Abstract: A high speed gear box including ribs, gears with holes, and oil channels configured to divide and distribute lubricating oil and contacting the lubricating oil with a high speed gear box housing wall. The high speed gear box housing and gear box cover have lubricating oil channel which supply lubricants to bearings. Output gears have holes which circulate oil throughout the high speed gear box. As lubricating oil is continuously circulated at locations which may create friction, the thermal energy, which is generated by high speed rotation of gears, shafts, and bearings is absorbed by cooling oil and transferred to housings, latent heat is dissipated to atmosphere through housing wall. This solves the overheating problem of electric high speed gear box.

Abstract: A method for operating an off-highway vehicle, comprising: receiving a torque request; rotating a first wheel at a first speed via a first side motor based on the torque request, wherein the first side motor is positioned coaxially with respect to the first wheel; and rotating a second wheel at a second speed via a second side motor based on the torque request, wherein the second side motor is positioned coaxially with respect to the second wheel.

Abstract: An electric driveline for an electric vehicle, comprising: a battery unit, a motor unit and a motor control unit which are fixed to a vehicle chassis. A drive axle unit supporting the vehicle chassis. The motor unit placed in a cradle member, and directly coupled to the drive axle unit by means of a coupling member. The electric driveline allowing for a transmission to be eliminated from vehicles, thereby simplifying the production process of the vehicles and reducing manufacturing costs of the vehicles.

Abstract: Various systems and methods use advisory metadata to track the status of file system objects. For example, one method can involve accessing a first item of advisory metadata, which is associated with a namespace-visible parent directory and identifies a first transaction and a first time, and accessing a second item of advisory metadata, which is also associated with the namespace-visible parent directory and identifies a second transaction and a second time. The namespace visible parent directory includes multiple namespace-hidden directories. The method can then select a time value of the advisory metadata for the namespace-visible parent directory, based upon the first item and the second item. The method can be performed by a computing device implementing a file system.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for mitigating write-back caching failures may include (1) detecting a failure that impairs at least one write-back cache that temporarily caches updates for individual files stored on a storage device, (2) identifying an attribute of an individual file stored on the storage device in response to the failure that impairs the write-back cache, (3) determining that at least a portion of the individual file is obsolete based at least in part on the attribute of the individual file, and then (4) performing at least one mitigating action with respect to the individual file to address the obsolete portion of the individual file. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: Caching metadata that identify hot blocks at a per local cache level are tracked. Tracked caching metadata are maintained so as to be persistent and shared across nodes of the cluster. Local caches are pre-warmed by using maintained caching metadata, responsive to detecting specific node level events. Such events can result in hot blocks being absent from a local cache, such as a failover between nodes or an unexpected failure local to a specific node. Another event example is the access of shared storage content, such as opening a file or mounting a file system by a specific node, in response to which the associated local cache can be pre-warmed using the tracked caching metadata for the specific file, or for each file of the file system. To pre-warm a local cache, hot blocks of stored content identified by corresponding caching metadata are loaded into the local cache.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for securing storage space may include 1) identifying a block map that indicates whether each of a plurality of blocks within a storage system is to return zeroed data in response to read operations, 2) identifying a read operation directed to a block of the storage system that includes non-zeroed data, 3) determining, in response to identifying the read operation, that the block map indicates that the block is to return zeroed data in response to the read operation, and 4) returning zeroed data in response to the read operation based on determining that the block map indicates that the block is to return zeroed data. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also described.

Abstract: A method for file lock recovery in a distributed computer system. The method includes executing a distributed computer system having a plurality of nodes comprising a cluster, and initiating a network file system server migration from one node of the cluster to a different node of the cluster. A migration count is incremented, wherein the migration count is stored at each of the nodes comprising the cluster. File lock services are paused at each of the nodes comprising the cluster. The network file system server migration is completed at the different node of the cluster. The migration count is then decremented in response to the completion. File lock services are then resumed at each of the nodes comprising cluster.
