  • Patent number: 10847975
    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques to evaluate power usage and characteristics on a power distribution system. The power distribution system may include local distribution systems as well as transmission systems. Additionally, this disclosure describes techniques to evaluate the effectiveness of Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR), for example, by using two variable characteristics to model a power load as a sum of a constant impedance load and a constant power load.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10241321
    Abstract: A reflector assembly includes a monolithic and adaptive reflector having a single and continuous reflecting surface and a focusing shape. The reflector assembly further includes a plurality of trusses for supporting the monolithic and adaptive reflector and a plurality of actuators, each of the plurality of actuators operatively connected to one of the plurality of trusses. Actuation of each of the plurality of actuators exerts a force which flexes at least a portion of the continuous reflecting surface.
