucleic acids encoding a variety of chimeric spider silk polypeptides (Spider 2, Spider 4, Spider 6, Spider 8) are also disclosed. A piggyBac vector system is used to incorporate nucleic acids encoding chimeric spider silk polypeptides into the mutant silkworms to generate stable transgenic silkworms. Chimeric silk fibers having improved tensile strength and elasticity characteristics compared to native silkworm silk fibers are also provided. The transgenic silkworms greatly facilitate the commercial production of chimeric silk fibers suitable for use in a wide variety of medical and industrial applications.

Abstract: A transmission includes a housing defining a sealed interior and an input hub rotatably coupled to the housing. A gear set is disposed within the housing and configured for receiving a torque from an engine. The transmission further includes an isolator assembly and a bypass clutch, each disposed within the sealed interior of the housing. The isolator assembly is configured for selectively damping drivetrain inertia and/or vibration. The bypass clutch selectively engages and disengages the isolator assembly.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a vehicle engine and a transmission. A first electric motor is driveably connected to the transmission. A second electric motor is driveably connected to the vehicle engine. At least one selectively engagable clutch is located between the engine and the transmission to provide slip. The at least one clutch is engaged after the engine reaches a predetermined speed differential with the transmission.
