Abstract: A glass sheet having asymmetric chemical strengthening is disclosed and described. The examples described herein are directed to a cover glass for an electronic device and other glass components that may be used as enclosure elements or may form an enclosure. Within the glass component, localized compressive stress regions may be formed on opposite sides of the glass component, which may help arrest or redirect propagating cracks or defects in the glass. The opposing compressive stress regions may also help maintain the overall flatness of the component while increasing strength and/or impact resistance of the component.

Abstract: A radiator joint is provided that include a first component, a second component and a weld seam, that together define a bird beak joint. The first component has generally circular cross-sectional profile. At an end of the first body there is a bird beak cut section that forms a first mating surface. The second component can function as a manifold. It has a generally rectangular cross sectional profile and an aperture. The aperture extends along at least two sides of the second component. The weld seam is disposed at the first mating surface and couples the first component to the second component. A fluidic seal is thereby formed between the hollow interior and the exterior while defining a fluid flow path through the first and second components.

Abstract: A method for treating pronator syndrome involves selecting an arm and positioning it with the forearm perpendicular to the upper arm. The hand of the arm is engaged with a grip located inside a bisected working circle, which has an outer perimeter consisting of four quadrants. The fourth quadrant is elliptical and asymmetrical to the others. The grip is designed for hand engagement and includes two d-shaped slots. A resistance band is attached to the body, with one end in the groove, creating tension when used. To exercise the arm, the body is rotated in one direction to increase tension on the band. Releasing tension is achieved by rotating the body in the opposite direction.

The stack of two or more lenses may have a modulation transfer function that exhibits a contrast value greater than 75% for a spatial resolution of one line-pair per 0.0003 radians at 65 degrees angle of incidence. Heat and pressure may be applied to conform the stack of two or more lenses to the shape of the curved substrate.

Abstract: A rifle barrel is disclosed.

Abstract: A computing system is configured to generate a predictive model during training of a machine learning program using a training data set including a personal data set of a plurality of first users. The predictive model is configured to predict a first predicted assessment score at a first instance and a second predicted assessment score at a second instance with respect to a second user. The computing system determines whether the first predicted assessment score is different from the second predicted assessment score, and whether a first data entry of the personal data set of the second user changed between the first instance and the second instance. The computing system takes or recommends an action corresponding to a reversal in the change in the first data entry in order to alter the predicted assessment score of the second user.

Abstract: Technologies for transitioning between two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) display views for video conferencing are described herein. Video conferencing applications can have multiple display views for a user participating in a video conference. In certain situations a user may want to transition from a 2D display view of the video conference to a more immersive 3D display view. These transitions can be visually jarring and create an uncomfortable user experience. The transition from a 2D display view to a 3D display view can be improved by executing the transition to a 3D display view by manipulating visual properties of a virtual camera that is employed to generate the display views.
