Abstract: JSON Duality Views are object views that return JDV objects. JDV objects are virtual because they are not stored in a database as JSON objects. Rather, JDV objects are stored in shredded form across tables and table attributes (e.g. columns) and returned by a DBMS in response to database commands that request a JDV object from a JSON Duality View. Through JSON Duality Views, changes to the state of a JDV object may be specified at the level of a JDV object. JDV objects are updated in a database using optimistic lock.

Abstract: There is disclosed in an example, a gateway apparatus, including a hardware platform having a processor and a memory; a wireless network interface; and instructions encoded within the memory to instruct the processor to: provide a first virtual access point (VAP) secured by an IEEE 802.1x extensible authentication protocol (EAP) enterprise security method; provide a second VAP secured by a WiFi protected access pre-shared key (WPA-PSK) method; onboard a device, comprising determining whether the device supports the EAP method, and enrolling the device with the EAP method if the device supports the EAP method; and if the device does not support the EAP method, enrolling the device with the WPA-PSK method.

Abstract: An aftertreatment system for treating constituents of an exhaust gas produced by an engine, comprising: a housing; a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system disposed within the housing; a reductant injector disposed on a sidewall of the housing upstream of the SCR system and configured to insert a reductant into the exhaust gas; and a vortex generator disposed in the housing, the vortex generator comprising at least one deflector disposed on a surface within the housing, the at least one deflector configured to generate vortices in a portion of the exhaust gas flow flowing over the at least one deflector such that the portion of the exhaust gas remains attached to the surface at a downstream location of the surface.

Abstract: Metallic alloy development has been traditionally based on experimental or theoretical equilibrium phase diagrams and the like. The synthesis, processing and mechanical testing of small and large real samples are a challenging task requiring huge amount of effort in terms of time, money, resource, tedious testing and processing equipment and man-hour for which conventional Calphad calculations etc. alone do not help much in their local structure and related property prediction. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide simulation systems and methods for structure evolution and property prediction Molecular Dynamics (MD) combined with accelerated Monte Carlo techniques, wherein information on atomic elements and composition specific to alloy material is obtained to generate a MD potential file that is further used to generate a 3D structure file by executing a structure equilibration technique.

Abstract: Traditionally, new alloy development and processing involved various high-end expansive experiments, huge development time and cost of required man-hours. One of the major issues, which limits the ability for materials scientists to design metallic materials from atoms using Molecular Dynamics (MD), is the lack of accurate interatomic molecular dynamics potentials (MDPs). Suitable MDPs of desired alloy systems enable new alloy compositions and related properties, but however, this is very difficult and time-consuming process. The present disclosure enables developing molecular dynamics potential for new/traditional metallic alloys for their simulated structural, thermodynamic, and mechanical property predictions. Present disclosure provides systems and methods for generating MDP for multi-element alloy systems wherein both Body Centered Cubic (BCC) element type and/or a Face Centered Cubic (FCC) element type are combined.

Abstract: A decomposition reactor tube (DRT) for converting a reductant into ammonia includes an internal structure including a high-thermal conductivity material having a thermal conductivity greater than 20 W/(m·K), wherein the internal structure is at least one of the splash plate, a splash plate frame, a double wall, an outer wall, a mixer, and/or an exhaust assist port.

Abstract: Engineered structures include materials in certain arrangement and proportions to make a composite that provides desired properties to a structure. The mechanical and physical properties of the materials are measured through expensive and time consuming mechanical testing, and structural design is carried out using these properties thus warranting more time and cost spent on physical testing. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide multi-scale modeling and simulation techniques (MSMST) for design of composite materials with desired macro-scale properties wherein the (lower) MSMST are interconnected and each can pass on corresponding desired outputs to higher length-scales, which in turn evaluate macro-scale physical and mechanical properties/either to scale up the structure simulation, or to fine tune computational materials parameters thereby predicting behaviour of the structure based on determined properties of composite materials of the structure.
