Patent number: 9905117Abstract: A computer-implemented method executed by one or more computer servers includes receiving a notification from a communication device, determining whether one or more other communication devices are within a stationary geofence, and in response to the notification, sending an emergency alert to the other communication devices determined to be within the stationary geofence. The computer-implemented method may further include receiving an acknowledgement of the emergency alert from at least one of the other communication devices determined to be within the stationary geofence and/or sending data indicating an approximate location of the communication device and an associated tolerance of the approximate location. Other example computer-implemented methods, communication devices including software applications, and systems are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2015Date of Patent: February 27, 2018Assignee: Guard911 LLCInventors: Brian Lee Estes, Nathan John McVicker, Thomas Michel Swip, Jr., Michael Ray Snyders, Charlton Martin

Publication number: 20180016904Abstract: When cold and in the non-coated state, the aerodynamic profile is substantially identical to a nominal profile determined by the Cartesian coordinates X,Y, Zadim given in Table 1, in which the coordinate Zadim is the quotient D/H where D is the distance of the point under consideration from a first reference plane P0 situated at the base of the nominal profile, and H is the height of said profile measured from the first reference plane to a second reference plane P1. The measurements D and H are taken radially relative to the axis of the turbine, while the X coordinate is measured in the axial direction of the turbine.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2016Publication date: January 18, 2018Applicant: SAFRAN AIRCRAFT ENGINESInventors: Thomas Michel MERVANT, Laurent Patrick COUDERT, Jean-Armand Marc DESTOUCHES, Pascal Pierre ROUTIER

Publication number: 20170318444Abstract: A computer-implemented method executed by one or more computer servers includes receiving a notification from a first communication device. The notification indicates an armed intruder within a first stationary geofence. The method further includes determining whether one or more of a first plurality of communication devices are within a second stationary geofence different than the first stationary geofence, and in response to the notification, providing an emergency alert to the communication device(s) determined to be within the second stationary geofence. Other example computer-implemented methods, communication devices including software applications, and systems for notifying one or more LEOs of an armed intruder by a premises personnel associated with a premises are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2016Publication date: November 2, 2017Applicant: Guard 911, LLCInventors: Brian Lee Estes, Nathan John McVicker, Thomas Michel Swip, JR., Michael Ray Snyders

Publication number: 20160221402Abstract: A pneumatic vehicle tire includes a carcass extending between two bead cores. A belt structure is provided between the carcass and a tread strip which is connected with a pair of sidewalls. A runflat reinforcement is arranged at the inner side of each sidewall. A reinforcer is arranged within each bead portion of the tire. A bead filler extends from the bead ring along the reinforcer. To improve the runflat performance, handling and comfort properties of such a runflat tire, the reinforcer is arranged at the inner side of the bead filler. The reinforcer includes metal cords. The bead filler which extends beyond an end of the reinforcer, is made of a soft rubber compound with an IHRD harness lower than 80.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2016Publication date: August 4, 2016Applicant: Pirelli Tyre S.p.A.Inventors: Christof MUELHAUSE, Jochen Meuret, Thomas Michel, Stefan Seeger, Roland Muhn
