摘要:
Embodiments of the invention can provide systems and methods for providing an artificial grass system. One embodiment of the invention can provide an artificial grass system with a woven tubular-shaped fabric and tufted artificial turf yarn. For example, the woven tubular-shaped fabric can be made from at least two types of yarn with different shrink characteristics. Various embodiments of the invention can provide improved drainage, shock absorbency, load displacement, and dimensional stability characteristics for an artificial grass or turf system.

Provided herein is an automatic balancing device for counterbalancing an out-of-balance mass present in a rotating body. The automatic balancing device includes a chamber with an outer wall and an axis, first and second counterbalancing masses constrained to move freely in a circular path about the axis within the chamber, and a viscous fluid provided in the chamber so as to provide viscous coupling between the outer wall of the chamber and each of the counterbalancing masses. The counterbalancing masses may be arranged so that the first counterbalancing mass leads the second counterbalancing mass when the device is in use. A constraint may be provided with the device so as to prevent the first counterbalancing mass from leading the second counterbalancing mass by more than substantially 180°.

A magnet that includes a composite body and at least one reinforcing element. The reinforcing element is embedded within the body and increases the radial strength of the body. As a result, the magnet is able to rotate at higher speeds without fracturing. Additionally, methods of manufacturing the magnet are described.

A woven geosynthetic fabric is disclosed having a first weft yarn, a second weft yarn, and a stuffer pick woven in the weft direction of the fabric. A warp yarn interweaves the first and second weft yarns and the stuffer pick. The first weft yarn and the second weft yarn having different cross-sectional shapes. At least a portion of the fabric has a plurality of weft yarn sets with stuffer picks respectively disposed and woven between the weft yarn sets. Each weft yarn set has two first weft yarns and two second weft yarns. One of the two first weft yarns is adjacent one of the two second weft yarns and stacked on the other second weft yarn. The adjacent second weft yarn is stacked on the other first weft yarn.
摘要:
Described herein is a monolithic three-dimensional composite having a three-dimensional layer impregnated with an outer layer of polyurea, polyurethane, or a blend thereof. In one aspect the three-dimensional layer is woven fabric of a plain 4-layer tubular weave. Optionally, the outer layer has a three-dimensional relief to simulate three-dimensional structures.
摘要:
A reinforcing fabric for use in various applications, including retaining walls. Artificial grass is strategically provided on the fabric so that, when the fabric is positioned in the retaining wall installation, the artificial grass is at least visible on the vertical face of the wall.
