Publication number: 20240054456Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium includes computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors of a first electronic device to perform operations including sending a request for asset data associated with an asset and receiving a set of telemetry data, a set of operational data, a set of inventory data, and a set of customer data associated with the asset. In the embodiment, the method includes selecting an asset model from a set of asset models associated with the asset based on the set of telemetry data, the set of operational data, the set of inventory data, and the set of customer data, wherein each asset model of the set of asset models corresponds to a particular task performed by the asset and generating a mapping hierarchy based on the selected asset model, wherein the mapping hierarchy includes a representation of a plant layout associated with the asset.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Abhishek Mehrotra, Steven P. Taylor, Braun C. Brennecke, Evan J. Kausalik, John D. Mayer, Tyler C. Tamburlin, Richard S. Turk, Timothy R. Brennan

Patent number: 11886576Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium may include computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause a processor to collect a portion of data associated with an asset from one or more sources based on a request received from a digital representation associated with the asset. The digital representation may perform a first set of simulations related to one or more operations of the asset over time. The processor may then generate a plurality of aligned datasets based the portion of the data, the one or more sources, and an identity of the asset. The processor may also aggregate the plurality of aligned datasets into a single dataset and transmit the single dataset to the digital representation to perform a second set of simulations based on the single dataset.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2020Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Abhishek Mehrotra, Steven P.

Publication number: 20230152789Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium includes instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include receiving a first request to access a digital representation that is assigned to an asset of an industrial automation system and includes code specific to operating, maintaining, or diagnosing the asset. The operations also include verifying a security access for the first request, providing the computing device access to the digital representation, receiving an input to modify the code from the computing device and, performing one or more simulations based on the modified code by utilizing the digital representation. Additionally, the operations include sending one or more simulation results to the computing device, receiving, from the computing device, a second request for pushing the modified code to the asset, and in response to receiving the second request, causing the modified code to be sent to the asset.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2023Publication date: May 18, 2023Inventors: Abhishek Mehrotra, Steven P.

Patent number: 11644815Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium includes instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors of a first electronic device to receive data generated by a plurality of components of an industrial automation system and characterize one or more portions of the data by applying metadata to the one or more portions of the data. The metadata enables a second electronic device receiving the data to determine one or more contexts of the one or more portions of the data. Furthermore, the computer-executable instructions, when executed, cause the one or more processors to rearrange an order of the one or more portions of the data and cause the characterized and rearranged data to be sent to the second electronic device.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2020Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Abhishek Mehrotra, Steven P.

Patent number: 4215995Abstract: Test means, method for making same and method for assaying the urea content of fluids such as blood serum, plasma, urine and spinal fluid are disclosed. The preferred method for making the test means involves a three stage application of reagents separated from each other on an acid modified carrier matrix. One reagent is o-phthalaldehyde and the other reagent is 3-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[h] quinoline, 3-acetoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinoline or their dihydrochloride salts. Stability of the reagents is achieved and precipitation of serum proteins is avoided. Moreover, the interfering color due to the presence of bilirubin is minimized when the urea content of serum is determined.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 1979Date of Patent: August 5, 1980Assignee: Miles Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Richard S.
