    摘要: A windshield assembly comprises a support panel, a windshield, and a frame, surrounding the windshield. The frame comprises a frame inboard leg, which is in contact with an inboard windshield surface. A hinge pivotally couples a frame-inboard-leg top portion of the frame inboard leg to the support panel and has a pivot axis. A channel is provided in the support panel. At least a portion of the frame-inboard-leg bottom portion, at least a portion of the frame-inboard-leg first lateral portion, and at least a portion of the frame-inboard-leg second lateral portion are located in the channel. The channel comprises a channel base leg. A seal is located in the channel between the channel base leg and the frame inboard leg.

    摘要: Techniques for sending data over a computer network from an origination computer to a destination computer are presented. The techniques include: receiving a demand communication from the origination computer, where the demand communication specifies at least one network parameter; determining that a path through the network from the origination computer to the destination computer that complies with the at least one network parameter is not available; sending data from the origination computer to a node in the network over a path that complies with the at least one network parameter, where the node is not the destination computer; and storing the data at the node in persistent memory.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and apparatus for processing signals using a sensor arrays are disclosed. In one aspect, an apparatus comprising a sensor array and a computing device is provided. The computing device may comprise one or more processors configured to generate a data matrix based on one or more signals received at each of the plurality of sensor and to determine a covariance matrix based on the data matrix. The one or more processors may also be configured to decompose the covariance matrix into a matrix of eigenvalues and a matrix of eigenvectors and to determine a projected data matrix based on applying the data matrix to the eigenvector matrix. Further, the one or more processors may be configured to determine a denoised projected data matrix based on denoising the projected data matrix and to determine a denoised data matrix based on the denoised projected data matrix.

    摘要: A friction stir welding (FSW) tool includes a pin, a housing, and a shoulder. The pin is configured to extend through a joint line between edges of two work pieces. The pin rotates to perform a FSW process that welds the two work pieces together at the joint line. The housing is coupled to a distal end of the pin to enable rotation of the pin relative to the housing. The pin extends through a support surface of the housing. The support surface contacts respective inner surfaces of the work pieces during the FSW process. The shoulder surrounds the pin and is configured to be rotated during the FSW process. The shoulder contacts respective outer surfaces of the work pieces during the FSW process such that the work pieces are sandwiched between the shoulder and the support surface of the housing.

    摘要: Methods and systems for supporting and/or positioning mechanical components or tools, the methods and system employing work stands that have a moveable base, a vertical support member disposed on the moveable base, a support platform attached to an upper end of the vertical support member via a support coupling that permits independent rotational movement of the support platform, a plurality of extendable arms that are each pivotally coupled at a lower end to the vertical support member and pivotally coupled at an upper end to the support platform, and each extendable arm can be independently and controllably extended and retracted. The work stands further include a controller for controllably extending and retracting the extendable arms to position the support platform in a desired orientation, and a user input coupled to the controller and configured so that a user employing the controller can position the support platform in the desired orientation.

    摘要: An end effector, for adhesively attaching a first part to a second part, comprises a support, a first nozzle, movable relative to the support, and a second nozzle, movable relative to the support. The first nozzle comprises a first-nozzle-body outlet port and a first-nozzle separator plate. The second nozzle comprises a second-nozzle-body outlet port and a second-nozzle separator plate. The end effector additionally comprises a first ultrasonic-sensor roller that is rotatable relative to the support, translationally fixed relative to support, and located between the first nozzle and the second nozzle. The end effector also comprises a second ultrasonic-sensor roller that is rotatable relative to the support, translationally fixed relative to support, and located between the first ultrasonic-sensor roller and the second nozzle.
