Abstract: Fluid channel sealing devices, frangible seals, fluid circuits, associated controllers and methods of using the same are provided for controlling fluid distribution using a reconfigurable blocking element having first and second portions to establish a first configuration free of any open channels such that fluid is prevented from flowing through the channel and a second configuration where the first and second portions are separated to establish an open channel and allow fluid to pass.

Abstract: Typically, the refueling process for a mobile hydrogen-powered machine involves driving or otherwise moving the machine to the location of a fixed, stationary hydrogen refueling station, and replenishing the hydrogen storage of the machine at the refueling station. Disclosed embodiments eliminate or reduce the need to transport hydrogen-powered machines to refueling stations. In particular, disclosed embodiments comprise mobile refueling stations that can be transported to remote work locations within an industrial environment. These mobile refueling stations may comprise their own power sources, and may also comprise a grounding rod for safety.

The systems, methods, and devices provide high-level guarantees of sterility and employ relatively inexpensive disposable components to provide pumping. Disclosed systems, methods, and devices and features thereof are adapted for point of use generation of medicament. In particular, admixing systems that employ independently-replaceable long term concentrate are disclosed. Features are directed to assurance of sterility and accurate admixing of water and concentrate to generate ready-to-use medicaments and other benefits.

Abstract: A document management system can include an artificial intelligence-based document manager that can perform one or more predictive operations based on characteristics of a user, a document, a user account, or historical document activity. For instance, the document management system can apply a machine-learning model to determine how long an expiring agreement document is likely to take to renegotiate and can prompt a user to begin the renegotiation process in advance. The document management system can detect a change to language in a particular clause type and can prompt a user to update other documents that include the clause type to include the change. The document management system can determine a type of a document being worked on and can identify one or more actions that a corresponding user may want to take using a machine-learning model trained on similar documents and similar users.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes an optical fiber cassette bidirectional mounting system having at least one bidirectional mounting ear configured to attach an optical fiber cassette to a structure. The bidirectional mounting ear can be configured to removably secure the optical fiber cassette to the structure in a forward or backward orientation without requiring additional tools or hardware. Certain implementations can include a fiber cassette extension arm system for safe storage of optical fiber cable and/or loose optical fiber. The system can include one or more of a rail clip configured to attach an optical fiber cassette to a structure, a radius limiter arm configured to removably attach to the rail clip, and an adjustable length radius limiter configured to removably attach to the radius limiter arm.

Abstract: A system for testing thermal runaway in a battery cell includes a first layer of first dielectric material at least in part wrapped around the battery cell, and a wire at least in part wrapped around the first layer of first dielectric material. The system further includes a second layer of second dielectric material at least in part wrapped around the wire, and a power source configured to supply power to the wire. In an example, the first layer of first dielectric material includes a polyimide film, and the second layer of second dielectric material includes mica. The system further includes a temperature sensor in contact with the first layer, the second layer, and/or the battery cell. A controller is to receive a temperature reading from the temperature sensor, and control a power supplied by the power source to the wire, based at least in part on the temperature reading.

Abstract: Multilayer optical films are described. In particular, multilayer optical films that include both birefringent high index layers and low index layers are disclosed. The low index layers can be a glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate. These optical films can be reflective polarizers and may be particularly suitable for automotive, architectural, and industrial applications.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for an automated system for analyzing damage and processing claims associated with an insured item, such as a vehicle. An enhanced claims processing server may analyze damage associated with the insured item using photos/video transmitted to the server from a user device (e.g., a mobile device). The mobile device may receive feedback from the server regarding the acceptability of submitted photos/video, and if the server determines that any of the submitted photos/video is unacceptable, the mobile device may capture additional photos/video until all of the data are deemed acceptable. To aid in damage analysis, the server may also interface with various internal and external databases storing reference images of undamaged items and cost estimate information for repairing previously analyzed damages to similar items. Further still, the server may generate a payment for compensating a claimant for repair of the insured item.
