    Abstract: A system including a polymeric sheet. The polymeric sheet comprises a base sheet having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface and a multiplicity of spaced rails projecting from the first surface of the base sheet. The rails comprise a stem portion attached to and substantially upright from the first surface of the base sheet and a top portion on the distal end of the stem opposite the base sheet. The top portion comprises a first surface opposite the base sheet and a second surface facing the first surface of the base sheet. Additionally, the rails have a length greater than the width of the stems. The first surface of the base sheet, the second surface of the top portion and the surface of the stem defines a cavity with walls, and an adhesive coated on at least a portion of the cavity wall.

    Abstract: A method and associated system provides automated abrasive paint repair using automated abrasive paint repair devices that selectively sand, buff, and polish a substrate in response to received instructions generated by a controller. The controller receives coordinates of each identified defect in the substrate along with parameters describing characteristics of each defect, selects a sanding process, a buffing process, and/or a polishing process based on empirically derived rules established by skilled/expert human operators and the received parameters. The controller outputs instructions to cause the automated abrasive paint repair devices to execute the selected sanding process, buffing process, and/or polishing process using the received parameters. The empirically derived rules and parameters may be stored in a lookup table and/or updated by a machine learning module.

    Abstract: A cooling film for use in passively cooling an antenna includes an antisoiling layer secured to a first major surface of a reflective microporous layer. The reflective microporous layer comprises a first fluoropolymer and is diffusely reflective of electromagnetic radiation over a majority of wavelengths in the range of 400 to 2500 nanometers. The film can also include an infrared-absorptive layer secured to a second major surface of the film opposite the first major surface, and the infrared-absorptive layer is optionally metallized. The film is shaped into a self-supporting three-dimensional structure, such as fins, and a thermally conductive material is inside the structure and secured to a portion of the antenna, either the front side of the antenna for the non-metallized film or the back side of the antenna for the metallized film.

    Abstract: A system and method of simulating and optimizing industrial and other processes includes a computer that performs multivariate analysis of input variables and output variables to generate a data model of the operation of the process. For industrial applications, the input variables include process variables and the output variables include result variables from the operation of the industrial process. The data model determines contributions to changes in the output or result variables by the respective input or process variables and is provided to a predictive algorithm to identify parameter values for input or process variables expected to have a most significant impact on the output or result variables during performance of the process. The outputs of the predictive algorithm are parameter values that are provided as input or process variables to the industrial process for simulation or performance optimization or product recommendations/optimizations.

    Abstract: A system which is composed of a blower unit for a powered air purifying respirator and an electrically powered accessory. The blower unit has a blower device and a battery for powering the blower device. And the accessory is equipped with a power connector. The blower unit provides a power outlet for connection with the power connector. The power connector has a plug. Furthermore the power connector has an unplug lever for retracting the plug for unplugging. The unplug lever and the plug are connected by a pivot joint that forms a pivot axis. The unplug lever forms a handle arm and a counter arm that extend away from the pivot joint in opposite directions.
