Publication number: 20240132051Abstract: In some implementations, a method may include obtaining target fault data indicating a preselected fault for a vehicle having a hydrogen source. In addition, the method may include obtaining vehicle fault data indicating a fault of the vehicle. The method may include identifying a match between the fault and the preselected fault. Moreover, the method may include purging, in response to the identifying the match, hydrogen from the hydrogen source so as to reduce consequences of a battery thermal event by reducing the likelihood of a hydrogen-fueled fire.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Max Donald Carruthers, Steven James Mclaren, Abdul Ishaq, Tarkan Yapici, Mehfoos Yacoob, Thomas Stewart, Jithin Benjamin, J.

Patent number: 11953862Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing an optimal control configuration for a material processing system are provided. In operation, a material processing engine accesses causal graph input data. Causal graph input data includes input data of a continuous flow process. Based on the causal graph and the input data, a causal graph that aligns with do-calculus manipulations—associated with determining identifiable causal relationships corresponding to input materials of the continuous flow process—is generated. The causal graph is parsed based on the do-calculus manipulations to determine valid conditioning sets associated with estimating a causal impact on an optimization target. Based on the valid conditioning sets, an optimal control configuration comprising optimal control variable values is generated.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: THE BOSTON CONSULTING GROUP, INC.Inventors: John Thomas Clark, Jr., Joakim Kalvenes, Jason Thomas Stewart, Rohin Wood

Patent number: 11926552Abstract: A glass substrate comprises: a first position, wherein a tensile stress of the glass substrate is insufficient to cause fragmentation of the glass substrate into small pieces upon fracture of the glass substrate; and a second position, wherein the glass substrate is bent relative to the first position, and wherein the tensile stress of the glass substrate is sufficient to cause fragmentation of the glass substrate into small pieces upon fracture of the glass substrate. The glass substrate can include a first surface and a second surface. In the first position, the first surface and the second surface of the glass substrate can be planar. In the second position, the first surface and the second surface of the glass substrate can be planar. The small pieces can be generally cubic. In the second position, the glass substrate can be bent uniaxially along a bend axis of the glass substrate.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2019Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: CORNING INCORPORATEDInventors: Jason Thomas Harris, Peter Joseph Lezzi, Ross Johnson Stewart
