A second direct current is received at a negative bus of the split bus, where the second direct current originates from a second fuel cell segment. A third direct current is also received at the split bus such that a combined direct current is formed including the first direct current, the second direct current, and the third direct current. The third direct current originates from an alternative direct current (DC) source. The combined direct current is provided to an inverter such that an alternating current is generated for a load. | 01-10-2013 |
20140049206 | Fuel Cell System for Charging an Electric Vehicle - A method for charging electric vehicles includes receiving information regarding an electric vehicle. At least a portion of the information is received through a vehicle interface configured to place a battery of the electric vehicle into electrical communication with a fuel cell system. A charge is delivered from the fuel cell system to the battery of the electric vehicle through the vehicle interface without use of a direct current to alternating current (DC/AC) converter. The charge is delivered based at least in part on the information. | 02-20-2014 |

20130034221 | DETERMINING LOCAL TIME IN A LOCATION OF A TELEPHONE - In a method for placing a telephone call, a first telephone receives a request to call a second telephone. The first telephone retrieves a user preference for obtaining location information of the second telephone or of a user of the second telephone. The first telephone obtains the location information from one of a plurality of sources based at least in part on an order of priority of the sources defined by the user preference. The plurality of sources include a social network program. The first telephone determines a local time in a geographical location identified from the location information. The first telephone displays the local time. The first telephone prompts for a decision whether to place the call to the second telephone. | 02-07-2013 |
20130035076 | DETERMINING AN AVAILABILITY STATUS OF A CONTACT BEING CALLED - In a method for placing a telephone call, a telephone receives a request to call a contact. The telephone retrieves a user preference for obtaining an availability status of the contact. The telephone obtains the availability status of the contact from one of a plurality of sources based at least in part on an order of priority of the sources defined by the user preference. The sources include a social network program. The telephone displays the status of the contact. The telephone prompts for a decision whether to place the call to the contact. | 02-07-2013 |

20130172015 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOCATION BASED EVENT MANAGEMENT - A system and method for location based event management is disclosed for organizing content based on time, location, application, and relates this information to the user by linking an associated relevant content. This is accomplished by utilizing a time module, a people module, a location module, an applications module, a browser module, an event module, and a content module to filter and display associated content. Through these modules, an event list is updated with results based on time, location, and relevance to the user and location, thus prioritizing information in a unique and novel manner. | 07-04-2013 |

20120213658 | CERMET HIGH LEVEL WASTE FORMS - A system and method for stabilizing fission products in a cermet for long term storage. The method includes forming a metal oxide precipitate, combining the metal oxide precipitate with an undissolved solid, and densifying the combined metal oxide precipitate and the undissolved solid to provide a cermet having a ceramic dispersed phase and a metallic matrix phase, wherein the metallic matrix phase includes metallic content from the undissolved solid. The undissolved solid can include fission product metals from the reprocessing of irradiated nuclear fuel. The cermet waste loading can be greater than approximately 30 percent, reducing waste volume by 50 percent or more when compared to baseline glassified articles. | 08-23-2012 |
