    Abstract: Polymer blends include bio-based polymers or copolymers with post-consumer and/or post-industrial polymers or copolymers and a compatibilizer. Fibers may be prepared from the polymer blends. In addition, a life cycle analysis of the polymer blends may be superior in at least four of seven categories of the life cycle analysis relative to virgin polyamide 6.6. Methods of making the fibers from polymer blends are also described. The polymer blends are particularly useful in flooring applications, such as carpeting.

    Abstract: Connectors for joining adjacent modular floor covering units. Embodiments of the connectors include a film and an adhesive layer coated on one side of the film. To install tiles using the connectors, a first tile is placed on the floor and a connector is positioned so that the adhesive layer faces upward and does not contact the floor. The connector is typically positioned so that only a portion of the adhesive layer adheres to the underside of the tile, leaving the remainder of the connector extending from the underside of the tile. One or more tiles are then positioned adjacent the first tile so that a portion of the connector adheres to the adjacent tiles. In this way, the connectors span adjacent tile edges. The tiles are assembled on an underlying flooring surface without the need to attach them to the floor surface.

    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to collections of flooring tiles, such as carpet tiles, that can include (1) a first group of tiles that has a first uniform appearance, visual field, and/or pattern across the entire tile, (2) a second group of tiles that has a second uniform appearance, visual field and/or pattern across the entire tile, and (3) a third group of tiles that are divided into three portions: a first portion that bears the first visual field, a second portion that bears the second visual field, and a third portion generally interposed between the first portion and the second portion and that has an appearance different from both the first and the second visual field. Tiles from the collections can be installed to create a desired appearance on a floor.

    Abstract: A wireless load cell monitoring system and method may comprise a remote load cell assembly and a base station. Embodiments of the remote load cell assembly comprise a remote processor, a remote memory, a battery, a remote transceiver, an analog-to-digital converter, and a load cell. Embodiments of the base station comprise a base processor, a base memory, a base transceiver, and a digital-to-analog converter. Embodiments of the remote load cell assembly pair with the base station using a wireless communication protocol, read analog voltage data from the load cell, convert the load cell analog voltage data into digital load data, and transmit the digital load data to the base station. Embodiments of the base station convert the digital load data into analog voltage data and output the analog voltage data.

    Abstract: A system and method configured to measure applied force and pressure on a load cell. The system includes an axial force pressure transducer having a hollow cross section comprising at least two strain sensitive regions, and a plurality of strain sensors connected to the at least two strain sensitive regions, wherein applied force and pressure is calculated based on strain measurements using mathematical formulae. A method of calibration of the axial force pressure transducer using known applied force and pressure measurements to calculate a calibration matrix reflecting the strain sensitivities of the at least two strain sensitive regions.
