Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120072386Intelligent Plant Development Library Environment - An intelligent plant development library environment is presented. Contemplated environments comprise an EPC knowledge system capable of incorporating know-how of one or more construction firms in the form of assembly objects. Assembly objects represent construction components (e.g., bolts, cable trays, pipes, processing units, deliverables, etc.) that can be incorporated into a plant design. Assembly objects are stored in an assembly database and include available contexts considered relevant to the assembly objects. An inference engine is utilized to derive a specified context related to a plant design from one or more design tools. The inference engine applies rule sets to infer which assembly objects to instantiate as construction objects. The inference engine can further configure the design tools to incorporate the instantiated construction objects into a plant construction project model. Example rule sets include forward chaining rules, backward chaining rules, case-based reasoning rules, inductive reasoning rules, or abductive reasoning rules.03-22-2012

20130024235Conflicting Expert Systems - An expert system for providing optimized recommendations regarding a construction project is configured to generate conflicting optimization recommendations. Multiple expert system engines are implemented, where each engine provides one or more recommendations optimized in accordance with the priorities of a functional discipline. A conflict engine will identify conflicts between optimized recommendations and will package the conflicts into conflict objects that are presented to a conflict user interface for resolution. The user could resolve the conflicts him/herself, or could configure a cross-functional conflict object to resolve such conflicts based upon specified resolution criteria.01-24-2013

20120205487ROCKET GUIDANCE ADAPTER - A two-piece adapter for mounting a guidance system on unguided rockets allows for the existing designs and stores of unguided rockets to be retrofitted with guidance capability to provide a “guided rocket”. The adapter provides the external mounting features for mounting the guidance system and does so in a manner that transfers the steering loads of the guidance system to the rocket airframe and maintains the proper preloading and relationship of the fuze-to-warhead to detonate the warhead. The two-piece adapter comprises an inner adapter and an outer adapter. The inner adapter is secured between the fuze and warhead without requiring modifications of either part and provides the external mounting feature. The outer adapter is secured to the inner adapter and effectively moves the external mounting feature forward in front of the fuze where the guidance system is attached.08-16-2012

20100106361INTEGRATED BATTERY SERVICE SYSTEM - An integrated battery service system performs a plurality of services related to a battery, such as battery testing, battery charging, and the like. In addition, the integrated service system provides services to devices/components that are coupled to the battery, such as starters, alternators, etc. The integrated battery service system allows a user to abort a service and then resume the process from where the process was aborted. When conducting a service, the integrated battery service system determines a noise level caused by devices/components coupled to the battery. The integrated battery service system includes connectors configured to couple to a battery for receiving input signals, a processor coupled to the connectors, and a memory device coupled to the processor for storing control codes and operation history. The control codes, when executed by the processor, control the system to selectively abort a service in response to a user input. Since the memory stores operation histories, the processor may access the memory to retrieve data related to the aborted service and parameters obtained during the service before the process was aborted. The system reinstates the aborted service in response to another user input.04-29-2010
