The device includes a first compartment containing an isocyanate resin and a second compartment containing a polyol blend, which includes a polyol resin and an EMA additive. The composition includes a polyurethane spray foam and an EMA additive blended into the polyurethane spray foam.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods for performing enhanced resolution time-domain reflectometry are provided. Aspects include obtaining a plurality of waveforms by transmitting a first pulse on a transmission line, transmitting a second pulse on the transmission line, where the second pulse is transmitted after the first pulse by a delay, and capturing and measuring reflections of the transmitted pulses, wherein the delay corresponding to each of the plurality of waveforms is different. Aspects also include identifying a discontinuity of the transmission line based at least in part on the plurality of waveforms. Based on a determination that the transmission line includes the discontinuity, aspects include calculating third derivative curves for each of the plurality of waveforms and calculating a length of the discontinuity of the transmission line based on the third derivative curves. Aspects also include creating a notification indicating a location and the length of the discontinuity of the transmission line.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a computer-implemented method for autocorrelation based security monitoring and detection is disclosed. The computer-implemented method includes determining that input signal data transmitted to a white noise generator autocorrelates with itself at one or more time lags. The computer-implemented method further includes, responsive to determining that the input signal data transmitted to the white noise generator autocorrelates with itself at one or more time lags, determining whether an autocorrelation in the input signal data transmitted to the white noise generator matches one or more predetermined input signal data patterns associated with a known event or individual.

Abstract: A capacitor comprises a housing and a first stack of parallel plates within the housing. A first plate and a second plate in the first stack are capacitively coupled. The capacitor comprises a second stack of parallel plates within the housing. A third plate and a fourth plate in the stack are capacitively coupled. The capacitor also comprises a first input electrode and a second input electrode. The capacitor also comprises a first output electrode and a second output electrode on a side surface of the capacitor. The capacitor also comprises a dielectric material located between each plate in the first stack and the second stack. The first stack is not capacitively coupled with the second stack.

Abstract: A differential transmission line cable includes a notch filter to manage common-mode energy. The cable includes a narrow portion with two adjacent electrical conductors each having a narrow cross-sectional area and spaced at a narrow spacing. The cable also includes a wide portion longitudinally adjacent to the narrow portion. The wide portion includes the two adjacent electrical conductors each having a wide cross-sectional area greater than the narrow cross-sectional area and spaced at a wide spacing greater than the narrow spacing. The wide and narrow cross-sectional areas and spacings are specified so that the differential-mode impedance of the differential transmission line cable is uniform throughout both the narrow and wide portions and so that differences in the common-mode impedances of the narrow and wide portions create a notch filter to manage common-mode energy in the differential transmission line cable.
