  • Patent number: 9747395
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a simulated loading method and an apparatus for moving load of a wheel axle in rail transportation. Multiple actuators are arranged right above rail sleepers along rail direction. The two continuous rails are connected to the rail sleepers via fastening systems and are cut into discrete independent rail segments right above the rail sleeper. The anti-drop member satisfies the applications of compression and uplift force of the actuator. The input load of each actuator is obtained from the load-time history of a single fastening system under moving load of a wheel axle according to a train-rail-subgrade theory model, and adjacent actuators perform dynamic excitation in turn with a same time interval to achieve simulation of moving load of a wheel axle under different speed. This invention provides a reliable and convenient loading platform for experimental study of the rail transportation.

  • Publication number: 20170185774
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to hooking a call for a malware monitoring logic into a JavaScript API engine interpreter. Upon JavaScript being placed into heap memory, the malware monitoring logic can initiate an evaluation or analysis of the heap spray to determine whether the JavaScript includes malware or other malicious agents prior to execution of the JavaScript shell code. Upon execution of the JavaScript within the sandbox, the malware monitoring logic can initiate monitoring of the JavaScript using malware analysis and/or execution profiling techniques. Inferences can be made of the presence of malware based on a start and end time of the JavaScript execution.

  • Publication number: 20170063298
    Abstract: A photovoltaic junction box is provided, including: a box body; a plurality of conduction terminals received in the box body; and at least one surface-mounted diode mounted on the plurality of conduction terminals. Each surface-mounted diode includes a flat body, at least one anode pin extending outwardly from an edge of the flat body, and a cathode pad located on a bottom of the flat body. The cathode pad of at least one surface-mounted diode mounted on a surface of the conduction terminal has a heat conduction angle ? more than 180 degrees and less than 360 degrees. Since the heat conduction angle is more than 180 degrees, the heat produced by the diode may be rapidly transferred to the conduction terminal in time to avoid deterioration or damage to the diode, improving the heat dissipation rate, and improving the current carrying capacity of the photovoltaic junction box.
