Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a method for processing computer readable electronic files in an investigation in a computer system including a processor coupled to a display and an electronic storage device coupled to the processor. The method includes the processor accessing the electronic files and related data from a data source. The accessed files and related data are culled by the processor based on predetermined filter criteria. The processor stores the remaining files and related data in a third-party data repository and maps a set of electronic files and related data stored in the third-party data repository into a predetermined database schema. The mapped files and related data are analyzed by the processor, which applies a status decision on them. The analyzed electronic files and related data are submitted to a third-party e-discovery processing application based on the applied status decision.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to techniques for the inspection of joints and repairs in pipelines. In this scenario, the a method is provided for the inspection of joints in composite pipes and of composite repairs in metallic pipelines, comprising the steps of (i) emitting a series of acoustic wave pulses, at different frequencies, from a collar of acoustic transducers positioned at a predetermined distance from a joint or repair to be inspected, (ii) recording, in a time interval subsequent to the emission, echoes of wave displacements to the repair or joint in each of the transducers in the form of an A-Scan, and (iii) generating a flattened C-Scan image, through a CSM, for each frequency of pulse emission from the collar of acoustic transducers. The disclosure further provides a system for inspection of joints in composite pipes and of composite repairs in metallic pipelines associated with the provided method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sinter powder (SP) comprising a first polyamide component (PA1) and a second polyamide component (PA2), where the melting point of the second polyamide component (PA2) is higher than the melting point of the first polyamide component (PA1). The present invention further relates to a method of producing a shaped body by sintering the sinter powder (SP) or by an FFF (fused filament fabrication) method, and to a shaped body obtainable by the methods of the invention. The present invention further relates to a method of producing the sinter powder (SP).

Abstract: The present invention pertains to the technical field of pipe inspection, wherein instrumented pipe inspection tools (“pipeline inspection tools”—pigs) are used to verify the structural integrity of said pipes and describes a pipe inspection tool comprising a tool body and at least two articulated arms, wherein each articulated arm connects the tool body to a sensor and keeps said sensor in direct contact with the inner surface of a pipe.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a method for reporting or graphically representing communications in a computer system including at least one processor and at least one electronic storage device coupled to the at least one processor. The method includes storing computer readable electronic files of the communications in the at least one electronic storage device. The method further includes grouping a plurality of communication addresses by mapping the plurality of communication addresses associated with one or more communicators of the communications to a single communication party. The grouped plurality of communication addresses associated with the one or more communicators is represented as the single communication party. The method further includes reporting or graphically displaying the communications. The communications involving the grouped plurality of communication addresses are treated as involving the single communication party.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of (II) and an acceptable salt or hydrate thereof method of making same.

Abstract: The present invention is related to techniques for the inspection of joints and repairs in pipelines. In this scenario, the present invention provides a method for the inspection of joints in composite pipes and of composite repairs in metal pipelines, comprising the steps of (i) emitting a series of acoustic wave pulses, at different frequencies, from a collar of acoustic transducers (4) positioned at a predetermined distance from the joint (5) or repair (1) to be inspected, (ii) recording, during a time interval subsequent to the emission, the echoes of the wave displacements up to the repair or joint in each of the transducers of the collar of acoustic transducers (4) in the form of A-Scan, and (iii) generating a planarized C-Scan image, by means of the CSM method, for each pulse emission frequency from the collar of acoustic transducers (4).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for scheduling meetings for a business process. The systems and methods may dynamically create and send resource requests for meetings based on meeting criteria for the meeting. The systems and methods may identify available resources for a meeting based on attributes of the available resources matching the meeting criteria. The systems and methods may book a meeting with one or more available resources for the meeting.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of (II) and an acceptable salt or hydrate thereof method of making same.

Abstract: A process for preparation of a biologically active polymer comprising an acrolein derived segment and a polyalkylene glycol oligomer, the process comprising reacting polyalkylene glycol with acrolein in aqueous solution to form a copolymer of molecular weight no more than 1000 Daltons at a temperature of no more than 15° C.

Abstract: A turbine engine comprises a rotor shaft and a roller bearing supporting the shaft in rotation along an axis. The bearing comprises an inner ring, an outer ring, and rolling elements engaged between the inner and outer rings. The inner ring has a first axial end annular portion that is more exposed to heat during operation than a second axial end annular portion thereof. The turbine engine further comprises an oil injection device configured to supply the rolling elements with oil for lubrication of the latter. In order to homogenise the temperature of the inner ring, the latter comprises through-holes formed in the first axial end annular portion and distributed around the axis in order to allow for a circulation of oil coming from the oil injection device through the first axial end annular portion, thereby providing additional cooling to the first end annular portion.

Abstract: A medical device including an elongated tubular body having opposed proximal and distal end portions and defining a longitudinal axis, the elongated tubular body including an interior lumen extending therethrough, wherein an inner surface of the interior lumen includes at least one longitudinal depression formed therein, configured to provide pressure relief to accommodate movement of a medical device passing through the interior lumen.

Abstract: A toothbrush including a main body with a grip part as well as a brush head which forms a bristle field with a plurality of care bristles.

Abstract: The present invention provides a device for removing internal blockage materials (10) from a fluid-conveying line (3), said device comprising a cutting tool (9) activated by a rotary actuator (8), in which: the cutting tool (9) is positioned at the front of the device; and the cutting tool (9) comprises a diameter that is smaller than the internal diameter of the fluid-conveying line (3).
