  • Patent number: 11481243
    Abstract: In an approach, a processor creates a local first Pod API object in a first lower Kubernetes cluster based on a first Pod API object in an upper Kubernetes cluster, where: the local first Pod API object includes internal and external network descriptions for a Pod described in the local first Pod API object, and the upper cluster manages the first and second lower Kubernetes cluster. A processor adds an annotation for the Pod to the local first Pod API object and the first Pod API object. A processor creates a local endpoint API object in the first lower cluster based on an endpoint API object in the upper cluster and annotations of Pods in the upper cluster. A processor redirects the first request to the endpoint of the second Pod described in the local endpoint API object.

  • Patent number: 11428554
    Abstract: An ultrasonic transducer employing a meta slab includes a piezoelectric body configured to generate elastic waves; a meta slab connected to the piezoelectric body and configured to induce elastic wave mode conversion resonance with respect to the elastic waves incident on the meta slab; and a wedge connected to the meta slab, attached to an external surface of a pipe, and configured to transmit the elastic waves having passed through the meta slab to the pipe. The meta slab includes an anisotropic medium and a thickness of the meta slab satisfies the equation as follows: d=m·nFS·?FS/4, d=m·nSS·?SS/4, nSS/2?nFS/2=odd. Thus, highly-efficient flow velocity measurement is possible.
